  • E3 2012: The F-Zero Franchise Joins the Nintendo Land Line-Up

    Suit up your Mii like Captain Falcon and race for the finish line.

    One by one, Nintendo Land's 12 different attractions are being revealed. This morning's press conference confirmed the first five, and tonight, during the company's developer discussion meeting, we've just learned the sixth: F-Zero.

    That's right, after an absence from home consoles since 2003, Nintendo's futuristic racing franchise is finally being recognized once again. F-Zero's mini-game in Nintendo Land will involve your Mii character hopping into the cockpit of a hovercraft racer like Captain Falcon's and doing your best to race toward the finish line while avoiding obstacles on the track like spinning tornado traps.



    A second player can also use the Wii U GamePad during this mini-game, but Nintendo didn't want to reveal what that person was up to. A safe bet, though? That person was probably controlling the placement of the hazards on the track, trying to keep the racer from actually finishing.

    With F-Zero now confirmed, we know of exactly half of Nintendo Land's attractions so far. The other five include representations of the Donkey Kong, Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion, Legend of Zelda and Mystery of Murasame Castle franchises.
