I wanted to quickly clear up because I don't think I made it clear in the video: This isn't "why we won't see more" because depending on Kondaa's success I actually do think we could see more. This video is just trying to explain why we didn't see many in the past

Kondaa didnt success yet, its not open it just has alot of hype maybe because it is a new intamin mega Kondaa was announced with a quadra-launch-blitz for france and it doesnt even gets a Quarter the hype kondaa gets Edit: and i guess it will be disappointing, not being able to fit the immense expectations

@@clubstep8244 the parc asterix blitz wont open until like 2030 at this point so maybe that’s why, and I’m a huge kondaa hyper but that park asterix blitz looks almost as good and on my channel I’ve hyped it up a lot, no one seems to hype up pantheon as much compared to iron gwazi or velocicoaster and the parc asterix blitz is very similar so that’s a weird thing, but I think pantheon will be the best new for 2021 coaster in America and I think the parc asterix blitz will be even better than pantheon

Forget GeForce, Hyperion is the best Intamin I've been one. It has an insane drop, ejector, floater, positive forces and snappy transitions. It doesn't technically go upside down but the turn with the airtime and then crazy laterals as it pulls you to the side and down is just insanely good

Hyperion was a letdown for me. I wasn't really expecting much. I was blown away by the first few elements - the first drop is insane, the camelback after that is incredible and the turnaround section is unique. But after that it does kinda.. nothing. Zarda was by far my highlight of energylandia.

I mean I don’t blame them, enthusiasts care about the ride experience, and intamin nails that, we just want the best rides possible, and also new intamin is pretty reliable, and also at least intamin tries, B&M wouldn’t even attempt half of things intamin does, intamin moves this industry forward, and they create all of these cool new concepts and everything and they do whatever u want them to, and that to me is better than a reliable company with basic rides that can’t do anything u want them to, from a ride experience perspective, B&M is 10 years behind everyone else and intamin is 10 years ahead of everyone else, have u ever heard the saying the more u fail the more u succeed, well that’s basically intamin, and it’s the same reason I love S&S and arrow too

8:00 I disagree, there’s hadn’t been a decline in B&M Hypers. They’re just getting taller. Remember, the B&M Gigas ARE Hyper coasters according to B&M. To get a B&M Giga, the park has to go to B&M and request a HYPER coaster that’s over 300 feet tall. B&M actually sold 7 Hypers in the 2010s, the same number that they sold in the 2000s. They also sold 2 in 2020 alone (Orion and Candymonium) with presumably more on the way. My theory for why there’s a discrepancy for the number of Hypers that B&M builds and the number of Megas/Gigas that Intamin builds is simply that Intamin’s model lineup is far more varied. Intamin has 32 different models available, while B&M only has 7. I suppose parks just tend to choose other models by Intamin, and even then many chains don’t even work with Intamin anymore in the first place.

The megacoaster nowadays is basically just a blitz but with a lifthill... Intamin doesn't care about not selling the lifthill models. Because it doesn't cost them any money. Track design and Train design is all the same. Same goes for the vekomas. They do not lose any money by not selling the model since it uses the exact same track, trains, etc.

I'm going to have to make a counterargument regarding terrain and hypercoasters. Granted, Dollywood is planning on installing a B&M, but they've got a _terrain_ hypercoaster planned that makes use of the mountain ridges in the area. You don't really need a lot of _flat_ land for a hyper, just a lot of land and some way of bringing the layout back to the station without relying on a launch.

I’m blessed to have an amazing intamin hyper at my home park even though the park is rather small, and I love it to death, but every time I go to the park it reminds me why more of these didn’t get built: 2 ppl were ejected, the ride overshoots the brake run every 30 minutes, the brakes won’t release like every 30 minutes, the ride can’t run in any wind or rain, a rider is too big and can’t ride on like literally every cycle, the wheels wear out super quick, the transfer tires never work, the ride had a ridiculously hard time running to trains, seatbelts had to be added, the height requirement had to be raised, a trim brake had to be added, the sensors never work, the ride is programmed super inefficiently and there is 10 miles of straight track (ok maybe not that one lol). Yes this ride is the original intamin mega coaster and is a prototype, but that is one big list of problems, luckily intamin has learned from most of these tho (especially the straight track), ppl say top thrill dragster or lightning rod is the most unreliable coaster out there, no no no ride of steel at Darien lake is more unreliable than both of those rides combined, half of the days it never even opens, u could make a living off taking a picture every time the ride is stuck on the brake run, something is wrong if u didn’t see the ride go down at least one time on ur visit, and I’ve probably seen the ride of steel maintenance guy more than his own family has, words can’t even describe how unreliable it is

So, Imo I think the perfect layout for intamin mega coaster could be Silverwood. They are making a new rollercoaster for 2021 called, stunt pilot. However, in my experience at this park I think they get rid of T.N.T & swap it for a intamin roller coaster with that space it is taking up. Their top 3 roller coasters are After Shock, Tremors, & I believe Stunt Pilot will be a welcomed addition to this park. The northwest doesn't have alot of theme parks so, this is where you could probably see a intamin roller coaster probably going.

It’s interesting that other manufacturers are focusing on differentiating their mega coasters with the one factor parks clearly don’t focus on: Layout. Mack and Intamin don’t see success by making far better layouts because parks focus on capacity safety comfort reliability etc. I wonder why they don’t try making their product better instead of just the layout, because that seems like the only way to compete with B&M.

Really good point Hansapark has a hypercoaster with an element i will not spoiler, but it makes the circle really long (4-5 Minutes from taking a seat to leaving the train) and therefor ruins the capacity. However, der schwur des kärnan really put the Park on enthusiasts map and is the best coaster i have ridden So what im trynna say: Its hard to find the most succesful Balance in Capacity/safety etc. And Uniqueness, and uniqueness is something Parks look for i thini

@@clubstep8244 But that’s exactly @Coastoons point, that a sustainable model needs more than the uniqueness factor that puts one park on the map. That’s why there’s not a lot of (One to be exact) Guerslaur hyper coasters. Models are rare and even one offs when established parks won’t really want one.

Worlds of Fun needs help. What do they need? Launch, good standout, more attention in general. If I’m Cedar fair I’m doin somethin with Intamin in KC. (Also I’m just sayin that the Chiefs are really good right now, and Steel Curtain might not be the last NFL themed coaster) (Also ALSO sayin that maybe CF just needs to give them another chance, I mean, it was only like, a bunch of incidents, right?)

Ya jn America the intamin mega is really done for the next few years, there are a few parks that could do it, like silverwood, lagoon, smaller cedar fair parks (maybe) and the herschend parks are a few, but most kf the potential parks tk get this models truly don't have the revenue to get one rn, so it'll be a few years at least until a new mega coaster js here,
