Toward the top of 2023, it was revealed {that a} Donkey Kong growth could be making its option to Super Nintendo World in Universal Studios Japan. Now, due to some eager investigation from CoasterTalk (thanks, Gizmodo), some extra data has been found concerning the location’s new rollercoaster trip.
The trip, which is predicated on the mine cart segments of traditional Donkey Kong Country video games, is designed to ship passengers flying into the air, simulating moments wherein Donkey Kong would leap over damaged rails in-game. To obtain this, the trip is operated by way of a hidden monitor, which holds the cart within the air to make it seem like it is working on a visual monitor.
So primarily, when the cart jumps over the damaged rails, it is nonetheless being held safe by way of the hidden monitor beneath. So no, there can be no free-falling in Super Nintendo World’s new trip; that is a lawsuit simply ready to occur.
CoasterTalk itself has created a digital render of how the trip would look primarily based on the tech concerned, which you’ll be able to see in additional element by way of the above video (thoughts the language barrier, although).
It seems fairly cool, and it is admittedly an effective way of precisely simulating the cart rides from the video games. Time will inform if it is on account of make its means over to the Hollywood website along with Osaka, because the park has one been open to the general public since February, 2023. Still, it is one thing we would definitely like to see.
