So this was that Pennzoil thing! While it's kinda cool I guess, I had thought it was gonna be a demo of the actual game itself. I am disappointed! D:

I wasn't expecting much, they didn't give much, I don't feel much over this. Just meh.

Also, SXSW was accused of "going corporate"? The more you know!



Where does one go to experience such a wondrous experience? T_T



                  

PC Specs: CPU: 7800X3D || GPU: Strix 4090 || RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 || Main SSD: WD 2TB SN850


To be fair, none of the news covering it even HAD the word demo. If there was, it'd be mentioned, like the many malls / Best Buy tours Nintendo had.

Not their fault you, along with others for the umpteenth time, had your expectations too high. Keep them in check next time, if that's not a tall order to fill. At least you didn't completely hate it... I think.

Besides, if they did show a demo, odds are it would be the one they had since E3, and you (or another user) would probably STILL be disappointed for not having an updated version.

On the video itself, the mechanics are fairly interesting, but if the karts were faster (and the track was wider to avoid immense collisions), then we'd be getting somewhere with this technology.

When I looked it up it said Texas. You can get a similar experience at any Go Kart place though. :L

There was a demo of the game set up. It was not outside like the go karts. It was the first thing you see along with the Nintendo Museum when you walk into the event center.  Major lines.

Not enough anti-gravity. Those motherfuckers!

O rly!? I couldn't find anything on the game demo. Was it a new one, or the same from E3?
