A lot of people, myself included, were disappointed when this was revealed, but this very quickly became an addictive, fun spin on a classic game. I enjoy this more than Mario Kart now.

[@greenbean4422]

I'm just glad people are finally opening their eyes and determining that Mario Kart 8 is super mid, and the only reason why people don't think otherwise is because we haven't had another Nintendo racer to compare it to, in over a decade Quote me, mario kart 8 is mid- they allow you to customize vehicles all for people to just choose cookie cutter meta builds anyway You have to ask yourself when you add something to a game: will this make it better?

[@CosmicMcRad]

@@greenbean4422Mario Kart is enjoyable in other ways, some people will still like it much more than F-Zero, so relax. Personally, although I love MK and F-Zero, I think Crash Team Racing is best.

[@harrisonmoore3841]

An instant classic

[@brandonwilliams6119]

Vinny’s very first time playing the 99 Mode, against bots for practice, leaving the starting area, going in reverse, realizes this and tries to crash out, tries to hit every racer but they jump over him, instead he’s taken out by the Tractor Beam due to ranking out. This will always be a Comedy Gold Vinny Moment! If Vinny ever does a best of 2023 video we need him going in reverse in F-Zero 99 as a clip!

[@BlueRiging]

And it came right after him admitting "oh no, I'm more stupid than I thought" about reading Mute City as Nut City.

[@LordLevitan]

While most people reacted ether very confused or negative towards this game, most of them changed their mind once they gave it a try. It’s very addictive. Definitely on a “wow, it’s actually good” side of “99 series” releases.

[@Slasher9485]

"I'm gonna play this again sometime." Vinny proceeds to stream this 2 more times in the same week.

[@ECCOstation]

Ironically, this is the game FZero was meant to be (imo). Massive amount of players, smashing into each other, taking risks and limited opportunities to pull ahead. Adrenaline and racing and violence. This is almost a perfected version of 2D FZero and we all collectively had an initial visceral "Ech" before remembering, oh yeah, FZero is fun!

[@FierceDeity35]

Not sure of the lore, but considering people presumably die from racing id hope adrenaline would be peaking.

[@ArtemusWolfwood]

F-Zero X bumped up to 30 racers from the original and even that felt chaotic at the time

[@ECCOstation]

​@@ArtemusWolfwoodthis is the true potential of fzero. This is the chaos it needed.

[@elgeniomaestro]

To be fair, they experimented with the concept in X, which was chaos with 29 AI racers

[@alexsilva28]

It's just so good. I'm amazed at all the game design choices they've made here, down to the menus and ranking system

[@strikermodel]

"All these top racists" "Accidently read mute city as nut city" "Squeenis" I love Vinny

[@Meta289]

I honestly don't understand why there was so much skepticism towards this, F-Zero is exactly the kind of game that lends itself perfectly to a 99-player battle royale, it really should not have been any surprise that it's really good.

[@dootdootington386]

I said the same to my wife. Captain Falcon literally punches a dude mid race and explodes in the anime. So this game is about what I figured the games were like.

[@Jazio_VT]

The thing that threw me off is that it's SNES F-Zero; same reason Joel was distraught in his streams. If 99 was based on X it wouldve had a good initial impression tbh. But now I think 99 is a lot more sick than it is; it improved SNES F-Zero and took away its flaws. I just hope Nintendo adds more maps and vehicles to it.

[@patrickloureiro351]

1. A lot of people are sour on battle royale as a concept due to it being tacked on to a lot of franchises to try and chase fortnite bucks (the phrase "f-zero returns as a battle royale" felt like a targeted soul strike) 2. The first part of the trailer felt like the most obvious lead up to a new game/remake possible so a lot of people were dissapointed when it was revelead that it was (semingly) nothing but the og f-zero but battle royale. 3.Most people just want a new gx style f-zero

[@Meta289]

@@Jazio_VT Basing 99 off of X probably would have been a little too tall of an order, since you do have to consider that it's 99 players racing on the same track at once. Even with N64 graphics, 99 players on more complex tracks with more in-depth physics is a bit much, especially for a game that's probably being made on a budget. SNES F-Zero was the most reasonable and feasible choice.

[@MaxxyBee]

mostly because battle royale games are overdone

[@GXAPlayer]

From being underwhelmed because its based on the original F-Zero to straight up getting addicted to a new spin on a classic. Miyamoto has done it again. (Pls new F-Zero nintender, a lot of newcomers are liking this, I'm sure they'd be interested in a new entry. I'm also huffing all the HOPIUM)

A lot of the reason for why "SPEEEN" spreads so much is editors, too. I think there were several content creators whose editors edit your speeen into the videos because they watch you, and then it spreads into that community even though the content creator themselves might not know about you.

[@JC21]

F-Zero 99 really is as fun to watch as it is to play. Probably because it's so fast-paced and unpredictable and there are so many possible outcomes with how many positions there are.
