This game IS pretty cool but it feels a little above my skill at video games, so while I’m glad I got to check it out it’s not for me. I got to the first actual boss and the hit boxes felt frustratingly inconsistent, but that might just be me being bad at video games. I kind of wish NSO games had more detailed manual type things, as I’m not particularly sure what a lot of the collectibles do or why I should pick one type of projectile over the other…

The graphics and music are pretty good, at least. This is the sort of thing where I wish Nintendo had taken another crack at it via a reimagining of sorts because I do think there’s a pretty good foundation there, but given this is the company of “well we have Mario Kart so why would you want more F-Zero?” I guess it might be a little too close to Zelda? I don’t know, something a little more in the character action direction could work. I just think it’d be neat.
