I thought that he just raced really, really fast, then got tired of racing and decided to punch everybody really, really hard.

[enigmaactivate]

So his name is Douglass. J. Falcon. So even if bounty hunting and racing fails him, he can always become


D.J FALCON

[IamSalvatore]

F-Zero's story maybe pure nonsense, but it really does have a potentially rich, if largely untapped, world lore. I actually really love that each of the pilots has a name and background, rather than just being a vehicle with some colors.

[ArcadeCloud]

Who here is hoping that we finally get another F-Zero sequel on the Switch?

[mr.l]

F-Zero is part Hunger Games, part Star Wars, part Speed Racer. I'm surprisingly ok with this LOL

[lostpopcorns]

wait what? the game had a story? who knew

[GanonGhidorah]

Wait...so...Captain Falcon...is the living incarnation...of the Spirit of Light?

...I thought he was just a series of random guys who hide their identity by taking up the Mantle of Captain Falcon, and eventually passing the mantle onto a successor when they cannot continue, because the idea (the symbol) he represents, is much more important than the flesh underneath. Y'know - kind of like Frankenstein from Death Race.

You forgot to mention that Douglas Jay Falcon "dies" (off screen so you never really know) in a heroic sacrifice to stop Black Shadow. Before he throws himself away Douglas bestows the name "Captain Falcon" on Rick Wheeler so he can carry on the legacy of the racer.

Also in fanservice they added the iconic Falcon Punch in the anime where my comment is pulled from, so technically he does have his powers in the series(?) Althougg originally it was completely made up for Smash Bros. it's cool to see it transfer back over to his franshise due to popular demand.

_Personal opinion/fill in the blank:_ This is why Falcon's colour scheme changes between purple (Douglas) and blue (Rick), depending on when/what Falcon is presented.

[MJRSoap]

the primordial spirits are actually the developers.

[shawnvestal]

F-Zero could potentially have as much lore as Star Wars if people decided to put in the time and effort.

[ryanvictoria]

He races to save the world, that sounds perfect to me

[gamersresidence]

He does do a Falcon Punch in the series and it is mighty glorious indeed. Be sure to look for the Hd version. A channrl is upscaling all the episodes ❤

[hinatad]

Sounds like it would be more interesting of it wasn't a racing game.

[CAB-yuuj]

And then Captain Falcon died and Rick Wheeler became Captain Falcon. Not to mention Miss Killer was also part of the Dark Million Organisation.

[johanneshaukanes]

2:03 Wow, so Captain Falcon is a God. O.O
Im fine with that.

[HQ_Default]

It's like they created an awesome story and then just said: "Also, RACING IS FUCKING EVERYWHERE!"

[SlyFrye]

Since there hasn't been F-Zero since 2005 I think it's pretty safe to say thatCaptain Falcon is now known as Captain Falcon from Smash Brothers. Honestly I'm pretty sure the vast majority of people have no idea that he's from a racing series.

[captainHiro]

So basically this combines gx and gp legend

[captainfordo]

Damn, who would've thought that Captain Falcon's most iconic move of all time was actually made up for Smash Bros.? It's kinda like saying the fireball for Mario was made up for Smash.

[weldonwin]

Actually, there was an F-Zero anime, and yeah, Captain Falcon punched a hole in the universe
