Original Thread: Everyone talks about the Flight Club! Pilotwings, a VLP

 

Introduction



Pilotwings, released as a launch title for the Super Nintendo (at least in North America), was perhaps meant as little more than a Mode 7 demo. It's a quick, simple, unambitious, and fanciful flight sim. I always liked its pace-a real pilot student would need loads of training to be trusted with a solo plane, but Pilotwings throws you in without so much as a tutorial.

Besides the awful puns in the video titles I'll play this LP straight-I tell you what I like and how I play. I will also intersperse bonus videos of what happens when you do something very silly, like forget to open the parachute or fly the plane away. Basically this topic shows off a quirky quickplay and I hope you enjoy it.
