Guys if we want them to release/remake the cruis'n collection or hydro thunder, BUY this Game as it will depend on sales. Hopefully sales do gr8 so we can get these remasters eventually.
This is one of the most informed reviews of this title I have seen, thanks for doing your research on the arcade version. Can't wait for my copy to come in the mail!
Just found your channel after searching for Cruis’n Blast videos. You did a great review, especially comparing the arcade version to the switch one. I bought the game already because I love arcade racers. Definitely going to subscribe your channel. You have more great content from looking at all your uploads. Those gameboy joy-cons are super cool.
I am planning on picking this up for sure. I'd love to see a crusin' collection on switch as well. Personally though, i'd also love to see a San Francisco Rush collection too. With a stunt course builder, online mp, and any cut content from the oringinal games.
Wish Sega re release outrun 2 (with or without Ferrari license), Sega Rally and Daytona, dynamite deka series (die hard arcade game), taito release the ray series schmup collection and snk release another metal slug anthology of all metal slug titles (including the games series mentioned earlier on) for Nintendo switch including physical release.. that would be awesome.. does the asphalt game franchise took gameplay elements or inspiration from this game franchise ?
Eugene Jarvis did tease potential DLC if Blast sells well enough. They no longer have the license though so that would be something that they'd need to renew first. Thanks for watching!
@Neiltendo Power I am enjoying this game so far, but I really do hope that Raw Thrills adds all the original Bonus Cars & licensed cars from the original 2017 arcade version: Corvette C7 Z06, Hummer HX, Lamborghini Aventador, Lamborghini Huracan, Lamborghini Veneno, Lamborghini Countach, & Lamborghini Diablo. I hope Cruis'n Blast fans spread the word & gives Raw Thrills feedback about this. :)
Cruis’n World is still my favorite of the series, but Blast is very close second. It’s just so much fun. I loved every second I’ve played so far. I don’t even care if the same tracks are recycled.
I do all my tricks by tapping and double tapping ( hell spamming) the R trigger over and over and I get first place more often than no ...sooooo you don't have to use A as all the reviewers are saying 🙄
Graphics 10/10 Race course 9/10 Fun factor 9.5/10 BUT, from what I can tell, there isn't a whole lot to hold you back or challenges. Hold the gas pedal down and go. The game keeps you on the track. Rubber band defeats the strategy effects. Am I wrong here? Haven't been playing it long
I kinda wish Raw Thrills ported other of their arcade games such as SuperBikes 1/2/3 (fyi, all the new courses in Blast that weren't in the original come from SuperBikes 3), I love that series. They are very similar to Cruis'n blast in terms of fast-paced action and wacky courses. They would need to take out a whole lot of live-action away from the game in order to keep it's age rating low tho.
Great review, while the game is fun it’s sad that even in 2021 we still can’t get 100% arcade conversions with added console content. I doubt it’s the switches hardware as there’s more demanding games (hell Asphalt 9 Legends, a free to play game has graphical details missing in CB) To me it was a budget title Nintendo ask Raw Thrills to put together in months and they did the best they could, I guess. If there was more time and budget I’m sure we would’ve gotten a much better product with all the bells n whistles missing from the arcade and then some.
Thanks so much! Beyond talking about doing an arcade trilogy collection on the Switch, Eugene Jarvis teased that they'll do DLC if Cruis'n Blast sells well enough. I do think that a lot of the compromises really came down to getting a solid 60fps out of the experience, but yeah I still wish it was a little closer to the arcade
No. Say what you want. Cruis'n for the Wii and for the GBA almost killed the series. Cruis'n Blast redeemed the series and made it quite clear that the Cruis'n franchise was not done yet. I will not give credit to those last two mistake. Because those two were dumpster fires and that is coming from someone who has been a fan of the series since it released back in 94 in arcades all across the world. Also, the fast and furious Racer. I played it in the arcades and it was even a horrible game.

I fully support this level of activism
Hopefully it'll also prompt a remaster of the old Rush series. They can leave LA. Rush out of it.
@@dekoldrick I loved the Rush games too! 2049 was probably my favorite

Thanks so much! It's so much fun. My physical copy actually didn't arrive at GameStop until today.

I fully support either one of those timelines! Thanks for watching!
I've been watching several reviews of this game here on RUclips and this is by far the best!
Thanks for taking the time to say that. Made my day!
This review is 100 percent spot on. I'm loving this game
Hey thanks so much! Happy to hear you’re enjoying it!

I would love to see rereleases of some of those Sega arcade racers as well!
I hope Lamborghini gets re-added as dlc or something. The only racing game on the switch with Lamborghini is Asphalt 9. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Eugene Jarvis did tease potential DLC if Blast sells well enough. They no longer have the license though so that would be something that they'd need to renew first. Thanks for watching!
Great to hear that this game is so good, cause I was also a huge fan of the older ones. I loved this video review.
This video/review is super well-done!
Hey thanks so much! Really appreciate it

I'm hoping for Blast DLC as well as that original arcade trilogy. Appreciate you spreading the word!
Has more of a rush feel than older titles. Atleast seems like it.
There’s definitely some SF Rush vibes to be had, but it still feels like a Cruis’n game to me. Thanks for watching!
This game is gonna fill that ridge racer hole I have in my tummy, for now.
It will have to do!
I'm really excited for this game, definitely buying it. We need that arcade trilogy HD.
Nice! Let me know how you like it!
@@NeiltendoPower this is my absolute favorite racing game. They did an amazing job. I'm very impressed.
Looks like a blast. Great review. Will absolutely be picking this up for a Friday night cruise sesh. Gotta get them Heli-Flips in.
Thanks y’all! I don’t know that there’s ever been a more perfect racer for the Grapple Palace
Cruis’n World is still my favorite of the series, but Blast is very close second. It’s just so much fun. I loved every second I’ve played so far. I don’t even care if the same tracks are recycled.
Completely agree! Thanks for watching!
It's finally out! Thanks for the reminder! 😂 Great review man!
Heck yeah! Go get it!
Spot on review !!!! Also loving the game as well
Thanks so much and happy to hear you’re enjoying it!
I do all my tricks by tapping and double tapping ( hell spamming) the R trigger over and over and I get first place more often than no ...sooooo you don't have to use A as all the reviewers are saying 🙄
Haha yeah you can definitely go that route too. Double tapping A for flips has been burned into my brain since the N64 days though
Graphics 10/10
Race course 9/10
Fun factor 9.5/10

Thanks for the info! I wasn’t really familiar with the series. looked this up and it really is like Cruis’n with bikes!

This was a fair well rounded review 👏 👌 👍
Hey thanks!
LooksLooks Fun aha ima get it.
The Nintendo Switch is the only console I play nowadays, too many fun games this looks like another fun pick up
Yeah, I really love the Switch. Loving my PS5 too, but I still play my Switch more often. Thanks for watching!

Low points in the series for sure. Thanks for watching!
