F-Zero GX is a futuristic racing game where up to thirty competitors race on massive circuits inside <a href="/facts/Plasma_(physics)/1d3btMVU">plasma</a>-powered machines in an intergalactic Grand Prix.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:1" href="#fn:1">1</a> It is the successor to <a href="/facts/F-Zero_X/7b5yImAz">F-Zero X</a> and continues the series' difficult, high-speed racing style, retaining the basic gameplay and control system from the <a href="/facts/Nintendo_64/p1rI4VQ2">Nintendo 64</a> game.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:2" href="#fn:2">2</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:3" href="#fn:3">3</a> Tracks include enclosed tubes, cylinders, tricky jumps, and rollercoaster-esque paths.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:4" href="#fn:4">4</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5">5</a> Some courses are littered with innate obstacles like dirt patches and mines.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6">6</a> An emphasis is placed on track memorization and reflexes.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7">7</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8">8</a> Each machine handles differently,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:9" href="#fn:9">9</a> has its own performance abilities affected by its weight, and a grip, boost, and durability trait graded on an A to E (best to worst) scale.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:10" href="#fn:10">10</a> Before a race, the player is able to adjust a vehicle's balance between maximum acceleration and maximum top speed.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:11" href="#fn:11">11</a> Every machine has an energy meter, which serves two purposes. First, it is a measurement of the machine's <a href="/facts/Health_(game_terminology)/YYEzz8oU">health</a> and is decreased from accidents or attacks from opposing racers.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:12" href="#fn:12">12</a> Second, the player is usually given the ability to boost after the first lap,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:13" href="#fn:13">13</a> but must sacrifice energy to do so.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:14" href="#fn:14">14</a> Pit areas and dash plates are located at various points around the track for vehicles to drive over. The former replenishes energy, while the latter gives a speed boost without using up any energy. The less time spent in the pit area, the less energy will regenerate.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:15" href="#fn:15">15</a> Courses may also have jump plates, which launch vehicles into the air enabling them to cut corners.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:16" href="#fn:16">16</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:17" href="#fn:17">17</a>
Each racing craft contains <a href="/facts/Air_brake_(road_vehicle)/GhQnan8L">air brakes</a> for navigating tight corners by using an <a href="/facts/Analog_stick/okum8wxt">analog stick</a> and <a href="/facts/Shoulder_button/WeNdbxjt">shoulder buttons</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:18" href="#fn:18">18</a> Afterwards, the physics modeling gives vehicles setup with high acceleration a boost of acceleration. Players can easily exploit this on a wide straight stretch of a circuit to generate serpentinous movements.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:19" href="#fn:19">19</a> This technique called "snaking" delivers a massive increase in speed,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:20" href="#fn:20">20</a> but it is best used on the easier tracks, when racing alone in Time Trial, and with heavy vehicles with a high grip rating and given high acceleration. According to Nintendo, the snaking technique was an intentional addition to F-Zero GX's gameplay.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:21" href="#fn:21">21</a>

F-Zero GX features numerous gameplay modes and options.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:22" href="#fn:22">22</a> In the Grand Prix mode, the player races against twenty-nine opponents through three laps of each track in a cup.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:23" href="#fn:23">23</a> There are four cups available (Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, and Diamond) with five tracks in each.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:24" href="#fn:24">24</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:25" href="#fn:25">25</a> Unlocking the AX cup gives the player all six tracks from the arcade game, F-Zero AX.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:26" href="#fn:26">26</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:27" href="#fn:27">27</a> Each cup has four selectable <a href="/facts/Difficulty_level/WE3FFBaq">difficulty levels</a>: Novice, Standard, Expert, and Master.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:28" href="#fn:28">28</a> Players get a certain number of points for finishing a track depending on where they placed, and the winner of the circuit is the character who receives the most total points.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:29" href="#fn:29">29</a> If the player has a "spare machine"—the equivalent of an extra <a href="/facts/Life_(video_games)/H1Xy1sEd">life</a>—then the race can be restarted even if the player's vehicle is destroyed from losing all energy or falling off the track. A predetermined number of spare machines based on the difficulty level chosen are given to players before starting a cup.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:30" href="#fn:30">30</a> Players get an additional spare machine for every five contenders they destroy through <a href="/facts/Vehicular_combat_game/319yoC2u">vehicular combat</a>,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:31" href="#fn:31">31</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:32" href="#fn:32">32</a> with each destroyed and eliminated opponent also granting extra energy.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:33" href="#fn:33">33</a>
The Vs. Battle is the multiplayer mode where two to four players can compete simultaneously. <a href="/facts/Time_Attack/jEPwEm8F">Time Attack</a> lets the player choose any track and complete it in the shortest time possible.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:34" href="#fn:34">34</a> An Internet ranking system was established where players enter a password on the official F-Zero website and get ranked based on their position in the database. Players receive a password after completing a Time Attack race, which records their time and machine used.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:35" href="#fn:35">35</a> <a href="/facts/Ghost_(video_gaming)/KvCvXrMA">Ghost data</a>, transparent re-enactments of the player's Time Attack performances, can be saved on <a href="/facts/Memory_card/Rwy2lKS2">memory cards</a> to later race against. Up to five ghosts can be raced against simultaneously.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:36" href="#fn:36">36</a> The Replay mode allows saved Grand Prix and Time Attack gameplay to be replayed with different camera angles and in-game music.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:37" href="#fn:37">37</a> The Pilot Profile mode has each character's biography, theme music, information on their machine, and a short <a href="/facts/Full_motion_video/DGyQ52z7">full motion video</a> sequence.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:38" href="#fn:38">38</a>
Customize mode is divided between the F-Zero Shop, Garage, and Emblem Editor. The shop is where opponent machines, custom parts for vehicle creation, and miscellaneous items such as story mode chapters and staff ghost data can be purchased with tickets. Tickets are acquired as the player progresses through the Grand Prix, Time Attack, and Story mode. In the Garage section, players can create a machine with three custom parts or print emblems on any vehicle. The parts are divided into body, cockpit, and booster categories, and affect the vehicle's overall durability, maximum speed, cornering, and acceleration. The Emblem Editor lets players create decals.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:39" href="#fn:39">39</a>
F-Zero GX is the first F-Zero game to feature a story mode.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:40" href="#fn:40">40</a> Its story has the player assume the role of F-Zero pilot <a href="/facts/Captain_Falcon/gxYmXd3K">Captain Falcon</a> in nine chapters of various racing scenarios; such as Falcon's training regiment, a race against a rival through a canyon with falling boulders, attack and eliminate a rival's gang, and escape from a collapsing building through closing blast doors. Each chapter can be completed on a normal, hard, and very hard difficulty setting.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:41" href="#fn:41">41</a> <a href="/facts/Toshihiro_Nagoshi/zl9uzg3V">Toshihiro Nagoshi</a>, one of the co-producers, stated that this mode was included because the development team felt that the F-Zero universe was unique and they wanted to explain some of the characters' motivations and flesh out the game world.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:42" href="#fn:42">42</a>

<h2 id="arcade-counterpart">Arcade counterpart</h2>

F-Zero AX is a futuristic racing <a href="/facts/Arcade_game/oBYn85uk">arcade game</a> developed by Amusement Vision and published by Sega for the <a href="/facts/Triforce_(Arcade_Board)/0lGYf2XY">Triforce</a> <a href="/facts/Arcade_system_board/dCRltFVF">arcade system board</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:43" href="#fn:43">43</a> It is the second game by Sega to use Triforce,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:44" href="#fn:44">44</a> which was conceived from a business alliance between them, Nintendo and <a href="/facts/Namco/DA5E3xqv">Namco</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:45" href="#fn:45">45</a> This hardware allows for connectivity between the GameCube and arcade games.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:46" href="#fn:46">46</a> F-Zero AX's <a href="/facts/Arcade_cabinet/hxmnSMvu">arcade cabinet</a> is available for purchase in standard and deluxe versions. The standard version is a regular sit-down model, while the deluxe version is shaped like Captain Falcon's vehicle and has a tilting seat simulating the craft's cockpit.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:47" href="#fn:47">47</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:48" href="#fn:48">48</a> <a href="/facts/IGN/kNcWSmFY">IGN</a> demoed the Cycraft version dubbed "F-Zero Monster Ride" at the 2003 <a href="/facts/JAMMA/3SA0lCDx">JAMMA</a> arcade show. The Cycraft machine, co-developed between Sega and Simuline, is a cabin suspended in midair controlled by three <a href="/facts/Servomotor/ytGSaxAV">servomotors</a> for an in-depth motion-based simulation.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:49" href="#fn:49">49</a>
The game features 14 playable vehicles with their pilots, consisting of ten newcomers and the four returning characters from the original F-Zero, as well as six race tracks.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:50" href="#fn:50">50</a> Each track must be completed before time runs out. Time extensions are awarded for reaching multiple checkpoints on a course however, the player will receive time penalties for falling off-course or depleting their energy meter.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:51" href="#fn:51">51</a> Two gameplay modes are available: Race mode, in which the player races against twenty-nine opponents; and Time Attack mode, in which the player attempts to complete a track in the fastest time possible.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:52" href="#fn:52">52</a> Connecting multiple cabinets opens up "Versus Play" in the race mode, thus enabling up to four players to compete simultaneously.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:53" href="#fn:53">53</a>

<h3>Data storage devices</h3>
F-Zero AX cabinets can dispense <a href="/facts/Magnetic_stripe_card/1mcYEQoT">magnetic stripe cards</a> called an "F-Zero license card" to keep track of custom machine data, pilot points, and race data. A card was bundled with the Japanese release of F-Zero GX. The card expires after fifty uses, but its data can be transferred to a new card.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:54" href="#fn:54">54</a> Once inserted, the game builds a machine with three custom parts which can be upgraded by earning pilot points.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:55" href="#fn:55">55</a> Pilot points are acquired as the player progresses through the Race and Time Attack modes.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:56" href="#fn:56">56</a> Players can increase point earnings by improving finish place, eliminating opponents, and finishing races with a large amount of energy reserved.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:57" href="#fn:57">57</a> A magnetic stripe card is needed to enter the F-Zero AX Internet Ranking system.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:58" href="#fn:58">58</a> Similarly to GX,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:59" href="#fn:59">59</a> players receive a password after completing a Time Attack race to enter on the official F-Zero website's ranking system.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:60" href="#fn:60">60</a>

GameCube <a href="/facts/Memory_card/Rwy2lKS2">memory cards</a>, on which <a href="/facts/Saved_game/s05dfbad">saved games</a> are kept, can be inserted into these arcade units.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:61" href="#fn:61">61</a> A memory card is required for players a chance to win the AX-exclusive pilots, their vehicles, and tracks for use in GX.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:62" href="#fn:62">62</a> Players can store up to four machines from GX on a memory card, then play them in AX. If a memory card is used with a magnetic stripe card, players have additional options; they can enter stored GX machines into the F-Zero AX Internet ranking system, and transfer custom AX machine parts to GX.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:63" href="#fn:63">63</a> F-Zero AX content can also be acquired by completing GX's tougher challenges,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:64" href="#fn:64">64</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:65" href="#fn:65">65</a> or through the use of a <a href="/facts/Cheating_in_video_games/McF24v1F">cheat device</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:66" href="#fn:66">66</a>
<h2 id="development">Development</h2>
After Sega transitioned from <a href="/facts/Video_game_development_parties/6gbHyvDu">first to third-party development</a> in 2001,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:67" href="#fn:67">67</a> they and Nintendo developed a close relationship.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:68" href="#fn:68">68</a> Toshihiro Nagoshi, president of Sega subsidiary <a href="/facts/Amusement_Vision/AFcHQ8tA">Amusement Vision</a>, developed <a href="/facts/Super_Monkey_Ball_(video_game)/DYzAnf8o">Super Monkey Ball</a> for the GameCube, which opened up the opportunity for a collaboration between the two companies.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:69" href="#fn:69">69</a> Nintendo announced on February 18, 2002, that an <a href="/facts/Arcade_system_board/dCRltFVF">arcade system board</a> under the name of "<a href="/facts/Triforce_(arcade_system_board)/0lGYf2XY">Triforce</a>" was being developed in conjunction between <a href="/facts/Nintendo/dMrLpaHu">Nintendo</a>, <a href="/facts/Namco/DA5E3xqv">Namco</a>, and <a href="/facts/Sega/f9TY2kyl">Sega</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:70" href="#fn:70">70</a> The idea for the arcade board originated after discussions between Sega and Namco about the capabilities and cost effectiveness of the <a href="/facts/GameCube/acH9qVxz">GameCube architecture</a> to make arcade games.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:71" href="#fn:71">71</a> Sega, having helped to develop Nintendo's Triforce arcade system, wanted to support it with software that would "stand out and draw attention to Nintendo's platform."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:72" href="#fn:72">72</a> Nagoshi was suggested to develop a driving game and agreed under the stipulation he could come up with something unique—which was working on the next installment in Nintendo's F-Zero series.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:73" href="#fn:73">73</a> Nagoshi contemplated declining the project due to the combined pressure of making a great impression on Nintendo and creating the next installment of an esteemed franchise, but his curiosity about what he and his team could create overcame his hesitation.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:74" href="#fn:74">74</a>

In March 2002, an announcement from Sega and Nintendo revealed that Amusement Vision and Nintendo would collaborate to release F-Zero games for the Triforce arcade board and the GameCube.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:75" href="#fn:75">75</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:76" href="#fn:76">76</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:77" href="#fn:77">77</a> F-Zero GX and AX was the first significant software collaboration between Nintendo and Sega,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:78" href="#fn:78">78</a> and the announcement that Nintendo had handled development of one of its franchises to former competitor Sega came as a surprise to some critics.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:79" href="#fn:79">79</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:80" href="#fn:80">80</a> Nagoshi claimed that 1991's <a href="/facts/F-Zero_(video_game)/L7dec7a4">F-Zero</a> "actually taught me what a game should be" and that it served as an influence for him to create <a href="/facts/Daytona_USA_(arcade_game)/Y8rcWIjn">Daytona USA</a> and other racing games.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:81" href="#fn:81">81</a> F-Zero producer <a href="/facts/Shigeru_Miyamoto/xYoBgNnb">Shigeru Miyamoto</a> stated that Nintendo "gained a lot of fans among current game developers, including famous producers like Mr. Nagoshi who grew up playing Nintendo games and are big fans of some of our titles."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:82" href="#fn:82">82</a> and thought the collaboration resulted in a "true evolution of the F-Zero series", enhancing the simulation of racing at high speeds and expanding the "F-Zero world on a grand scale."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:83" href="#fn:83">83</a>
While Amusement Vision was responsible for most of the development,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:84" href="#fn:84">84</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:85" href="#fn:85">85</a> Miyamoto and <a href="/facts/Takaya_Imamura/Up7Pf584">Takaya Imamura</a> of <a href="/facts/Nintendo_EAD/Up7Pf584">Nintendo EAD</a> took on the role of producer and supervisor, respectively.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:86" href="#fn:86">86</a> Sega handled planning and execution and Nintendo was responsible for supervision of their product.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:87" href="#fn:87">87</a> Nagoshi was initially concerned about differences in opinion between the two companies, and mentioned "If Nintendo planned to hold our hands through development, I would have suggested they develop the game themselves. That way we could focus on a project which would reflect our studio's abilities. I figured that would cause a war, but I was told most of the responsibility would be left to us."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:88" href="#fn:88">88</a> F-Zero GX runs on an enhanced version of the engine used in Super Monkey Ball.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:89" href="#fn:89">89</a> Nagoshi focused on what he called its self-explanatory "interface" and "rhythm" to give the way the tracks are laid out a rhythmic feel.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:90" href="#fn:90">90</a> The game's soundtrack features an array of songs from rock and <a href="/facts/Techno/BBqWRxmt">techno</a> musical styles originally composed by the game music staff's <a href="/facts/Hidenori_Shoji/mLreXPmG">Hidenori Shoji</a> and <a href="/facts/Daiki_Kasho/sRk5XQCM">Daiki Kasho</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:91" href="#fn:91">91</a> Shojii is known for his musical scores in <a href="/facts/Daytona_USA_2/G8l8MAkm">Daytona USA 2</a> and <a href="/facts/Fighting_Vipers_2/Ie03xNAE">Fighting Vipers 2</a>, while Kasho worked on the <a href="/facts/Gran_Turismo_(series)/32efJcoo">Gran Turismo series</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:92" href="#fn:92">92</a> Kasho composed the character themes and their lyrics were by Alan Brey.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:93" href="#fn:93">93</a> Both Shoji and Kasho supervised the soundtrack's <a href="/facts/Audio_mastering/2EG4KMxC">audio mastering</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:94" href="#fn:94">94</a>
Nintendo revealed the first footage of F-Zero GX at the Pre-<a href="/facts/E3/0tq1j8qq">E3</a> press conference on May 21, 2002. While it was known to exist several months prior, it had remained behind closed doors.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:95" href="#fn:95">95</a> In early March 2003, according to the official Nintendo website, F-Zero was delayed by two months.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:96" href="#fn:96">96</a> Via a live <a href="/facts/Videoconferencing/Ya9TMFQD">video conference</a> call from Japan on July 7, Miyamoto, Nagoshi, and Imamura answered questions about the two F-Zero games. There, Miyamoto announced the Japanese version was finished and would soon be available to the public. Nagoshi mentioned that back at E3 2003, he was hoping that they would have that time to include a <a href="/facts/Local_area_network/edUDxJ6J">local area network</a> (LAN) multiplayer mode, however they chose not to support this mode. The development team focused more on the single-player aspects, and a LAN multiplayer mode would distract greatly.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:97" href="#fn:97">97</a> Imamura commented that even though he worked directly on F-Zero throughout its different incarnations, this time he took a "step back and was involved at kind of a producer level at looking over the game."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:98" href="#fn:98">98</a> Imamura added "hav[ing] worked on the F-Zero series, and seeing the results of the collaboration with Sega, I found myself at something of a loss as to how we can take the franchise further past F-Zero GX and AX."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:99" href="#fn:99">99</a>
