Six Flags Introduce VR to 9 Coasters

[Dar]

I think VR could be a nice way to rejuvenate an old, moderate coaster that's close to being removed. It's fairly cheap and not very time consuming to implement and I can see MACK media having a catalogue of stock films that they can offer and adapt for each ride.

Putting it on something thrilling or even slightly rough is nonsense though, how can you brace if you can't see the track?

Six Flags have now announced that they are adding VR to Raging Bull at Six Flags Great America. The VR will apparently be different to that rolled out on other Six Flags coasters.

BUMPing this right up as SFNE are replacing VR on Superman with "VR/AR" on Mind Eraser.

VR on a SLC... *shudder*

At least they're removing it from Superman though. Makes no sense putting VR on the biggest coaster in the park.

VR on an SLC. That...doesn't sound like a terribly good idea to me.
