The New Myer Centre opened in Adelaide, South Australia in June 1991. Here is some footage of Dazzleland, that was on the top floor & operated till 31st January 1998
Never went on it, but you can't call any city boring that had a roller coaster five floors up in a shopping centre. Bring back Dazzleland!

Paul Coffey It was actually seven floors up. "Rundle" Level was the ground floor and "Promenade" Level although tucked away was actually the 1st floor. Level 1 was fully above "Promenade". But yeah - You couldn't call Adelaide boring back in Blue's Bullets' heyday. (Blue's Bullet was the name of the roller-coaster because its track was painted blue.) Especially seeing as how directly beneath the tracks itself was nothing but a sheer drop down to "Rundle" Level below. It was built directly over The Myer Centre's gap in the middle of the mall floors.

Ah Memories. WHY they shut down Dazzleland to "make way for more specialty shops" I'll never know. Wonder if those idiots in the mid-1990's jumping from Dazzleland levels to their deaths had something to do with it. :'( Imagine witnessing someone jumping through the 'hole' in the middle of the floors & whack onto the hard floor of Rundle Level or worse - Terrace Level were the food court was located. I had a family member who worked in The Myer Centre as mall security officer back in 1995. I still remember the phone-call late one night to say "I'll be home late. We've just had another jumper." then two or three weeks later, he came home and told us about the nutcases he'd had ask him about a "Flyby Cafe". You know, where you can see people FLY BYE - splat! while you eat! Wasn't all bad thou. Because of knowing one of the mall security officers, I was given a free-pass to Dazzleland that never had an expiry date on it. :D Anyone else remember those free-passes? Where all rides were free and you were given 1st preference on the amusements? Shame today because the glory days of the centre are long gone now.

Seeing this again and comparing it to the centre now since the upgrade was finished at the end of 2013 it doesn't even look like the same place, it's now in its 3rd era and now not nearly as recognisable and seeing the shot down all the other levels that's what The Myer Centre is supposed to look like? just like any other major shopping centre, not even the lower floors now look close to what we see here, not only as part of the upgrade the unused escalators to the 4th and 5th floors between 1998 and 2013 are now gone leaving what's left of Dazzleland completely empty but almost 0 people are even on level 3 these days

I believe one of the reasons they wanted to shut down, is the noise on the upper levels was keeping customers away from the lower retail shops. but then again wouldn't attractions just increase foot traffic and not drive them away?
