Chocobo Racing had a really good racing mechanic too. One that actually has the potential of requiring planning and strategy and stuff ( it was pointless in CR1 because computers aren't that much of a match and a few abilities like magic up were overpowered).
Plus Chocobo Racing 3DS may feature cameo characters. Chocobo Racing (Playstation) had Cloud, Squall, Aya (well just her police car), and a few other characters which was neat. Yeah kind of off topic but really they could make Chocobo Racing 3DS into a really deep racing game if they expand and build upon Chocobo Racing 1.
