F-Zero GX is still one of my favorite racing games. The cross-progression with the arcade version, F-Zero AX, was also really cool, though it was nearly impossible trying to find one of those machines. I found one in Vegas a long time ago and it was a blast. Probably not worth the $5 per credit, though, but still very fun.
I really wish Nintendo would revisit the series again. Or at the very least, let another studio make one. It’s been too long.
Mario Kart 8’s gimmick barely counts as one. The game would be completely fine without anti-gravity, it’s barely noticeable most of the time. And of course, it’s not even new, it had existed forever in Wipeout and… F-Zero X/GX. It was just not a thing yet in Mario Kart.
They didn’t innovate for Mario Kart 8. They just made an exceptional entry, probably my favorite one in the whole series.
But for some reason, nah, after 2 decades without a game F-Zero needs to kickstart the next era of video games or whatever.

Nintendo: We won’t make a new game, until there’s new innovation, and new avenues of creativity to explore.
Also Nintendo: It’s Mario Party 15, ya’ll!!!

Who do they think they are, Valve?
(And to be clear, it isn’t okay for Valve to have that attitude, either. I want my Half-Life story conclusion, damn it!)
