I lucked out and got to ride all 5 coasters on my recent visit on June 15, 2023. They were so fun! Sandy’s had an insane rattle in the back row that felt like a car crash lmao shell raiser is the much better ride in my opinion
I’d love to see the American Dream Nickelodeon Universe theme park get reworked and reimagined and expanded to be like the Mall of America’s Nickelodeon Universe theme park with lots more rides and attractions for families and thrill-seekers with a ton of rides for the family!
Yeah! I’ve said it since they opened. It needs dark themed rides and a log flume ride similar to MOA. It’s also missing a ride like FlyOver America like Disney has its ride called Soarin’ Around the World.
It costs as much for one day as a season pass for Six Flags but we still love Nickelodeon Universe and Dreamworks Waterpark. Especially when the weather is bad. Last year they had 50% off Black Friday tickets that were good for 4 months.
Last year during their spring break days (I think?) they were selling tickets for the amusement park for $35 per person. I went on a Wednesday with another person and I pretty much went on almost everything in under 2 hours. The park was completely dead minus the ride ops and group of kids that came in before I left.
I went to Nick Uni back in September '22 and all the coasters were open though TMNT went down at least twice and the drop tower didn't rotate either. My hotel had a discount code that was significant, 30% maybe. Yes, TMNT was unexpectedly rough for an indoor ride. It was a fun couple of hours before boarding a cruise ship but I really have no reason to go back.
I had an extremely lucky day there. Not only was everything open, but Sandy’s never went down. We got over 50 rides on Sandy’s alone. I agree with the ambience- pales in comparison to MN
I'd say they're worth it. For me, I could spend a full day at the DreamWorks Waterpark and then get a twilight ticket for Nickelodeon Universe because I could only do a few select rides at that park, and a few hours is all I would need to do that. If you have kids, though, they'll easily be able to spend the entire day there.
Sandy's is definitely fantastic if you are ever back there. Shellraiser was running when I was there but I avoided it because one of the track sections looked very shaky. The pricing is certainly an issue though. I went with my wife and young kids and paid something in the low to middle $300s total. It's just far easier to find great discounts on outdoor parks. I think I paid $24.95 for each of us at Lake Compounce and maybe $24.95 or $29.95 for each of us at Six Flags New England. We just went to Great Adventure for my birthday this past Saturday and tickets were $43/each through FunEx- although they are crazy with their $48(after tax) standard parking fee. That's around $120 less in 4 ticket prices than I paid for the 4 of us to go to Nickelodeon Universe. Great video!
When I was there in the beginning of Jan 2023 4/5 were open until later in the evening when Shredder finally opened up. Maybe due to staffing issues but I’m glad it did when it did cause I was dreading coming again just for the missing credit
Also, I went on August 1st or 2nd 2023... Everything was open (Shellraiser, Sandy's Bronco, Shredder, Slimestreak, Half-pipe) all the good/noteworthy coasters were all open and I really loved Sandy's Bronco and the spinning half pipe....both were amazing imo, love this place
Sandy's Bucking Bronco is DEFINITELY the best ride at Nickelodeon and same happened to me with the headache on TMNT Shellraiser! Got 2 rides and ended up with a migraine, made me dislike the coaster. Granted I had just finished up a week-long coaster trip which included two days at Hersheypark, Knoebels, Kennywood, Great Adventure, Dorney Park, Coney island & Several of the Jersey boardwalk parks (Wildwood, Castaway Cove, Casino Pier) So maybe my brain and body were just done😂 But I absolutely loved SBB, great little launch coaster. Plan on taking my nieces this winter
They charge that much to keep certain groups out.I know people don't want to say it but they price a certain part of the population out on purpose.Not to mention how expensive parking is.
Been to the waterpark last week. It’s not worth it unless you buy the fast pass which is an additional $50/pp otherwise you’ll be waiting in line for 30 min for each slide. With the fast pass you don’t have to wait at all. I went on a Saturday
I’d love to see a DreamWorks Theme Park at American Dream Meadowlands to complement and accompany the DreamWorks Water Park also at American Dream Meadowlands!
So you wanna know where is it? OK I’ll explain so yeah you guys have to pay and get two tickets I mean two tickets is pretty expensive but if you get only one, then it’s gonna be much much expensive so I I guess you guys have to take one but like cheaper And you guys have to take buses to buses like what I like as I said and you gotta arrive and it calls American dream. There is a waterpark called DreamWorks and another one called Nickelodeon universe. It’s a bunch of roller coasters, but some of them are terrifying. Some of them are nicer, so yeah I wonder and there’s a bunch of terrifying roller coasters, but I went on the roller coaster since my brothers are the craziest song going there.
The Dreamworks Water Park is underrated because there was an incident when a helicopter decorations fell from the ceiling to an end of a water slide injuring 4 People. A Review From Someone said “Due to the bad water condition I was sick and Throwing Up For 4 Months.” The Building Architecture Is Not Safe Due To The Hanging Decorations.
Even though when the parks first opened, the tickets were kind of expensive at $99. The prices have been going down in the years since they’ve opened. When I first went there in June of 2022, the ticket prices had dropped to $79, the next year however they had gone up to $89, but now it’s gone down again to $69.
Did they remove cars from Slime Streak? I swear when the park opened reviews talked about it having a long slow train and that looked way shorter than I remember, but I could be wrong.
When I went for the first time in 2019 on opening weekend all the rides were closed but an employee gave me a free ticket for another day that I went 2 days later and all the coasters and flat rides were open except Sandy’s But for Dreamworks i went for media day but half slides were closed and half were open.
I just wish they would spruce up the ceiling with lighter colors to resemble a sky. That stark white and grey just sucks and does zero to complement the bright and cheerful Nickelodeon colors of the floor and attractions.
For those who do not realize this. One important factor about this mall and why it has to be expensive. You would get the dregs of society and nothing but fights and shootings if this place was more affordable. Unfortunately it is very close to some of the most dangerous cities in NJ and NY.
Sandy's coaster was the WORST of them all. You fall, tumble in your seat during those inversions and it's the worst transition EVER on a ride. I'll take a Minderaser ANY DAY over that POS.
Well well well I found a third person that’s a hater stop being rude. I already told you like two persons and now you I had enough with this, so you wanna be rude too. I’m going to send you this like what a such a haters in here I don’t like I don’t like you guys. I only send people that are kind. You guys are not kind. You guys are literally being so so disrespectful. At least the mall is built so long ago but it doesn’t mean it’s old it means that you guys can just shop there and there’s also waterpark called DreamWorks and also a one amusement park is called Nickelodeon universe and there’s also a stretcher you should go there and you’re going to regret it what you just said no now you made me so angry🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🙄🙄😒😡🤬😤😞😏
OUCH, poor SpongeBob in the thumbnail. SpongeBob: Why are my eyes red? OUCH, MY EYES! Me: Ouch 😢. It reminds me of the episode where he got bubble soap in his eyes, funny, but sad 😂😢.
That mall was built on a unrestricted landfill from the 50s & 60s, Many people got sick while construction was going on. I'll never bring my family there! 🤮🤢
Well, OK so you don’t want to bring your family in here it’s so much fun you don’t even know that this is a park and a waterpark and it’s at mall too so you should mind your own business too. I said this to another person but when you say these ones, I’m gonna send you a dislike just because they sent Roller coaster waterpark doesn’t mean you have to bring your family in there it’s just fun I mean like if you don’t wanna bring your family here don’t don’t say this call me like you’re being so rude and don’t be rude to the mall. The mall is expensive to build. Do you not know that or what just write a roller coaster and then you’re gonna regret it what you said in this comment you literally making me sad because the mall is so nice, so can you just least my own business or what you literally being so so so rude I’m not being rude either but you’re being more more more rude than me. You’re making me so angry because you just said that by the way you guys just probably like pigs or something cause you really look like a owner of pigs I’m only saying that because you being rude to the mall.😤😤😤😤😤😤😡😡🤬🤬😒🙄🖕
All parks , theaters etc expensive these days offering even less. People need something more than just two fingers and a screen. If a Starbucks 8 dollars as well as a Big Mac the same. Is it really? People always complain. Looking for negative first. Society as a whole is miserable and pessimistic. Go back to their solitary lonely existence. It’s a mall with options. You don’t want to ride than don’t. Or stay home completely and just shop online. And eat with DoorDash. Geesh!
Channel name: park pro "Overly intense coasters are uncomfortable" Yeah... that's kind of part of the territory lol. Wonder why this is the first time I've stumbled across this channel. Don't buy guides from people trying to sell the best "Park strategies" lmfao
OK the mall is never gonna be abandoned the fourth person that’s being a hater of this well I will send. I will show you something so you thinking that it’s abandoned arcane hell hell no it’s not gonna be abandoned. It’s so much fun to shop in there how you gonna say that your little be so disrespectful and you’re being so rude and mean You if you don’t know then why you’re saying this at least at least I know so that’s what I’m saying this is not like like if I don’t know this place I wouldn’t say this, but you’re just being a hater that’s why I’m saying this you stupid 🖕
I feel like just adding some fake grass or trees around the main coaster would make it so much better
Or to any of the coasters
Its should have to themed to its name of Ninja Turtles

The park is definitely giving Amazon warehouse 😂
Yeah, I agree. I think I saw you there on Thursday but I never said anything
I went around the same time on the 8th and I totally agree! My friends had to drag me on to shellraiser but i did not regret it.
Same

i think the american dream mall has better roller coasters and more kiddie rides than moa
This could possibly happen in the future but it would have to be after the mall starts making a profit and the mall fills up most of its empty space.
Yes Me Too

Shellraiser is rough because it sat in the parking lot uncovered for 2 years before they finally put it together.
I'd say they're worth it. For me, I could spend a full day at the DreamWorks Waterpark and then get a twilight ticket for Nickelodeon Universe because I could only do a few select rides at that park, and a few hours is all I would need to do that.

Riding a roller coaster in doors feels really bizarre. But it's kind of awesome. I've only been to one park with a roof. The dome in Vegas.
When I was there in late 2022 all 5 roller coasters were open.
I don't think that is typical
I went yesterday and they were all open
Shellraiser is a Euro-Fighter not an Infinity Coaster

Dude parking is dirt cheap
I found the back a LOT smother than the front on shellraiser. I also got on every single coaster and most of the flats during 1 visit.
I definitely want to visit the Dreamworks waterpark. Looks awesome even considering pretty expensive price😅
Nah dude dont its a dumb of a waterpark. Theyre getting sued currently for injuries
Water park is mid af
Been to the waterpark last week. It’s not worth it unless you buy the fast pass which is an additional $50/pp otherwise you’ll be waiting in line for 30 min for each slide. With the fast pass you don’t have to wait at all. I went on a Saturday
i just got home from it, at one restaurant each cookie for a very small size is 7$

The water park slide that goes around was awesome
Is this the mall that Mr beast filmed
Shellraser is a Eurofighter not an infinity

I visited in late January too and shredder and Sandy’s were both closed very disappointinh
That intro never gets old!
You should also spend a couple hours at Big Snow.
Oh boy, that Shredder Coaster or other coaster just scared me when it went down backwards. I thought it was going to fall off the tracks 😢.
TMNT isn't an infinity coaster either, it's a Eurofighter (generally less smooth as far as I am aware)
I really enjoyed your video. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experience.
its nice that this park is now Pay Per Ride, but its still a Pay To Puke kind of place
Even though when the parks first opened, the tickets were kind of expensive at $99. The prices have been going down in the years since they’ve opened. When I first went there in June of 2022, the ticket prices had dropped to $79, the next year however they had gone up to $89, but now it’s gone down again to $69.
so is it worth it for $69? how about the water park and indoor ski? how much are they and are they worth it also?
Did they remove cars from Slime Streak? I swear when the park opened reviews talked about it having a long slow train and that looked way shorter than I remember, but I could be wrong.
This reminds me of a fix up the park scenario in Rollercoaster Tycoon.
The back row in shell raiser is better than the front
Fun fact, the original Nick Universe was designed by Knotts Berry Farm, the new one was not. :)
Looking at going 2/24/24. Price is now $50 per person. Thanks for the heads up about the Shredder ride, we'll be skipping that one.
When I went for the first time in 2019 on opening weekend all the rides were closed but an employee gave me a free ticket for another day that I went 2 days later and all the coasters and flat rides were open except Sandy’s But for Dreamworks i went for media day but half slides were closed and half were open.
Agreed about TMNT Shellraiser, it's really rough and was a huge disappointment.
Starting March 11th Nickelodeon Universe will require either an All-Access Pass or their Park Entry Pass to enter. No more free entry.
For NY you also have Six Flags Great Adventure and Coney Island. Great adventure is the best out of everything
Great Adventure is in New Jersey, not New York.
@@shainahullihen1159 yes but it’s only 1.5 hrs out of NY
@@shainahullihen1159american dream is in new jersey as well
I would say Coney Island & Kalahari are both better experiences overall for a similar price.
3:14 shellraiser is a euro fighter not an infinity coaster
See you at lost island for your ride on matugani!
you should go to the Efteling (the Netherlands) great theme park full of wonders!
How does parking work there? Do you have to pay for it or is it free?
Not free
At least American Dream Mall is a very fun boondoggle to visit!!!
they aren’t expensive bro, for 3 people it was only 170 dollars. 2 of them were all access and one was 18 points.
I just wish they would spruce up the ceiling with lighter colors to resemble a sky. That stark white and grey just sucks and does zero to complement the bright and cheerful Nickelodeon colors of the floor and attractions.
This is expensive? They don’t seem that bad to me. Remind me of 6 flags prices from years ago. And tbh it’s so close to nyc I have to try it lol
Try one in Minnesota
Can I donate?
The discount code isn’t working
I dropped the price of the guide, so it’s the same price now as it prior with using the discount code
Too concrete compared to
moa
Warehouse look.. not as many scenic overlooks
Need painted walls
For those who do not realize this. One important factor about this mall and why it has to be expensive. You would get the dregs of society and nothing but fights and shootings if this place was more affordable. Unfortunately it is very close to some of the most dangerous cities in NJ and NY.
