Hello again, dear DDN readers. Today I’ll show you one of my favorite racing games: the latest installment of the Wave Race franchise, Blue Storm.
I won’t lie, from the first time I picked up the N64 game from the nearest Toys’R'us I knew I’d love this game to no end, just like the F-zero series (on console, I didn’t like the GBA game). Excellent graphics, water physics, challenging AI, and the classic ride-the-dolphin trick: this racer gave us a lot without asking for anything in return. And that’s just the N64 version!
The Gamecube version included new stages, better soundtrack, more characters, character color and jet-ski handling customization, and an even more difficult AI. Needless to say, the upgrade from anonymous helmeted characters on the N64 to complete personalities and names on the GC title was an excellent feature, giving us greater quality in our Wave Race experience. I completely love how your guide changes depending on your racer. It makes it a more real experience, being in a tournament and all.
The 2 videos below are almost the same, but in the first one I fail miserably because of my lack of practice over these months. . . and the other is the third try. What a difference! Enjoy!
By the way, I’m playing on expert on Souther island on Sunny day.
Here’s the other one. Yay for me!
Liked it? I really had fun recording these! Wait for more some time later!







Ive loved this series since the N64 :D
Am I the only one who used to spend hours trying to run over the dolphin in dolphin park?
Nope. I think everyone has tried it for some hours at first, don’t you think?
Thats good to know :D
I don’t remember that game. But looks very funny, If you still have it I wanna play with you ^-^
