GX got a respectable competitor speed-wise, it seems, damn.

 

[chadboban]

Wow this looks 15fps wtf

It's a wierd problem with the youtube stream. Twitch is MUCH better.

 

[Askherserenity]

I love the Ikaruga mechanic they put into the game.

Omg snow track!

 

[dankir]

Why wasn't this shown during the digital event?? Jesus looks great!

 

[Regiruler]

The game looks good

He's just not very good at it

 

[Schnozberry]

Wow. Shin'en really are technical wizards.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

If this game is exclusive to the Wii U, then why didn't they just put in Falcon's car and called it F-Zero?

 

[Morfeo]

2 questions.

1. When is this coming out?
2. WIll Nintendo give it the retail release it deserves for more exposure?

 

[Maintenance]

Wow, night and day switching from Youtube to Twitch. Like TLOU on PS3 to PS4.

 

[Altazor]

that snow course looks beautiful

 

[fernoca]

This looks fucking amazing. Such a wasted opportunity to not just have this developer make F-Zero.

Is not wasted. They're only like 5 people and like working on their own. No pressure, no deadlines. They do love Nintendo.

2 questions.

1. When is this coming out?
2. WIll Nintendo give it the retail release it deserves for more exposure?

1. Before the end of 2015.
2. Digital only.


EDIT: Hehe..same poster!

 

[TheSlySoul]

See EA, this is what Alpha means.

 

[ZeronosVega]

If this game is exclusive to the Wii U, then why didn't they just put in Falcon's car and called it F-Zero?

Yes, it's a Wii U exclusive. Most of what Shin'en does is exclusive to Nintendo.

 

[BY2K]

Not the F-Zero game we need, but the one we deserve.

 

[Hispanic! At the Disco]

so when my wife gets happy home designer, we can use her amiibo cards to play this board game on wii u for free?

 

[HawthorneKitty]

It's not like F-zero games sell.

 

[Morfeo]

Nintendo seriously needs to lock down this developer with an exclusivity deal - they are freaking amazing.

 

[wild wild rice]

2 questions.

1. "By the end of the year."
2. He confirmed it's eShop.

 

[Randomizer]

Wow shocked how good the gameplay looks. Shin'en haven't exactly been the best in that area. Also the UI is kind of amateurish, the way the text spins towards the screen when you finish looks so bad. I like that it's pure racing like F-Zero no weapons or other distractions.

 

[Crom]

If we can't have a new FZero then this will do nicely. Showcase stuff like this on the Digital Event next time please.

 

[RichardKSJ]

I want it right now

 

[qko]

You can't blink if you want to win in this game.


Looks like the dev getting 4th place indicates how hard this game is gonna be.

 

[Big One]

Games looks ridiculous and potentially faster than any F-Zero game.

 

[Tadie]

It seems to be pretty dificult....but so great!

 

[KageZero]

Why didnt nintedno show this at their direct is just like nintendo.

 

[Altazor]

"seventh's not that bad..."
"..REALLY?"

lol thank you Treehouse

 

[LOLDSFAN]

Now here is an F-Zero like stage.

 

[Red Devil]

I love the Ikaruga mechanic they put into the game.

Omg snow track!

Haha, I was thinking of that, Ikaruga Wipeout.

Why didnt nintedno show this at their direct is just like nintendo.

Well they're showing it now. What else gives?

 

[AkimbO_Arcana]

Also Shin'en are just a couple of guys iirc. But you can see they love what they are doing.

Day 1. Firstt time I'm saying that this E3

 

[vagabondarts]

Their track design leveled up in a BIG way from the Wii game

 

[guek]

Is not wasted. They're only like 5 people and like working on their own. No pressure, no deadlines. They do love Nintendo.

Yeah, people forget how small this team is. They're bonafide wizards. Day 1, no doubt.

 

[daydream]

"yeah we totally get fucking wasted every night here at the treehouse"

 

[2tacos]

Wow, I love the look of this stage.

 

[Xenoboy]

Look! There's Mute City!

 

[dampflokfreund]

Shinen does what Nintendon't. And the graphics are actually looking current gen.

Based Shinen.

Sucks its digital only, but cool its coming this year. These 5 people should be trusted F-Zero then, since Nintendo is apparently doing nothing with it.

 

[Askherserenity]

Seriously, god knows what they do to make their games look so good.

 

[Malus]

Definitely running smoother on twitch. Sense of speed is great.

 

[digita1alchemy]

I wish Nintendo would would have touched on this game in the Digital Event. These guys are busting their ass to make something like this for Wii U when so many other devs are turning their back on it. It would have shown so well, too, it looks stunning.

Graphics aside, I think Shin'en's games usually end up being merely good, not great, so I have never jumped on the "give them F-Zero!" bandwagon. But...Nintendo has had stellar results lately partnering with western devs (Next Level, Monster Games), so I think I am actually interested to see what kind of F-Zero game these guys could make if they had some manpower and guidance from Nintendo.

 

[AkimbO_Arcana]

Holy shit. That stage is amazing. Them GX vibes.

 

[qko]

Iwatter need to be watching this, buy out Shiien and call them Nintendo Studios Germany.

 

[GDGF]

THIS LOOKS AMAZING!

I fucking love Shinen!

 

[Schnozberry]

Shinen does what Nintendon't. And the graphics are actually looking current gen.

Based Shinen.

Most of the guys at Shin'en came from demoscene. The could probably get a version of this running on an Amiga with enough time.

 

[Randomizer]

Just realised it's only an Alpha build so improvements will be made.

 

[fernoca]

Haha, I was thinking of that, Ikaruga Wipeout.

The first game was like that. Is why every time people said "like Wipeout or F-Zero" I was like "is a bit like Ikaruga, so is more like their own thing".

 

[Bitanator]

Dude's enthusiasm is infectious

 

[JoeM86]

I'm more surprised that we've seen three Rumble games since 2011. I don't know who keeps buying and playing them.
Regarding Ranger, I thought that only the 2nd was decent with Guardians feeling off. I don't know why, but I'd like to see a 4th someday too. Maybe on NX?

Rumble games are surprisingly popular.

Pokémon Rumble on WiiWare dominated the Wii Shop charts for years
Pokémon Rumble Blast was the first first-party Nintendo 3DS title to hit 1 million units

 

[Zombegoast]

Youtube too slow to keep up.

 

[Japanmanx3]

Yo FAST looks great!

 

[NormalFish]

Did you even read the post you quoted?
