I've always been a fan of the RollerCoaster Tycoon games. When I first played the original, I was hooked and I loved the sequels (especially the second game). It would be nice to have an RCT game on the Wii U. I would like this to be a collaboration between Nintendo and Atari, along with help from the creator of the series, Chris Sawyer.

Disclaimer

This blog post is just an idea I have and all of the information is hypothetical.

Gameplay

The main focus of the game is to have the freedom to build and customize whatever you want and to share your creations with the world.

Mechanics

The gameplay would be the same as RollerCoaster Tycoon 3. You could build amusement parks, water parks, and safaris in a 3D environment. Using the CoasterCam, you could take photos, record videos, ride your rides, and see the park from a guest's view. You could also add fireworks, light shows, water shows, and mixmaster shows and play them to songs which can play on a scheduled time. Add scenery to your park to make it more appealing to guests. You could make changes to the land by simple landscaping and/or by terraforming. During gameplay, you need to manage your staff, finances and park ratings to make sure that your park is top-notch. The day/night cycle would return and at night time you can light up your park by lighting up rides and adding lamps. There would be two clocks in the game, with one displaying the in-game time and one displaying real time. During gameplay you could make Miiverse posts, obviously. As a new feature, you could build tracked rides underwater by having tunnels created where the track the meets the water or by building tracks from the bottom of the water and connecting the stations to the underwater paths. You could also build curved paths, spiral stairs, and escalators. Using an SD card, you could have the option to save track designs, parks, and photos.

Controls

The game would be compatible with the Wii U GamePad and Pro Controller. The left control stick and back buttons would control the camera angle. You could change the controls to your liking. There would be three ways to play with the GamePad. The first option would have Off-TV Play, with all of the gameplay taking place on the GamePad's screen. The touch screen could be used to scroll the camera, access the menu, build rides, build paths, place scenery, edit the rides, and change the landscape. Pressing ZL and ZR on the GamePad at the same time would change the GamePad's screen. The second option would change the screen to a map of the park. You could use the touch screen to scroll the map, build rides, build paths, and place scenery objects. The third option would have the screen become a keyboard. Using the keyboard, you could easily name any attraction and trigger the keyboard controls of RCT3 if you'd like. While in any of these modes, you could still use the buttons to play. Below are the default controls:

  • A Button - Select/Build.
  • B Button - Cancel.
  • X Button - Open/Close Menu.
  • Y Button - Toggle Gridlines.
  • Start Button - Pause.
  • Select Button - See through land.
  • D-Pad - Scroll Menu.
  • Left Control Stick - Move Camera.
  • Right Control Stick - Move Cursor.
  • L Button - Turn Camera Left.
  • R Button - Turn Camera Right.
  • ZL Button - Zoom In.
  • ZR Button - Zoom Out.

If you press and hold the left control stick, you could stack scenery.

Modes

The game will have modes taken from RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 along with some new modes.

Single Player

There would also be a Co-op Mode where one player uses the GamePad and the other uses the Pro Controller. The player with the GamePad builds on the GamePad's screen and the player with the Pro Controller uses the TV screen. Both players could build on different areas of the park and both players share the same maximum loan. This would be optional and won't affect the progress of any of your parks.

Career Mode

Choose from a list of scenarios and complete park objectives.

Sandbox Mode

Build your own park from scratch with all rides and scenery available and no money restrictions.

Tutorial Mode

Learn how to play the game and utilize the various features.

Online Mode

Connect to Nintendo Network. When connected, you would be taken to a room where you take control of your Mii and interact with other players from all over the world. You could share your custom parks, building designs, and coaster designs with the world. When interacting with other players, you could visit their custom parks, ride their custom track designs and give them your feedback. You also have the option to use content posted by other players in your game. Co-op Mode could also be played in Online Mode between friends with voice chat activated. For Online Co-op, up to four friends could build on different sides of a park and manage everything. There would also be competitions where players could build certain coasters, record videos of them, and submit them on Miiverse.

Custom Mode

In this mode, the only limit is your imagination.

Scenario Editor

Design your own custom scenario. Choose from every ride and scenery item available.

Track Designer

Build your own track designs for roller coasters and other tracked rides. You could also build scenery around your tracks to give them themes. You could also record videos of your coasters.

Building Editor

Create your own scenic building designs.

Guest Creator

Create and customize your own guests that would appear in your parks. You could give them names, select their gender, age, height, weight, skin color, hair color/style, eye color, facial features, clothing, headgear, eyewear, wristwear, footwear, and swimwear. Each guest you create could have the option to ride certain rides depending on the preferred ride intensity you give them or ride all of the rides regardless of preferred intensity. You could also create guests individually or in groups.

Extras

View the textures of the rides and scenery.

Sound Test

Listen to the in-game music.

Photo Gallery

View photos taken from rides and the in-game camera.

Video Player

Records

Options

"Video games are meant to be just one thing. Fun. Fun for everyone!"

RollerCoaster Tycoon Collection

Aside from the new installment, I also want to see a compilation containing the first three RCT games and their expansion packs on the Wii U. Instead of being ported, the games would be remastered. Everything from the games would be included, but with some improvements. Using an SD card, you have the option to save your track designs, parks, and photos. I would like this game to be released first since it would be easier to put together.

Controls

You could use either the GamePad or Pro Controller. While using the GamePad, you could use the touch screen to edit the rides and scroll the camera. Pressing ZL and ZR at the same time on the GamePad would change the GamePad's screen for three ways to play. The first would be Off-TV Mode, the second would be Map Mode, and the third would be Keyboard Mode, as mentioned above for RCTU. While in Keyboard Mode, you could use the assorted keys on the touch screen to trigger the original keyboard controls from the first three games which can be changed to your liking. For RCT2 and RCT3, pressing and holding the left control stick will allow you to stack scenery.

RCT1 and RCT2

  • A Button - Select/Build.
  • B Button - Cancel.
  • Y Button - Toggle Gridlines.
  • Start Button - Pause.
  • Select Button - See through land.
  • Right Control Stick - Move Camera/Cursor.
  • R Button - Change Camera Angle.
  • ZL Button - Zoom In.
  • ZR Button - Zoom Out.

RCT3

  • A Button - Select/Build.
  • B Button - Cancel.
  • X Button - Open Menu.
  • Y Button - Toggle Gridlines.
  • Start Button - Pause.
  • Select Button - See through land.
  • D-Pad - Scroll Menu.
  • Left Control Stick - Move Camera.
  • Right Control Stick - Move Cursor.
  • L Button - Turn Camera Left.
  • R Button- Turn Camera Right.
  • ZL Button - Zoom In.
  • ZR Button - Zoom Out.

Improvements

  • The graphics would be enhanced in HD and all animations would run at 1080p 60fps.
  • Scenario Editor and Coaster Designer would be added to RCT1.
  • Sandbox Mode and the Fast Forward option would be added to RCT1 and RCT2.
  • RCT2's Scenario Editor would be improved to allow rides to be built and to choose every ride and scenery item. Coaster Designer would also be improved to choose from all coasters and to build scenery around the coasters.
  • Any bugs and/or glitches would be fixed, including the graphical distortion glitch in RCT3, where everything disappears when you zoom out.
  • When changing screen resolution in RCT1 and RCT2, the camera would simply zoom in or zoom out to the selected resolution without any delay.
  • Loading times would be greatly reduced.
  • Guest and Staff AI would be improved.
  • Any downgraded rides in RCT2 and RCT3 would be upgraded to reflect their appearances in RCT1.
  • Bobsleigh Coaster, Car Rides, Cycle Railway, Ghost Train, Go Karts, Water Rides, and Wild Mouse Coasters would be upgraded to have more track elements.
  • Miniature Railway and Trams would now have the railroad crossing.
  • Two or more attractions could share the same name.
  • You could place unlimited banners and signs in your parks.
  • Twister Coasters would have Powered Launch Mode.
  • The special RCT1 scenarios, Gameplay, PC Gaming World, and PC Player, which were originally downloadable, would be available by completing half of the original, Corkscrew Follies, and Loopy Landscapes scenarios, respectively.
  • Songs in RCT1 and RCT2 would use their real names (ex. Ragtime Style would now use Searchlight Rag).
  • Certain rides introduced in Wacky Worlds and Time Twister would now be color changeable.
  • You could ride your rides in RCT1 and RCT2.
  • Custom parks created in Scenario Editor could be posted online and be shared with other players, similar to the level sharing in Super Mario Maker.

In-Game Store

On the main menu, there would be a Nintendo eShop icon that would take you to the in-game store. Obviously, you would need a steady internet connection if you want to browse through it. Fanmade content from RCT2 and RCT3 would be redesigned by the development team and be made available as free downloadable content. You could download parks, rides, track designs, paths, park entrances, and scenery items. While most of the rides were made from cloning existing rides, some would be modified to make them a bit different. There would be catalogs named after the websites that contained fanmade content. You could choose to download either invidual items or bundles in each catalog. Catalogs would include Amazing Earl, Buggy, Coaster Grotto, Cougar, RCTgo, RCT*Mart, and the User Created Expansion Set. You could also use filters or type in the search bar to find what you're looking for. DLC could be used in Scenario Editor but not in Sandbox Mode.

Data Importing

If you were to have save data for both RollerCoaster Tycoon Collection and RollerCoaster Tycoon U, you could copy and send over track designs and custom scenarios from Collection and use them in RCTU.

Wii U Mouse

Since RollerCoaster Tycoon is a mostly PC franchise, what better way to bring the PC experience to the home console then with a mouse peripheral? It functions like a regular mouse; you drag it to move the cursor and left click to confirm. The mouse would be bundled with a mousepad and RollerCoaster Tycoon Collection. The mouse can be either black or white. It will have the Wii U logo imprinted on the bottom with the four Wii Remote lights below it and the home button placed in the center between the left and right buttons. It would be wireless and have the same AC adapter as the Pro Controller. Aside from the RCT games, it would also work for the Wii U menu, Miiverse, Nintendo eShop, Friend List, YouTube, Hulu, Netflix, Amazon Video, Crunchyroll, and Internet Browser (and hopefully Mario Paint would come to the Wii U Virtual Console). The mouse would be ideal for playing when the GamePad is in Keyboard Mode.

Smartphone/Tablet Connectivity

RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 introduced custom billboards and shops where you can add photos saved on your computer and use them for customization. Since this won't work for the Wii U, there would be an alternative to this. An app would be released for smartphones (iPhone, Android, Blackberry, etc.) and tablets (iPad, Kindle, etc.) that would allow you to add photos saved on your devices. When starting up the app, you could choose to connect to either RCT3 (in Collection, not the original) or RCTU. When connected, you could browse through your photos and use them in the games for custom billboards and shops. You could also add videos from your camera and play on custom billboards. You could also add music to the game by adding songs saved on to your device. Custom music could be played on any type of ride. You would have the option to save your custom photos, videos, and songs into the games so that you can use them without the app. It should be noted that photos and videos that contain inappropriate content such as nudity or profanity wouldn't be used due to the E rating of both games. The same thing would apply to explicit songs.

Trivia

  • These would be the second and third RCT games on a home console, with the first being RollerCoaster Tycoon for Xbox.
