(To add to that, Bubble Bobble is probably in my Top 10 games of all-time 😁)

Yep, my first impression is that it's fun but not up to the classic standard of Bubble Bobble or Rainbow Islands. (Actually, I think all 3 are available on the Arcade Archives series on Switch?)

Co-written with Shane Taylor, who - amongst other things - played Doc Roe in Band of Brothers.

Would be great if lots of people watched this pilot episode because then mayyybeee we can make the rest of the series.

Criminally I don't have F-Zero on N64. I've certainly got a disproportionate amount of racers in my modest N64 collection, although not that one. How does it compare to Wipeout 64, which I really enjoy?

Definitely one of my racing highlights on N64!

I think social media / the internet makes life more complicated 😅 But you just have to hope the good bits outweigh the bad!

I think the best they could have done is taken more time to consider how to respond rather than making one announcement and then following up with another. But also the whole thing raised issues (and people!) that I wasn't even aware of, and if anything, created more of a headline.
