SNES Longplay [142] F-Zero 

Born 1984, I had a SNES at my grandparents' house and I remember spending my summer afternoons trying to beat the records in King league.... ah, so many happy memories, I miss my grandparents so much now

The music in these games were so great

Wow. I sat here watching this for twenty minutes. My girlfriend said she thought I might of had a stroke, cuz I've been smiling the entire time. This game was LEGIT. I actually remember some of those turns from 25 years ago.

KNIGHT LEAGUE (Standard) 1:12 Mute City I 2:56 Big Blue 5:58 Sand Ocean 9:20 Death Wind I 11:57 Silence QUEEN LEAGUE (Expert) 15:53 Mute City II 18:40 Port Town I 21:06 Red Canyon I 23:33 White Land I 26:22 White Land II KING LEAGUE (Master) 31:53 Mute City III 34:35 Death Wind II 37:26 Port Town II 40:37 Red Canyon II 43:40 Fire Field

i was born 78. i loved this game. played it from morning to night. beat all records over and over.

the song for the first stage always gets me. so nostalgic!

Useless facts about the courses in this game: The game's stop clock runs slightly slow due to the frame rate being calibrated to best suit the illusion of really fast speeds. Mute City is the only world with three variations on three separate courses, even though the courses are very similar in design. The soundtracks for Mute City and Big Blue have been used in sequels such as F-Zero X for N64 and GX for Nintendo GameCube. Big Blue, Sand Ocean, Silence, and Fire Field are the only worlds with no variation sequels. Death Wind is the only world where the effect of wind resistance can be observed, and the sound effects don't echo. Also Death Wind I and II's recharge zones are placed in series on the course rather than in a pit lane. The track map for Silence resembles a pistol pointed downward. White Land is the only world with two variations on separate courses, and the theme soundtrack is remixed for the second course. Port Town I, II and White Land II are the only three open loop courses requiring a jump over a gap. Due to it's slow acceleration, the Fire Stingray is the only vehicle that cannot clear the White Land II jump without gliding on the first lap (I tried several times lol). Death Wind II has the most boost arrows around the course. Port Town II's course design was reused in N64's F-Zero X and nicknamed "snake road." Red Canyon II has an area off the course consisting of jump pads in an arrow formation and can only be reached by hitting the jump pad right before the turn into the stretch of mines at high top speed and gliding. (As shown in the video). Fire Field is the longest, most difficult course (arguably), and it's recharge zone is in an alleyway (I guess) instead of a pit lane. On Practice Mode, all courses in Knight League, and only White Land I from Queen League and Port Town II from King League (7 courses altogether) are available for time trial races. The Silence and Sand Ocean worlds are in fact intertwined. You may have noticed in each track what appears to be another track in the distance near the horizon, and in fact that's exactly the case. You can see the Sand Ocean track from Silence and vice versa. They were both programmed into the game starting on the same file, which was basically then copy/pasted and altered to reflect the different world and music of the other track, but for some reason, the programmers just simply didn't cover up one track over the other for each course.

Who could possibly thumbs down this. Easily one of the most entertaining SNES titles ever! I remember playing this with my brother and our friend when we were kids. Times were so much better then.

I think I time traveled watching this.

Believe it or not, when this came out it felt like the most amazing improvement in graphics, looking back at it, they did a great job for the kind of hardware we had available at the time

I used to play this game all the time growing up as a kid. The level of nostalgia is unreal

BLUE FALCON Pilot: Captain Falcon Medium weight, decent acceleration, good top speed, fairly strong body, fair power recharge rate, adequate handling. Good all-around vehicle for all tracks GOLDEN FOX Pilot: Dr. Stewart Very lightweight, insane acceleration, low top speed, frail body, insane power recharge rate, extremely nimble. Good for tracks with many turns, requires total attention to handle effectively. WILD GOOSE Pilot: Pico Heavy weight, okay acceleration, high top speed, rigid body, somewhat lagging power recharge rate, under-par handling. Good for long tracks and can take a beating, but has trouble grabbing the track on tight turns. FIRE STINGRAY Pilot: Samurai Goroh Very heavy, very slow off the line, very high top speed, super strong body, very slow power recharge rate, cumbersome handling. Good for experts and mainly for easy maneuvered tracks, but can also be used in long, perilous tracks as well. The Fire Stingray also has the longest boost duration which is perfect for record runs on a track like Death Wind 1.

The soundtrack is amazing. Reminds me of Megaman. Love the second track, still holds up to this day.

All those years ago, but I still remember every turn ! What an amazing game !

this games soundtrack is my whole childhood

This game has aged surprisingly well for a showcase title. It's still super fun to play today! :D

I had sega megadrive as a kid but swapped consoles with a friend for a few days. When I borrowed his snes and played this game, I was hooked instantly. The gameplay and the music is something I'll carry with me forever. I feel like a kid again watching this. 😁

Snes was an awesome piece of entertainment with games that remain unrivaled in playability and addictiveness. I remember that the simple games were often the most impressive, such as Bomberman. The games were also great fun without the use of extreme violence....Like the amazing Abe where stealth and cunning played a huge part in fully completing each level. Coming from the generation that discovered Space invaders and Pacman these new games were well in advance of any other gaming console available.

me and my wife that all we have been doing during covid 19 playing old super nintendo games love them all.

One of the greatest SNES games ever.

that music takes me back to the arcades in the 90's.

The song in the second race is ultra legendary

Best racing game ever, and it's 25 years old! Definitely a multi platform online multiplayer is needed customizable cars & 30 cars per race!!

I played this game over childhood friends house. RIP. He passed away.

Music is so nostalgic, tell ya what… ahh, back when my days were so much simpler…

One of the most revolutionary and fastest racing games of its time. Mode 7 Blast Processing! Still own the cartridge and I beat this 100%. Still fun. Being one of the very first two ever SNES releases (along with Super Mario World), it's crazy that 1990 was the first time we officially race in supersonic speeds in a future setting...

I could still remember playing this game back in 1999 on a Saudi Arabian flight From Jeddah to Manila! on such long flight there was an in flight entertainment system, I watched cartoons and munching on some delicious Jelly served by the flight attendant. While scrolling around to see games There is that battleship, battle tanks, tic tac toe, and then I saw F-ZERO. I played it and I'm so young for it to play but I was having fun not even getting to finish 1 race iwas just always outside the track destroying my racing spaceship hahaha such good times. That memory from this videogame hit me with pure nostalgia. The music playing along on the first race was memorable. Thank you for this, I just wanted share with you all awesome childhood of mine. :)

only a 90`s kid understands the beauty behind this^^

I'll never forget the first time I played F-Zero. Unbelievable game for the SNES!

Nostalgic

Haven’t played this game in over 25 years. I remembered lines through these tracks like i played it yesterday.

One of my favorite games of all time. Amazing track names as well!

Brings back memories, but I actually played on the hidden difficulty level MASTER ( after killing it on Expert mode ), to beat the hidden mode, you need to do each course "flawlessly" cause your competition is literally inches behind you. One bump out and your reared with no way to recover. That takes a long time to perfect which is why it's a hidden difficulty mode and labeled "Master". The music always got my blood pumping, felt like Tom cruise in Top Gun lol!

They should remake the original F-Zero.

I had this game as a kid and love every minute of seeing my dad beat the king levels on expert. I bought the game sealed in original plastic a few years ago and the first thing I did was open it and played it. It may have been a wrong thing to do by collectors, but I love what I love and wanted to experience that again and I have. I regret nothing

I quite impress by the simulate 3D environment back in my child age. :D

My brother and I spent hours playing this game in 1993/94. Great memories!

Im 14 and i always play this when i was like 5-7 yrs. Old on my uncle's SNES I may not be a 90s kid but i understand the beauty of these games..

This game was simply excellent 🔥🔥 as a budding teenager addicted to the console and the grey import scene. What fantastic music cutting edge mode7 scrolling and amazing presentation. I get that warm feeling whenever I hear or see this game. It was and still is amazing ❤️❤️ Also, the first time I witnessed the lap of honour, what a treat for the eyes. I thought the camera was just going to pan to the side of the ship, and fade into the next level. I wasn’t prepared for a complete lap of honour with multiple camera angles 🔥🔥❤️❤️

Thanx for the good memories, and well played too! : )

I play this so hard as a kid. I've thought about it here and there over the years and finally got up the will to search it because I wanted to play it again.

I loved how all the stages had a vibe to them and the cars and everything

oh the memories... i remember being so fascinated by the shape of the courses displayed on the bottom left

Oh wow I remember playing this as a kid, on Friday nights my mom would take me to Block Buster and let me pick out a Super Nintendo game, this was one I played and man I loved it! Thanks for the upload, it really took me back.

F Zero is back on Switch as F Zero 99!

After 14 years I find this game good God how time flys

Hay dios mío!! casi lloro. Esto es infancia en estado sólido gracias :)

This was my first racing game I SUCKED SO BAD AT IT DX

I can't believe I watched the entire video. Childhood memories and I don't regret it ❤️❤️

I remember playing this in hotels.... late 90's ftw

Got F-Zero when my granny bought me a SNES and absolutely loved it. The music is legendary this brings back so many great memories.

(born in 1985) i love the music, it takes me right back to my childhood! thanks for uploading.

Best.music.EVER.

Everything about this i love.....we played this when i was 8 years old....im 36 now. Wish i had it now...i remember everything lol

The soundtracks in this game make my childhood memories better in the background

Brings back great memories when my father and myself would play! Competitions separately. Always trying to out win him. Miles Vern, from one princess Czarina/Queen to another prince Charming/charmless lol # Speed Demons#

Damn just the beginnings back nostalgia. Then the first race song is all memories

The music is so good in this game! No soundtrack is below mediocre and barely any are mediocre as well

this was the best game to play in the early 90,s took me back😊

THIS TAKES ME WAY BACK!!! This showcased how awesome the sound and graphics were... Mode7

i still think that this game got one of the most stunning soundtrack ever made! *_*

THAT 3RD RACE FINISH THOUGH 9:00

Ive been looking for this game for 20+ years. It was one of the free games on a hotel tv when i was a kid and the only thing i could remember is how it looked and the music. This is crazy.

Man that finish on Sand Ocean was pretty amazing! What a clutch win!

F-Zero for the SNES in expert mode is a challenge experience I miss in modern racing games :/

This game has aged so fucking well

absolutely, i'm 29 yrs old and this was my second snes game after super mario world. those were the days. This game was very challenging at the time.

I'm waiting on my Snes classic to come in the mail and this video is keeping me sane. This was my favorite game as a kid my mom threw away all my Super Nintendo games I can't wait to play this again In Hd

One of the best memories of my youth 🤗

Dat clutch Sand Ocean first place photo finish *Kreygasm*

I never played the original Fzero, but this game is close to being on my GOAT sound track list

One of my all time favorite racing games

Oh man, I miss playing this game so much. Thanks for the video :-)

today, 23/06/2012 it´s just 12 years past from my first play at f-zero. i´m still remember!

Saudades desse jogo. 1991 tempos da adolescência! 🇧🇷

Wow Expert racing Masterful Thanks for showing us the possibilities!

Just bought a SNES w/F-zero because of this 😁

HO LEE FUCK, im havin major flashbacks right now, i totally forgot about this game

This brings back so many memories!! I wish I could play it again

1985 baby here. 😂 These were good times

I wished I lived in Mute City.

childhood memories : )

Jaja I returned to my childhood for a while, thanks, amazing video

On my snes mini classic, this is by far the most enjoyable game. I never get bored of it

So many memories

Glad to see it back in the SNES online

I remember playing this game just to listen to the soundtracks 👍🏼

I may go buy an old SNES just so I can relive all those great memories playing this great game

9:08 - _Barely_ got to 1st place. That was a close shave.

Dieser Sound ^^ .... Musik einer guten Kindheit

I use to play this game all the time. And when I started to play f-zero gx, i played it a bit. but mostly this game. I missed all the games I use to play

The memories run wild when watching this... class!

This game felt like an actual hovercraft.

Esse jogo fez parte da minha infância. Ahhh como eu queria viver mais uma vez essa fase da vida... 🤩

I was really in love with this game during the 90's.

I loved this game. Those memories. Wipeout feelings next then! Thanks for sharing

Excellent A+ title. And to think this was a launch title, insane!

I like the sound effects of the crashes.

I still play this in emulation all the time, classic that will never get old.

I love the sound driver used in this game that was created and composed by Yumiko Kanki, Yasunari Nishida and Naoto Ishida.
