I Played EVERY F-Zero Game (And They're Amazing)

Seeing people play the other F-Zero games after playing 99 is such a breathtaking thing to see after such a long hiatus. I'm really glad you enjoy the series and share the love for F-Zero that we do as well. I have no doubt we won't have to wait very long for another F-Zero game to play.

I think GX is the ultimate meaning of F-Zero. It feels like you're legitimately a pilot wrestling to tame those wild beast machines and memorize those unforgiving tracks.

As a die-hard fan of the fastest, most punishing racing franchise in history of Nintendo, stuff like this really warms my heart. Seeing new people becoming fans of F-Zero after playing the other games loving them. Welcome the fanbase fellow pilot! 😃

My heart ❤ It makes me so happy to hear an F-Zero newcomer falling in love with the series in much the same way I did :)

You mention that you feel like F-Zero 99 is slower, and that you like how you're able to see further than in past games. Based on my observations, these two elements are very closely related to one another! The speed in 99 compared to SNES F-Zero seems to be about on par, reading similar clear times and top speeds for the machines. However, having a wider field of view and being able to see further down the track gives the impression that you are moving a lot slower than in the original.

99 converted me to an F-Zero fan overnight and I just started X.

F-Zero GX kind of ruined the futuristic racing subgenre for me. It's gameplay mechanics and physics are just absolute perfection, no other racing game has been able to give me that sense of extreme speed yet absolute control over your vehicle that F-Zero GX has to offer, it's just something that has to be experienced first hand to enjoy. I have played things like Redout, Fast RMX and Wipeout, and don't get me wrong, i've enjoyed them, they´re good games, however, every time I play one of those, I can't help but get this feeling of "this isn't F-Zero" It's like a curse you have to bear once you have played such masterpiece, that's how perfect I think F-zero GX gameplay is. And that's why im so happy that something like F-Zero99 exists, maybe it will be able to bring back some spotlight to a franchise that desperately needs it, and that has been long dead.

Thank you Nintendo for bringing this series to a new generation. Most of us F-Zero heads are in our 40's.

Man... these games are even more awesome than I thought, honestly

It is so wild to see a bunch of youtubers being enlightened to this series after so long! Growing up, my brothers and I cherished this series and we worked together to inch our way through the GPs and story mode of GX. but no one else we knew had even played the games, and we just couldn't' understand why this series went so unnoticed. I remember it took us almost an entire decade of on and off attempts between the three of us to beat GX story mode on very hard. One of my favorite gaming achievements.

Really nice to see someone not trash on Maximum Velocity for once. It's not an easy game by any means, but it's not as terrible as some people make it out to be. By the way, losing speed while being on critical health was not new to MV, but it was carried over from the original F-Zero. Just thought you'd be interested to know that.

At first it felt like fzero 99 was a slap in the face to fzero fans and Nintendo chickening out. Now I see how great of a release it was and how much it brings the series into now.

The first time I ever played Fzero was back in 2003. I had gotten Mario Kart Double Dash for Christmas and it came with a bonus disc where you could play a track in GX. I remember playing it and being so lost and getting a headache. Fast forward to 2006 and I saw the game at Kmart and decided to buy it and try it out again and I instantly fell in love. Ever since 2006 I have put so many hours into playing GX and the other games. I have been telling people since 2008 how amazing the series and GX is ( GX is my fav video game of all time) and all of us Fzero lovers have been waiting for so many years for a new game for other people to understand just how amazing this series is. It is so refreshing to see that because of 99, people are finally starting to see it.

It’s so great to see others finally checking these games out and not just referring to it as a Smash Bros franchise. People always thought I was strange to say I don’t like racing games really but say F-Zero GX is seriously one of the most addicting games out there.

I love taking on challenges in video games, I've beaten Super Mario Bros. Lost Levels, Battletoads, Platinumed most FromSoftware games. However...THE ONLY CHALLENGE I have never been able to beat....has been "Save Jody" in F-Zero GX. It requires absolute perfection and precision that I have never been able to complete. I've put HUNDREDS of hours into F-Zero GX and I hope for the series this game can come back with its high-speed 30 player action.

Gx is so awesome for how personal it can end up feeling. It’s funny how much beef you can end up having with the other drivers, like how I’ll forever hate Dr. Clash for snagging first place in diamond master cup. Sometimes i plan out who i have to K.O so that i can have a safe point lead. Or those cups where you make the comeback of the century. It’s all so thrilling, and definitely frustrating. It just makes you feel so accomplished. Wish me luck, I’m finishing up story mode on very hard mode 🙃

I really need to try gx

I miss my copy of GX more and more every day.

The designs in the karts/aircraft’s/death rockets in the series is so great. Music is as well. I will forever love Shotgun Kiss and Zen

Speaking of music in GX, Aeropolis final lap hit WAYYYY too hard, imo. ❤
