I was at an arcade over the weekend and got to try F-Zero AX. Super cool. I wasn't expecting the seat to jolt around to match your driving. It felt so intense. I haven't played 99 yet and I'm taking all this as my sign I should.
THIS. there are so many nintendo arcade games that are super niche and totally could be ported to switch/switch2. In fact all their 80's arcade releases should have their own app on NSO.
My biggest hope for a Yakuza release on Nintendo has been including AX as one of the CLUB SEGA games, since Nagoshi helmed its development. I'll cross my fingers and hope Kiwami adds it.
Please if anyone has seen it recorded on to VHS the remaining dub episodes of 4kids F-Zero GP Legend English dub adaptation eps 16-26. Please archieve them. They are lost media and may have only aired in New Zealand! Or for Nintendo to stream it on TH-cam themselves
@@averygamerdude7911 that’s so strange to hear, it’s not like sonic x or Kirby right back at ya that they get mentioned all the time. Thanks for the info
So cool to see media from Satellaview games come back. Really hope we see more of those games added to NSO - like the Zelda games that were on there. Also very happy with the GBA drops and have fingers crossed for the 64DD version of X at some point with the track editor.
Supposedly because it was a joint venture between Nintendo and St. Giga and St. Giga is a long vanished company and no one really knows who owns its stuff Nintendo is concerned about straight-up uploading Satellaview games (so things like remaking Satellaview content into F Zero 99 is different than straight up rereleasing BS F Zero). No idea how confident I should be in that explanation but that's the way I'd heard the story.
I was one of the people on the BS F-Zero Deluxe project, and I was over the moon seeing Ace League added last night. I obviously love the Forest and Metal Fort tracks, but those always felt like "sequel" material. Ace League felt like the completion of the original game. I can't wait to see the mirror versions!
It's an understatement to say I basically shit my pants, but I was on the toilet this morning when I read the news, luckily. I've been asking for this since 99 came out. The somewhat uncommon game preservation W for Nintendo.
That would be sooooo cool! We've been waiting forever for a new game and FZ99 was a great rebirth for the series that's so much more fun than I could have ever imagined in the beginning. Now rereleasing all old games, a GX HD port is the only thing missing now. And a brand new game...man, it just HAS to happen one day!
This is gonna sound weird but I really really hope we have done enough as consumers to show Nintendo that F-Zero does have a place on the market, and that we're beyond ready for a brand new, BIG F-Zero game. I love F-Zero 99, but we've been waiting for so long.
Honestly I'm just worried that even if we do get a new F-Zero, it'll be the kind of deal where they remove all the pilots except the SNES ones and you only have a create-a-pilot to work with That's probably heavy doomerism but I really love the characters in F-Zero and I _really_ don't want the takeaway from 99 to be "people are okay with no pilots"
Climax being released (assumedly without translation, a la Super Puyo Tsu) is wonderful to see! Even if the SNES-style F-Zeros have never been my favorite, I appreciate them for being ways to carry on the franchise. I'm still, somehow, holding hope we get either a GX remaster or a new title. Either one would be wonderful to see.
What did I wake up to? Holy, this is amazing news! I might have to consider getting the Expansion Pass now! I do hope Forest and Metal Fort'll make it to F-Zero 99 one day.
@@BlueThunderO7 lack of exposure? I agree. Lacklustre sales back then, too. I find that F-Zero 99 is the smartest way to bring this particular IP back into the spotlight. And with all the positive vibe around Nintendo these past few years (theme parks, movies…), they’re willing to take some risks with dormant franchises - look at Emio! Highly recommend that game.
Holy crap I’m so happy that they added all this stuff to 99. I hope they keep the sever up for one more year. I’m just happy that so many people get to enjoy f-zero together.
my fantasy is F-Zero GX being rereleased on the Switch 2.0 and getting the Mario Kart 8 DLC treatment. Or a track editor with online sharing. F-Zero GX is such a perfect game that all I want from it is more of it to play. This is one tiny step closer to that fantasy...
Also, I am a HUGE F-ZERO nerd and I'm looking forward to what this could potentially mean for the future of the series. I'm still holding out for a true next gen F-ZERO experience in addition to a remaster of GX
The biggest jumpscare would be getting GX ported to the Switch with the special AX pieces in the game with some degree of online multi-player functions (Or directly 8-player compatibility in local play)
I'm happy to see more content being added to the game. I loved F-zero when I first got to play it way back when. I'd love to think how this brings in so many people that maybe one day, Nintendo will make a new F-Zero. We could only have like 10 racers so help with the like 50 GX had, at least give us new tracks!
Really love the love Nintendo is giving to F-Zero with the updates for F-Zero 99 and the fact that we are getting F-Zero GP Legend and Climax as well. Hopefully we can see a new F-Zero title in the future on Switch 2. Ideally, something that has the vibe and excellent course design of F-Zero GX.
To explain a bit more on why fire stingray got buffed. 1.4 stingray struggled to get off the line during the beginning of a race with its slow acceleration, and with fuller lobbies, struggled to get up in front due bumping around.
Time to get back on 99, I keep falling out of it because of my new job and college starting back up, but I love the BS Machines, so it's time to start racing! Love GP Legend, very excited to see that one back again, and while I like Climax less than GP Legend, I'm FLOORED that both of them are here. I figured it would need too much licensing. Holding out for GX. I LOVE that game and would adore a chance to own a physical copy of it.
I'm not the biggest F-Zero fan. But it is nice seeing the series getting more attention and thanks to F-Zero 99, things are looking brighter for F-Zero.
Man, this is the kinda stuff I predicted coming eventually back when the game was new but slowly lost hope and stopped playing, but here it all is and SO MUCH MORE all at once, on top of the previous big update I still haven't played, AND a big event... I'm coming back, baby. LOVE FZ99. And seeing the support for the series coming to switch online with not only e-reader exclusive stuff but a whole japan-exclusive game, really has me feeling some kinda way I haven't felt in a long long time about Nintendo actually... *caring* about this beloved franchise again. Please, please please please try making a new one just oooone more time...
I've been holding out hope for the machines from the Satellaview game to get into 99 since the beginning. My only two gripes are: 1. You have to unlock them. 2. They're apparently reskins of the four base machines and not separate entities with their own stats.
An F-Zero GX remaster similar to Metroid Prime is what's needed. When people emulate the game on modern hardware it still looks amazing, and already had widescreen. I just hope F-Zero 99 does get a permanent offline update when they decide it's time to call it a day. Local multiplayer and CPU's for the rest of the racers. Would be simple to add once they feel they have done all they can with it.
F-Zero 99 got me interested in the series and I’m really happy they updated it! I likely wouldn’t have cared about these releases before but I’m really excited to play go legend and climax! Not to mention climax has a track editor!
Retro doctor Stewart is so much cooler than the more contemporary versions. You get the vibe he’s a quiet sophisticated dandy. In the later games he sort of just blends with the crowd
In the last few years we got a new F Zero, a new Virtua Fighter, and even a new Fatal Fury. I hope that other franchises that haven't gotten installments in years like Bonk or Road Rash get a new game.
I literally just charged my Switch in the morning for that update. Can't wait for either more 99 content or something "new" on Switch. Remake or a new title, I don't really care, just give me something.
Every time there's a content drop on FZ99 the active player base skyrockets again. It's actually quite simple how to keep the game alive, just support it!
Switch 2 or Bust for FZERO. Hopefully it will have the style of GX with the innovation of 99. If we can get modern interpretation of the classic designs in HD with working online to facilitate the graphics, this might be the answer to Nintendo’s concerns about Mario Kart cannibalizing the racing genre as an alternative. With that, Metroid 4 Prime Beyond, the last on my list for Nintendo to completely become godlike is bringing back Star Fox. (Yes, there are others, but this is the space themed games that need to stand along Mario and Link)
I recall last year when I re-upped my NSO expansion that there were two GBA games that, if they became available to play in said expansion tier, I would re-up my subscription when it expires this year in November. Although the first one is a license game that will likely never wind up here (Astroboy: Omega Factor), F-Zero Climax was the other game. Looks like I'll be re-upping my subscription when it expires next month. Kudos Nintendo.
I loved gp legend when I was a kid. Beat all of story mode and unlocked all the machines. I was recently able to play climax from a japanese copy I was able to find. I prefer the UI from gp legend but gameplay wise climax really was a “climax”. It’s awesome that people are finally gonna get to play these games. GX is the only game now missing from the switch library. I can only hope this means we’re getting a remaster/port with online or a new game.
Even though it's breadcrumbs, it's nice that Nintendo at least acknowledges F-Zero again! It's nice that Climax will finally be available outside of Japan. GX would be the final game that hasn't had a re-release yet, so hopefully that happens. Maybe. If Samus Returns and Metroid Dread could happen to help revitalize the Metroid franchise, then I want to believe there is at least a SLIGHT possibility that we could get a new F-Zero game or even just a GX remaster.
I’m over the moon that we got so much F-Zero news & content randomly shadow dropped last night! The only F-Zero game we’re kissing on switch is GX which will maybe get a remake so we can play the whole franchise on switch (and/or switch 2)
Yes, but the galaxy sized explosion caused by a Falcon Punch (which in itself is a meme) came from that anime(albeit a misleading cut from the entire scene).
Well... shoot. I think they finally got me. May finally get the Online Expansion. F-Zero Climax should have never stayed in Japan... BTW, pre-patch the Wild Goose was arguably the *most consistent* vehicle while the Fire Stingray had _unarguably_ become the worst vehicle. They buffed Blue Falcon and Goose, only wrist-slapped Fox, and for whatever reason they _nerfed_ Stingray when it actually needed a slight buff. The result was everything was outpacing Stingray while it had to play absolutely perfect to even stand a chance. Thankfully they're going full-reverse and letting it actually stand a chance.
If they could they would have with Monkey Ball as well. But instead they had to remake it from the ground up with a new physics engine (and the one they use isn't as good for physics unfortunately). So they could "remake" it but they couldn't remaster it, and since the physics of GX are it's most important aspect, that wouldn't really work out well. Might as well make it a new game at that point.

It's pretty clear 99 is a labor of love for some people at Nintendo.
Nintendo of Europe wants a new F-Zero and was lucky to get those Satellaview things
Or at least the people at Nintendo Software Technology, whom Nintendo rarely allows to make anything.
It's so damn good!!
I'm happy they're releasing the Satallaview tracks. It also seems like Dataminers have discovered that this won't be the last event for F-Zero 99.
I wonder if they got "help" from Guy Perfect's BS F-Zero Deluxe project...

Then Climax would simply be out of the question, and yes I'd have to say, GP Legend IS a very good game, as someone who played the whole game through.
ITS ALIIIIIVE
All we need is an F-Zero GX port/remaster and the Nintendo Switch will become THE definitive machine for F-Zero fans!
Sadly I doubt it'll happen, because Nintendo hates money, apparently.
@@sorak185 It was rumored by a bunch of credible sources that there was a F-Zero GX remaster/remake a couple of months back.

is still wild that F-Zero 99 lasted longer than Mario 35
Not really given that Mario 35 was supposed to be limited
@@gamerguideguy6561since Nintendo owns f zero might be a chance they’ll keep it forever I hope at least
And it got more major updates than Mario Maker 2.

Fzero really found a mass marketing niche with 99. I wonder if we can get a GX game in the style of 99.
I feel like F Zero could return as a day one launch or something
Climax is the BEST 2D F-zero game.
Man, F-Zero fans have been eating GOOD as of late! All we need now is a new game.
We need like a DEFCON counter that rates the likelihood of a new F-ZERO game. We've got to be on *at least* a 3 right now.
Even though it's breadcrumbs, it's nice that Nintendo at least acknowledges F-Zero again! It's nice that Climax will finally be available outside of Japan. GX would be the final game that hasn't had a re-release yet, so hopefully that happens. Maybe. If Samus Returns and Metroid Dread could happen to help revitalize the Metroid franchise, then I want to believe there is at least a SLIGHT possibility that we could get a new F-Zero game or even just a GX remaster.
I’m over the moon that we got so much F-Zero news & content randomly shadow dropped last night! The only F-Zero game we’re kissing on switch is GX which will maybe get a remake so we can play the whole franchise on switch (and/or switch 2)
The fire stingray’s boost recovery is criminally low
WE ARE SO BACK
F-Zero is slowly making a comeback. Now all we need is a GX remaster on the Switch (or it's successor) and hopefully a new game down the road.
Would be pretty sick GX has a shadow drop for the holidays
@@kadosho02 I recommend Victory Heat Rally and Aero GPX as F-zero successors.
F-ZERO WILL LIVE!!!!!!!!!
8:48 um, actually, the F-Zero anime is from 2003, while the the first time we ever saw a Falcon Punch was on Super Smash Bros for the N64 in 1999 ☝️🤓
Yes, but the galaxy sized explosion caused by a Falcon Punch (which in itself is a meme) came from that anime(albeit a misleading cut from the entire scene).
Well... shoot. I think they finally got me. May finally get the Online Expansion. F-Zero Climax should have never stayed in Japan...
BTW, pre-patch the Wild Goose was arguably the *most consistent* vehicle while the Fire Stingray had _unarguably_ become the worst vehicle. They buffed Blue Falcon and Goose, only wrist-slapped Fox, and for whatever reason they _nerfed_ Stingray when it actually needed a slight buff. The result was everything was outpacing Stingray while it had to play absolutely perfect to even stand a chance. Thankfully they're going full-reverse and letting it actually stand a chance.
Now almost all F-Zero games in Nintendo Switch!!!!
Im excited to play this again. Got NSO with Hyrule Edition Switch.
They saw Aero GPX and had to act fast
Gives me hope that maybe we'll see a GX port at some point. Or maybe the Switch 2 will be able to add gamecube games to its NSO selection.
I really hope Nintendo keeps uo the F-Zero series. One of my favorites of all time 💙
What if Nintendo makes a contract with RGG(like a dragon) studios to remaster/make F-zero GX for the switch 2.
If they could they would have with Monkey Ball as well. But instead they had to remake it from the ground up with a new physics engine (and the one they use isn't as good for physics unfortunately). So they could "remake" it but they couldn't remaster it, and since the physics of GX are it's most important aspect, that wouldn't really work out well. Might as well make it a new game at that point.
