Wave Race is a game tackles the sport of jet ski racing. Being unfamiliar with this concept, I always thought that jet skiing was more of a recreational activity, much like sitting by the sand on the beach. This was my first time learning that there exists a competitive aspect to it, too.

Perhaps to simulate the unforgiving nature of the waves themselves, the game has you fighting against them as you pass through buoys left and right. I have no idea if this is how actual jet skiing is supposed to be but this proved to be distracting more than anything. Due to these conditions, I wasn't able to finish any race properly and always finished dead last.

It feels like Wave Race is more suited for actual fans of jet skiing. Perhaps they'd find more appreciation in it. Now that I think about it, maybe actual jet skiing would prove to be more enjoyable than this.
