I don't know about the Disney ones, but Rediffusion Simulation has
released a video game based on the same technology they used for their
flight simulator.  It is a two-seat cabin, with two monitors (26" and
??? smaller one...).  The cabin can move for 60 cm in all directions,
rotate of some 30 degrees (if I don't miss), with an accelleration of
1g.
