It was requested that this article be renamed but there was no consensus for it to be moved. –Hajor 20:07, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

The following was proposed at WP:RM, but not signed and no discussion was started here. Dragons flight 05:29, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

Nemesis roller coaster → Nemesis (roller coaster) – Target page already exists, as well as a mess of redirects such as Nemesis (roller coaster, Nemesis (RollerCoaster) and Nemesis(RollerCoaster), all of which should be deleted.

[edit] POV

I just removed some rather POV content from the article that added very little to the content. It still needs some work. --BigBlueFish 14:31, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Resident Evil?

My friend told me this ride is based somewhat on Nemesis from the game Resident Evil. Is there any truth in this? I have never played the game myself but the way the ride station is shaped like a red bug kind of thing does look like something that might be out of that game. Anyone know anything about this, or is it just a rumour? Baberlp 20:28, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Totally unrelated as far as I know --Vulk 20:25, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Ride opened in 1995, game didnt come out till 1999 82.2.223.158 22:09, 6 December 2006 (UTC)


Correction - the ride opened in 1994.

Correction to the main article - the World Record was NOT listed in the 2005 Guinness Book of Records. It was listed in the 2006 Book, but there have never been details of the riders names printed. I was one of the riders that set the record, and was also one of the riders who set the record on Nemesis Inferno at Thorpe Park. In fact 40 people rode Nemesis naked, but the record was measured by the amount on any one train at once (i.e. its capacity of 32). On the original record, Nemesis Inferno only holds 28 riders, but 80+ people rode naked in total.
