SNES F-Zero Port Town Trick

[Yoshigotho]

omg i used to do that

[mariogamer298]

that was my second game I've ever played

[screamfreak79]

This was my second SNES game as well. Third was Final Fight.

[enrique90000]

wtf? you are supposed to die!

[i8246i]

@enrique90000

No, if that machine comes out and drags you back to the track, its because you're performing an illegal stunt to try to cheat.

If he was going to die he would have died, moron.

[blackliteaceion]

@i8246i Don't call people names because they don't know something makes you and asshole...

[i8246i]

@blackliteaceion

No, the lesson here is if you don't know something, don't go and make a dumbass observation.

F-Zero is nothing new, you can get it legally fairly easily on two different consoles, and if you play more than 30 seconds of the game, you'll figure this shit out.

[blackliteaceion]

@i8246i ignorance is bliss...

[IRGEMINIMAN]

Confirmed shortcut for GP Legend!

[stewinsalot]

I discovered the white land II skip on my own, but I never would have thought of this one...

[khastvrokg]

You could do the same on both White Land I and II, but it's a bit more hard on White Land I. I've only done it once on the SNES Console...and was never able to do it again. I did this like when I was 8........about 12 years ago. :)

[Darkenixx]

Lol you just got placed back on the road :O.

Just like mario kart.

Only instead of getting fished up by a turtle on a cloud you get beamed back on the road xD.

[KirbyY15]

i gotta try that ^^

[gdement]

I was always annoyed that they didn't allow this shortcut.

It's not a big shortcut, just enough to be appropriate given how risky it is. So I think they should have allowed it.

As I remember, it lands you slightly ahead of the competition, but after the penalty you end up slightly behind. Been forever since I played it though.

[82drumhead]

Damn! I remember that trick. I dont think it really bought you any time if I remember.

[trondy89]

HHAAAAXX!!!!

[LegionX235]

He He ha! Nice try dude!

[NLBanditNL]

I'll try that the next time we play on our SNES!

[superhel]

It works on SNES!

[dingo931]

haha i remember it actually said in the instruction manuel that shortcuts weren't allowed. and if u try it, this happens. not really a trick, but if it seems like it to you then good job lol

[surfingthechaos]

Actually It does buy you some time regardless. Not much, but it still helps.

[imacoolguy23]

WIN.

[Armalizilto]

Heh heh heh I got RRRREEEEAAALLLLLYYYY lucky at that part!

[Victorialine67]

Asome trick but dont go trin this on ya SNES version peeps this b a emulator

[femstarlight]

It works on the SNES console, I've seen it done.

[CapsuleJX]

is it jumping from port town 1-2 or 2-1?

[Libertford]

No, just a really big gap around the first bend after the first two jumps of the track.... REALLY BIG!

[known619er]

thanks fo the vid, I love this game, I'm gonna go home and play it...its been about 10 yrs...when I here the music it takes me back.

[Jdeadevil]

Love that soundtrack.

[inthefade]

it is a good trick, but if you turn left intstead of right when you land, it picks you up and puts you down a lot faster.

[HollywoodTimes]

TO ALL RETARDS: You don't lose time you GAIN time by doing this trick. The machine picks you up and sets you down a little back, but you gain ALOT of time regardless because you skip ALOT of track.

[mwred007]

WOW!

[LucaPIRANHAMASTER]

you played it to death?there is someone that it played it more than you...ME!I still play it today and i made a modification of SNES9XTYL(PSP) that it emulates F-Zero almost perfectly!(Video & download coming soon...)

[jklmnop9999]

Did you just cheat in the niddle of a race?

[godverdegodverdomme]

"Did you just cheat in the niddle of a race?"

I always preferred to consider this a

secret shortcut ;P

[MarioWhoKnows]

I think with the time loss the machine picks you up and throws you back halfway you can simply be there without doing the trick, but it looks cool

[bohemiangrove]

How can this be a trick...you loose time and you are put somewhere behind? not really a trick. But good game

[wooterz]

What? It lets you skip the beginning of the track...

[bohemiangrove]

It does not look at the map, you can see it's the same

[skyrimian]

I see a big chunk of track skipped.

[nadavcat]

Great !

[THEUNKNOWN8]

its very easy....got it on my first try

[KenSkaii]

i once saw a weird trick in f-zero, except the computer did it. my cousin was racing and suddenly one of the computer cars did a huge jump across the field. it was very weird

[Efnut]

how do u boost?

[godverdegodverdomme]

"how do u boost?"

You boost at the press of a button,

I forgot which one exactly, but I

know you begin with 3 boosts at the start

of the race, and gain 1 additional boost

for each completed lap during that race.

[swallowedwholeup]

No, you start with no boosts, smart one.

[godverdegodverdomme]

"No, you start with no boosts, smart one." If that's true, it must be a mixup with the 'standard' model of racegames like these, always giving you 3 boosts at the start of each race. It's been years since I last played this. So, cut me some slack :} But I am correct on the part where you gain a boost when you complete a lap.

[swallowedwholeup]

Heh. Sorry. I bought the game maybe a month ago and I think it's awesome!...FZMV is cool too.

[metroidowns]

cool it looked like u were gonna fall in the outer backround where u blow up

[protoss1210]

that was awesome, did the healer-ship thing save you from dying or did it only redirect you? i've never seen that before!

[CrackStuntman85]

I love the music in this game (Mute City FTW)

[metroidowns]

big blue too for me

[CrackStuntman85]

Big Blue owns. Same with Silence, Red Canyon, White Land II and Fire Field

[nkwu]

I've owned this game since 92, and i've always mucked around with the second jump on that level, trying to see if it was possible to cheat.. I never realised that it was possible with the first jump until I watched this video..

I guess you do learn something new everyday..

[Dilbez]

i found that out on gp legend, but i didnt know you could do it on the snes version too!

[algodinero]

oh man , i cant stop watching this , the music is too addictive arff O_O i luv it

[purplepikmin03]

i knew that trick i's easy:)

[Mattyirish784]

what the hell.. crazy

[Tais1000]

This trick doesn't exactly help things: after the "trick" jump, you get set back to a spot close to the land site of the second normal jump, and, more importantly, you have to use your boost on an inconvenient part of the course. It's better to use the boost after the series of hairpin turns.

[algodinero]

holy shit , amazing :X

i play all the f zeroes since im a little kid and i always thought that the machine thing from the sky only can vanish your wounds by increasing your life...

[BarraBoii]

Wow cool

Good find
