    I knew that name was familair, the original game (or prototype as Eurogamer calls it) was available to play for free via Pico-8 on your PC or Pocketchip if you have one. Seems they're turning into a full game.

    "limited edition bundle on day one that includes a download code as well as a set of Neon Red and Neon Blue Joy-Con".

    If they have that in store, I'll definitely go for it.

    I have a feeling that bundle might go down in price quite fast. But pro controller is first priority after launch.

    I'm going to just invest in the wired pad for cheaper money, then see if they release a patch for my WiiU Pro pad to work with the Switch later on.

    I too would be well into that.
    Still though it looks pretty damn nice with some potentially interesting mechanics.

    I was thinking of Fast RMX but I've already got Fast Racing Neo, and the new game is a remake/remix of it.

    This seems to have a lot of added content, though I understand it still might feel like double dipping. I never bought the original so looking forward to this.

    It's gorgeous, by the sounds of it they've worked on the visuals even more, the handling in the WiiU title is fantastic.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,433 ✭✭✭Josey Wales


    I think that Fast RMX looks good but then I remember I fell for the hype on the Wii U version. I was really looking forward to that, I thought it would give me a WipeOut fix. Turned out that I hated the game. The feel of the game was just way too loose. It had a good sense of speed but the track design was boring and that awful crash animation got boring real quick.

    Never had FAST RMX or what ever the one before it was called.

    IF this shows up Day 1 on the E shop its a must buy for me.

    The game line up is not looking that bad at all now i might say the E shop is making up for it

    It's nice
    Looks like Wipeout, handles like a nicer Wipeout, gameplay has a FZero vibe to it.
    I bought it for €25 or so a couple of months ago so I won't be spending on Fast RMX but, if you haven't already got it it's a must have.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    I'd say any halfway competent game with a demo on the eShop on Day 1 has a good shot at significant market share given the perception of Bomberman and 12switch being overpriced at retail. I do hope there are demos aplenty

    Love Wipeout that's what is makeing me buy this.

    Wipeout Vita is properly the must perfect racer I have played ever on a Handheld and hope for the same with this id it can match or maybe make it better

    You must get the HD/Fury content for it.
    I bought it for my PS3 and it entitled me to download it for the Vita as well, as extra modes for the Vita title.
    The result is the most perfect Wipeout game since Wipeout 2097.
    Not to derail the thread but it's worth seeking out Rollcage Stage 2 and Powerdrome, both incredibly good, the former on the PS and pushes the system to its limits, the latter a much delayed game on the PS2/PC and Xbox, and a remake/sequel to a game of the same name on the ST/Amiga, a game that started the AG racing gig off.

    "Don't worry Wip3out, your big brother might be better known, but you're a good game too."

    I forget how many times I rented Rollcage on PS1 years back, solid racing game.

    The more I see of Fast RMX, the more I think I want it but will have to wait for a while to allow my funds to recover. Plenty of time to see how it fares and plays on the Switch. If a Wipeout game were to make the jump to the Switch, I'd be all over it.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,610 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    The first and last Wipeout game on Nintendo hardware was Wipeout 64, which had some issues....
    But a Sony property on someone elses hardware at this point in time... Sadly no, but just imagine Wip3out SE on the 3DS!
    Rollcage is a favourite series of mine, the effects they managed to squeeze out of the PS at the time, it was remarkable.

    Yah have all the DLC for it got it free as i have Wipeout on the PS3 that in its self was a good game but didnt have the magic as the PS3 one. Wipeout on the PS3 was the 1st game i played in 3D when i got my 3D TV years ago it did look fantastic. But we are getting a PS4 Wipeout and in 4K on the PS4 Pro its going to look Epic i just hope it plays like it as well.

    IT really makes you wonder why there has not been a new F zero in years dosint it ?. As i would think there is a market for it.

    I'd pounce all over an fzero game, especially if it had a soundtrack done like the Mario kart 8 track.

    FZeroGX is still an amazing game.
    As the levels whip around you and past it's easy to forget it's not in HD, just stunning.
    Must give it a lash later on.
