* [[Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avgYsIKkBLQ#t=0m38s This] video briefly analyzes the Landmaster. Apparently ,it's an enormous target with relatively thin armor. No wonder Falco prefers the sky.

** Of course, that video forgets the tank has an Energy Shield in the place of armor and the fact that the armor could be an advanced alloy far stronger than anything the modern military uses.

* [[Shout-Out]]: The ''Star Fox'' series seems to have a number of reciprocal Shout Outs in relation to ''[[F-Zero]]''. For starters, Fox McCloud and Falco Lombardi may have ''originally'' been Shout Outs, being an anthropomorphic ''Golden Fox'' and ''Blue Falcon'' respectively. Then, James McCloud (outfit and all, but in non-anthropomorphic human form) became a character in the ''F-Zero'' series starting with ''F-Zero X''. Then ''Star Fox Command'' references ''F-Zero'' yet again, {{spoiler|where one of its nine possible [[Multiple Endings]] has Fox and Falco becoming racers in a high-speed racing league called G-Zero.}}

** General Pepper not only owes his name, but also his very outfit, to the landmark album by [[The Beatles]]; Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band.

*** Captain Shears, a character from "Farewell, Beloved Falco", is similar in both physical appearance and attire to Pepper and appears to have a name derived from "Billy Shears", the fictitious leader of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

** Falco is wearing [[F-Zero|Captain Falcon's boots]] in one of the ''Command'' endings.
