FAST (Video Game) | comment |
FAST is a futuristic racing game series similar in style to the F-Zero series and made by developer Shin'en, creators of Jett Rocket. It is set in the same universe as Nanostray, with a lot of locations and fictitious brand names taken from that series.The series' signature mechanic is the ability to "phase shift" or change the color of your car (from white to black in Racing League, and orange to blue in NEO and RMX), which allows you to take advantage of different parts of the track. Matching the phase of your car to the phase of the track gives bonuses such as boosts and jumps, and not matching your phase on the other hand can slow down your car or even send it careening to its destruction.Like Shin'en's previous WiiWare game, FAST Racing League manages to cram an impressive amount of graphics and gameplay into so just 40 megabytes of data, pushing the Wii to its limits. In 2015, a sequel, FAST Racing NEO, was released on the Wii U, followed by FAST RMX, an Updated Re-release of Neo on the Nintendo Switch, in 2017. | |

No Plot? No Problem!: Here's a bunch of machines that can travel at supersonic speeds. Here's some cool futuristic tracks to race them on. That's about the extent of the plot. | |

Bilingual Bonus | |
FAST (Video Game) / int_294ed981 | comment |
Bilingual Bonus: Several course names: Sunahara Desert, Sunahara Plains, and Sunahara Valley: "Sunahara" (砂原) is "sandy plains" or "desert" in Japanese. So...Desert Desert and Plains Plains? Hibashira Speedway: "Hibashira" (火柱) is "fire pillar" in Japanese. The course takes place in Lethal Lava Land with pillars of lava erupting all over the place. Mori Park: "Mori" (森) is "forest" in Japanese. The course is set in a forest. | |

Misbegotten Multiplayer Mode | |
FAST (Video Game) / int_2b9272d7 | comment |
Misbegotten Multiplayer Mode: The HD games have both local and online multiplayer modes, with RMX also allowing local wireless play. Unfortunately, online play has one glaring problem: There is no option to join a specific friend or to create a private lobby. Furthermore, RMX limits all online play to Subsonic League, not permitting players to play in Supersonic or Hypersonic Leagues. | |

Death Is a Slap on the Wrist | |
FAST (Video Game) / int_50727f8d | comment |
Death Is a Slap on the Wrist: Dying by falling off the course or hitting an obstacle only sets you back a few places, rather than making you forfeit the race as in F-Zero. Averted in League's Challenges and HD's Hero Mode, where blowing up fails you the run. | |

Artistic License – Space: The Kuiper Belt course appears to be set dangerously close to the Sun, already an example of this trope in and of itself, meaning that it cannot possibly be near the actual Kuiper belt, the inner rim of which is at least 2.7 billion miles (or the distance from the Sun to Neptune) away. | |
