ridesimdude Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Well what I think they need is: 1- On-ride photos because it is a great way for them to earn extra money 2- Lots and lots of fast food stands! 3- Lots of little amusement games such as throwing a ball in a cup and winning a little toy 4- And obviously, a lot of rides!

ajfelice Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 In terms of roller coasters, each park needs "The Coaster."  "The Coaster" is a thrilling, visually imposing, unique, signature coaster only that park will have. For Example: Cedar Point: Millennium Force Kings Island: The Beast (Now you can argue Diamondback) Kings Dominion: Intimidator 305 Carowinds: Intimidator SFoT: New Texas Giant SFoG: Goliath SFGadv: El Toro Holiday World: The Voyage Knoebels: Phoenix Kennywood: Phantom's Revenge SFNE: Bizarro Canada's Wonderland: Behemoth/Leviathan Waldameer: Ravine Flyer II A Park with a Chance-Morgan Custom Hyper  These go against my unique rule, but are still signature rides: Giovanola Hypers: Titan and Goliath SFA and Darien Lake's (Superman): Ride of Steel hypers  Just to name a few Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 One thing that will certainly make a park more appealing to me is QBot/some sort of Fastpass system. It just makes a day at a park so much easier. Â dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanTheBooker Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Some will say Ferris Wheel... Â Some will say Flying Scooters.... Â Some will say wooden roller coaster... Â What do you say? Â Disclaimer: this is not a dreamer thread. Â Don't say B&M winged coaster... Â Don't say Intamin Blitz... Â Don't say Huss Giant Frisbee...

Hilltopper39 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Depends on what kind of park it is, and maybe this is the Disney dork inside me speaking, but for me a "real" park isn't really complete without a decent train ride of some sort.

VinTheAttendant Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Carousel  I'm going to go a little further here and say "Classic" carousel; one with an organ playing and hand-carved horses.  I also think parks can benefit greatly from kiddie coasters, and pretty much any other kind of ride that families can enjoy together.

dannyboy13 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 For me, it's a wood coaster. Smallish height requirement (48 inches or so) allows these type of coaster to be many kids first "real" coaster experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
