F-Zero/Trivia
- Actor Allusion: Possibly unintentional. In the anime, Ryu (Rick) is voiced by Toshiyuki Morikawa. One of the later episodes has him clad in a white dogi, training under a waterfall, with his hair down. This makes him greatly resemble another Ryu voiced by Morikawa.
- Fan Nickname:
- Hey, It's That Voice!:
- Mighty Gazelle's seiyuu Takayuki Fujimoto has also voiced Kakuka Houkou and Musashi.
- Kate Alen's seiyuu in the anime, Ai Maeda, is best known as Mimi Tachikawa, Shion Uzuki, Chihiro Fushimi, Megumi Oumi, Haruhi Nishimoto, and Yue. This also gave her a chance to showcase her vocal talents, as she sung the ending theme, "Resolution".
- In Japanese, Zoda's voice is provided by Shinpachi Tsuji (Heinkel, Pakkun, Bason, Chief Inspector Shintaro Kosaka). In English, we have Jamie McGonnigal (L.A., Barry, Omi Tsukiyono, Kazuto Iizuka, Johnny Garland, Teddington Twingersnap).
- Antonio Guster's seiyuu is Takeharu Ōnishi? As in Toshiaki Hayami/Bio-Freezer? Madarao?
- Young!Silver in the dub is voiced by Marc Diraison, better known as Guts and Zoro (in the 4Kids dub).
- Seeing as Tomoyuki Shimura also voiced Noboru Tennoji, Michael Chain isn't much of a stretch.
- Rick Wheeler voiced by Frank Frankson in the dub, which makes him Tristan and Yusei Fudo. So then... CARD GAMES ON F-ZERO MACHINES!
- Miss Killer's seiyuu Sayuri Yoshida is more recognizable as Himeno Awayuki and Inaba Mizuki.
- If you're curious as to why Clank sounds like Chris Thorndyke in the dub, it's because they're both voiced by Suzanne Goldish.
- Media Research Failure: IGN once referred to Captain Falcon as "Blue Falcon", the name of his vehicle.
- Name's the Same: Zoda shares it with the Big Bad of StarTropics. Cue Wild Mass Guessing that they're one in the same.
- No Export for You: F-Zero X Expansion Kit, which was released for the 64 Disk Drive, an add-on that never made it outside Japan, either. Anyways, the Expansion Kit had new courses, a Car Editor (which was also in F-Zero GX) and a Course Editor.
- There's also F-Zero Climax, which also had a level editor. A partial translation for it is available.
- The two BS titles are this by default, as the Satellaview was an add-on for the Super Famicom.
- Screwed by the Network: A general consensus about the anime's dub (which lasted for all of 15 episodes), despite the mass Bowdlerization by 4Kids.
- What Could Have Been:
- The original sequel to F-Zero was going to be called Zero Racers (or G-Zero). It was a pseudo-3D racer and replaced Dr. Stewart with a newer character named Origammy. Nintendo Power previewed it and a prototype was seen at the 1996 E3 trade show. Because it was for the failed Virtual Boy, this sequel never saw the light of day.
- The Expansion Kit for X included suped-up versions of the Blue Falcon (Super Falcon), White Cat (Super Cat), and Fire Stingray (Super Stingray)—each vehicle giving its respective pilot a new costume (Falcon wears a modified bodysuit, Jody wears Cool Shades, Goroh's missing his helmet, etc.)—that were Dummied Out in the original F-Zero X and never were seen again in the series. See here for an example.
