The expansive Nickelodeon area boasts six outstanding new stand-out attractions, including:
* Avatar: The Last Airbender™: Adventure-seekers climb aboard a massive
36-person platform, complete with a towering sculpture of Avatar's main
character Aang overhead. Armed with Aang's mission of saving the world
while having fun, guests hang on as they experience a thrilling rocking
and spinning motion on this innovative coaster experience. The Airbender
swirls along a wave-like track, often hitting heights of more than five
stories.
* Plankton's Plunge ™ Children of all ages will delight in this
mini-drop ride that takes guests more than 20 feet in the air and
plunges them gently up and down. A Plankton sculpture graces the top of
this attraction, bringing another element of Bikini Bottom to life.
* Phantom Flyers: Guests experience what life is like as Danny Phantom,
half quiet high schooler and half super hero phantom fighter! Boarding
two across, heroic guests lay face down and prepare to FLY in a
circular, swinging motion.
* La Adventura de Azul™ -- All aboard! Vamonos! Little ones are
delighted as they make their way around the fun-filled railway, led by
Dora's favorite train, Azul.
* Blue's Skidoo™ -- Guests climb aboard everyone's favorite dogs Blue
and Magenta and prepare to fly up, down and through the air.
* SpongeBob's Bikini Bottom Bash™ -- Perfectly refreshing for a hot
summer day, SpongeBob's Bikini Bottom Bash doesn't require a bathing
suit, but it is definitely an exciting wet and wild maze adventure
complete with water cannons and lots of fountains.
A trip to Nickelodeon Universe is not complete without a spin on 12 additional fun-filled, family-friendly rides, including pint-sized swings, a log flume, carousel, classic whip, three additional roller coasters, bumper cars, car rides and more! In addition there are two brand-new neighborhoods devoted to SpongeBob SquarePants and Dora the Explorer!

Pretty cool,. but they will need to include more rides for thrill seekers, ie at least one coaster or FAST a vertical drop (not calm like Planktons).

Errr....looks okay. Not that many thrilling rides it seems.

Looks a little boring. But the Bikini Bottom Bash sounds good.
