Description

15 fast and difficult tracks await you in F-Zero, where you must pilot your futuristic racer through every bump, jump and deadly turn to become the champ. But it won't be easy, with plenty of other pilots fighting for position on the track, you can easily be bumped off if you're not careful. Your shields won't take too much either, so be sure to race down the repair strips on the side of the track near the start/finish line after every lap. And if that's not enough for you, land mines, magnets and holes in the tracks will create havoc on your hovercar.

Trivia

If you observe carefully, it is possible to see some blank (and a lot of grey too...) letters behind the official car (a flying vehicle responsible for recharging its POWER meter), where is written something as "PIT-TIP" (but the P letter of the word TIP is inverted!). It is true! To see this, open an official car captured screenshot ( I recommend a screenshot captured by an EMULATOR!) with any image editor and use the zoom-in effect (if available) in the middle square area with black and yellow lines. You will be capable of identify these words with a lot of attention. Try do this! It's very funny and finishes with the curiosity of some players that PERHAPS could be have had this mine same doubt.
