I Want Number Two!

About 15 years ago Disney released on of the greatest computer programs I’ve ever purchased. I wasted more time then I care to even think about using the Walt Disney World Explorer. That program was amazing.

For those of you who don’t know what the WDWE was, let me give you an overview. Imagine if Disney had a website that worked, was informative, and fun to use. Now take that, put it into a program, make is very reliable and user friendly and shazam! You have the WDWE.

It had great overviews of every ride in Disney World with in depth descriptions, tons of photos, and good voiceover work. The maps were colorful; there were some videos, and even a hidden Mickey Game.

There were other small side games too but I’m going to get into those.

This program let me go back to Disney at anytime. Now that I think of it, it made me want to go back to Disney every time played around on the thing.

Here we are years later and for some reason Disney never released a new version. Sure they did an update version but that was a real punch in the face. You paid full price for almost nothing extra.

I’m not sure why there was never a new version released. Maybe the original was a total flop. Maybe the website was supposed to replace it. Whatever the case I think a new version could be released and a profit easily made on it.

I’ve been waiting for more than a decade so I’m not holding my breath. I wonder if anyone else misses this thing.
