Mine Cart Adventures: The Next Deal or No Deal?
This may be the best use ever of Theme Park technology.
Five guys. A giant screen. The threat of virtual death by lava. The makings of a true Japanese game show classic.
The description from YouTube uploader Yatsubame:
This is a clip from a Japanese quiz show called “Nepu League”, where they’re playing the game called Torokko(Mine Cart) Adventures. They will be asked various questions and have to move to the side of the correct answer.(There’re five questions in all.) If the incorrect way they go, they’ll fall down to the lava! If they could reach a goal, they’ll get 1,000,000 yen(about 9,000 berries, I believe) as a prize.
There is a game like this in the arcade in town. Except when you win you get 1000 tokens to spend on prizes.

How silly of them, it’s just like chocolate Easter Bunnies. The solid one weighs more than the hollow one!
