Virtual Console

[A Black Falcon]

Well, if I want to play F-Zero I'll play the far-superior F-Zero GX I have for Cube.

25 Racers > 4 Racers
Good Graphics > Dated Graphics
3D Courses with loops, twists, and jumps > Flat, flat, flat.

Sorry, I liked the original FZ too, and it is one of the better racing games out there...of it's gen. I'll take GX any day.

25? Doesn't GX have 40 racers, just like the N64 version? As for F-Zero though, it does have more racers, you just can only choose to race as four of them... and they cover the essentials.

Graphics? F-Zero looks great for a SNES game. Sure, GX looks better, but that doesn't mean F-Zero looks any worse... it's still a very nice looking game with some great music and style... X too, on all counts. All three are incredibly good. (Course designs? Sure, X/GX's looping courses are cool, but F-Zero's tracks are quite well designed too... I know that as games age in some ways they do look worse in comparison to newer ones, it's not fair to penalize a game for doing something that was common when it came out... that's just not fair. And anyway, F-Zero still plays great. This isn't a case of a game made unplayable with age, that's for sure... the main "new games wouldn't do this and it's a bit annoying" thing is the way that you have to be above a certain place on each lap to continue, but you get used to it.

.. but I love futuristic racing games. My second favorite 16-bit racing game? Outrun 2019, on the Genesis. :)

I bought Sonic a few days ago, and I just bought Bomberman today. Bomberman is incredible. I never got the chance to play it on TG16, but I can't wait to get 5 people together to play some true multiplayer. Just playing against one other person was fun, but I can only imagine how much fun it is with 5 players.

... but can't the Wii only support four controllers?
