@@pr6046 dude you've got issues. For a start you have commented on rgt85's channel well over 400 times and it's all badmouthing. Seriously man, what is wrong with you?
When I worked at Toys “R” Us in the late 90s, we had endless quantities of this game for $10. I never understood why there wasn’t more interest, but the fact that they went unsold and then I eventually picked up the GC game new for the same price a few years later tells me why we haven’t gotten a new entry.
Yeah but I do think in 2022, it could be financially justified. Like with more gamers out there and MK8 D selling 42 million, I think a remaster of F-Zero GX could hit 1-2 million
@@hairlessmonkey86 it sucks because Diddy Kong Racing was sooooo good. in my top 3 N64 games, and in my top 10 Games of all time lol. i hope we get a DKR release for switch online since microsoft is playing nicely
This is one of my most played games in thee N64. I never understood why people didn't love it as much as I did. The fact you literally eliminate opponents by smashing your car right into theirs and getting rewarded for it is something I wish more games did these days, because it's incredibly cathartic, for some odd reason. Plus it has easily one of the most badass OSTs ever made.
I guess I'll chime in since I've never actually seen anyone give an honest opinion about this game in the comments. I just don't think F Zero has good moment to moment gameplay. It's pretty novel to go fast, until you realize how little diversity the gameplay actually has. You can drift, boost, go off jumps. Alright, pretty standard stuff so far, pretty much what I'd expect from most racing games around that time. But nothing _truly_ wild happens in this game. Like this game can't produce those unbelievable moments that you just can't wait to tell your buddy about the next day. Ramming into AI, falling off the track or coming in first place by less than 1/10th of a second are just par for the course. The AI aren't satisfying to beat because it doesn't feel like they're _actually_ trying to beat you, they're just.. moving forward on the track and there's a high number of them so it seems novel compared to everything else. To me, F Zero feels like it's only 40% of a completed idea. I think if Nintendo could pull off some miracle like genuine, online, 30 player multiplayer races then it could be a different story, but that would be a herculean task especially considering Nintendo's online history. In my eyes, it's no wonder this series only lost steam. I think some people are more obsessed with the idea of F Zero than actual F Zero. I would even bet that most people that rave about F Zero have less than a week's time played into the games.
@@Tjerty I agree. Even as someone who has put 100s of hours into perfecting myself in the time trials mode of F-Zero GX on the Gamecube. The games are just brutal on higher difficulties and the real depth doesn't really show itself until one is willing to learn about some of the more advanced techniques that require a lot of skill to pull off anyway. From a casual's perspective, the novelty wears off quickly and I have noticed over the last 15 years how niche the core community actually is. Also GX was so good I imagine Nintendo themselves would be intimidated by the prospect of making a true sequel as they have stated such in interviews over the years.
I'm just happy f-zero is getting some love. I know we'll probably never get a new one but I still appreciate the original and the N64 ( not so much the NGC one.. because damn it was hard in story mode)
Imagine if Nintendo translated and released the 64DD track editor and allowed players to share their tracks online? Then it would be the best NSO game.
Probably not Beetle Adventure Racing because of the Volkswagen licensing but Wave Race is almost a sure thing. I just hope Nintendo starts releasing more N64 games than one per month, so we can get the lesser-known N64 titles. The N64 may have had a smaller library but there's still at least 50+ games worth playing today.
The most impressive thing about this game for me is the stick control, no emulator is even close to the feel that I got on the expansion pass game, it's really close to the original and I love it 🥰
There was an old store called Tower outlet that popped up after the collapse of Tower records. These stores would sell tower merchandise with video games and CDs for pennies. I bought 500 or so dollars worth of video game consoles and video games which was a lot back then… Now here was my mentality… The 3DO was the most expensive console out of everything when it launched… so that’s gonna be the most rare… So I’m going to keep all of the 3DO stuff super pristine and I’m just gonna take out all of the super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Sega genesis stuff out of the box and keep that for my kids… Because of this genius idea of mine, I now have a earthbound cartridge with half the sticker missing off of it it would have been worth a little over $800, now worth $50… Sitting in a console that has been used so much that I have replaced the MB out of it already and recycled power cables from other consoles. But, I still have my 3DO stuff. All in boxes. That are worth nothing.
I owned this on the N64 and have fond memories of playing this with friends- classic game- great multiplayer experience. Get it on the Wii U e shop and own it rather than rent it
This is a game that's dear to me and I'm glad to see Nintendo taking good care of it. Now, if only the joy-con drift situation was fixed, that'd be great. Fall off the track in F-Zero X? Just blame the drift lol
Umm.. Because joy-cons are included with the Switch? The Split Pad Pro also suffers from drift. But I must say that the controller looks more comfy to use.
@@MetalJody1990 I've never heard of drift on the Split Pad Pro; if it does happen it's probably very rare, like drift on a GameCube controller. Honestly, I haven't used the Joy-Cons since I got the Split Pad Pro and Pro controllers.
Oh ok. I looked on Reddit and found some folks who have drift. I suppose drift can happen on any stick. I have a PowerA gamepad for Switch. No drift yet.
They need to release another racing games included Wave Race 64 and Diddy Kong Racing 64 that will be coming someday is Extreme G and Extreme G 2 (motorbike racing)
I've always liked F-zero and this is no different but this one I haven't played since I had an N64 back in the day and wow I had forgotten how hard it is to get in first 😂😂😂 but it's by far the most fun on the N64 expansion part yet.
I usually don't care about this gimmick, but what really sold me into this version is the controller rumble. Like no joke, I was playing with the pro controller and the feeling of it is just right. Idk if Nintendo actually upgrade to fit the joycons/pro controller's HD rumble, but maaaaan 10/10 experience.
I like that RGT is authentic, that you can tell he has a long history and experience in video games that gets communicated. Not like grifttubers, who you can tell have neither history nor experience in their presentation.
You don't need to drift into other racers to blow them up, you can use the spin move. Just tap both drift buttons one after the other very quickly and your car will spin. It's hard to master, but it makes it easier to blow up the other cars.
the one thing that would make this better is if they were to include the f zero expansion pack that was on the 64dd that never came out outside of japan just need to transfer the text to english
hey other story... im very disapointed on chocobo gp and i cant wait for you to review the chocobo gp on your channel, you are straight to point when it comes to this.
Lmaooo at how you said spawn wave sucks at the game and was falling off the tracks. This game is lit, I just wish you could play online with randoms. My friends don’t want to throw down for the expansion pack
RGT I completely agree. We can emulate on Xbot series X/S like 9x resolution, soft shadows, anti-aliasing... IT LOOKS crazy good on the SWITCH online version here!! so smooth, updated 2-4x resolution PLUS some shadow work, smooth enough 60fps!! This is on of the best N64 switch online games for like what 4.50$ per month? I LOVE THE 4 gens for sub 5.00$ monthly.. and then 9.99$ for xbox game pass service... GREAT times we live in... Now where is Pokemon Stadium Nolnine, In addition, this is AWESOMEly done here... WHERE is Gamecube games ( even same resolution, only slight boost textures maybe?, or slight res boost) Where are the GC Nonline console games.. IMAGINE Wind Waker... Nonline... + Pokemon XD Nonline...+ F-ZERO GX.... Nonline..+ pikmin 2 Nonline.. ANDDD super smash bro mELEE Nonline.. THESE TITLES on online service ( monthly like xbox game pass gives near 700 games for 9.99$) IF SWITCH gave these few games ^ above + some other GC few games... THEY would then have 5 GAME CONSOLES for 3.99-4.99 online game services... WOW :D I'm happy we live in this era. great video RGT.. I AGREE. this on OLED :D
Really cool vid RGT 85. If you have the Switch Expansion Pack already, you gotta be checking out F-Zero X immediately, F-Zero on the SNES is still probably my slight favourite but is so hard too choose tho, cuz there hasn't really been a bad F-Zero Game at all guys. If you don't have the Expansion Pack yet guys, don't get it just too Play this Game, don't get caught up in the hype until GoldenEye 64 Drops hehe.
Got this game and played it when I was bored. Met my brothers for my first time and multiplayer was key. As brothers do we eventually went the "arcade" way with this game and were trying to beat time trials we made. It solidified our brotherhood. Who was better? Who was the best out of four boys who had never met before?
pretty hilarious....I smoked a huge bowl and decided to go on expert...I thought I was kicking so much a$$ only to realize I was in 14th place by race's end....man it looks so damn good
I'm good at Mario Mario Kart, but I suck at this. What is the best way to take corners? The top left and right drifting buttons? Is it better to take your thumb off the gas when doing this? Novice is easy, but I only got like 11th place on the first cup on standard. I guess I don't really know how to play the game yet though lol.
Been a year but here: Never hold the control stick hard left or hard right like how you turn or drift in Mario Kart. F-Zero X requires a lot of minor subtle movements with your control stick to turn. Also side attacking can be a beneficial way of regaining control of your machine if you’re beginning to spin out so if you’re sliding to the left, side attack to the right, if you slide to the right, side attack to the left. Also to make sharp turns, try to side attack in the direction of the turn (depending on the turn, it may require multiple side attacks). A lot of it is hard to perform but once you get the hang of your machine that you’re using and you begin to muscle memory the tracks, it’ll come off much easier. Not to brag but it’s helped me beat Master mode with every cup with all 30 machine so it’s definitely achievable it just requires a lot of practice and dedication to really get it going.
I love f zero x i do think it’s the best f zero game even if they continued making more on the ds or wii it’s so nostalgic like im sure it’s the best racing game on the n64 and how awesome the soundtracks are, I’ve never played f zero x even when I was a kid I didn’t have it besides my brother having it yet i can’t remember him having the game, I first played it last summer and I sucked at it yet I got it bc of captain falcon who I knew from super smash bros but yeah I was so knew to the game I sucked at it until I played it more and watch videos of people playing it just learning what to do but now I’m like so good at it I played as all the characters and one them all 5 cups
I want the version you guys are playing, because mine….on single player….is not 60fps. I even tried time attack where it’s just you. Still stutters. Great music though
It WOULD have be the best experience on NSO, but no 30-player online is such a missed opportunity if ever there was one. Here's hoping for a new entry that provides just this - could you imagine?!
I remember beating this game on all modes and was going after the Master mode. Unfortunately when I would sit close to my n64 the middle of the controller press the reset button when it was saving and I lost all my saved data ☹️ that was the worst thing it could’ve happen after putting hours and hours beating every course in first place.
I'm curious as to what controller you used for your play time with this game. Coming from the original N64 cart of this game to its release on the switch is really polarizing imo. This version does not feel adequately optimized for modern controllers, such as the switch pro controller, in my opinion. The controls are so sensitive that it is next to impossible for me to get through the first three novice cups without destroying each of my cars. I'm aware that there is an N64 controller adapter for the switch, and that might just be the route I take.
LIVE FAST EAT @SS!
Enjoy your E. Coli, fren.

Fascinating idea!
Don't get carried away now
60 FPS for a 3D game like this is a pretty impressive feat especially back then.
It actually looks great on Wii U too. It may just be something about this game specifically that makes it scale up better

Not to brag but it’s helped me beat Master mode with every cup with all 30 machine so it’s definitely achievable it just requires a lot of practice and dedication to really get it going.
I love f zero x i do think it’s the best f zero game even if they continued making more on the ds or wii it’s so nostalgic like im sure it’s the best racing game on the n64 and how awesome the soundtracks are, I’ve never played f zero x even when I was a kid I didn’t have it besides my brother having it yet i can’t remember him having the game, I first played it last summer and I sucked at it yet I got it bc of captain falcon who I knew from super smash bros but yeah I was so knew to the game I sucked at it until I played it more and watch videos of people playing it just learning what to do but now I’m like so good at it I played as all the characters and one them all 5 cups
I want the version you guys are playing, because mine….on single player….is not 60fps. I even tried time attack where it’s just you. Still stutters. Great music though
It WOULD have be the best experience on NSO, but no 30-player online is such a missed opportunity if ever there was one. Here's hoping for a new entry that provides just this - could you imagine?!
I forgot how much I sucked at F-Zero X 🤣
Your experience online can vary wildly. If you want to see how awful it can be, just watch GameXplain’s livestream of it. It was unplayable.
I know there wasn't too many but I wonder which third party N64 games Nintendo could get for the service 🤔
F zero x is class & defo a lot better than the snes one. Would love to see the San francisco rush trilogy on there. I really enjoyed them games!
Did you enjoy Maximum Velocity for the GBA?
I came here from F-zero GX. And all I thought was: why have you put F-zero x in slow motion.
I remember beating this game on all modes and was going after the Master mode. Unfortunately when I would sit close to my n64 the middle of the controller press the reset button when it was saving and I lost all my saved data ☹️ that was the worst thing it could’ve happen after putting hours and hours beating every course in first place.
I'm curious as to what controller you used for your play time with this game. Coming from the original N64 cart of this game to its release on the switch is really polarizing imo. This version does not feel adequately optimized for modern controllers, such as the switch pro controller, in my opinion. The controls are so sensitive that it is next to impossible for me to get through the first three novice cups without destroying each of my cars. I'm aware that there is an N64 controller adapter for the switch, and that might just be the route I take.
I am not a racing game guy unless it F-Zero the GIVE IT TOO ME!
You are correct sir!
