For sure.
Um, Makata, what is the feeling that you're looking for?
Part of the reason that I go on roller coasters, it is that controlled chaos or that controlled fear very often on a roller coaster or other rides that go very high.
Uh, I am, it is not a lie when I say, I think I am going to die, but it is that, that chasing of, um, an excitement that you just cannot get when you are living your normal life.
That is what I am looking for.
Yeah.
It's interesting.
When I think back on the rides that I really loved when I was a kid, I still think I have the most nostalgia for those story-based rides.
They didn't have any big thrills, the type of big thrills that you're talking about, Mikado.
The Haunted Mansion, Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, Peter Pan.
These rides that would just seem so boring to kids today, to me, they remain just magical.
I went to Universal Studios in Hollywood and there's, as there is in Orlando, there's a little Harry Potter corner and there's a ride there that is as much about the screens that are around you, like you're moving around in this, you're hanging and then you're moving around to different parts of a giant screen and there's sort of fire effects and all this stuff.
And yeah, it's like the interactivity of it, the moviness of it almost in both of the Nintendo parks.
I believe there's like a Mario Kart ride that also involves like a gamification of the ride.
You're not just riding the ride.
You're also doing other things.
Is it virtual reality or augmented reality?

This is great.
