Level 7 Preview: Trains, Trains, Trains, Bulls?

Wedy here and we have some EXCITING information to share with you on our next Versus Mode course… JINKO EKI STATION. Why don't we see what ABE WATANABE from Nippon News Broadcasting Concern has to say about this brand new course?
Great! So back to the course.

JINKO EKI STATION

So, in this course the contestants will start off on top of a speeding Bullet Train heading from YAMA DORI (where the Steamy Monkeys live) all the way to the busiest train station - JINKO EKI STATION. Expect there to be daring jumps, insta-kill falls and even.... a herd of bulls?

Don't expect the madness to calm down when you reach the station, those salarymen are everywhere... and where did I put my train pass? I can't get through the ticket gates without my Railway Jasmine (RJ) Pass!!!

I asked the developers for their thoughts on the course:

Unfortunately JINKO EKI STATION won't be available to play until closer to release so stay tuned fore more updates.

UPCOMING UPDATES

Rumour has it that a preview of Story Mode and the elusive Level 8 (NEO JINKO) will be available soon. My sources reveal that something FISHY is happening... Maybe they're preparing some exquisite salmon persimmon leaf sushi for me and the contestants... Hold on... But I'm allergic to Salmon... Well, that sure was interesting, wasn't it viewers?! I've been Wedy Jones. Keep it Real. Keep it Nippon.

San! Ni! Ichi! Hajime!!! Stretch your muscles and embark upon the ultimate marathon of Japan in a raucous ragdoll party multiplayer racer where anything can happen. Hurdle barrels, outrun Shiba Inu and dive out of the paths of bicycles - all while chucking fruit at your opponents and dashing across planks precariously balanced over waterfalls - in an unreal experience that must be played to be believed.

Features

Four-player madness!
You can’t spell Nippon Marathon without ‘P’, ‘A’, ‘R’, ‘T’ and *checks letters* ‘I’, we suppose… Solo play is supported, but grab up to four pads and enjoy the supreme silliness of gaming’s greatest marathon.

See all of Japan!
Cross the entirety of the land of Nippon in a series of creative courses spanning busy city streets, village lanes, bustling markets, mountaintop shrines, supermarkets and even unsafe sake distilleries!

Wacky characters!
Go toe-to-toe with some of the coolest contestants who ever did, er… contest! Lobster-man J DARWIN, onesie-obsessive Elizabeth Nishibori, school uniform fan Zenbei “Xen Bae” and the completely normal Snuguru Maestro are among the challengers vying for the podium!

Epic pratfalls!
Swinging poles! Giant face-slapping fish! Cyclists! Shiba Inu! Panes of glass! Traffic! False doors! Barrels! Rolling beams! Wobbly planks! Flying fruit! More Shiba Inu! EARTHQUAKES!!!!! Dodge and dive over the lot or suffer the painful and embarrassing consequences of physics-based collisions…

Tons of surprises!
You never know what will happen next in Nippon Marathon. Perhaps you’ll find time for an impromptu spot of slot machine fun? Maybe a news anchor will jetpack in to interview you on the racetrack? Heck, anything is possible…

Drop-in/drop-out play!
Need a bathroom break to squeeze pineapple juice out of your foam lobster claws? Random pedestrian passing by your couch and wants to play? Whatever the cause, hop in and out for the ultimate, flexible party get-together!
