The most important aspect of any videogame is GAMEPLAY.

Why not start with a simple FIRST-like, 2D game. You could either use a 2D approximation of a FIRST game, or an entirely new game. See what you can do. See if you can make it fun to play. I imagine the 1997 game would adapt itself well. Lot's of strategies that could be done simply.
We could, but we'd still need a physics engine. And when we switched to 3D, it'd be a MASSIVE overhaul.

Yes, that's on the list, too. v0.5, I believe. (NES did online gameplay?)

I'm also half dreaming that this will double as a simulator.
