    And like that, the Direct just lost any further steam I could’ve had for it.

      It’s at least something F-Zero. TBH battle royale racer was already F-Zero’s niche. Races always had 20+ drivers and most races would end with some being blown up. I’m pretty sure F-Zero X had a survival mode to be the last one standing.

      But yeah this being the original makes it much less exciting. F-Zero really hit its stride with X, featuring a MUCH larger cast, metal music, and faster gameplay.

        While you’re technically correct, the literal last thing I wanted to hear when I heard ‘F-Zero news’, the literal bottom of the barrel, was a minimum viable product using 25 year old assets that deliberately plays follow-the-leader chasing genre trends that a romhacker could’ve made.

          Cool. I was pretty interested in it. Hope you find something else.
