Seems like a win. Pushing on all the memories of my generation which is in the "disposable income" stage and has kids (and grandkids in the not too distant future) who we would want to enjoy those experiences with.

Not quite sure of the overall scale, but this seems like either a smaller theme park with smaller rides or maybe a scaled up Dave and Busters with coasters. I'd like to see a planned map, etc., as 2 years for construction seems tight for a more advanced park.

From Google. This is the development of the property in Glendale, Arizona. Looks like it is somewhere between a Dave and Busters and a Fun Spot.
