Idk man. I totally respect this game and wanted to love it so bad (I mean I went out of my way to spend $70 just to play it) but I just don't think my pea sized brain likes Metroid. I played about 5 hours and just got so lost, even guides couldn't help. Maybe someday I'll try it again. I just be stupid and dumb and stupid dumb right now.
My true childhood Mario Kart, if I don't count Mario Kart 64, Mario Kart DS, Mario Kart Wii and the Mario Kart GP Arcade games I would sometimes get to play (all of which are probably better).
I know everyone says Double Dash is the one Mario Kart that's worth going back to if you don't want to just play Mario Kart 8, but I disagree. Sure this thing is pretty old school, but it controls and looks so different than any other Mario Kart besides the original. The Super Circuit tracks are mostly really fun (fuck Snowland for them migraines tho) and getting all the Super Mario Kart tracks is a sick bonus. It's truly fun to get good at this game, as it feels so much more skill based than some of the newer titles.
I never got passed a few cups on 50cc when I was a little kid, so I'm glad I sunk like 9 hours into this to mostly complete it now. Overall it was worth it.
But man, the Choco Island tracks don't DESERVE the Sunset Wilds background and it's so SADDDD

Peppy, how do you expect me to "do a barrel roll" when it controls like ASS?
I'd love this game if it weren't for the fact that I hate it. I've put about 20 hours into it since it launched in 2016 and still haven't seen it's ending. I've "gotten used to" the controls, but just getting used to something is different from liking it. They're just awful. Plus the game doesn't look that impressive visually and the level design is so-so. I have war flashbacks to the spider-mech boss on Fichina. They absolutely BUTCHERED all range mode.
It only gets 2 stars because of the original voice actors and how sometimes, RARELY, you can get into a flow state with looking up and down from the tv to the gamepad.
But my neck still hurts, and so does my heart.
Good riddance Star Fox Zero.

Spent my final hours with the Wii U/3DS servers by messing around playing some of this. It's been a while since I played it, and it's not really one of my favorites, but it's definitely better than Sun and Moon or BDSP. We'll see if Pokemon Legends Z-A can expand upon the game somehow and redeem the lackluster post game.
