F-Zero/Trivia


 * Fan Nickname:
 * "Batman from Hell" for Black Shadow in some circles. Black Batman also works.
 * Given that Mr. EAD's essentially Mario, expect to see nicknames like Gay Mario, Fat Mario, and EADio.
 * 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.
 * Name's the Same: Zoda shares it with the Big Bad of StarTropics. Cue Wild Mass Guessing that they're one in the same.
 * 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:
 * Dummied Out from F-Zero X were souped-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.). Unfortunately, their only other appearance in the series was in the Expansion Kit for X, which was a Japan exclusive on the failed 64DD disk drive add-on. Here, take a look.
 * Zero Racers/G-Zero, the planned psuedo-3D sequel to F-Zero for the Virtual Boy, would have replaced Dr. Stewart with a new character named Origammy. Due to the commercial failure that was the Virtual Boy, this didn't come to fruition.
