No chance on Nemesis lasting that long. That's how long we want it to lastIlovecoasters wrote: Just wanted to update my original predictions:
Sonic Spinball - 2016
The SEGA contract will run out at the end of 2016, and Merlin will get rid.
Runway Mine Train - 2018
Will hopefully go in a few years time to make way for SW 9 or 10
The Smiler -20202020-2030
Quite simply, the smiler will crumble before it's taken down. At some point in 2020, after 7 years of operating, it will completely break. A death trap waiting to happen. UNLESS THEY FIX IT
Air - 2025
A great coaster, but will disappear soon after it's 20th, deemed not to fit the Forbidden Valley and that it has now become too rough
Rita -20302020-2030
Rita will stay for a while, but will need to be upgraded due to the simplicity of it.
TH13TEEN - 2035
It's hard to say, but I think it will stay until we have some other freefall drop coasters that outdo it. But, as it's just approaching it's 4th birthday, it is not time to say goodbye yet.
Oblivion - 2040
Oblivion will be allowed a 40th anniversary before it is decided that a dive machine this basic needs to be upgraded.
Nemesis - 2050
The beast should comfortably see her 50th birthday, before they will have to do something with her. Yes, we will riot, but all good things come to an end.
Sonic: 2016
RMT: 2020-2025
Rita: 2025-2030
Smiler if it doesn't rot: 2030-2035
Oblivion: 2035-2040
Air, plagued with difficulties: 2040-2045
Nemesis, dead after 50 years: 2045
