N247 writes: If you were to ask me which N64 games I would like to see remade or given an HD makeover on the Wii U, Wave Race 64 would be on the top of that list. Super game developers, Shin’en Multimedia also agrees. During a recent interview, Shin’en CEO Manfred Linzner shared the love for the game and how they wouldn’t mind working on a Wii U version of Wave Race if given the opportunity by Nintendo.
Shin'en Multimedia, the developer behind Nintendo Switch launch title Fast RMX, has teased an upcoming announcement for the console.

Shin'en have always produced technically impressive games and it looks like they're keep up with that tradition here. Hopefully it plays as good as it looks... I think many of us need to scratch that F-Zero or Wipeout itch.
Third parties could learn a lot about developing great Wii U games from Shin-En.
It comes from a desire to hammer the hardware until it bleeds. Shin'en are ex demo-sceners from the Amiga and PC who went under the name Abyss: http://www.the-leaders-of-t... - similar to how some of the founders at DICE were members of The Silents, another Amiga demo group from the 80/90s: http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...
It's in their DNA to push the hardware as hard as they can :)
NWR:"In this interview, Daan has a chat with Martin Sauter from Shin'en. The team has brought various games to Nintendo systems and they are currently polishing FAST Racing Neo to perfect shine. The interview talks about the decision to make the sequel, the variety of content and the options that are available to the players.''
Wave Race Wii U + Shin'en = Take my money!
great games making a comeback, nice! now if i had some chicken wings i'd be in heaven!
Wave Race and F-Zero X, for DAMN sure \m/
I would buy a Wii U if this happened.
They should be allowed to make any game they politely ask to make at this point, IMO. Like Nintendo has done over the years, Shin'en has proven that the wait is worth it because their titles have the best production quality. Let them do Wave Race for the Wii U! It would be $20 or less and would be better than if anyone else did it.
This would help with the lack of games.
