    I'm so obsessed with Chris's commitment to the bit, having a custom outfit for both fantasy springs and donkey kong country. Plus the bananas! Isn't fresh fruit like that expensive in Japan?

    • @tdrexplorer

    Definitely looks less interactive than the Mario part of super nintendo world but I love how they took their time to making an actual cranky kong animatronic this land looks amazing too!

    • @ninjaboy191
      @ninjaboy191 2 дня назад +6

      @napatboonsri8003 may sound crazy but I prefer it with less interactives. Mario part of the park is genuinely overwhelming and packed with so many lines for each interaction

    • @michaelw4767
      @michaelw4767 День назад +3

      There's actually a bunch of more interactive elements in the area that Chris wasn't able to show. I'm sure he'll be covering them in the coming months ;)

    • @tdrexplorer
      @tdrexplorer  День назад +4

      After doing it fully yesterday, there's a lot of hidden touch points you have to find along with collecting the K O N G letters. For a smaller area they packed a lot in here I think.

    We just got our time ticket at the kiosk in the park when it opened, no problem. The Express Passes are so expensive and cover so little, I'd rather pay for an extra day at the park really.

    Was super lucky and was able to ride the mine cart coaster during technical rehearsals last week! It was sooo much fun!
    Closest I can compare it to is Goofy’s Fly School - so it’s zippy with some fast semi-steep drops. And really excellent animatronics!

    • @tdrexplorer
      @tdrexplorer  День назад

      I'm glad you were able to ride! That's awesome. The animatronics in the ride made me so happy.

      @tdrexplorer  День назад

      I'm about 5'11" and I felt there was a lot of space. You have to try the test seat to be sure. Website says about 2 mins. www.usj.co.jp/web/en/us/attractions/donkey-kong-country-ride

    I’m glad to hear that it is more thrilling than you expected. I was worried that this ride would basically be universal Studios answer to seven dwarfs mine train, which is really really way too team. Well it sounds like maybe this could be more like Universal answer T Lakes under Mountain, which sounds much more exciting.

    • @tdrexplorer
      @tdrexplorer  День назад

      It's still family-friendly but there are a few drops that are more thrilling than I expected and a few moments of "OH THAT GOT ME". For a themed family-coaster I think it's great and the animatronics and tricks they do are super fun. I would do this attraction over Mario Kart and Yoshi, easily, over and over. I didn't care for getting sprayed with water, twice though.

    Somewhat sad that Yoshi is only such a footnote in the park. I'd be all for having a Yoshi's Island area on its own plus Yoshi would be adorable as a mascot. At least there are a bunch of cute Yoshi merch items so far.
    Also a bit baffled that the DK merch shop owned by Funky doesn't contain anything themed after the titular character. No Funky headband or sunglasses? Really?!
