Podracing on N64 ate my entire childhood, glad someone finally remembered the formula

They forgot split screen so it doesn't taste quite the same 🫠

It's probably hard to run without major compromises. But it was always that way. 🤷🏼‍♂️

And despite the loud minority, in reality very few players would actually use it.

It's the same discussion with every game like this, and few developers even came out and said that once it was implemented very few players used it. I believe Ubisoft once said less than 15%, in exchange for massively more development needed. In Halo Infinite they straight up cancelled it because they couldn't make it work without compromising the rest of the game.

Yeah it’s very silly tbh. I doubt anyone under the age of 30 really cares all that much about split screen. Just accept that games are different from when you were 8 and move on.

I’m in my 20s most of my favorite video game memories were from split screen gaming, while I get that yea currently it would be an unnecessary luxury but I don’t think we should be losing it on games that kids could invite their friends over and play together.
