The Aggression of F-Zero X's combat

The jump from SNES to N64 brought up some incredible changes to F-Zero, a lot that has lasted to this day. But I want to dive in a little with the combat. Side attacking and spin attacking.
Not in terms of using them for speedy exploits, but rather...in the art of aggression.
And fittingly, we will be using Pico with the Wild Goose.

Everyone gangsta till Pico signs up for the GP thinking it's the Death Race.

[@probablyafemboy4668]

Fun Fact: Pico, in F-Zero lore, is an ex-military assassin.

[@aelspecto]

Fun fact: If you want to know more about his lore watch the f-zero ova, just search boku no PICO

[@pidge3807]

this is canonical how Pico drives and no one can tell me otherwise

[@Seighart]

Aggressive as hell just in search of people and actually not racing yeah that checks out right tbh

[@unison_moody]

Driving like a maniac and seeing all the stars in the ending summary was so fucking satisfying.

[@custom-r]

There is just no feeling like it

[@TEC-XX_619]

"Sometimes you just need to finish the job." Unfathomably based.

[@edremail9082]

I think this is probably the most accurate display of how Pico would race. While we know he’s an aggressive racer, I think it’s confirmed in GX that he was responsible for “The Huge F-Zero Accident,” and we can only assume that it looked similar to what is shown in the video. Bravo!

[@ikagura]

Pico the car destroyer

[@custom-r]

He came in like Death Wind on everybody.

[@dragons_hook]

I know GX is considered the best in the series, but I had so much fun playing X! Space Plant was my favorite track.

[@manuelmateo3392]

Has always been my favorite thing to do in F-Zero X, and exactly with Pico. Beautiful.

[@trekker105]

See also: X Cup, in which the randomly generated tracks sometimes have turns too tight for the AI. So you get to watch most of the rest of the field turn into essentially a super sized Rolling Thunder kill streak.

[@Trainlover1995]

Hell hath no fury like an ax-crazy green alien.

[@rabbidguarddog]

Way to finish that last lap...where are you going? I'm going back, But you finished in 1st??? Yeah and I'm gonna make sure I'm the only racer to finish.

[@crafter5458]

Pico is my favorite character in F-Zero. Pico my beloved

[@bad-people6510]

To this day my favorite racing game.

[@fra93ilgrande]

8 spare machines, insane! 🤣

[@Suwawako]

This is a pretty well made video. Are you able to hide the emulator bar on the top next time? I think it is distracting while viewing the gameplay. Otherwise nice job explaining one of my favorite games!

[@trace6314]

well now, wouldnt have expected to see *you* here

[@Suwawako]

@@trace6314 fkcimh love f zero

[@kid14346]

I love how everyone who plays as Pico makes it their goal to just murder the other racers... Can't lose if everyone else is dead.

[@Izashaxnin]

so statisfying to watch ⭐

[@CAGEMETAL]

clean hits ! I love a lot of these kills lol

[@bloodgod3281]

The best F-Zero in the world❤

[@kunioriki9304]

Do you have a video on how to drift every time I try it slows me down it feels like I'm using the break's.

[@custom-r]

I didn't make one yet, but WMJ's video has a part where he talks about Drifting: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6rVk4F_ltWmhpY

[@BrunowskiGaming]

Question: how could i play this game on PC?

[@custom-r]

You'd need to get a Nintendo 64 emulator. Project 64 is often most reccomended. You will also need a F-Zero X ROM to use it.

[@BrunowskiGaming]

@@custom-r thanks, i'll try and get these

[@BrunowskiGaming]

@@custom-r so i finally put my hands on the game, and it's PH*CKING amazing! Thank you for the call, was a really good one

[@squidyellotheinkling2474]

You’re probably not reading these anymore, but I must ask: how do you unlock the other… god knows how many machines? Death Race?

[@alexbooth1539]

Hi, how do I unlock the bottom row of machines please? Thanks

[@custom-r]

Beat Joker Cup on Master Difficulty.

[@EnheTheSecond]

l z r c↑ c↓ c← c→ start

[@alexbooth1539]

Wait, how do you get extra lives?

[@custom-r]

Take out five racers in a single race. After that you won't get any more even if you take out ten or fifteen.

[@blockmanvideo5635]

Wait, how do you spin?

[@custom-r]

On a N64 controller, Hold Z and double tap R (and vice versa).
