Photo TR: Wildwood in Winter (GNE painting)
YoshiFan replied to FlyerACE1's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Their SLC supposedly isn't that bad compared to other SLC's (the only SLC I have been on is Great Nor'Easter and I didn't find it that rough). Their boomerang is another story though, I found it very rough -
Polarium (Nintendo DS), gets impossible after a few minutes (it's a puzzle game)

I have the original game for NES and OoT for N64. The original is my favorite game. I tried to like OoT but I got really tired of the game about 1/2 - 2/3 of the way through the game because it was so tedious. Go into a temple, solve a puzzle that is fusturating, defeat the boss and repeat over and over again.

What is the worst Theme Park in the world?
YoshiFan replied to martinb's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Worst park I have been to is Clementon (I have seen parks that look worse but I don't want to judge a park unless I have been there). Very few rides and nothing that great (I was there before Tsunami). Gillian's Wonderland Pier is also bad. They got rid of their Schwarzkopf City Jet 400 and got a Wacky Worm (they were supposed to get a newer L&T Systems coaster but I don't know what happened with that), so their only coasters are the Wacky Worm and a Miner Mike kiddie coaster. They don't have that many adult rides and nothing really stands out at the park other than the log flume. -

"This is just something we don't need to nickel and dime people on." Funny he says that about a $3 upcharge when they raised parking to crazy prices and almost made it where you couldn't leave the park to save some money on food outside the park. -
An arcade with every version of Taiko Drum Master and some DDR machines as well.

Why do you support President Bush?
YoshiFan replied to smells_like_team_disney's topic in Random, Random, Random
I agree. What happened to going after and killing Osama. 4 1/2 years later and he's still running around. You don't even hear Bin Laden even being talked about anymore unless one of those tapes like the recent one shows up. -
I broke my toe 10 years ago. Luckily it wasn't a huge deal and there wasn't a cast or anything.

Theme Park Review POSTING RULES!
YoshiFan replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think it's cool that the rules are in place. I hate going to other message boards (mostly video game related) and seeing people type like they are using AIM as well as having horrible spelling. That is so true about IGN. I just look at the last few pages of posts and look for anything similar there to see if what I am going to post is a re-post or not because of how bad IGN's search is. It also doesn't help that you are only allowed to use the search on IGN if you are an Insider. -
Target is one of my favorite stores. They have awesome deals on clearance items like the Knex Rippin Rocket Coaster I picked up for $20 (regulary $80) a while ago, and I really like their store design (clean, bright, organized well).

The difference with sony Sony compared to Nintendo and the handhelds releasing updated versions of their consoles is with PS1 I think it was 5 years after the system was out and for PS2, it was 4 years so that doesn't seem as bad. I know even in the NES and SNES days, Nintendo re-designed their systems but they waited 5+ years for those as well (I think it was 8 years for the NES Toploader). I guess it wouldn't bother me so much if they spaced out these re-sdesigns more. Like an updated GBA in 2004 or 2005 and an updated DS in 1 1/2 - 2 years.

I agree. I am fed up with Nintendo and their re-designed systems. First they take the GBA and redesign it as the SP. Then they make another version as the Micro. That's 3 designs of the same system in less than 4 1/2 years! Now they take the DS and it's barely out for 14 months and already a re-design? It's like they want to screw over the early adopters, who I think help determine if a system is successful or not. What if everyone who bought a DS already had thought that they won't buy the system because they know a re-design will come out and will wait for that? I can't say I am surprised though. This is the same company that released 1/2 MB memory cards for Gamecube at launch for $14.99when the competition launched with 8MB cards for $34.99 (16 times the capacity for a little over twice the cost). It's also the same company that was charging $29.99 for all their Player's Choice games at one point when Sony and Microsoft have their budget line at $19.99 (at least Nintendo did lower their price to $19.99 as well).

Gillian's Funland Discussion Thread
YoshiFan replied to Homer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Normally I would be excited about a new park but considering it's from the Steel Pier owners, I am not that optimistic. For those who have never been to the new Steel Pier (new in that there was an old one that was around in the early part of the century to the 60's or 70's), it almost seems like a run down carnival more than an amusement pier. There are skill games all over before you even walk in with the game booth workers asking everyone walking by to play and the games are rigged (oval rim for a basketball game). It's very expensive at $6 for 1 ride on the Crazy Mouse and the rides don't look like they are in the best shape. And who can forget the incident last summer where they ran the log flume without water in the trough which caused 4 or 5 riders to be ejected from the ride. Even though I spend most of my summer less than 15 minutes from Steel Pier, I don't even have the credit there because I don't feel safe going on rides there. I'll stick with Gillian's Wonderland Pier and Playland (both in Ocean City) and Morey's Piers for my sea shore park trips. -
Hersheypark (HP) Discussion Thread

You're right, the cars don't have screens. I was there at the end of October and there were no screens in the cars. -

Is Williams Grove Really Dead?
YoshiFan replied to momo1tx's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think the raceway is staying open which is why they updated the website. Or it could be they didn't actually 100% decide to close yet. -
Pinfari 42 VS Vekoma SLC.
YoshiFan replied to krouvi's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I don't think either are that bad but I have only been on one of each (Python at Ocean City, NJ and Great Noreaster at Morey's). On the Pinfari, I don't think it's really rough if you sit in the last row. The OTSR's can sometimes hurt though. -
I hope it at least is there until the end of the year, I still want to try and get the credit before it leaves (since it seems doubtful it will be relocated). I know it will never happen for many reasons but it would be cool if they did put it in Sesame Place since it could be considered a good starter coater for someone wanting to try a coaster with inversions, and Sesame Place could use some more rides for days when it's too cold for the water slides/rides (which are the main attraction in the park)
