F-Zero Racer: Difference between revisions

An '''F-Zero Racer''' is a special racing vehicle from the ''F-Zero'' series. These hovering vehicles appear as platforms and obstacles in the [[Big Blue (stage)|Big Blue]] and [[Mute City (Super Smash Bros. Melee)|Mute City]] stages of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. In Mute City, the F-Zero racers will occasionally drive past the battlefield, damaging any players who get hit. However, their knockback is quite weak on high handicapped players, often making it impossible for them to KO anyone. Players are also able to [[jump]] on hovering platforms to avoid getting hit. On a side note, players can damage and even destroy the F-Zero Racers on this stage.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', F-Zero Racers also appear in the games' [[Mute City SNES]] stage. The racers in this stage are stylized like their 16-bit sprites in the original ''F-Zero'' game, and serve as platforms for the players to stand on. However, when a second racer appears, the one already on the stage eventually has a CHECK warning appear on it. Soon, the racer knocks away the one with the CHECK on it, KOing any players on the one with the CHECK.

The Blue Falcon, has appeared as a cameo in the German Club Nintendo comic, ''[[Super Mario: Im Rausch der Geschwindigkeit]]''. Also, during the ending of a chapter in volume 4 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', Mario and Yoshi are chased by F-Zero Racers.
