WHERE WERE YOU in 2003? I despise, no.... I HATE all those fake zoomers and bitch late millenials making tons of YouTube videos on how great this game is, for the simple reason that it doesn't translate to the sales the game deeply needed back then. And i say this as someone born in 1995, that grew up with that game, and the Gamecube, and still own the original copy right by my side as i make this thread.
It needed love BACK THEN IN 2003. NOT TODAY, when the Gamecube is long gone. You didn't save the game when it needed help. Now you hypoocrites wanna come back when it's already burried.

FUCK. YOU.
I mean that.

I had a physical copy, I did my part

I was still in my dad's balls sorry

this but i was in my moms womb instead

You want to know why some of these games failed where they're more appreciated cult classics now? Because gaming wasn't as big then. A title having a million sales was a huge deal versus a drop in the bucket now. We've got tens to hundreds of millions more people out of the billions more since then. It's not simply zoomers, your dads and uncs whatever the fuck simply may not have played shit themselves because gaming wasn't yet the biggest profitable market of the entertainment industry on the planet. So a cult classic by today's standards is straight up off the radar or not in anyone's appeal in their heyday. That's just how it works.

i bought a game back in the day and still own the same copy now.

Nintendo supposedly didn't make another because they didn't know where to go from GX as for some reason they feel they need to reinvent the wheel every time back when they considered it.

at this point i am convinced they just don't care because Mario Kart will get better sales with less effort.

>>737657435
I boughed and still own it. what else you want me to do if nintendo is retarded?
Also FZero 99 proved Ninty can if they give a fuck, but they don't. They probably have some internal belief that they can't have more than 1 IP on a given game genre.

>>737657435
I remember seeing game on the shelves of Toy's R us and thinking it was the coolest looking game ever. Got it a few years later once I actually had enough money for a second hand Gamecube.

>>737657435
the gamecube was gay then and it's gay now. Thank christ the RE1 remake and RE4 were rescued from that gay purple dud

F-Zero GX still ended up getting a Player's Choice rerelease though, so while it obviously didn't do Mario Sunshine numbers. What it did do was pretty good for something as niche as a hyper fast anti=grav racer that's hard as fuck.

If you want to point fingers about not supporting the franchise, then you should be talking about pic. Not GX.

>>737658842
why release this game on Advance, when the DS was on its way? SAME for Climax.

Name a faker fanbase than F-Zero GX.

>>737657435
Thing is, The Big N had an unexpected hit with F-ZERO 99 on their hands and they've done fuck all with it. All they had to do was strike while the hype was hot and re-release GX with the following improvements:
>Higher resolution
>Better textures
>Better lighting
>Include all AX exclusive tracks
>Online multiplayer for up to 30 players
>Expanded custom racer options
>Track builder (like F-Zero X Expansion Kit for the 64DD)
>Ability to upload and share custom racers and tracks (like Smash Bros. Ultimate)
>New grand prix cups
>Custom grand prix cups (that can also be uploaded and shared)
Hell, they could've called it F-ZERO NX as a nod to the Switch's codename.
Instead they fumbled the bag.

I played the shit out of this game with my buds back in the day. I was absolute ass at it but we always had fun. I miss them niggas.

it's mid

>>737657435
Nagoshi, is that you?
>>
I was there, fuck you. Also it sold well enough to become a Player's Choice title, blame Nintendo for never making another one because Nagoshi mogged them so hard they didn't know how to follow it up.

>>737657435

so you are mad about people liking a game that you like...ok? go outside man you had enough internet for a day.

>WHERE WERE YOU in 2003?
I was here in my third world country. I bought a Gamecube and I bought F-Zero GX. What more do you want from me?
>>
>>737657435
I played it. It was good. I got mad that I couldn't unlock all the cool AX racers without jumping through hoops that 12 year-old me didn't understand.

You're not special for liking a game.

WTF i have a retarded brother

>>737657435
My guy kindly fuck yourself, most of the people that grew up with this game, or were around back then were kids and teenagers without a fucking job. you're yelling at people that were 8-16 years old at the time, who didn't have a reference point for the availability of vidya aside going to gamestop, EB games, toys r us, and the last dying funcolands.They didn't have money to buy the game. It didn't fail for any other reasons than 1: f-zero is niche, and 2: Nintendo greeded themselves out trying to make a mini disc the standard for their games, which only fucked them in the long run because developers hated those mini discs and their limited storage, hated proprietary "you must buy from us to get the discs" bullshit.

NINTENDO KILLED F-ZERO and no one else, because of their greed against piracy. Newsflash for Nintendo's modern bootlicker nigger fucks, PIRATES WEREN'T THEN AND WILL NOT EVER be forced to buy your game regardless of the availability of piracy. The 'If they cant pirate it they'll buy it' mentality is a fucking cope.

t.born in the mid 80's and actually supported it on my dollar with my min wage teenager job back in the day. Flashin "1995" like it means somethin, get the fuck outta here you don't know shit. I was bustin nuts before you were born kid.

>>737657435
It's crazy looking back seeing how hard Nintendo pushed the IP during this gen.
>3 GBA games
>Arcade machine
>Gamecube game
>51 episode anime adaption
And it still flopped hard.
It's easy to see why they're hesitant to bring it back.

Dear Nintendo: YOUR COCKSUCKING PRODUCT HAS REDUCED ME TO A GIBBERING MAN-APE WHOSE ONLY RESORT TO DEALING WITH THE ALMIGHTY FUCKING GRIEF IT’S BESTOWED UPON ME IS TO SCREAM AND HURT MYSELF.

Seriously, I am jumping up and down and throwing my shit in handfuls at the fucking television in some impotent primal effort to get the thing to work. I have been sitting here trying to enjoy your product – YOUR PRODUCT, YOUR GAME, YOUR CONTRACT BETWEEN DEVELOPER AND CONSUMER THAT THE CONSUMER WILL ENJOY YOUR PRODUCT – but instead the damn thing’s been crawling out of the console and taking warm shits in my gaping mouth. Swear to god, you should have just added a little door to the console through which a hand pops out and flips me off, because I am insulted that your QA or testers or whatever brainless shitstove three genes short of a monkey FAGNUT signs your games through thought that a person with more than a single fucking digit IQ could enjoy Story Mode Chapter 7. INSULTED.

WORK WITH ME HERE: The goal’s simple enough! Come in first! Hey, that’s fine, it’s just like playing the grand fucking prix; not a problem! Only deal is your cross-eyed team of tongue-slapping wunderkind decided to give the game every single fucking advantage possible TO THE GAME rather than me.

How in the fuck does Black Shadow – whose car is the heaviest and lamest piece of shit next to the Crazy Bear – suddenly become SO FUCKING GOOD that he can stay in first without using a drop of boost? Huh!? Why!? You never see this shithead anywhere near the top fucking 20 in a normal race. BUT HO HO HO THIS TIME HE’S MEGA-COCK, THE FASTEST FAGGOT IN THE WORLD. 1.21 GIGAWATTS MARTY, LET’S GO BACK TO THE FUCKING FUTURE.

But it’s not just Black Shadow with the magical powers, it’s the entire fucking lineup of racers! THEY’RE ALL FASTER THAN YOU. AND DON’T REQUIRE ANY BOOST.
>>
>>737661486
This is a known issue. The game has absolutely horrendous rubber-banding, to the point where the CPU will just outright cheat.
You need to stay in 2nd but close behind 1st for most of the race, and then boost pass them at the finish.
It's the only strat that works.
>>
>>737657435
I was 4 years old at the time, so sorry. I didn’t control what games my family bought.
>>
>>737658502
I don't even remember where my copy came from
>>
>>737661486
Sega made the game and co-made it with AX an arcade game so AI cheats like crazy likely for that reason.

the bigger issue is the Story Mode missions, to unlock everything you need to beat those on Very Hard and even all these years later i only managed that on maybe half the missions.
