October 10th, 2012 | EarthBound
CerealQueen sent this in recently:
In the October issue of Nintendo Power, (V. 283), a letter was written concerning Earthbound. The topic of discussion was, “What attractions would you want at a Nintendo theme park?” This letter was written and though it’s not much, it was still neat to see nonetheless
I actually resubscribed to Nintendo Power late last year for some reason, but now that it’s being shut down soon I haven’t had it in me to open this latest issue, which came in some sort of sealed bag with a letter from Reggie and Iwata Chris Slate. So I’m glad someone else noticed this for me 😛
Anyway, I think a good EarthBound theme park ride would be Tessie – it’s not too crazy and probably actually doable!

I see your Tessie ride and raise you a Saturn Valley. I’m pretty sure everybody would love it. Kiddies, grown ups, my sister… Though I have to wonder if they would have the resources to give everybody coffee and their own motivational speech.

How about a longer version of the museum ride from Mother 3? I would love to see something like that.

Sorry to be a nit-picker, but the letter wasn’t from Reggie and Iwata, it was Reggie and Chris Slate, a member of the Nintendo Power magazine.

I’d rather see the boat ride from Mother 3. It would be so awesome to see all the Mother 1/2 stuff in the background with Mother 3’s “Someone’s memories” playing in the background! 😀

@Blair13579: Thanks, I updated the post. I’ve misplaced my copy so I was going on memory. Which is full of black holes.

I was sort of disappointed when there wasn’t an Earthbound/Mother portion of Nintendoland.

If Earthbound is in an amusement park it needs a Sea of Eden water area or a battle simulation.

I think it would be cool if they had a general haunted house with various things from different Nintendo games, but then there would be a Giygas room as the finale!

I think the best Earthbound theme game would involved Brick Road/Dungeon Man. 4 player Miis would be running through the dungeon, solving puzzles, battling, ect and the 5th player with the Gamepad would either be Brick Road and be actively making changes to the dungeon to hinder the other players… Or the player would be Dungeon Man, walking around doing some sort of seperate challenge while everyone else is inside him.

^ That’s acually a pretty good idea and I’d recommend reading it.

It’s sad to see Nintendo Power leave.

- Nicho mania: So, which is worse? Death by Drago? or, death by point blank fire-bomb? Poor Hinawa doesnt deserve any of this.
If they make a sequel, I bet Earthbound gets an attraction.
They also left out pokemon, Ice climber, Fire Emblem, and Kirby.
