I'm certainly not on the fence anymore.
I bought the original Wii when it came out because it was an interesting and new concept.
I used it a bit because of the novelty. Then I stopped using it for months until I had the ability to soft mod it. After that it got a lot of use again.
The Wii U, I bought a little while after launch. I think it was mainly because I wanted to play the new Mario kart and Bros games. A couple of other games popped up that me and my mate played through, but it has now sat dormant for several months.
The Switch, I honestly forgot that existed until you made this post. This console and associated games hold extremely little interest for me and I can't say that I'd be bothered to pick one up at any point. I don't even have a desire to try one.

That would match up with the Hypercoaster Footbridge development permit they lodged a while back.
Possibly just a maintenance/evac path? Possible it is/was to join the previously planned "lakeside precinct"?

Just curious for those who are familiar with coaster construction, would a copter be required to carry/lift the tallest parts of the coaster into place or would a crane be used for those parts?
A crane would easily do it.
Worst case, there's always this
QuoteThe LTM 11200-9.1 is both the the strongest and tallest telescopic crane in the world, lifting up to 1200 tons (that's 12 adult Blue Whales). Its eight-part telescoping boom extends up to 100m (15m taller than the last record holder) and, with the addition of a lattice jib, has a maximum lift height of 192m, more than 50 storeys high!

I've been given a lot of info that I've been told not to share, but this was too good to pass up so I had to leak this info to you.
Hyper Coaster station theming and name revealed:
Yes, I did download and install RCT1 just for that. Yes, that is Forest Frontiers, and Yes, that is the Crazy Caterpillar

I love it because it's the last part of the park that caters to adults and still holds on to the LT theme. It's a shame the franchise has been on the out for so long. The revival was decent but didn't last long

Nothing in Australia has touched or come close to Space Probe 7s campaign.
Although for building hype and intrigue Bermuda was pretty good too.
Both way before social existed.
I I think Holiday World's campaign for their Wingrider coaster was pretty damn fine.
I don't think j was around then or if I was, I wasn't into parks. What made their campaigns so great?

No mention of Superman and the 010002 campaign?
Where would you grade that one @Skeeta
-
I hope that one day soon the park confirm the official colour name. Not the "it's close enough to pink/magenta/fuschia so we'll call it that" but the official track colour as designated by Mack. Even if that just ends up being "c1501", "exotic summer purple" or something like that.

Yeah reckon I might just have to agree to disagree there. Wonder Woman is really about as iconic as they come.
Fair enough and it seems you're right.
Quick bit of searching puts WW 4th behind Batman, Flash, & Superman on this list
http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-dc-comics-heroesand 5th behind Superman, Batman, Joker & Robin on this list
http://screenrant.com/most-recognizable-dc-characters-superheroes-villains/Obviously a lot more iconic and recognisable than I gave credit to.

Yeah.. better stick with Suicide Squad instead then huh? Or maybe something like Bizarro, a theme that nobody has heard of?
Meh.
I never said it was going to be themed to either of them.
15 minutes ago, joz said:I don't know if you can call Wonder Woman an uncertain theme though. Even if the movie was a dud it'd still be a safe theme. I've been saying since the start a big DC hero, either Wonder Woman or Flash would've been perfect, the fact that against the odds DC have turned out a good movie for a change doesn't change affect whether a character is timeless or not.
4 minutes ago, themagician said:Superman Escape opened just before the Superman Returns movie was released and those two things are incomparable. The movie wasn't that good, while the ride is fantastic. SDSC is a great ride and is based off the film, which wasn't that great. So whether the theme is WW or not, if the movie is or isn't good, it won't effect peoples perspective on how good a ride is.
I mean uncertain in the sense that things like Superman have been around forever (as has WW) however there's a lot more movies/TV shows and general knowledge in something like Flash or Batman than there is in WW.
(Not saying Flash or Batman is the theme, just using them as an example).

It would be a shame if MW didn't take advantage of the WW hype that is about to descend. 97% critic positive on Rotten Tomatoes, I'm at least feeling releaved that DC have FINALLY achieved a Masterpiece to challenge Marvel.
The hype train can derail pretty quickly.
MW may not want to attach an 'uncertain' theme to the best coaster in the southern hemisphere.

Why not the helix of the new coaster?
Because that's where Surfrider is going?

No Doomsday bands available, SE going down for extended maintenance. Could this mean DD is no longer a part of that area and is moving to the helix of SE after all? 😱😱

I'm hoping the new character relates to the coaster theme.
I'm really hoping, like I'm sure @Zanstabar would be, the parade and coaster are
All-Star
Alter Ego: Olivia Dawson
Occupation: Student, Adventurer (retired)
Known Relatives: Unnamed mother, Craig (brother)
First Appearance: JUSTICE LEAGUE ADVENTURES #13 (Jan 2003)
Base of Operations: Apex CityAll-Star joined the Justice League (animated style) as a temporary replacement for the Green Lantern John Stewart, utilizing the power of the "star-charm", an artifact belonging to the evil Weaponers of Qward. With youthful exuberance and the powers of flight, force blasts, and the ability to levitate objects, All-Star aided the JL against the Qwardians, Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy, Grodd, Chemo, a force of Bizarros patterned after the League, and climatically, Brainiac, who had mentally enslaved the Green Lantern Corps. After a crisis of confidence, All-Star saved the day... at the cost of her powers. Nevertheless, Batman himself assured Olivia that she is, and always will be, one of them. the world believes All-Star dead.

^but as Joz said, a new flat ride might be a better place to start, and wouldn't be much more expensive than moving Surfrider.
True. I don't really care what they put there, but I really hope we don't have to wait til 2019 to get something into the park......UNLESS it's a giant coaster covering the pirate ship, viper and water park land. Then I'll wait til 2019
@themagician - confirmed by anyone reputable or just another assumption being presented as fact by a poster on these forums?

Why give it to SW?
Because Sea World is severely lacking in the ride department at present. Coming in to winter, they have 1 dry adult ride and a perfect Surfrider sized space to fill.
-
While it's not perfect, I will say it's good they've tried and didn't just leave it as a blank green wall with an annual pass poster on it.
Plus, if this is all we have to complain about so far, they're doing pretty well.

And yet there's still plenty of people who pay parking notices issued by private carparks.

As a complete guess, I'd say not for a long time, but eventually it would be on the cards after a lot of legal and WHS paperwork gets completed.
