F-Zero.
Give me a game where the WiiU pad is the cockpit, and the screen the third person view,
I'LL DIE HAPPY.
And Miymoto doesn't think it deserves a sequel because it's not creative enough...
So, being the most consistently critically acclaimed racing series of all time, have track builders, online capabilities before the internet (in Japan only), a random track generator and other countless advancements is creative enough...
And yet all the Mario Party games are.
Mitmoto does not think it's creative enough. See Mario as Irony.
There is no way to understand how much of an effect the first F Zero game had on the racing genre of games. Literally every racing game after it has been partially based on it. It IS the most important racing game of all time. And many other game designers have admitted this. F-Zero X and GX only helped cement it's legacy and prove that racing games can be difficult and cater to a core audience. And then, boom, Miyamoto loses interest, and it just dies.
