Anyone still play or think about Stunt Race FX?

[parrothead]

I still do. I wish people would stop thinking it's just another racing game. Watch and listen to this video to understand why Stunt Race FX is unique.

If any one of the cars from Stunt Race FX appeared in SSBB as playable characters, then I would believe they would punch and kick with their tires, use their "honk + jump" move as their UP + B move, and use their turbo boosters as their FORWARD + B move. Some other things in the game can be used as their other moves. Even though, cars aren't really suitable enough to fight, these are cartoony cars. SEGA made one for Fighter's Megamix, which is the Hornet stock car from the Daytona USA series.

I still love Stunt Race FX - it was one of the games I picked up for the SNES off ebay recently. I played it briefly when I was younger and then later I tried playing it through a dodgy emulator.

But the actual game is great. I remember the reviews of the game when it came out and really wanting it. The clay models of the cars were brilliant and I wish I had one ;D

But I simply love the characterisation in the game. The 3D was a step up from StarFox (but as usual the PAL conversion suffered from huge black bars obscuring most of the screen).

I seriously doubt the cars would show up in SSBB as fighters, but I would love to see a trophy or two commemorating this excellent little racing game. Too bad it's unlikely we'll ever see a sequel since Mario Kart moved into 3D as well.

I never thought much about it when it originally came out, but I might download it on the VC.

I been waiting for a Wii for ages though. ;D

I'd like to see those vehicles in some SSBB stage; I'm just not sure they'd dedicate a whole stage just for this lone game.

I absolutely loved Stunt Race FX when it came out! There were so many cool modes, and the track design was brilliant. I played it all the time, despite its shortcomings.

I'm not usually one to complain about frame rate issues, but even at the time of the game's release, it seemed really choppy to me. And thus, the control, too, was sluggish. These were faults I was able to forgive at the time, but I hate to say the game hasn't aged well for me. I'll always have fond memories, but I can't enjoy the game now.

Of course, if Nintendo ever decided to make a new one, I'd be all for it!

The music is the best. Download the SPC! And Nintendo, put it on the Virtual Console!

For the love of...

Isn't there a Gameshark code to see the ducks from Duck Hunt? There was aanother cameo of some sort, don't remember.

[Fryguy64]

That's the first I've heard of it. Besides, if there is, they might just be ducks. The models on Stunt Race FX really weren't good enough to make ducks look like anything

I'll download this and check it out. I just recently got done with Star Fox 2, so I'm in the mood for another Super FX game.

Here is an orchestrated version of the title screen and demo parts.

[TV Eye]

I never noticed this thread...nor have I ever heard of the game. Was it on SNES? I might try it out...

[Fryguy64]

It was indeed on SNES. It was the second Super FX game. Just remember... it hasn't aged nearly as well as Star Fox did

[parrothead]

This is the only Stunt Race FX commercial I could find, and it's the American version in German. Here are two screenshots of the Japanese commercial:

Those models look better than the Cars movie.

Man.... all those animated commericals from the 90's make me wonder why there wasn't a TV show for every Nintendo game on the SNES. The Super Metroid and Zelda shows could've been live action.... and Mario and such could be animes...
