Re: Feature: The Making Of WipEout

Shiryu

Ok, that was brilliant! To think "WipEout" came out of SNES "Super Mario Kart" while listening to Jam & Spoon's "Age of Love" is surprising, and new info to me. Tim Wright is far too humble IMO. It is indeed because of his work in the original "WipEout" I took on music making as a hobby. Nintendo has been neglecting it's own "F-Zero" franchise for way too many years now (I am looking forward the portion of "Nintendo Land" that has it, but it's no sequel to GX) and if now Sony decides to give "WipEout" a back seat, where will I ever get my future racer fix from!? I am just very glad to have been around in the right time to enjoy all of this so far in person.

Re: Feature: The Making of Super Play Magazine

My alltime favourite games mag! Still have a few dozen volumes that made it to Portugal. In the time where there was no Internet, it was Super Play that allowed me to build an extensive knowledge on all things SNES outside of Europe. I would have never knew of Front Mission (among many other games) if it was not for Super Play. It is also a testament of how hard it is to be a European PAL gamer...
