Heh. Good luck trying to find an arcade up here.... Closest place to have one is about 2-3 hours from my place.
Then again..... I'm not keen on driving that (ONE WAY) just to play.

I was just at Arcade Infinity today and they do have the F-Zero AX arcade. 
Since I'm such a n00bie at it, could someone tell me how to get started? I want to build the Dark Condor but how many points to I have to get to buy parts? And what's the best way to get a lot of points?
Thanks in advance.

I tried to do the drifting on AX yesterday.... argh... I failed miserably.
Do you brake before you turn the wheel leftwards by 20 degrees, or after you turned the wheel leftwards?
How do you know if you've succeeded?
This technique works with E grip machines that are light, right?

forget the 20deg stuff. it's only for the start. I set my 1'21 PR by startung the drift at the first corner (brake->turn the wheel->left paddle pulled and keep it pulled) then for each corner you only have to turn the wheel (always having the left paddle pulled). if you lose your drift start (it happens sometimes) it again (brake>turn...) you only need an E-grip I think for drift-turbo. if the car is light you're acceleration will be better
I've played AX around 65 times use rainbow phenix.
to build dark condor, you don't need a certain number of points. all parts have the same price. when you can choose a part among 6 (15000pts), if there is one of dark condor buy it otherwise exit and the next time you're asked to choose the part you may see one of them. I've put the name of the 3 parts of dark condor somewhere on this board

Hey KirbySim, I know that this is way off-topic, but it deeply concerns me because I got ripped off by a lady in Singapore. It is still illegal to copy games right over there right? I was on eBay and bought a "new and sealed F-Zero MV game" which turned out to be a very high quality copy, but still a copy, and the game wouldn't save. Also, is there a Nintendo of Singapore or something because Nintendo of America said they would report it to the proper area of the company. Dave, you can move this if you want, but I just need KirbySim to see it. Thanks!

I'm very sorry that a fellow citizen of Singapore did this to you.
Yes, it is illegal to copy games over here, much like everywhere else. However, I know of plenty of people/places that do sell bootleg games. For instance, I only have to travel 30 minutes or so to get the latest PS2 or GBA bootleg games.
No, there's no Nintendo of Singapore. Maybe that may explain why the GameCube is not so popular here. 
Here's wishing that Nintendo can do something for you.

No, the pilots have no effect on your settings or abilities.

Oh, sorry to answer your question this late.
I was playing at the one in the arcade at Bishan Junction 8. They have 2 standard machines linked to each other.
Last I heard, Jurong Point and Centrepoint also has AX machines. I didn't check them out myself, though - they're all the way in the West, and I live all the way in the East.

I heard that there is an web-site which has a F-Zero AX Machine Part Selection Simulator - does anyone know the link for that? (I know I have myself the Grampus part, but what cockpit and booster combination will make it a Rave Grampus?- anyhow, I'd still want to try and get that Dark Condor coz the name sounds a heck of a lot better).

It's ブレイブ イーグル(Brave Eagle) for Body, ダーク チェイサー(Dark Chaser) for Cockpit, and エウロス−01(Euros-01?Aeros-01?) for Booster.
Machine: ダークコンドル(Dark Condor) Body: D Boost: E Grip: E Weight: 870
Rave Grampus is the default one at the site. body: Splash Whale cockpit: Rave Drifter booster: Euros-01?Aeros-01?

Thanks again Midiman...
But I never thought that you're supposed to build a really crappy ship to do that crazy drift thing.

whoops- just one more thing... right before you race (on the condition that you're attempting the turbo-drift with the dark-condor), do you set your machine to maximum acceleration or maximum top-speed? (or whatever's better).
