"The 90's Arcade Racer" kickstarter - interesting game in development
Howard_Casto:
I love the Wii U, (about to go play it here in a minute) but I'm not sure why they are releasing it on the console.... there isn't even a steering wheel available. That concerns me as I was hoping the arcade racer would be arcade centric (aka focusing on wheels, ff, ect). I know it's been mentioned that the game will support wheels, but I wonder if that's an afterthought or a focus.

They are releasing it on the console to make money! :)
It's a result of Nicalis getting involved.
They are also handling the gameplay so Antonis can focus on asset creation, so I'm hoping they don't screw it up.
Originally, Antonis said he wanted to spend a lot of time on the control getting it to "feel" like the 90's arcade racers.
In the interview they were both pretty animate about wheels being the way the game was meant to be played, so I think it is still a focus.
Unless the game is pushed out the door before Antonis is happy with it, I'm sure we'll get what we want.

Unity is awesome. You build your game in it, and with minimal effort it can be ported to many different platforms. I'm guessing that had a part to do with the Wii.

I wonder how hard it would be to convince the devs to add an genuine "arcade" mode for the PC version.. maybe a .ini setting or command line parameter that stripped away the main menu and required credits to play... that way you could build a 100% legit arcade machine with it.
