A trailer for the Speed Racer Movie game has been released and it looks like a supercharged version of Gripshift. The trailer shows what to expect for the gameplay and Carfu style. It also has an amount of detail that has not been seen in other Wii titles.
Sidhe's Griffiths discusses in depth how the GripShift developer playtested, and then took that feedback to improve, their Wii version of the recent Speed Racer game, from Wiimote tweaks to difficulty changes.
With a slick 3D engine and a fluidity that stays locked to 60 frames per second, Speed proves an excellent substitute for F-Zero -- at least, that is, until Nintendo finally gets around to releasing the real thing.

Many of you will remember playing racing games like Gran Turisimo, coming back time and time again to gain increasingly difficult licences. Speed Racer had potential to be a thrilling racing title but shoots itself in the foot with sloppy design and a cringe inducing game engine. The dated multiplayer options do little to rectify the situation, leaving this title gathering dust on my shelf.
Unless you're a massive Speed Racer fan, avoid.
Nintendo need to make a new F-zero Game. It was one of the best game on the Gamecube, and it will be one of the best games on the Wii. Oh and they should make it online also.
None of this was Gameplay... Anyone who thinks so, probably still believe Halo 3 and Killzone 2 look like their respective trailers too.
Nice cg trailer.
Liked Fzero on GC but then the rubberband AI got annoying(and made it booring) and its too easy to win if you use all your boost in the end of each race.
The best looking wii game will likely be Metroid Prime 3, Super mario Galaxy, or Factor 5's project that they claim will max out the hardware.
it looks nice. i think developers are trying to push the wii now. its only been a year. im sure this years game for the second half of the year will look great.
