      For real?! Is this just a rumor or like an actual thing? If they can make another f zero and not fuck it up the switch will become my favorite console despite its many many many flaws.

        I think there was some cryptic Twitter post from some big videogame guy that decoded to YGBP "You've Got Boost Power," but I might be wrong.

        ah i guess it is mostly rumor at this point. i found one article saying it's real but that article has literally zero sources for that info.

    I like how they're all supposed to have their own font and character name, like each one of them is a "brand" targeting audiences for a fanbase that can be sold for sponsorships and advertising.

      It's silly as hell and everyone is Rob Leifeld as fuck but that's the character of the whole thing. It's cheesy but goes so sincerely all in that it works.

      I've posted here about Redout before and hope more people pick up on it! I've kinda burnt myself out on RO2 until new content drops, but for the 50+ hours I played, it was a blast!

    Jet/rocket powered hovering race cars going over Mach 1 and using aerodynamics to steer is such a cool concept.

    Why did no other game developers try out this idea?

        When just a child, Beastman was nearly eaten by a giant alligator. Ever since then, he's been a slayer of beasts. Now he hopes to advertise his services in the Grand Prix

            He's the leader of the Bloody Chain gang. Michael participates in the Grand Prix to show off his driving skills to members of his gang. Since he rarely wins, members are slowly leaving the gang.

              Created by Black Shadow, Blood Falcon is an exact duplicate of Captain Falcon. Well, almost. Blood Falcon is evil – very evil.

        . His objective in this Grand Prix is to complete the final testing phase for his IQ and AI programming. After his run on the last F-ZERO Grand Prix, he endured many trials: combat training, spy activities, college exams and many others. If all of his capabilities function as calculated, there should be nothing that can keep him from winning the Grand Prix. His victory will signify the birth of a flawless android. His favorite food is Italian. As he is an android, his age and gender are listed as unknown

      Zoda is the incarnation of evil and intent on conquering Earth. Why he's racing in the Grand Prix is still a mystery. His past disputes against the Arrows and Captain Falcon are well known.

      Neelsen has participated in more Grand Prix races than anyone, but has yet to win. His age has drawn criticism. Because he is resentful of the newer machines, the other racers are avoiding him.

    Nintendo of America posted some of the earliest webcomics to their website, outlining the canon of F-Zero in the west for the very first time. Those comics were lost when NoA merged their site with the central Nintendo site.

    This canon was thrown out with the coming of F-Zero GX and now some fans search for these missing comics in the "Gonzo Snakey" Canon.
