Title: Super Mario Kart - in a Motion Simulator!
Post by: David on May 03, 2008, 04:49:21 AM
Force Dynamics (http://www.force-dynamics.com/) is a company that produces motion simulators for trade show events and the like.  To demonstrate some of the capabilities of their equipment, they rigged up Super Mario Kart (http://themushroomkingdom.net/games/smk) with their motion simulator.  If you've ever wondered what Super Mario Kart (http://themushroomkingdom.net/games/smk) would be like in a wiggling chair, go take a look.  Sadly, they claim to have sold off the model they had programmed for SMK, so it appears that I might never get to try it out.

Man, all that vibrating going on would probably loosen my grip on the controller

I kept yelling, "Power slide! Power slide!" but he would never do it. :(

He got a feather but never used it.

Maybe the ceiling was too low?
