I was at a local Super Wal-Mart today, and there was a Nintendo Rep there at the Gamecube booth, and they were doing a little contest thing with Tony Hawk 4. I got a little wristband-watch just for participating, and I got the Highest score in my timeslot so I won a Nintendo Backpack. The lady was like ''we should be having this with F-Zero, its newer'' and im like yea...anyways it just felt good to win something...

I scored 57,000 on my 2 minute run, BTW...not sure which level it was, the one with the logs and stuff...I dont own the game. I actually left before my timeslot was over, but they called and said I had won...so I gotta go pick it up.

Hehe I'd love to do one of those contests. I heard that they once did a Golden Eye contest here, but I didn't know it.

The cockpit view is too low to the ground IMO. I stick with the view directly outside of the cockpit one. I usually always pick the "first person" view, but in this game, I pick the one just outisde of FP. Must be because it looks like most racing games FP views from the inside and not the outside. *Getting very confusing, decides to stop*

Actually, my score wasnt the highest for the day, just the highest in my 30 minute time slot. And its not like there was a crapload of people participating...It was kinda back in the corner, I just happened to walk back there and I saw the table with the prizes set up, and the Nintendo rep asked me to play...not like they had signs up all over the store about this or anything.
