I’m writing my opinion in to Nintendo Power. When that editor who’s photo was a plushie of a slime from dragon quest sees it, he’ll bring it right to Howard Phillips
Also wasn’t gonna buy one anyway but will pretend to have been excited as hell before the price thing. I’ll add that they should make another F-Zero game and have Hideo Kojima write the story.
I was joking but the more I think of it thr more I’d fucking love to see it. There is basically no cannon aside from the bios of the weirdest cast of characters out there, what is known of the setting is right up his wheelhouse. Hell, he can direct it as long as someone else is there to keep his weird gameplay ideas down. I bet he’d design some sick tracks out of kinex or something for the game like how the first 3 mgs areas were conceptualized with Lego. Just gotta reign in the gimmicks, f zero racing has to be exactly as it’s been since n64. Boost power thst drains health that you csn use after the first lap and nothing else aside from being good. Give him a co-dirextor for the gameplay and I think we have something amazing.
Captain falcon already has Blood Falcon and Black Shadow. The Fzero roster is already super Kojima pilled. Here’s the f zero x manual description for each character
James McCloud is a hired ranger, and the leader of Galaxy Dog. He remodeled his space fighter into an F-Zero machine. McCloud is in this grand prix for one reason – money.
Long live Booster Crashman tho. Hideo will need some OC
Captain Falcon voiced by Keifer Sutherland: STOP BOOSTING!
Booster Crashman played by someone cheap cause they got Keifer: It’s alright Falcon, that’s why you’re they captain and I’m the…" EXPLOSIOON! BOOOOM! BWAMMOOOOOO! '(echoing etherealy)‘crashman-an-an-an’
Mother 4 is all the indie games that ripped off Mother. Itoi said so. I’m barely kidding. After 3 he said he wanted someone else to make one and a lot of people have.
I’d like to see itoi get one more go tho. He’s gotta be up there age wise and it would be nice to see another peek into that brain. Also he was a judge on Iron Chef for a few episodes in the 90s, blew my mind.
Considering YouTube live streams about games are usually filled with incels complaining about woke, I hope video game studios have a standard policy of ignoring them.
I knew they’d eat shit on this one in like 2019. Nintendo goes full hubris mode any time they see success, iwata and fils Aimee not being the evil ceos in charge and more hedge fundy guys taking over. I got a switch in 2021 knowing this all full well but there were enough games to make me want one by then. Things have only gotten to be more of a ripoff as time went by as well cause they had a giant hit and Nintendo always hits the squeeze and the evil ceos who navigated that issue sorta okay aside from the wiiu in the past and but managed the 3ds price crisis okay and did course correct before too much wiiu trouble happened. Hard to course correct when the console is already something thst works conceptually and is an iterative upgrade. Unless they try a wiiu2 when this fails. Also 1st party Nintendo slop has become more and more of a ripoff. Mario vs Donkey Kong or the DK Country wii game remake are easy example. My retired parents got the $50 gba HD remake and have had a great time, I’ve already played the original and cake walked the game when I borrowed it. Wouldn’t be worth a dime to me, add new levels, like double the count or more, which is easy, it’s a simple gsme and I’d have been okay to shell out like $40 or so.

And only a few of those are new games or even do anything new inside a long series of sequels.
I’d argue breath of the wild is for sure a port but Nintendo has hidden it by keeping the Ui in subsequent games even if it’s clearly meant for the gameplay touch screen. Wiiu breath of the wild has way less issue swapping arrows equipment and stuff cause you use the gamepad
A lot of these originals also fucking sucked or if good weren’t worth the price tag
Are they even interested in knowing what peeps think? Ill bet they aren’t.
Email survey is the easiest to manipulate. I bet they publish the most positive ones, fudge the numbers, maybe toss in some very soft dissent for flavor and realism and voila!
An apparent net positive opinion poll, more advertisement of the new feature set, serving double-duty in reducing appearance of backlash and shamin’ away the naysays! Nintendo always has had tight narrative control.
Now that’s a name i haven’t heard in a loooong time. You just recalled his (cartoon) face to my mind… I can see nester too lol. memberberries n shit. Wild

They must already know what people think about the price. Right?
Also wasn’t gonna buy one anyway but will pretend to have been excited as hell before the price thing. I’ll add that they should make another F-Zero game and have Hideo Kojima write the story.
It gets panned for being a mixed stealth action/racing management sim game.
Watch out snake, that’s Paw Monkey!
A F-Zero spinoff focusing on the non-racing side of the characters would be 🔥 tho
FALCON
Can you send that idea to Kojima? Death Stranding 3 could be incredible
Death Stranding with Captain Falcon would be hilarious ngl
Done.
I’ve thought about it some more and other than overthrowing capitalism globally this is probably the best idea on the entire site

I just need a rival named Booster Crashman who has a tragic back story who dies in a crash while boosting

https://mutecity.org/wiki/F-Zero_X#Characters
I read the first entry for Mighty Gazelle and have never been more convinced of something needing to happen
They’re all amazing
James McCloud is a hired ranger, and the leader of Galaxy Dog. He remodeled his space fighter into an F-Zero machine. McCloud is in this grand prix for one reason – money.
Even looks like Kaz

Captain Sutherland: …
More F-Zero and Wind Waker 2 pls
Also give us Mother 4
Mother 4 is all the indie games that ripped off Mother. Itoi said so. I’m barely kidding. After 3 he said he wanted someone else to make one and a lot of people have.
Hell yeah true

WHAT I need to see those episodes. I love Iron Chef
I think they’re all on YouTube. Pretty sure it’s season 1
during the stream the chat was 99% people chanting “LOWER THE PRICE”
Considering YouTube live streams about games are usually filled with incels complaining about woke, I hope video game studios have a standard policy of ignoring them.
I’m guessing they have a few people on staff who read the news
I can’t wait on the inevitable excuses they make because they’re already promised their investors on the price and can’t change it.
I love late stage capitalism

People defending Nintendo jacking up prices “because it costs so much to make games these days” when they barely make any games in the first place.
billionth sequel, plus basically a more boring wario ware
People were spamming it in the comments of their live stream the other day lol
Are they even interested in knowing what peeps think? Ill bet they aren’t.
