High-Speed Thrills and cutthroat racing drive crowds all over the universe wild!

What is the story behind F-Zero?
The F-Zero Grand Prix dates back to the 26th century. The spectacular race features the most technologically advanced machines runningthrough several circuts of face-paced hovering action. F-Zero is known as the fastest and most extreme race in the known universe, and it's sponsored by the wealthy elite who organized the F-Zero Excecution Project. The winner recives big prize money and a great deal of prestige... but many pilots have been lost persuing the prize.
-(From the F-Zero GX Manual)

What is F-Zero exactly?
-F-ZERO is a high-speed racing game, created by Nintendo for each of its platforms. (Sans NES)

It debuted in 1991, as a launch title for the SNES, and was well-recived.

In 1998, F-ZERO X debuted on the Nintendo 64, to high praise. Expanding upon the original 4 racers, there was now a large variety of character to choose from, (each with his/her own personality), and more tracks as well. A year or so later, an expansion kit was released only in Japan for the 64 Disk Drive.

When the Game Boy Advance arrived, there was an F-Zero game for it: F-Zero Maximum Velocity. While well-recived, most hardcore fans were dissapointed by the dissaperances of Falcon, Goroh, Stewart and Pico; who had been replaced by Megan, Mickey, Jane and Nichi.

2003 heralded the arrival of three F-Zero Games: F-Zero GX, F-Zero AX and F-Zero: GP Legend for the GBA.

Also, a new anime series launched in Japan in October of 2003; 'called Falcon Densetsu'/Falcon Tradition. While not exactly having Captain Falcon as the main star, it still has some familiar faces, including new ones as well.

F-Zero is now in a hiatus stage; due to the cartoon's cancellation here and poor sales of the GBA game. Because of this, 'F-Zero Climax' will not be released in the US, which is quite a shame.

However, there is hope. With the arrival of the Nintendo Wi-Fi service for the Nintendo DS and the Nintendo Revolution, there has been rumors of a possible F-Zero title for the DS. We won't know anything for sure until E3 in May this year, but let's keep our fingers crossed!

1/3 Update, Read this!

A new year, 2 new memebers and a whole host of possibilities for our beloved franchise! With the release of Mario Kart DS, more people than ever have been requesting a F-Zero title for the DS. (I should know, I see at least one every other day at NSider)

Considering that Nintendo wants to push the concept of Wi-Fi gaming with the platform, one can only hope they won't exclude F-Zero, just because of a dud game and cartoon series. We won't know anything for sure, but let's keep our fingers crossed come May!

Also, would anyone be interested in a contest or submitting artwork? ;_;
