Shigeru Miyamoto explains on why there hasn't been a new F-Zero...

Source: GoNintendo

The reasons are that he felt that people were getting tired of the series and felt the series hasn't evolved that much.

In other parts regarding this, he also wants to know WHY gamers want a new F-Zero and wonders what they want from it that hasn't been done before.

Your thoughts? (Judging by the above statement, this will not go well...)

He spelled Mario wrong.

Yeah i heard this at gameinformer.....it sounds to me like Miyamoto knows we want F Zero but honestly he doesnt really want to make one. He has a "never say never" attitude right now, which means it could happen but not anytime soon If u want my predicton,

id say when we get more f zero it will be a 3ds game. Kind of how nintendo used 3ds to give kid icarus another go, they will put f zero on 3ds as an alternative to mariokart 7. Its a safer bet, because the demands and expectations for handhelds are lower than for consoles, and the budget for handheld games is smaller. ms555

Frankly, they could just remake F-Zero X and I would be happy.

Says the guy that claims GX was a disappointment. I'm more inclined to believe SEGA outdid anything he could think of, so he rather have F-Zero on hiatus than give it back to them.

Still bitter that Sega made a better F-Zero than he ever could:P

F-zero for the 3DS would kick so much ASS!

When has F-Zero ever sold well? It's a niche series, and I don't see that ever changing. I just want a hardcore futuristic racer on a console or handheld, and it's been around a decade since the last F-Zero came out.

I knew you were going to go there. I bet it did, but what about the 5 or so that came out in the following 14 years? So again, I stand by that it's a niche series. The masses are never going to go for a tough as nails racer, so if he wants Mario like sales, then he'll have to dumb it down to the point where it's not F-Zero anymore. I don't see what's so hard about giving it to outside parties and developing at least a handheld game every 4 or 5 years.

pft! Best F-Zero game: Smash Bros

Yea, GX sold like crap, we know that.

It's a shame "the sheep" ignored it...

Why I'd like a new one?

Well, I'd like to experience it in glorious HD, with online play and a track editor.

A remake of F-Zero X for the 3DS would probably also do well enough, considering Star Fox 64 3D did.

You say you don't see what's so hard with outsourcing F-Zero to other developers, and acknowledge Miyamoto's disappointment with GX?

Just give SEGA F-Zero again.siLVURcross

And watch it bomb in sales...

To me it all it says was that people were intially blown away with Mode 7, but once they got over it, they didn't want to stick around for the actual substance. It's a hard game, and being a futuristic racer no less, I don't think it's possible for it to ever sell. So Miyamoto saying he's disappointed, really tells me nothing, because critically, F-Zero GX was received as a fantastic game. So yeah, I don't see what's so hard about outsourcing the series and making a cent here and there every few years.

That upsets me because F-Zero GX is my favourite racing game ever created.

Oh well, we got it on Nintendo Land! Yay..

It'd be nice if they just made it on 3DS, or even remade F-Zero X on 3DS, I don't really care I just want a new F-Zero - if it's sales he wants, why not just advertise the **** out of it?

As well as his more than likely chance of appearing in Super Smash Bros. 4

You know franchises lie F-Zero, Metroid, and Star Fox are in trouble when the best thing Nintendo can do with them is reference them in other games.

Man they seriously need to bring back those series....

It's also sad that Miyamato had to say 'buy Star Fox 64 3D or I will kill this series'

[QUOTE="siLVURcross"]Just give SEGA F-Zero again.MrYaotubo

They should release an HD remake of GX for the U to gauge interest.Zeviander

Well i was more interested in the "smile" when talking about Metroid saying "iMetroid

- with a huge smile, said that it could become a more beautiful action game"

Eeeeuuurgh.

I hope that's a bad translation.

Maybe the game can evolve into an Online Multiplayer galore fest? I would love to play against 29 other racers across the globe, it's also perfect for Miiverse.

silly miyamoto, people want a new F-zero because it's the fastest racing game ever, with excellent, creative track design, kick-ass soundtrack and responsive controls. all of these are more than you can say about any other racing game.BrunoBRS

About the closest series to F-Zero in terms of gameplay or overall design is Wipeout. Which means there are pretty much two futuristic racers on the market, and one of them(F-Zero) has not even seen a game in years.

Which pretty much leaves Wipeout as the only racer of this type that's on the market.
