A former Nintendo employee provides their own surprising reason for why one beloved video game franchise has been absent over the past 19 years.

content_html

A former staff member at Nintendo recently shed some light on why there hasn’t been a new F-Zero game in almost two decades. The original F-Zero raced onto the Super NES back in 1990 and wowed gamers with its groundbreaking “Mode 7” pseudo-3D graphics and imaginative futuristic setting, paving the way for an entire genre of futuristic racing games like Wipeout and Star Wars Episode 1: Racer. The F-Zero series is set in the far-off year of 2560, where Earth’s contact with aliens eventually led to a new high-stakes sport where competitors race hyperfast hovercraft across intergalactic landscapes.
