F-Zero is set in the year 2560, when humanity's multiple encounters with alien life forms had resulted in the expansion of Earth's social framework. This led to commercial, technological and cultural interchanges between planets. The multi-billionaires who earned their wealth through intergalactic trade were mainly satisfied with their lifestyles, although most coveted more entertainment in their lives. This resulted in a new entertainment based on the Formula One races to be founded with vehicles that could hover one foot above the track. These Grand Prix races were soon named "F-Zero" after a rise in popularity of the races. The game introduced the first set of F-Zero racers: Captain Falcon, Dr. Stewart, Pico, and Samurai Goroh.

By far the best early racing game I've played so far. The music and look are so fitting, the controls are tight, and the existence of multiple different vehicles to choose from is well-done. I won 3 races and decided to move on, but that's cuz racing games usually don't hook me. But this deserves due credit.

This is the kind of game that take your hand easily to guide, then spit in your face for daring to try.

Thank you, Nintendo.

F-Zero is my favourite video game soundtrack.

Can't count how many times I've whistled Big Blue and Mute city ♫
