Isn't six flaggs trying to sell a bunch of their parks right now?

Lets see I already have a wii..and THEY CLOSED SIX FLAGS ASTROWORLD DOWN IN HOUSTON about two years ago...So now its just a lot...o yea and they closed the water park with it....One of the largest cities with no theme park...thank goodness for video games lol

Maybe this will lead to people in Mario and Yoshi costumes! Then they can fight the Warner Bros. characters! TAZ in SSB Brawl!!

Seriously though, could this lead to Nintendo themed rides? That would be awesome!

that must make bill gates 11% in six flags stock feel good.

#3, Taz would be sweet, but how about Batman?

Batman? WB? This means we're *that* much closer to a BANANA SPLITS game!!! I'm hoping for a Mario Kart-esq romp around the park in Banana Buggies.

They've done this before. I believe one of the first time I ever played a Super NES was at Six Flags. I distinctly remember they had a couple of trailer-like deals set up with tons of those spanking-new 16 bit machines set up inside. I remember playing Act Raiser and SMW.

They should make a Nintendo Section of the park.

Great Adventure already has like 3 kiddie areas.

SEGA did this too.

The parks they're closing/selling are predominantly the water parks, which haven't been doing well. They also are selling a few of the theme parks that were not so hot (although I'm not sure why they're selling Elitch Gardens...it had potential, I assume it's because there wasn't much space to expand the park).

There's been a nintendo dome in montreal's park for the last 10-12 years...at least 60-70 televisions, a couple big screen and one giant screen. All nintendo consoles since snes made apperence there, plenty of games and video game contests where you can win games and consoles. It's awsome, but when you pay 40$ for a day, you don't spend your time with video games much...now if I did have a season pass, I would go there often! It's also a good place to talk to girls actually lol.

I think Disney is a much better match for Nintendo. This is a bit off topic but I for one would love to see a Nintendo themed park. like Disneyland you would have different areas of the park. Marioland, Hyrule (maybe even with Hyrule's castle in the middle?), Donkey Kong's jungle, Kirby land etc... Would be a lot better / more interesting than that craptastic California Adventure at least!

Dont compalin. Six Flags has to do this to fix the mess the last management left. This is a way to generate monye for that 2 billion in debt that they are in.

Also This is great because both companies are trying to market towards families so why not.

I'm willing to bet Six Flags Great Adventure gets some Wii's. They're not only th biggest Six Flags, but one of the biggest amusement parks of all time (in terms of the number of rides). I think it has the record Guiness World Record for most rides in and amusement park or something like that. Plus, they also have the tallest/fastest roller coaster on earth. I'd be very surprised if Great Adventure wasn't on that list.

I was hoping some theme park chain would pick up video game licenses as marketing gimmicks but curse six flags for doing it! They just sold our local park (Formerly Six Flags Darien Lake) however with that sale went the 7$ slices of pizza and 6$ coke's, oh and 10$ parking fee on top of already outrageous admission prices! I could also say some very nasty things about how the park was run under six flags such as not keeping up the rides, the rides looked very unsafe and very dirty and unkept. Plus they closed half our rides mid-august (peak season for this area) for an unknown reason, they didnt even tell us why the rides closed, and yet they still charged the same outrageous admission, food and parking prices while we have several other parks in the area that offer free parking and allow you to bring food into the park. I would never go to a six flags park even if the wii was there and playable, it would be pointless and very expensive to go there just to play the wii. You could probably BUY yourself your own Wii console and a couple of games for the price it would cost to take your family to six flags for a day or 2... parents think about that before taking your kids to six flags this summer!

I bet it's going to be in Great Adventure, simply because it's the best Six Flags out of all of them.

Jersey REPRESENT!!!

The best thing about Canada's Wonderland is the number of half-naked university girls who walk around in the water park. Thank you, Jesus.

I recall Sega having Saturn kiosks up at SF Great America back in the day. Only time I ever got hands-on with a Saturn, as far as I recall.

Yay! Valencia isn't so far from here! About an hour and half drive! So Wii and coasters in the same place!

The end of your post made me lol :)

I know Great Adventure had season passes that were close to the price of 2 day tickets. Plus they throw in some coupons for those $6 pizzas and a free friend admission before a certain date. I think the vouchers for the season passes are sold at pathmark supermarkets, as well as at the park itself. great Adventure also has a chester cheetos kid section, wasn't chester in his own sega game?

What I'd like to see is someone trying to play Wii on a rollercoaster.
Take that accelerometers!
