  • To anyone who thought I was joking about reviewing this game in my Rudolph Wii video,
    I kinda wish you were right, to be honest.

    Review was short but it was still entertaining nonetheless. This game makes M&Ms Kart Racer look like a party in comparison... wait. M&Ms had a Beach Party game on the Wii as well... Oh dear, I just gave you an idea.
    I love the choice of Crash music you used when talking about the minigames.

    I remember playing this game once or twice and then seeing it from time to time. It was weird. Never played much and even then I knew how shit it was. But has also lingered in the back of my mind for ages. Good to see that I wasn't missing out on much nostalgia.

  • @argonaut640

    This game kind of reminded me of Donkey Kong Barrel Blast, another racing game that utilizes on-rails racing on the Wii. I've only rented it, but the game was...certainly an experience.
    Yeah, I think that game had more going on than this one from multiple angles, even if the controls are a bit weird and would have been more suited for the bongo drum controllers of the GameCube (which it actually was intended for before getting ported to the Wii) rather than just shaking the controllers to go left or right. Also the last time we'd see many DK characters outside of Smash appearances, so that's a thing.

    You know what, side note, I have never understood the concept behind screen-obscuring power-ups; like, I can still see just fine, this is basically just a "Middle_Finger.PNG" plastered on the screen. Now, if these kinds of obstacles actually had a tangible effect, like, say, briefly disorienting your driving (maybe swerving or being more slippery) and slowing you down, for a brief couple seconds, maybe I can understand them, but as is...what the hell's a Blooper going to do for me in 7th Place? I've already lost, the game's just telling everyone how much of a sore loser I am, basically...what a waste of an item slot... >.>

    Having a racing where you ride magic carpets only to have the whole thing on rails is really stupid, unless to some extent it's an FMV game from the early 90s. But the Wii didn't exist or was even thought of in the 90s, so there's no excuse!

      He did. He pinned a comment update on the OG video for ChocoboGP and explained that while they did fix many issues with the battle pass, gameplay wise it's still a slough, the XP gain is still pretty shitty, and it still tries to strong-arm you into paying to get the good stuff quick(albeit more gently it seems).
      And in said comment, he expressed disinterest and said he would not go back to the game again.
