A few of them are really incredible though, like Soarin Over California and Spiderman: The Ride.

Still, an incredible, mind-blowing simulator is about as good as a fair to middling coaster.
still nothin beats coasters.
Nothing else simulates the weightlessness and the wind in your face like a coaster
I also used to get upset when they'd have a program on coasters and then near the end they'd present simulators as the next best thing to come. It just cannot replace the great outdoors.

people say that sfmm has no family rides. that because it isn't a family park. do u see that many famliy's there??? u mostly see thrill seekers and teenagers. i mean, im 13, and i go with my dad to sfmm, but he likes roller coasters just as much as i do. i think it would be cool if SFMM got a simulater, but i dought they ever will.
