Videogames have become mainstream entertainment thanks in large part to Nintendo’s Wii and Nintendo DS. Gaming is now influencing Walt Disney Imagineering (WDI) as they craft new experiences for Disneyland, Walt Disney World and the Disney Cruise Line ships.
“Our audience is ever-changing and the more videogames become popular, the more visitors to our theme parks expect to interact in their world and also in their entertainment,” said Sue Byran, senior show producer and director, WDI. “When we were working on DisneyQuest 12 years ago, our audience was mostly frightened by the idea of interactivty, we now have an audience that’s excited about it.”
