Fast Racing Neo (stylized as FAST Racing NEO) is a racing video game developed by Shin'en Multimedia and released worldwide for the Wii U in December 2015 via the Nintendo eShop, with a retail release in September 2016 in Europe and Australia only. It is the second entry in the Fast series, being the sequel to Fast Racing League. It is often compared to Nintendo's F-Zero franchise.[1][2][3][4][5]
Fast Racing Neo received generally positive reviews from critics. A sequel, Fast RMX, was released on the Nintendo Switch on 3 March 2017 as a launch title for the system.[6]
Gameplay
Fast Racing Neo is played using the left stick to steer, A to accelerate, B to brake, X or L to change phases, (colors between blue and orange) ZL and ZR to lean (drift) left and right respectively. Changing phases comes into play when, during a race, either blue or orange set pieces of the track are driven on. You would then change phases respective of the color to get a speed boost if done correctly. There are also phase boost pieces that will give you a boost through the air, or on to another part of the track. (I.e. over a gap.)
