    It's a passable game, the visuals and track designs are really good but the gameplay is just a lame version of F-Zero. The controls aren't very precise but the button layout is great. My problems with is the difficulty and game mechanics. You can drive behind a player to receive a boost but so can your enemies, for them it's easy but for the average player it's harder.

You have make sure the opponent in front of you is exactly in front of you or won't receive any boost. The difficulty is also ridiculous., I started out with a pathetically easy set of races on the Grand Prix and then it suddenly got way more difficult. Tge best I could do in the difficult races was be 4th. These days the game is pretty expensive and personally I wouldn't recommend buying it unless you want to own every game on the Gamecube. Expand

    This is NDCubes Death Stranding. All you do is press A and then you get speed and sometimes you press boost but then you lose speed because I guess people dont deserve happiness. Also do not play this with billy mitchell (full name billiard michellin-man) he installs game shark on my tv. NDCube fell of hard after Amiibo Festival and you can see this here. Also shoutout to DarkSayian0 for aThis is NDCubes Death Stranding.

    The best Tube Slider can come up with is a fancy-looking plate carrying a healthy portion of "been there, done that." [July 2003, p.75]
  2. While multiplayer is a blast, the AI in single player mode (which you must be good at in order to unlock everything) is very unforgiving, allowing a single major screw-up at best before you have no chance at finishing in the standings.
  3. The competitors in Tube Slider are brutal and extremely difficult to beat. Racing using these controls is nigh impossible at first and takes a while to get used to, resulting in an unappetizing first course of gameplay.
