F-Zero 99 has proven the viability of OG FZero gameplay on for modern fans.

My thoughts:

Fans are going to say “This means you should make a new #FZero successor to FZeroGX”.

I’m going to disagree.

What this actually means is you should make F-Zero Maker as a successor to Mario Maker.

The OG tracks are 2D and simple, they could very easily be hand-made by players in an editor.

      Glorious chaos. The game eases you into it with a few races with only 10 or 20 computer-controlled opponents. The first true 99 race was astonishing. I like the way they have everyone abreast in a standing start, and then spread them out with a few obstacles before funneling them onto the actual track so it becomes a rolling start, but without random chance determining the start order.

      Same dude I just played it after reading about it. It’s still technically 3.99$ for Nintendo online play. But damn if it isn’t fun.
