MK8 is almost 10 years old. If they are testing based on that man, Earthbound and Smash must be applying for an Ivy League Scholarship. This is really just another entry in the 99 series. Not Fzero. That's fine and all but F-Zero needs a proper entry. |
uhhh "not Fzero"....it's literally an Fzero game lol
Is Tetris 99 not a Tetris game? Is pacman 99 not a pacman game?
That logic makes zero sense.
Yes Fzero needs a new game of course, but all indications are that Nintendo isn't even working on one. Fzero99 is very cool and the first new Fzero thing in two decades so we should all be excited about that! Anyone hoping and waiting for a new Fzero game should be happily playing this game.
And as Bofferbrauer says, this could be Nintendo testing the waters to see how much interest there is for Fzero. They put in actual work to make this, its not just like a port of an old Fzero. This game required a lot more work than just porting GX would have taken cuz they actually added a lot of stuff, its not just wider SNES tracks with net code. That's a good sign. While I hope we get both a GX port (ideally on NSO if they add GC at some point next gen) and a new entry in the series next gen, having a really cool Fzero99 come out of nowhere is awesome and shows that Nintendo has actually been doing stuff with Fzero for the first time in 20 years. As of yesterday the series had been dead for two decades. As of today Fzero is alive once again.
