What to do with Tomorrowland Arcade?

[NiarrNDisney]

Well now that it has been announced that the Tomorrowland Arcade is closing shop!
What would be a good fit to go in its empty corridors?
How big of a footprint does it sit on?
What attraction if anything could go in here?
Finally - What would you like to see here?

Knowing they'll want to do something to attract guests....I got a bad feeling will be seeing him set up shop here for M&G's...

Demolition.

And a gift shop with a flat roof.

The main visible building is the store. The arcade is a small area squeezed between it and the railroad in the back.

There's quite a bit of room there to play with. And, due to how the exit works vs the gift shop, it could easily work as a meet and greet and handle extra traffic.

Red is the Starcade, Green is the Gift Shop and Blue is the ride exit ramp.

Finally. Place was a dump

Move the dance parties in there, make a sound proof exit out of SM so those that don't want to be bothered by the obnoxiously loud noise fest can walk thru that area in peace !! ok, I know it will never happen but that's just my opinion.

This area was originally intended for a Tomorrowland Train Station.

First of all, aww... no more pinball at MK... And now to get back on topic, I think realistically the area will be used as an expanded gift shop.

While I don't really care since it will only be replacing an arcade and we will not return to WDW until it is worth it(in my eyes)... I think this is probably it.

Why not an interactive experience in the style of Habit Heroes at Innoventions for this show??

My friend and I personally tried out habit heroes and it was VERY fun, to be honest!!

Yikes! What is that?
If its going to be a M&G I personally would much rather have Meet the Robinsons !

I hope not the Space Mt. gift store is quite large and already seems bare!

I wish the Mouse could think up a smaller attraction, maybe something for those who are not interested in flying around space to do to get out of the heat while they are waiting. Think the exit to Mission Space.

 

[MarkTwain]

I vote demolish it. It completely throws off the scale and blocks the view of Space Mountain.

Although if it must be saved, I like the dance party idea. Anything that helps restore Tomorrowland to its former ambience.

 

[Cmdr_Crimson]

Yikes! What is that?

A very bad Idea from the unimaginative minds of Disney Junior...

 

[kap91]

I would guess expanded gift shop space, perhaps adding a fresh candy section ala storybook circus, since Disney parks are obsessed with candy apples.

I don't think it's big enough for much else, unless they wanted like a second first aid or something.

I'm going to be on a hunt to see where they moved Indiana Jones. It was the only one that I know of on property. After our trip a few years ago we had to buy Tron and I'm always on the hunt for a good POTC. Ijust wish the pins on property has a little better up keep.

DisneyQuest perhaps....

Prepare it for Frozen 3, which will feature Anna and Elsa going into the future with Space Buddies!
MORE MERCHANDISE PLEASE

Either tear it down or flatten out the roof and move the restrooms to that location. This way something can be done with the partially abandoned skyway building. Then put either another attraction in place of the skyway bldg. or at least move that crappy stage that sits in the middle back into that spot.

Tomorrowland is an absolute wreck and has been for many years. I am just so glad the they removed the Galaxy Palace Theater to make room for management parking and put that temporary (permanent) stage in the only open area to create more congestion.
