13:53 why was the Mii channel theme playing in the background? That is so random! I’m actually surprised Nintendo didn’t come knocking on Rainbow’s end’s door about that
Because Rainbows End is a very sad excuse for a theme park especially when it's the countries only theme park. Embrassing that tourists come here and this is the only theme park they will remember the country by.
Seen as it's New Zealand's one and only full amusement park (after they closed down footrot flats out west, that's going back many moons ago lol) and Splash planet Hastings/ the old Fantasy land still has some rides so it's still pretty cool but Rainbows End is still pretty cool i remember when i first went there in the late 80's early 90's and they were introducing new rides all the time. I get that sometimes they get hit with rough times like during covid etc and when they're doing renovations around the park it may look a bit dull at times but if you think about it NZ they have survived since 1982 so they must be doing something right and us nz'ers should be proud as yeah we may have only one rightful theme park compared to America and our neighbors across the ditch in oz with there Disneyland and movie worlds and water world theme parks but it's a good one and we all love the favourites like the log flume, the gold rush the bumper boats and dodgems and of course the corkscrew roller-coaster. It wouldn't be the same without them so we hope that they never get rid of any of those rides as I'm sure there would be an uproar if they ever did. Thanks again to the staff and team that do an amazing job of running Rainbows End and we hope you continue to grow bigger and better and as soon as we are back at level one I'm bringing the kids to try out all the new and exciting rides and all the favourites again. Thanks and look forward to seeing you there.
Just before Covid 19 my friend had invited me to rainbows end for her first ever ride. I had already been a couple times and was finally tall enough to go on all the rides, we promised each other we would go on all of the rides and before I left my house I said ’by the time I get back, I will have done every ride at rainbows end’ my friend chickened out as she had only ridden the corkscrew, invader (she didn't like them) gold rush and log flume. I decided I would go with her older siblings and stick to my word. It was epic. Funny bonus: the kids show was teaching the renegade 😂. My cousin that I haven't seen in 11 years was meant to come to nz and it has been delayed, the next time I go to this amazing place ill be prepared to do it all again🤩 sorry if it seems like I'm bragging but if anyone is thinking about doing a ride and what it's like just ask me 🙂 (sorry but I'm just am very proud of it because I was going to chicken out but I stuck to my word even tho I was terrified) if you read the whole way through THANK YOU SO MUCH!❤️🤩
Looks like if they use the space wisely, they could fit another rollercoaster in. It would have to interact with other rides. Seems like alot of dead space with buidings etc. I haven't been there for at least 20 years.
Looks like a nice little park , wish I could go there right now...Stuck here in MASSIVE lockdown BS California...lol...at least finally getting rumblings of some parks going to open in May!
Let's hope things get back to nornal sooner than later! Cali has some amazing parks so it will be worth the wait! Best wishes and thanks for watching 🤗
@@ThemeParkOgre I was there when the 1993 advertisement came out. That group of guys singing was “Purest Form” an old Pacific Islander group here in New Zealand 😎👍 1990 to 1993 I been... since then I have never gone back.
@PancakeThePichu I was kind of joking with the concussions, though I wouldn't be surprised if someone did get concussed going on that coaster. It throws your head around like crazy.
@PancakeThePichu That is a valid argument, but then I could also argue that they should no longer have such a dated ride. They got rid of other older iconic rides, build a new and safer coaster...(they can't afford it)
@@ThemeParkOgre That sounds like just more debt to me. And to waste it on an ''upgrade'' to a ride that's already there instead of adding more rides seems silly to me, the park needs more rides.

Glad someone noticed that! I had to suppress a giggle while recording

Thanks for sharing your story! Hopefully the park will be open sooner than later so you can have another great day. :D
OgreMagic thank you!!
TÉAH IS THAT YOU!? 😂😂
@@gloomish I- how did you know-

They definitely should make a roller coaster that goes right around the park
It definitely needs some major changes to bring it up to current Theme Park standards. A new coaster would be a great investment!
@@ThemeParkOgre they are trying their best to make the park look impressive ive applied to work there just waiting for a reply from them :)
@@andreicampbell6299 Good luck! Looks like it could be a nice place to work

It’s in Auckland New Zealand btw Demonoid74
Chur for the upload that place has changed big time!
My pleasure! I never got to go there in the past so I can't compare :(

Damn i haven’t been there since 2008
It's a nice park! Hope you get to go back soon
Going here today! Cant wait.
Just for some people if you don’t think the fear fall ( big dropper) isn’t high well when you get to the top you can see all of Auckland 😅😂
You get a great view from the top!
im going there 2 times 3 days
Hope you had fun!
You guys won't believe me, but a few months ago I beat the punching record on the punching machine in the tech room
Remind me never to challenge you to a Brawl
@@ThemeParkOgre nah I'm pretty sure the machine was rigged
I've been there before and someone passed out on the rollercoster once
Yeah because it's a piece of shit roller coaster that causes concussions. The whole park sucks, sad this is the best and only theme park in NZ lmao
@PancakeThePichu I was kind of joking with the concussions, though I wouldn't be surprised if someone did get concussed going on that coaster. It throws your head around like crazy.

Would’ve been cool for splash planet to stay as fantasy land so we could have two amusement parks
Agreed!
I've been there
Hope you had fun!
Jamming to High School Musical 2
splash planet is a theme park
I'd say it's more of a water park
IT HAS XD RIDE
More seating spots than rides
Sure could do with some more rides!
@@ThemeParkOgre That isn't going to happen. I remember hearing years ago they were in massive debt and probably still are lol.
@@jeeroylenkins3081 They spent $1.5 million on an upgrade for the Log Flume ride last year. Times are hard for sure, but I think they're doing OK!
@@ThemeParkOgre That sounds like just more debt to me. And to waste it on an ''upgrade'' to a ride that's already there instead of adding more rides seems silly to me, the park needs more rides.
4:48 Mickey Mouse in a non-Disney park
Good eye!
I bought a mickey plush at rainbows end yesterday and it was $40 like wtf
wow sure has changed since i have been there
I've heard that a few times. I've only been in the last couple years - would have been cool to see it in the past!
Not gonna lie, this looks kinda disappointing compared to other theme parks. Looks fun just anti-climatic
It's not as good as other international theme parks for sure, but as a smaller park it's quite charming and fun. I enjoy it for what it is!
It's def a rip off
@@MoDicky no way man!!! It’s super awesome for a theme park to be in New Zealand. At least they did their best
@@batycousins_ yes was a few of their rides weren't even active
asyh
