What’s the criteria when Disney decides to replace it? I just don’t think you know so you already decided it should go. This attraction is a franchise so it’s very likely to be around for a very long time.

I think that was the original intention, and holiday (Halloween and Christmas I think?) games were even made and programmed but never implemented.
I don't understand the hate for TSMM since it's so well liked that they had to add an extra track and it still grows a line.

I think that’s such a waste. Why program games and not use them

I can understand why not in WDW, but it makes no sense why there's no holiday overlay for disneyland.

I actually think the time is ripe for the holiday overlays;
1) because the third track and addition of other priority attractions has finally madeMidway Mania very reasonably accessible in DHS. I anticipate TSMM (TSM) will wind up like a 5th/6th priority FP+ pick by the end of next year, which is completely remarkable from where it was a few years back.
2) because there is no downtime needed to convert it. We know WDW, god forbid, can't take a ride down for refurb more than once every 15-20 years.
3) because they are trying to turn DCA into the Halloween park, this is another reasonable attraction that would be inoffensive and easy to add to that roster.
As far as the ride, I think it's fun. It's completely inoffensive for how fun it is, yet it gets a totally unfair rap. My first visit to DLR with friends the summer of Carslands opening, their question at the end of the day was whether there were any more game rides like TSMM in either park.
I actually think screen city (Universal Orlando) would actually have a better lineup if you randomly plopped TSMM into it. An unbelievable assertion I know.

It’s fun but it’s no E Ticket. And it’s in two parks that need and deserve so much more.

Calling TSM a "Wii Game" is like calling Pirates of the Caribbean a Flume Ride. The live competition, the motion of the vehicles, the outstanding 3D with perfectly-timed 4D effects, the AMAZING real-time processing going on, and the general intensity and fun factor make this ride a winner. It's unique and special. It doesn't need any AA's. It doesn't need a story. It's incredibly fun the way it is, and its continued popularity is the result.
Not everyone has to love every ride. Not every ride has to have AAs and a story. TSM is fun, brilliant, beautifully done and one of the most re-ride-able attractions ever. I'm (certainly) not one to defend every Disney project, but TSM has been a hit since Day 1 for a reason: It's a blast as well as an appropriate and clever non-book-report use of the IP.
