Any word if this is going to hit on any other platform besides the 3Ds?

FUCK. They are making it 3D.

It does beyond just the graphics. Even the Simulation is completely screwed up on 3. About a year ago, I re-bought the complete game on Steam. I created a fairly accurate version of a local park, Six Flags America. Upon opening the park I had 2200 peeps visiting. 1600 of which went straight to the first small pool and stayed there. Another 300 were hovering around the suntan lotion stand. Suntan lotion, the crack of the RCT3 universe. A handful of peeps wandered a few rides and attractions and the rest of the part was a ghost town. I have a feeling none of that will be address with this release. I need to go back and play RCT2. I picked it up from GoG but I haven't installed.

But they made a poll on facebook and the winning request was isometric camera mode.

I really liked RCT3. 
Not as good as 2 but it was still great.
Also port beggers need to get out of dodge before I hulk out.

2D RCTs were much better than 3, but I think this will be very good. I can't wait to get it.

The title is now officially "on hold," despite being on store release lists for March 15.

What does that mean, the game is finished and is just sitting in a warehouse somewhere?
Probably finished, but they're holding it and not releasing at the original release date.
...Why, since there's not even the excuse of "3DS selling bad hurr durr" anymore.
Are you sure about this? I don't recall hearing bad financial news about them, but maybe it's me.
I hope it is good, I would like to get into this type of game again. The 3D aspects would be a nice addition. What really intrigues me is the word sandbox and also the story mode could be interesting. I will remember to keep my eye out for the reviews. I am definitely excited to own a 3DS. It definitely sounds like this will be a good year for it!

I will buy a 3DS for this.
Looks about as good as RCT3 looked on my old crappy PC that I used to use. So I'm okay with it.

Facebook update:
Saw this 'video' from them on Youtube, kinda worries me that they haven't released a video of the game yet just stills. Not a good sign if you ask me :/..
Oh, the video says the game will be released in august (after the initial push from march), but clicking on the pre-order links it says 'This item will be released on October 16, 2012.'.

I haven't trusted these guys since they got me excited for Space Station Tycoon for the Wii and then out of the blue and with no explanation put it 'on hold indefinitely.'
Stupid company.

No. It's their own thing and it doesn't look particularly good, sorry to n-Space. 3DS couldn't handle RCT3 anyway.
Aw. Sucks.

I'd kill for either a proper sequel to RCT2, or a completely ridiculous evolution with RCT4. Something that not only let you fully build/realize your park in 3D, but had the customization of RCT2 and then some. And to tie it all together, it could have an actual first-person mode, where you could actually just visit your park, walk around, and skip ahead in lines to ride rides, VIP-style.
I want it in the Unreal 4 engine, as well. Or just a modest RCT2 sequel.

I want a new RCT that has the visual style of the new SimCity coming out.

I like that as well. A game with RCT2 game play and Sim City 5 graphics would be close to perfect. I have no desire to go first person and ride my rides.
ITS fun for the first time but totally pointless after that, unless your making a ride that kills everyone then its fun.
but still, these graphics

Wii U would be perfect for this, touch screen planning and building rides etc
Are you vomiting because you don't like the graphics or because the thought of RCT with those graphics is so freaking amazing that it tickles your uvula causing you to throw up?
First review I could find, 25/100. Reads extremely annoying and unprofessional, but still, doesn't sound good. I'll pass on this.

No water rides? My theme parks aren't complete without the Chocolate Log Flume Adventure.
the graphics remove any charm rct had
Uh why would a cult game like rct get screwed over so badly?
