[up]Wasn't that the one where you drive in a straight line through a bunch of shutters? That one was boring.

That one was easy. Sure it takes a few tries, but that along with the race against Goroh are ones which I have little trouble beating the top difficulty for.

It was plenty easy, yes, especially compared to some of the others. It was still boring, though.

Perfection is easy if your only obstacle are some static shutters. No RNG to screw you over. Just set your machine to max speed, and trust your instincts.

I managed to do so, but I still don't like it. The Goroh race was far easier in my opinion, not to mention fun.

I know this is late, but the Blue Falcon is returning in Mario Kart 8 as a DLC kart, and there's an SNES-style F-Zero DLC track. And this is on top of the anti-gravity thing that was in 8.

Yeah, this is reason to be worried, especially when Miyamoto says:

Stylish machines, 60 FPS, charming racer chatter, non-bullshit AI, Non-bullshit singleplayer (and no locking us out of content due to bullshit AI), solid but simple racing mechanics, speed SPEED SPEED, hilarious omake. That's all you fucking need for a good F-Zero, Nintendo. Damn.

Some kind of re-release would certainly be nice to see. I don't think that's asking too much. :(

Here's some detailed gameplay footage of Mario Kart 8's Mute City:

Man, they missed out on a DLC Captain Falcon, didn't they?

So something that kind of looks like a Mute City mixed with that giant casino course in F-Zero GX. I have to wonder if they're using the Mario Kart DLC as a testbed to consider potential future F-Zero titles.

I sure hope so.

I'd settle for GX HD at this point, Nintendo.

Though that course reminds me more of Aeropolis than Mute City, to be honest.

[up][up]If they are, they'd have to realize it would also somewhat hurt the initial reception of a future F-Zero game. Why would people want to buy a new Mute City when they already shelled out $8/$12 for the one in MK 8? Not to mention it feels like Nintendo's trying to turn MK into F-Zero itself, but you may have already had that conversation, and I'm just late to the party.

Because playing by yourself is just plain boring.

Then again, that's one F-Zero course along with a big pile of other courses that come with it, and F-Zero has plenty of really neat locations besides Mute City.

MK8's Mute City looks like an HD-fied F-Zero X, since GX looked a little bit "grittier" for lack of a better word.

I love that the screens have C. Falcon saying "Show me your moves!".

GX's Mute City courses also took place at night, so there's that end to it looking different, too.

So I've been playing a lot of GX and I got an important question.

How are you supposed to take that S-turn in Drift Highway at top speed? I always hit the wall there and end up behind everyone else.

I've only ever managed it by, well, drifting- Hold both shoulder buttons as you take those turns. You can turn more sharply but the controls get more slippery, so watch that.

It's definitely most reminiscent of the SNES game and just general Mario Kart-ness, but it's decent.

So apparently Miyamoto wants a newer control interface before we get a new F-Zero. And he is still going on about how he can't think of anything new for F-Zero.

...wait, WHAT? He's seriously willing to let EAD stagnate with the New Super Mario Bros. series (which is their fault, since the fans have surpassed EAD in making an NSMB game), yet he's hesitant to do the same with F-Zero? What's his problem? And why does he want a new "controller interface"? The Wii U's GamePad layout is exactly the same as the SNES; there's no reason to want a new interface!

I think it'd be good if people remember that Miyamoto is a person and not the god of games tongue

Kinda like how that god of manga guy seems rather pretentious xP*shot*

...Seriously, those guys are famous for being pioneers, not because everything they touch turns into gold :P
