VIDEOGAME LAND
"Welcome-a to Videoland!" tells you an animatronic, rusted and chipping man. "My name is-a Somari the Spaceman! It's-a very good to see you, woohoo, ha ha!!" Next to him a green (also chipped and rusted) fat Hedgehog statue dressed in green and with a leather outfit stands close doing a peace sign. "And I'm his good buddy, Scory the Porcupine! Welcome to Videolang Buddy!"
Ahh Videoland! Popular no less than ten years ago, it has began a recent decline compared to the other parts of Happy Happy Land due to most of their clientele simply growing too old for it and going off to the other parts of the planet. Still waiting for a new deal with a game provider to use their licenses, it becomes older and more jaded, still trying to have the same magic as a while ago, but the dream being long gone. The world is now a dangerous combination of video games bordering bootleg and strange creatures and things that are just the right amount off not to be written as simple copied parodies. Costumed men and women wear the suits of the mascots, and a few pretty girls wearing the Princess Lana, Ruler of Videoland™ costume don't look as bright and cheerful as they should be. Every four hours, there's a Captain N: The Gamemaster show, with the typical theme park overacting and asking kids questions as anagrammatic versions of Mother Brains, Eggplant Wizard & King D'ippo capture her and have to be saved by Rock N' Rollman, Solomon Belmont, Kid Icarus and, of course, Captain N, the Game Master.
Everything seems sort of wrong. Like a marketing gimmick that caught on. The annoying young kids seem to like the show, mind you.
However if you're not here to watch terrible theater productions, the park is divided into six subsections, accessible by a monorail. Well, when the monorail is working anyway (and it is today! LUCKY YOU!) When you arrive you are standing near the Palace of Power, large, impressive (and pink) castle that apparently belongs to Princess Lana.
Kongoland is jungle-themed. Once in a while you see a large animatronic ape roar in the distance, but it looks completely fake. The sections' biggest draw is, of course, the Videoland Arcade. Somari's classical game is displayed prominently, but there are also spinoffs like the slot machines and a really, really intergalactic popular hit, Kart Fighter. Kart Fighter has an entire subgame community dedicated to it. On most days you can find foul-smelling aliens huddled together on the big screens, watching the tournaments going on.
The game is only surpassed by the other mass playing Monster Dragon Tactics Phone. Teenagers and young kids can be seen walking around with their portable console, playing the game, exchanging Monster Dragons and just making walking around in this room a bit worse. If you stay, there is more! Panda Adventure, Jurassic Boy 2, The Dragon...
But...if you look closely, you might start to notice some strange things. Like this Hardy & Centaur Take on Black Dragon Queen! arcade game, Night Fedyd games, Advance Emblem, Fire Wars, Scory the Porcupine, Deus Ex Machina: Building of an Empire, Nurse Who, McNinja Burger, Age of Dragons, Final Quest of the Fantasy, Dungeons and Dorks, Ronin Sentai Rangers, Effect of the Dark Mass, Space Pirates!, Danbateyo! Clash of Ninja-Pirates, Magical Teleportation Gun Adventure, Resident Sweet Home, Gate of the Stars, World of the Stars and Crafting, and Disgaea 77: The Quest for Even More Money. They're all here, in various sections. Pricing is based on hourly play for some and judging by the amount of food, some aliens have been here for a long while, saying out numbers and things like robots, talking with their teammates.
The second level is dedicated to all sorts of instrument and rhythm games. Dance Dance Revolution, Guitaro Devil, Guitar Angel, Guitar Super Angel Devil the Second Best DX, Popo and Nana Rythm Fever, Drum Drum Super Beat Master, Sing sing your Heart Out! and of course the classic, Band of House Rock.
The third level has all sorts of board and card games, but only the nerdiest of the nerds go there and they tend to be...really special.
The food served here is jungle-themed as well, overpriced, tiki umbrellas and roasted bananas everywhere.
MetroidSpacepirateland is pretty much your terrible run horror section of a theme park, with four haunted houses, terrible horror movies in the scare-o-thing being displaced in 4D SMELL TECHNOLOGY (bring a coat, you'll get wet!). Men and women dressed up as space pirates move around the theme part, pushing everyone and probably the only costumed people in Videoland to enjoy what they get to do - be grumpy and annoying and get paid to do it. There are zombie movies of every kind in the classic section, mostly in black and white.
Food is BBQ themed, large racks of meat are roasted around in pits everywhere by zombie-dressed attendants and space pirates.
Centered in everything, a large tent gives out horoscopes by famous Madam Rizzles, for a mere (read: very very overpriced) fee!
Megaland, is a sort of future world, where everything is bright shiny silver, sleekly designed and hosts Videoland's biggest rides and luck-based games. This is Rock N Rollman's world and you can see the tiny green guy shaking hands, posing with kids, and just generally being himself. Something about "To Energy Tanks and Beyond!" Do you like neon? Hopefully because this place is filled with it. NEON OF EVERY COLOR.
There are roller-coaster rides, space shooters, laser shooters, that spinning thingie everyone knows what it is by looking but can never really name, an entire row of zippers, spinners high atop the largest tower (you have to sign papers) and so on.
You can win toys of every kind! Space robots! Superheroes! Other types of super heroes (WITH SWORDS!!) Baman and Robbit action figures! Horribly disfigured plush toys hang on nearly every game booth as booth owners scream out in loud microphones for you to come try your luck at this or that and get a large overstuffed toy, all videogame themed. Somari is present everywhere from toys to plushies to an entire line of Kart Fighter outfits. Kat (with bright red hair) from Advance Emblem and Maverik (who has pink hair and a yellow outfit) can by won in a shooting game. Some transforming action figures too!
A large dog goes around in a costume giggling at the loosing contestants and generally being a pain. It is a miracle no one has killed him.
The food is videogame themed. There is also pizza of every kind and a special kind of cake that is served.
Mount Icarus is the children's section of the theme park. Dangerous but child-size rides are scattered across out, with the Kid Icarus themed yoyo swings, a tunnel of love (cause he looks like Cupid, you see) and magic cloud carpet rides (we don't know either)!
Children's food and ice cream colors are available, very, very overpriced. You're better to go to another overpriced part of the planet than to eat here.
Castlevania is half horror (since Space Pirate Land stole some of that) half medeval land. There is a special section of the the section (a subsection if you will) called Carnival of the Damned that boast the biggest coaster on the planet, the Monkey Island theme ride! The entire ride lasts for a mine-shattering 10 minutes boasts several drops, and lava and claims that no accidents have happened for the last TEN DAYS! WOW!
As with everything, it is medieval-video game themed. You can pose with the main hero, get yourself some leather whips and 'holy' water (not really holy), and fight off some men in vampire costumes.
The only food you can find here is Fish-Cream Sandwiches which are fancy baguettes with roasted eel (but shh that is a secret), cheese and cream inside. That's it. Nothing else. Well actually, there is the wild waffle reserve that allows you to hunt for one waffle if you want to pay the price, but they are hard to catch.
With all these sections it might take a while! Or you'll just run off in horror to another park and never, ever look back.

Re: Castlevania [Carnival of the Dammed]
"Don't call me a brat, Cassandra!" He said her name with purpose and length behind each letter, like he always did. "Or I'll let you go by yourself and watch you cry, baby~"
Hana had meant to say baby like an insult, but he surprised even himself when it came out more like a pet name.
Re: Castlevania [Carnival of the Dammed]
Though honestly...it was a creepy looking.
Re: Castlevania [Carnival of the Dammed]
Hana looked toward the front of the line then bounced a little, excited. "Not long now."
Re: Castlevania [Carnival of the Dammed]
When he bounced so did she though. "Gonna be so cooooool!" She was rocking on her heels.
Re: Castlevania [Carnival of the Dammed]
"If we can, you wanna ride at the front?" He challenged.
Re: Castlevania [Carnival of the Dammed]
"Y-Yeah! Sure!" That seemed like the absolute most horrific place to sit, it would be awesome!
Re: Castlevania [Carnival of the Dammed]
As the line shuffled onward Hana grabbed her hand tightly and pulled her along until they were at the barrier for the carriages.
"We're next!"
He was still holding her hand as looked at the track infront of them, eyes twinkling with excitement as they waited for the carriages to come back.
Re: Castlevania [Carnival of the Dammed]
Re: Castlevania [Carnival of the Dammed]
Only after waiting until the helpers came around to check everyone was buckled safely did Hana quickly strap himself correctly, chuckling. He then reached over for Sandys hand, winking playfully. "Remember, the louder you scream, the faster it'll go!"
Re: Castlevania [Carnival of the Dammed]
And all the straps that were supposed to make her feel secure just felt constricting and troublesome.
But...she held Hana's hand and that kept her grounded at least for now.

"Please do not spit," a sign above them said as they got halfway near the top.
It wouldn't be long. Just another minute and they'd get their, as the angle became more and more crazy...
no subject
He turned, grinning widely at Sandy, squeezing her hand. "You ready?" Obviously, there was no fear in this boy.
no subject
"Y-yeah...no...yeah OK I can do this!"
But she was squeezing his hand a little harder.
doop doop excuse the derpness
Then another clank and something being released. The tombstone took off, depending at ludicrous speeds, right into a giant monkey's mouth.
no subject
The heart pounding sensation of plummeting. The thrilling spark of traveling at such speeds. It all reminded him of the dragon flights he'd taken with Ruffnut. The memories were coloured with pain and sadness from recent events so he pushed them away.
"WOOOOOOOOOOOO!" He yelled, one of his largest grins plastered to his face.
no subject
It was fast, faster then she'd ever ran, and she wanted more.
no subject
...oh. that lava didn't look too friendly, and they were heading right into it! (No worries, it's just an illusion! See why the ride has warnings over it now tho, huh?)
no subject
His hand moved in Sandys hold to slip his fingers between hers. He then pulled her arm into the air and yelled. “YEAH! Bring it on!”
no subject
"YEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahaha!"
no subject
and then they became skeletons and part of LeChucks army of the damnedas the ride continued dangerously into what looked like a cavern with life-sized figurines acting out scenes from a video game. There was LeChuck torturing Guybrush Threepwood in all sorts of terrible machines.Then the ride went right into three full loops.
no subject
As they went around, Hana's hair flew all about in his face, making him laugh.
no subject
Maybe even kissed him. She was positively giddy.
no subject
no subject
As the ride became darker he heard an odd sloshing sound. "You hear that?" He leaned to the side to look out of the carriage. "We're in water."
The sudden drop accompanied with a drenching made him yell.
He burst out in giggles and shook his wet mane of hair.
"Again!"
