DisneyQuest opinions?
I've never been to DisneyQuest, and with it closing this year, I'm not sure if it's something I want to experience once, or if it's something I could have done without, like Stitch's Great Escape.
What are your opinions on DisneyQuest, the value, the entertainment, etc.?

This is what I wrote when we visited on our 2011 trip:
I really didn't have any idea what DisneyQuest was or what to expect. We went inside, looked at the maps somewhat and decided to start from the top and work our way down. We spent a couple of hours in there and had a lot of fun. Everything is included with admission, so I played some really old video games like Galaga, Rampage and Centipede/Millipede. They had lots of different video games - no tokens needed. I also played some skeeball and basketball and a few other games (like what you'd expect to find in an arcade or a Dave & Busters). They also had a number of virtual reality games, but we didn't do any of that. They also have small snack bars on every level so if you're hungry, you can take a break to grab a bite to eat. We had a good time, and it's great as an inclusion for annual passholders, but I don't think it would be worth actually buying a ticket for.
Please don't ask me how I feel, I feel fine.
Oh I cry a bit, I don't sleep too good, but I'm fine

DisneyQuest opinions?
Worthwhile if you have a 7 - 12 year old boy with you for sure my son loved it for a few years. It's never done anything for me but if you enjoy gaming I would say it's worth a visit.

My son loved the virtual reality games they had there. There was a pirate adventure and I believe a jungle cruise type of VR games. They also had a bunch of the old arcade games like Pac Man, Asteroids, and Galaga just to name a few. We really enjoyed hanging out when we went. It was also during the summer, so it was a nice way to stay out of the sun for a while.

Did you ever see the attraction that Disney was working on, and they showed you in a sort of Imagineer's Lab? It was a thing where you put on a headset and it put you into Agrabah, and you rode around on a magic carpet. They have that there, and it's really pretty cool. Also, as others have said, if you're into old games you can play to your heart's content. I don't go there often, but when I have I've always had fun.

My inner 12 year old may have to check this out one day before it closes for good. I wouldn't mind a game or 2 of Q-Bert on an actual arcade machine!

If you can, go when they have half ticket prices available. It's doable in a couple of hours and not worth the full price of admission.

Thanks for the tip! In my limited review of the WDW site yesterday, ticketing/pricing seemed to not be easy to find. It just had the "theme park admission required" tag line on the DQ page I found.
I think I might have read somewhere on-line that there is an AP discount vs. standard admission?

My post was getting long so I just wanted to add this:
I have a special place in my heart for DQ. I went there while dating my husb. Use to go with his parents and my brother and friends. We had so very much fun all playing together even though we were different ages. And we could do it rain or shine, eat together there or go outside.
I wish I had taken pictures of all of us while we were there.
I know I'll go back to relax, play and enjoy my memories.

Out of this world for Disney
We had a good time but we had alot more fun going to a water park. It all depends on families preferences.
"Although we think it's DOPEY that Pluto has been downgraded to a dwarf planet, which has made some people GRUMPY and others just SLEEPY, we are not BASHFUL in saying we would be HAPPY if Disney's Pluto would join us as an 8th dwarf. We think this is just what the DOC ordered and is nothing to SNEEZE at."

I remember on some old Disney parks program I watched on like travel channel that there was a sorta design your own roller coaster thing that you could then sit in a simulator and ride on; is that still there? Always thought that was a fun idea.

I'm pretty sure it's still there.
