I have. My friend’s wife usually picks 150cc when we play. I feel like I used to be pretty good at Mario Kart back in the 64 days but I usually can’t beat my friends now. I think the coin system is a bit hard for me to keep up. Most of the time, I end up in 4th or 5th so I can usually beat the AI at least. I can’t say the same for F-Zero GX. I never came close to winning races in that game, even against the AI.
I love F-Zero X and F-Zero GX. So i guess im in the minority.
Yeah, but F-Zero is mainly a racer. Shouldn’t brawling be the side mode or solo story companion to the racing game?
Do we think Toy Con Robot is still a possibility at this point? It's been a long time since Labo happened, and assuming Smash 6 were to be on a new system, it'd be weird IMO to have a choice so specifically tied to the previous console. You could argue most of the other picks are also Switch-based, but I think most of those have stood the test of time better than Labo has, and are a bit more flexible in terms of when they get in. I don't know if it'd still be on their minds by then
Yeah, with Raven Beak (or EMMI), that’s a pretty good selection of first party characters. The only thing missing at that point is Dixie Kong. The third party picks make sense but none are really among my most wanted. Overall, a pretty solid list I’d be happy with.
Sadly true, although from what I played from F-Zero and F-Zero X, I did enjoy what I played, like the destruction derby-like elements, so I wouldn't be surprised if there were some fans who love the series for it's gameplay.
Probably along the lines of Side Mode/Story companion. I mean, there are multiplayer-focused games with a decently focused story campaign, although for the most part, they use the same gameplay. Although I could've swore there were a couple games with a single player and decently focused multiplayer that had different gameplay. Not counting small stuff like the Kirby series mini-games.Yeah, but F-Zero is mainly a racer. Shouldn’t brawling be the side mode or solo story companion to the racing game?
Even the anime put brawling to the side. I can only remember like five times in the fifty episodes where Falcon threw hands.
Labo is mainly there as a WTF pick like Plant or ROB. I doubt we are returning to random enemies or something historical again, so I went with something stupid from the Switch era. Trying to guess what the surprise pick is will probably be a fools errand, but it’s more fun than leaving it blank. I would prefer not to have LABO than to have it, but it’s there for a specific purpose. There almost certainly will be an oddball out of the box pick, it’s just the one I chose.
You just know it has more to do with people knowing Captain Falcon as the Falcon Punch guy than anything from an actual F-Zero game.
I don't think people would be wanting Yakuza gameplay compared to GTA, Arkham City or whatnot if they weren't aware of F-Zero's more goofier side. Or maybe they think of Yakuza because of F-Zero GX being made by Sega.
Hell i'm pretty sure the devs for FZero GX are actually the same people that went on to make Yakuza.
What if I told you...there's a TWO-hundred CCs.Compared to F-Zero on hard difficulty?
I’ve played MK8 200cc and personally it’s challenging, but very doable as long as you have a basic understanding of the controls and drifting.
This x10^52 for real it makes a huge difference. When me and my wife play it's typically for me to come in 3rd or so but I've yet to really use this technique whereas it's central to her strategy and she actually ends up lapping most of the cpus lol
Honestly I never really understand the idea that F-zero can't exist because we have Mario kart. This is like arguing that Kirby shouldn't exist because Nintendo already have Mario as a platformer franchise.
Yeah I think this is a fairly safe list aside from Demon King Ganondorf which I already explained why I don't see him as super likely. I'm not too sure on Pauline too personally, I still think that despite her popularity she never really hit Rosalina's or Bowser Jr. popularity, but I think she can go either way. I still think King boo could be a surprise Mario pick considering how huge Luigi's mansion is right now and he seems to be fairly popular too.
That's debatable. Especially when F-Zero sales were declining per title. Namco has been noted to be picky about stuff that doesn't sell, something that Harada mentioned and how much the Soulcalibur VI director had to push to convince Namco to let them do SCVI.
Ya think characters like Ring Fit Trainee, Toy Con Robot, Officer Howard, and Meowscarada will still be relevant enough by the next the next Smash hits?
If the next smash is coming out then, the roster will have been decided 2-3 years beforehand, looking heavily at the switch era. Aegis and Min Min were too far out in 2016 for Ultimate, so I doubt they won’t be out of the running. Heck, look at Brawl’s roster, it makes a lot of sense as a roster made in 2005. I think the former two are completely safe in that regard. We haven’t seen a breakout new ip reach either’s success yet and unless another happens soon I doubt that would change. Also Toy Con is mainly there as my token surprise pick.
Oooh I forgot ultimate was the only game to have all its characters announced before launch. I wonder if they'd keep some secret ones before launch or not for a deluxe version. Maybe it's like subspace, where Sakurai would be worried about them being put online early, especially with how many games leak nowadays.
That, and managing your resources. Coins keep you in the game, your items are more shields from items than weapons when you stay in 1st so you can keep your speed and acceleration. But not so far as to prevent you from throwing if you see a blue shell on screen so you don’t take the hit.
It doesn't matter what's still relevant when the next Smash hits. It matters what's relevant 2-5 years before the next Smash hits. Because that's when the roster is actually decided.
You just have to be okay with braking.
Ditto isn't even a character, it's a model swap of existing characters driven by an AI. I don't see how that's considered more "functional" than any other cpu combatant or how this makes it so likely in your eyes.
it has something to do with the fact that Ditto has been on the table as a pokeball since melee and his addition wasnt possible until ultimate came in and the fact that adding Ditto does present the mimic type of character that many fighting game has remember sakurai choose
over decidueye only because he wanted a wrestler and same case can happen to Ditto and right now Ditto is most iconic mimic type of character in video game that can be presented and he is the easiest one right now because it was made possible in ultimate i know there is kirby but he only mimic 1 move from each character in smash
