I’m the player “Silly Goose” at 12:32! I saw your name in game and had a feeling I’d be in your video! 😂 I was so nervous on that last race and I ended up crashing! Lmao. Congrats on the 3rd place! Edit: also at 14:21 we both hit a red bumper. Lol
Pretty bullshit rule tbh. In 99 at least. Skyway is specifically supposed to be a come back mechanic to give a second chance to those that fell behind. The rank out mechanic is way obsolete with that mindset, you give racers a reason to keep racing and hope for a high place despite a bad start, but then you leave in a mechanic that kicks them out of the whole race/gp over a bad start? Pretty counter productive.
@@AshkarBehek0 it's not always a bad start, it could be because everyone who was behind passes you in Skyway and you get Ranked Out. The rule was BS on the SNES 32 years ago, but the point is that you need to be fast in order to be around, and you don't get the joy of being overlapped in races.
It would be a really missed oppotunity if they don't add Ace Cup/League from BS Grand Prix 2. The five tracks from that league are: Mute City IV, Big Blue II, Sand Storm, Silence II and Sand Storm II.
I love the love this game is getting and I'm almost allowing myself to hope it'll lead to a new standalone F-Zero game launching with whatever Switch 2 ends up being actually called. That being said, I am going to hear the little "spin attack not ready yet" noise in my sleep tonight.
I have to hand it to Ryu. Despite all odds against a lot of higher level players, he still manages to be victorious! Fire Field looks pretty awesome in this game! I wonder what more Nintendo will do with F-Zero 99 now (if anything)?
There's supposedly some remixed courses coming. Someone found a file in the 1.1.0 update that has an overhead view of a course named "Death Wind 1 Remix".
@Sherf... I'd love that too, but I don't know how likely that is. Before the 1.1.0 update, there was supposedly placeholder data for a course named "Forest" (the same name as the series of Forest courses from the lost batch of Sattelaview courses). It has been removed in the 1.1.0 update, however.
@@Rivalseeker I didn’t actually know about the “Forest” placeholder, that’s actually really interesting. I wonder if they planned on adding it at some point but either tried hiding it or scrapped it. Maybe the same with Metal Fort.
Excellent work on this. Am glad to see F-Zero 99 content return. It's just as stressful as I remember. I don't think the rank out system changed. Pretty sure we ranked out if we took too long to catch up from the get-go. I could be misremembering, but I don't recall seeing an update for that. Was just the first time it happened to you in that way.
You should really upload more F-Zero 99 videos bro. I played the original F-Zero for the SNES when I was 10 years old. I absolutely loved the game back in the days. Thanks for sharing!
Watching your reaction to getting ranked out had me rolling, it's been that way since the beginning, however you were always good enough to avoid that situation lol. You'll be back in the swing of it in no time, you at least got a win!
Guess he never wondered why the game kept warning him that the bottom was about to rank out throughout the race and then the number magically getting lower the next race. Or wondered why there were always only 20 left for the final race of a grand prix (or maybe he for some reason thought always exactly 79 players kill themselves by the time the final race starts).
Honestly, I think ranking out is much worse than crashing out. The former is basically the game telling you that (Sonic voice) "You're too SloOoOoOow!"
Love the F-Zero videos! I like the Classic mode and that they’re updating the game too keep it interesting❤ some new tracks and perhaps 2 more cars would be sick tho (White Cat & Black Bull would be the obvious probably but maybe Little Wyvern could be a cool Starfox reference or someone more obscure from F-Zero X potentially). Also A F-Zero X remake or a version like this game would be the dream for me!
36:05 Actually, the skyway is programmed to never drop you into a pit. If your skyway runs out while you're over a pit, it won't drop you until you're on safe ground again. So it's actually optimal to time your skyway so it runs out over a pit, because then you get extra skyway time.
1/29/24 MY ONLY problem with this 🎮 is they could've been way MORE creative with making the other 99 cars look different from as the 4 originals 🏎already present in it.
I liked your "I finally played" series, maybe something like Hades or dead cells? Another souls game would be good too, feels like forever since you did elden ring
Oh snap, so glad this was back. Nothing against the Wonder series, but this is so much better IMHO for follow-up videos versus Wonder speedruns with their unskippable cutscenes.
Hahaha. Ranking out is always a thing, it’s just you never notice it because you’re too good + it gets REALLY tight only in Grand Prix (in normal cut off is like 50)
Grand Prix deathwind is where it's the biggest danger. Everybody who makes it that far is pretty good and the map is easy so hanging back for skyway is dangerous. One missed boost pad or people passing you on skyway when you think you're safe can end it all.
Honestly I'm surprised you never heard of getting ranked out mid race. That has been in F-zero 99 since the beginning. I CONSTANTLY get ranked out in the Knight league on Death Wind 1, Ive never made it to playing Silence because of this. As for you, you were in 29th but in the last second got overtaken by 3 people, bumping you down to 32nd place which was beyond the rank out limit. Get ready for one mistake ruining it all, its what all of us in the lower ranks have known for so long
Do you ever plan on coming back to this game? They released a somewhat decently sized update but ive barely seen anybody cover it in a video. Love the vids btw.
Hey ryu, great race!! In answer to games to play, was wondering if taking any more shots at the ff VI randomizer or any challenge runs on the new re-pixel versions. I watched your ff I one and tried the same, definitely better with a white mage 😂
What does headmate mean? I am imagining it's some kind of British for 'best friend' but I can see it being something else as well and am contextually interested....
@@Matthew10950 oh dear god no i would never be british we live in the same body and since we therefore share a brain we use the term headmate think d.i.d but also not rly cuz we don't have dissociative amnesia or anything and also just don't wanna put a disorder label on it, it's just kinda How We Are
@@Matthew10950 i mean i'm polyamorous i have multiple partners, and i have other headmates as well it's just that eri in particular happens to fall under both categories
I've been playing this game for about 1.5 months now and I am skill rank S17 but I'm honestly so tired of the blatant cheating from the bot cpus. You can easily tell that they are a bot if they have the default color for that vehicle and their player card has the default blank background, usually with little or no badges. Furthermore, maybe you have noticed this as well, that the bots are on a 'timer' for lack of better words, to complete the course in a given amount of time. Because of this, oftentimes when I bump a bot, even if I full speed grind them into a wall with a spin attack, 9 times out of 10 they will lag teleport around then appear on my opposite side then lag teleport ahead of me. The reason I know they are bots is if you look closely at the muffler of the vehicle whenever they do this, THEY DON'T EVEN USE A BOOST. Even when I am using the Fire Stingray (best top speed) and I'm at full speed and I bump into a Blue Falcon bot, they somehow race ahead of me and by that point I can't afford to boost because of stingray's poor recovery and durability then they cheat me out of a win. At my level of S17 skill, there are very very few players in an average game that are on my level so the rivals are 3/4 bots most of the time. I know this because it will be the same player's name of a real player that follows me to every gamemode I select. I enter a Grandprix? They are there and beat me by 2 seconds. I then go to team battle? They are there on the enemy team and beat me. I enter F-Zero 99 mode? They are there and beat me. I've played random different modes back to back to back with 0 time in between matches outside of loading and have the same 'players' follow me for up to 10 races in a row. It's not a coincidence and it makes me want to quit this shit game.
When are you going to finally retire mario maker and start being a real gamer. I guess mario maker people are so popular they have taken the internet hostage cuz that game is complete dog crap yet my favorite creators are slaves to the game
Real gamers actually get paid for playing games and they don't need to prove anything to anyone. And it's not like Ryu only plays SSM he can play whatever he wants outside of RUclips. You need to understand what is a job though.
So happy more people are playing F-Zero 99. Hoping to convince as many people as possible.

I am really glad RYU came back to F-Zero!!! Maybe we might see GX Diamond Cup and story mode (; either way another win for F-Zero fans
Ryu: Wait, I got ranked out mid race?
Me: Yes, that's how this game works, just like it did 32 years ago.
Cerified skyway moment

@@SheonEver Zoomers and most Millenials will never know the 90s kid gaming struggles.
As an S20 player, that first King League attempt was inspirational. You even got a fantastic use of the skyway in Fire Field! Congrats!

@@Rivalseeker That's actually pretty cool! It would be neat if they even ported over some of the courses from the GBA F-Zero games.
Personally hoping they release courses from the BS Prix (Ace League). I know it’s a long shot but it would be really cool to see.

14:04 That last lap had me on the edge of my seat, *_screaming,_* rooting for you!
Glad to see you playing this again 💪🏼
When you're boosting, avoid the jumps. You'll go faster boosting on the ground
@ryukahr 6th on Fire Field on your first go is frickin crazy.
Please continue your F-zero GX journey
So happy to see this video pop up!! Really enjoy these

Finally thaaaanks, you needed so long, now i bought an Oled for myself and the Classic Mode is perfect, so much Nostalgic Momenta.
Cool i raced you in the 2nd Mini Prix in Mute City 3, in the last lap i was the falcon named marci im glad i didnt kill you :D

Ryu is the protagonist of the f zero anime
What I have learned: F-zero 99 is about riding a bike.
Clicked this so fast. Glad to see another Fzero vid.
God bless you, I love this content. Thank you ryu! Keep the F-zero 99 coming!
“Dude red guys on this part is just unfair ……….. Ok are there enough red guys?!”15:07 hits 1st place into a red guy and wins race lol 😂
More F-Zero!
Man, just _watching_ these races is exhilarating!
These videos are a lot of fun. I'd be happy to see a few more of these
F-zero will stay alive!!! 🙏🏼

15:15 was almost exactly what happened last time, and on the same track lmao!!
Really enjoying your gameplay in this game. Thanks for sharing
LETSGO! F-ZERO 99!
This game is great, also love Final Fantasy randomizers!
Baby, i swear...this NEVER happens to me!
More F-Zero!!
In Akuma/Gouki voice: "GX Story mode is waiting for you...boy...." 👹
Bruh, we want to see you play more GX!
Oh no, Ryu, you upload on this channel so infrequently that this wasn't in my recommendations.
More of this please
Do you ever plan on coming back to this game? They released a somewhat decently sized update but ive barely seen anybody cover it in a video. Love the vids btw.
F-Zero revival!
More F-Zero videos pleeeeeease!
So you came back to F-Zero, will you also come back to Mario Kart 8? I missed those contents a lot.

I agree, some kind of FFVI challenge run with the pixel remaster would be fun to watch!
Glad you got your Internet fixed after the live stream crashed yesterday 😂
I died while 3rd place in a mini prix today AT THE FINISH LINE OF THE FINAL RACE (only level 27) and I thought of you 😅 This game is fantastic
Look at all the Samurai Goroh players!
Play adventure of link 😍
destroying grey cars increase your max healthbar, 7 gives you the full bar
Would you consider giving Monster Hunter a try
FINALLY!!!!!🎉🎉🎉
Yessss 🤣🤣🤣
More Fzero vids!
Yeeeeeeee let’s go fr
MORE F ZERO!!
Woooooo I'm ranked way above RYU. Confidence boost.
We need some Mario kart items! Just because Nintendo can
Perfect 😂🔥🔥🔥
upload More, love the content
I'm surprised you didn't die at 6:57 before you actually did.
You’ve never ranked out because you’re not a noob like us haha!
Lets gooooooooooooooo!!!!
FINALLY
They gotta add more cars and for sure balance patch golden fox ... The fox is too op
But game is mad good !
You know what Ryu .? I think you should prooobably upload another video soon... Heck, why not tomorrow?? Lol ;D
More of this
It be great they do f zero x 😢
FZ99 is awesome, I just fell off of it because of SMRPG and all the multiplayer games I'm doing with my wife and buddy instead.
8:04 “spoiler” the game came out in 1990 lol.
Golden Fox was always *ss, sure it got some acceleration but the massive reduction in stabilty and constant ice physics are not worth it.
I may be wrong but I constantly see someone called Ryu as my rival sometimes... It may be you? (I'm ElQuiltro, I usually spin a lot on lobbys).
Took ya long enough lol
I have some 2024, no 23 sry, also I am very picky
Please play f zero x it's my favorite in the series I wanna play gx but see if u can get the expansion pack bc they got more stuff there
