Roller Coaster motion simulator

I saw one of these today in the Franklin Mills mall here in Philadelphia:http://www.ronbotics.com/coaster.htm

It's $3 a ride and holds two people. I watched one guy actually "ride" this... though he choose Iron Dragon... *yawn*. The video of riding the coaster was really good, though I wouldn't say the motion of the machine matched the coaster very well. I didn't feel like standing around long enough to see if any of the other sims were better.

Has anyone else seen these? For only $12,000 you can own one! The perfect toy to keep the coaster enthusiast happy during the winter. :)

I've ridden one of those simulators before and it wasn't very good,in fact it made me feel rather sick.Give me a good old real coaster any day.

Yeah but it doesn't look to me like it can go upside down.

Beer, my soon to be wife, coasters, and the FREEDOM OF SPEECH. Is this a great country or what!!

they have one in CNY at the Carousel Center's Kahunaville (soon to be DestiNY USA) and it is pretty good but it has all off the old rides. It would be perfect if it had MF because the "your riding it" effect is great.
