Since when do 4 wheeled karts move on all three axis?

 

[Adam Scott Aukerman]

Since when do 4 wheeled karts move on all three axis?

It moves like that to simulate the turning, acceleration and braking forces on your body.

 

[radioheadrule83]

Since when do 4 wheeled karts move on all three axis?

From the explanation I read I think its meant to simulate the force you'd feel rather than the actual movements of a car or whatever.

 

[urk]

Awesome. I loved that game so much.

 

[MrDaravon]

Awesome. I loved that game so much.

Word.

 

[AlucarD.eq]

how much do you belive it will cost ? Multiplayer?

 

[urk]

how much do you belive it will cost ? Multiplayer?

I would imagine thousands of dollars.

 

[radioheadrule83]

Thats a Force Dynamics 301 without a wheel attached to the projection screen. Normally the projection screen is attached I think as well... it weighs about 700 pounds and costs something like $30k :lol :_(

Couldn't they get someone that was actually good at the game to play it?

 

[urk]

Translation: So jealous.

It's in the description. This is his first attempt at playing MK on the simulator and the first time he's played the game itself for over a decade.

 

[CTLance]

Hey, that's neat. Totally unnecessary, but neat.

Also, :lol

 

[RevenantKioku]

Er, seemed pretty obvious he was doing "bad player" things to show off the various motions.

 

[RumblingRosco]

Er, seemed pretty obvious he was doing "bad player" things to show off the various motions.

The information that goes along with the YouTube video, said the guy is used to realistic racing sims and hadn't touched a Mario Kart game in 15 years; some of what he did (like random jumps) were intentional but some of it was just him sucking. Regardless, it was a good demonstration, and a kick ass simulator.

 

[radioheadrule83]

Its so great to see the original Super Mario Kart made even more awesome, I'd like to see this done for other games too...

F-Zero GX would be crazy. F-Zero AX (the arcade version) moved you when you turned the wheel, but it was just accompanying motion rather than a force-simulation... imagine this thing just tilting right back with the speed and stuff, it'd be crazy.

Or even Rainbow Road on some of the newer Mario Karts, like the new Wii one... those courses are like freakin' rollercoasters.

 

[tnw]

this reminds me of earthbound kart.

want!

 

[Haunted]

That's fucking ridiculous. :lol

 

[Crushed]

"Since 2004, Force Dynamics has built a reputation as a world leader in driving simulation systems.

"We're releasing this video anyway."


:lol :lol :lol

 

[batbeg]

That is pretty awesome.

$30, eh?

 

[Struct09]

Amazing

 

[Christine]

He didn't use the feather, probably he was concerned for his safety.

 

[MoeB]

IS THIS BETTER than mario kart WII?

 

[Threi]

when he hopped :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

Want.

If they used this for Mario Kart wii...you'd suffer some internal damage from staying in first place too long :lol

 

[RiskyChris]

:lol HOPPING :lol

 

[mj1108]

:lol :lol I want it to hop.

 

[Prime Blue]

He didn't even get wet when he drove into the ocean.

 

[radioheadrule83]

Well I don't know about you, but I am indeed curious to see what this thing does when a blue shell hits. It'd be good for bike wheelies!

 

[Alfarif]

That's definitely cool. +1 for a good find.

 

[RocketDarkness]

I wanted to see him use the Feather and get launched through the ceiling. =(

 

[GaimeGuy]

:lol

 

[Eteric Rice]

What happens when you get hit by a blue shell?

 

[CurseoftheGods]

SMK didn't have the blue shell you nub.

 

[Crushed]

4. Yes, FZero would be very cool. Maybe it's time to write that pulse width modulation output...

Oh God, F-Zero would kill you.

 

[CTLance]

Oh God, F-Zero would kill you.

...and all the onlookers. A new term would have to be coined for it: Awesome overload.

Just think of the possibilities! It's the ultimate tool of destruction - painless, highly entertaining, 100% lethal.
Use it to execute criminals. Drop it on terrorists. Hide it in voting booths. Endless hours of fun - and maybe the occasional ascent to a higher plane of existence. Earth would be void of sentient life as we know it in three years flat.

Why would he be using a Dual-Shock for F-Zero X.

I could buy that it's just a funky GC controller for GX, but the TV isn't hitting him hard enough.

 

[CTLance]

Have I already mentioned how good it is to have you back, junkwaffle?

I agree with the "Want!". I'd even add a "Very" in front, for added engrish bonus points.

 

[Jive Turkey]

F-Zero GX would be crazy. F-Zero AX (the arcade version) moved you when you turned the wheel, but it was just accompanying motion rather than a force-simulation... imagine this thing just tilting right back with the speed and stuff, it'd be crazy.

I would love a 360 degree gyroscopic F-Zero arcade racer like some of the dogfight arcade games in the early 90s. You know the ones that cost like $5 a credit.

 

[StickyFingers]

That looks cool, too bad they picked the wrong MarioKart for it. Should have gone for DD or the Wii version, but that's just my opinion.

 

[grandjedi6]

Wow that guy sucks at Mario Kart

 

[GeneralIroh]

sweeeeeeeeeet!!
would be awesome with GT4

 

[Bernie]

Wow that guy sucks at Mario Kart

That's to show how great the simulator works in a couple of situations.

 

[Haunted]

:lol :lol

That was pretty much my experience with the later levels of F-Zero (G)X. Even without a force simulator.

 

[shuri]

is it me or some of the motions were not in sync especially when he was turning? It looked completly off.

 

[PjotrStroganov]

sweeeeeeeeeet!!
would be awesome with GT4

If you check some of the related videos, you'll see that they only use it with racing sims.

They can only link it up with a pc, I assume that this setup was done via an emulator. Very cool, I'm all green with envy. Check out the Richard Burns rally vid
