Carnage Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Take out Dragon Fire and replace it with a B&M floorless. That's what I would like to see happen to the park. Not enough room. The spot Dragon Fire is on could be used for a family coaster, or a spinner. But a big floorless wouldn't fit there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollerC Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 I am curious to see now what CF's next step will be. Do they ignore Kings Island, Wonderland, Geagua Lake and Michigan's Adventure while continuing to pump money into Cedar Point? OR, do they evenly try to improve all the surrounding parks. Regardless, they are not going to want any of their parks to suffer because competition from within. On the other hand, every park could and probably will see a drop in new additions because...really...aside from a few parks....what competition do they have? Um, CF dosen't neglect parks like Paramount or Six Flags. All CF parks recieve something new in a two or three year period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blacknite2oo7 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Right On, but hey at least yall got new stuff like the Italian Job, but we (Carowinds) got used stuff, lets see BORG, water slides, and I beleve some of the "new" kiddie rides were used. Now Im not complaing because we did get Top Gun:The Jet Coaster back in 1999. but I dont the the BORG runs a lot of full days plus they took out the island, and gave us concret, YES!!!! great trade off. but anyways I personally cant wait to see whats in store for all the old Paramount Parks in the next few years. And I hope we all get something NEW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

307 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 There's an edit button you know. And for us enthusiasts, maybe Wonderland doesn't have the thrills that we'd like to see in other parks. But like Carnage [i think it was Carnage] said, the vast majority of Wonderland-goers have no clue that there are other parks in the world, or better coasters. Hell, a lot of people apparently don't even know about Darien Lake, and that's only about two hours away. If the park is constantly packed, makes a ton of money, and is generally enjoyed by the ever-growing GTA population, what motivation does Cedar Fair have for making any big investments in it? None! I've come to terms with it. I think that others need to, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kissorkill2night Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Meh, Ive been there before, wasnt really too impressed. The best ride is top gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollerC Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Also, CW has the second most coasters in the CF chain...Be happy that you have that many. We at GL haven't gotten a coaster since 2001 and that one was just taken away from us. Plus you have all of those flats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xX-Linde-Xx Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 ^^ Thats true too, People are complaining about wonderland but some of the other parks are being treated the same way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnage Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 ^ It's a very small minority that complains about Wonderland. It's a much different market up here. It's not like the Ohio market where people get really pissy if a new ride isn't put in every other year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snuggles Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Greedy bastards! My home park hasn't gotten a new ride since 1974! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats something new to me...I never noticed anyone around here getting pissy when CP took their 4 year break from coasters or when GL's last coaster was back in 2000.

But it sure seems like people in the major US markets start to complain if parks go untouched for a year or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekRx Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 I don't know if Ohio people get pissy when an Ohio park doesn't add a new coaster for 2 years, but I do know they get overly excited when one of their parks does get a new coaster, even if that new coaster is coming from another Ohio park.
