F-Zero has always been an enigma in the expansive list of Nintendo franchises. Hailed for its unrivaled speed, piloting an F-Zero machine required mastery of hairpin turns and weaving between hoards of other vehicles. In hindsight, F-Zero is the perfect game to make into a battle royale considering that, at its core, that’s what it always was.
When Nintendo announced F-Zero 99 on Sept. 14, the reception among fans was mixed. Many were hoping for a new title closer to the 3D installments, but they gave it a chance and witnessed something amazing. Players have been raving about how seamlessly F-Zero lends itself to a battle royale format, from the new super boost mechanic that allows you to drive over the track to the classic risk-reward of boosting at the expense of your health. One Reddit user went in-depth about their personal experience with the game, giving accolades to the tension that comes from qualifying for the next race in grand prix and the variety of formats in which you can enjoy the races.
