When it comes to futuristic racers, Psygnosis’ WipEout series is the big wheel down at the cracker factory. Sony’s Studio Liverpool née Psygnosis was shuttered in 2012 and the series itself has since slipped from the limelight, but WipEout’s legacy still looms large. Instrumental to the very success of the original PlayStation, WipEout is arguably Psygnosis’ chef-d'oeuvre.
But WipEout wasn’t the only futuristic racing series Psygnosis put its stamp on back in the late ’90s. There was another, with one key difference. This one actually had wheels.
Big ones.
The Skull & Co. Nintendo Switch OLED Grip is a high quality product that surpasses anything else on the market.
The switch is extremely uncomfortable to hold. I have the skull & co grip, huge difference.
I don't have big hands or anything, so holding it for me is fine. It was the very rounded ends of the Vita that made it super uncomfortable to hold, my hands would cramp up using it for extended playtimes. I'm glad the grip is helping you with your Switch though.

Im playing it now and its fun. Could use more grip, less obstacles immediately after exiting tunnels and more opponents would be great. 8 is a little low for these pretty big tracks and racing at 200+ mph. Look forward to more updates in the future.
What's the difference between a spiritual successor to F-Zero and a spiritual successor to Wipeout
Obviously the game is an early working version, but i've been having a blast with the private release so far. Once it releases to early access next year, they'll most definitely have improved it.
