Pilot Wings   Totts

Now, I was impressed as much as the next person when the Super Nintendo finally made its way to these shores. When I saw Super Mario World for the first time I was in awe. When I saw Super Probotector I was scared witless, but still in awe. When I saw Shaq-Fu I was staggered by how bad a video game could be. But when I saw Pilotwings I was totally, totally amazed. This was a game and a half.

The biggest compliment you can pay Pilotwings, is that some eighteen years on from its original release, there’s nothing that’s even come close to replicating it – even with all the technical jiggery-pokery that today’s machines can provide. Even its N64 sequel – a truly fantastic game in its own right, can’t quite come up to its daddy in terms of pure nostalgic glee and class.
A true advert for ‘less is more’, the objectives are simple. Use one four modes of transport (bi-plane, hang glider, rocketbelt and sky diving) to pass your flight lessons and move onto tougher and trickier stages with an Apache helicopter and earn yourself the Pilotwings. Now, all this sounds rather tame, but when put into practice the results are beautiful. Not one SNES game uses the Mode-7 graphics chip to such great effect – starting from the beginning of your descent, the screen is able to be swung around left and right with stomach-churning accuracy (warning : don’t play just after a heavy lunch). Because of the Mode-7 and the SNES’ ability to rotate and scale everything fully, it creates a superbly lifelike effect as the ground slowly gets closer and closer, and nothing gets the old pulse racing like those last few seconds when you’re desperately trying to get your little hang-glider down in one piece.

Great sound is in evidence throughout, the windy effects especially adding to the atmosphere, and the presentation in general is top-notch. I can’t ever really recall a game being so relaxing to play, so able to make you feel like you are soaring through the sky gently whilst sitting in the comfort of your own home. Of course it’s not all tranquility and relaxation – the difficulty level is pitched just right, but it takes time to master and a fare few joypads have bounced off the ground over the years as my sky-diver did just the same thing seconds before. A think a few people were put off at the time by it being so hard to master (every slight move of your pad would seem to vastly change your direction) but to be fair, if it had been easy to get to grips with, the game could well have been all done and dusted in half an hour.

All in all, it oozes class – no surprise considering it’s the child of Shigeru Miyamoto (the main man behind Zelda, Mario, Donkey Kong, Starwing and more). No one quite like Shigsy and Nintendo can take a simple premise and make it so utterly charming that you’re still excited about it nearly twenty years on.

Pilotwings review   G@mehe@d
Pilotwings was released for the Super Nintendo in 1992, and had a mode 7 graphics chip built in the cartridge. If you don't know what mode 7 is I'll tell you, but if you do skip to the next section. Mode 7 was a graphics chip, that created 3D effects. Some games used the Mode 7 capabilities to the max by making 3D levels. Games like Pilotwings, Super Mario Kart, and F-zero. Some games only use Mode 7 for backgrounds and effects. The games like these are, Super Castlevania IV, Super Mario World, and Contra III. Some famous SNES RPG's use Mode 7, Legend of Zelda Link to the Past, Chronos Trigger, and Final Fantasy 3-6. If you want to know more about the Mode 7 chip click on the link below. Now on to the review.
The graphics on Pilowings are amazing! The game makes you feel like your actually flying. The levels are unique and special,  and as you get farther in the game you'll get effects like slippery runways, night time flying, and snow.
The sound is great too, the music is perfect and matches the flying stuff you'll be doing. The sound effects are good as well.
Pilotwings has a lot to offer. There are 5 different vehicles you can fly, 8 courses, and 2 bonus stages. 
Pilotwings will offer hours of fun and you'll be impressed by how entertaining and enjoyable this game is!
The difficulty is easy at first but gets insane as you get to the last half of the game.

Pilotwings Box Description

Are you ready to earn your wings at the most exclusive flight school in the world? Then report immediately to the secret Pilotwings Flight Club, where your training begins!
You'll see the ground twist beneath you as you jump from your plane and attempt a precision skydive (don't forget to pull your rip cord!). You'll relive the early days of flying as you bring your biplane in for a pin-point landing. After you master the basics, you'll be called on to test an experimental rocket pack, soar in a hang glider, and pilot an advanced attack helicopter in a hazardous rescure mission.
The realism is incredible as the Super NES� takes you airborne with multi-dimensional graphics, endless skylines and the freedom to fly wherever you like. Do you have what it takes to earn your wings? Then get going! You're late for your first class!
