@GRW;
How's the scenery? Could use some pics.
For which? Diamond Heights or Electric Fields?

Cool beans. Talking of which, I'm working on converting Frightmare Hills into something quite Diamond Heights-esque. I'll upload it here once I'm done.

All I can hope is that it is good, or I will end up wasting $200 for one game, it better be better than the DS Thrillville.

Edit: The first released photo!


It looks like RCT3 except with lower graphics.

A 3DS...RCT?
One thing just went through my mind-

Needless to say, I'm buying it.

I will be likely getting it, but I hope the RCT4 game will be on PC.

Likewise. I'm already planning on getting a 3DS since Super Street Fighter IV and Ocarina of Time 3D came out on it, so if that's any good, it'll pretty much seal the deal for me.

I will likely just get the 3DS for this, the Pokemon Ruby and Saphire remakes when they are made, the Pokemon mystery Dungeons if they are released on the 3DS and Nintendogs.

Ruby and Sapphire remakes, eh? Hadn't known about those   =3

But yes, I'm very pleased to hear about it. I thought that the Theme Park remake for the DS was pretty good (Of the old DOS game by Bullfrog), so hopefully, this should be pretty awesome as well.

My only concern would be the controls, really-those will either make or break the game. With 3D graphics, you're going to need a bit of swivelling and zooming, so implementing that might be tricky whilst there's also path and ride-laying on the same screen to consider.
If they can do it right and build a game as solid as the PC versions around them though, I'm buying it for sure.

As long as it is not like the DS Thrillville I will be fine.

The only bad things about it being on a system rather than a PC is that you can't download other tracks, parks, CSO, CFR, CTR, have expansion packs or other stuff.

But by the looks it will be fun.

From what I seen in pics there are some new and cool rides.
What is cool

-Looping Starship Ride
-New Teacups
-Bigger Ferris Wheel
-Bigger Merry Go Round
-Ancient Temple looking slide.

Other than that I will wait till RCT4 for making Carnivals and Kirmes.

You could get Expansion Packs in theory, with the DSi shop and all. That might work. That, and Track Designs, Save Games and things could be distributed online, perhaps with something like the Mario Kart Channel, or Wi-Fi.
 
And yes, I saw a couple of those as well. From first impressions, and if they can get it right-

(Excuse the reaction, but it had to be done)
 
Talking of which, I wouldn't mind trying my hand at a Ponyville themed section of rides for younger visitors (or credit-grabbers) in one of my parks-I mean, I can imagine some rides themed to the Mane 6 already.

Or just make a big Roller Coaster and theme it after MLPFiM like I did in my Electric Fields park.  :trollface

But I plan on making a Steeplechase ride or Turbo Bikes with horse themed cars in the Diamond Heights park and theme it for that episode fall weather friends

Nah. I do think it could merit theming for a smaller coaster (I was thinking a custom-designed Family Woodie or Junior Coaster, meself), but a B&M is stretching it a little.
Not to say it's a bad thing for that particular purpose, but it just doesn't feel correct, having a massive great inverting coaster themed to ponies, if you know what I mean.
 
And that might be an idea- The Running of the Leaves, you could say. But the leaves themselves don't do the running ,that's left to my little ponies!  :trollface

Anyway, here's a new track design-

Pegasus, an attempt at a Family Woodie. Not one of my best-looking ones, but its stats are quite decent for what it is.

Is there an RCT .dat decompiler?

If so, I know the language it decompiles too and could make/edit rides for you guys.

Also, mis visaro quan 'Pegasus'
I do those awful YouTube videos.

Might be. I do recall hearing about one, so try shopping around and seeing what we can find. Then perhaps, if we can get theming items, an RCT2 Ponyville might be an interesting prospect.
 
Although...what does "Mis Visaro Quan" mean, if it's alright to ask?   =P
