Zero Racers is simply one of the coolest looking games ever I don't make the rules

Nintendo saw me playing Zero Racers outside of the thing I bought cardboard for and psionically killed my 3DS charger after 15 years of service
I WAS LIKE "HUH, I WONDER WHY TIME TRIAL AND PRACTICE ARE TWO SEPERATE THINGS IN ZERO RACERS, THAT'S ODD, PRACTICE IS THE TIME TRIAL MODE IN SNES" BUT ITS CAUSE IT'S THE START OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP TRACKS FROM THE GBA TRILOGY OH MY GOD
I think Zero Racers is better than at least 4 F-Zero games. Maybe 5.
By the way if you're using Red Viper and want a (fairly) accurate Antonblast Red Room/VB mode palette (had to do the brightness values by eye), here ya go!
It's honestly a little funny to me that me and my friends have jokes about "haha what if you stabbed someone and it made a Dark Fountain" for years now and now it's like "Oh. That could maybe be a plot point."
Fortune's Weave having a lot of darker skinned characters is cool but also it seems like a 50/50 on if they're like, actual skin tone or dark gray ashy anime skin tone
Zero Racers gamerip has been approved on KHInsider, but since it's technically a new release it'll be staggered for actually being added to the site. Still feels crazy to *be* the person actually ripping the soundtrack for a new F-Zero game
So how the hell did Intelligent Systems make motion blur on the Virtual Boy for Dragon Hopper's teleport effect anyways
Virtual Boy NSO not taking 1080p screenshots on Switch 2 is the most annoying god damn thing cause it's impossible to use any photos from it for screenshots, but is probably decent for Switch 1
Kozue Ishikawa making music for 2 games that were cancelled BACK TO BACK is nuts
Zero Racers is an F-Zero game alright, it certainly doesn't fuck around on Expert and that's not even the hardest difficulty. I'm scared.
Nintendo was evil for cancelling this game 30 years ago I think
In less than an hour I will be playing what is effectively a new F-Zero game
With Zero Racers dropping in an hour and 40 minutes, I really hope it has some nonsense like this
The quest for the Mr EAD ending is going well. Ring Racers-ass clip.
Accidentally just evolved Pirate Gaster Theory into KAOS Knight Theory when joking around and then realized it worked really well God fucking dammit
People seem so sure of Ch6 being a Holiday Manor Dark World but I feel like people are forgetting that one of the songs that Kris can play in Ch4 is called Waiting Room Y'know like the part of the hospital with a piano that we haven't seen Kris play yet
Honestly if we ever get some low stakes Deltarune dialogue lore similar to the Undertale Alarm Clock I hope it's just like, a text log of every other team's school project and them procrastinating about it
Deltarune fans might be the first time I've seen people correct themselves into using pronouns that aren't actually stated anywhere yet but could be in a couple years
Still bummed that my legs are too fucking long for the Initial D machine
