'''F-Zero X''' is a futuristic racing game that acts as the second ''[[Portal: F-Zero|F-Zero]]''. This game pushed the [[Nintendo 64]] to it's limit by displaying 30 racing machines at a rate of 60 frames per second. In order to do this, the quality of the 3D models themselves were sacrificed.

=Story=

The original F-Zero Grand Prix was ended after a large accident. Many of the pilots, including [[Captain Falcon]], were injured, but none were killed, thanks to the efforts of [[Dr. Stewart]]. The rules have been revised and the race is now known as F-Zero X. This is the first F-Zero X Grand Prix.

=Gameplay=

In Grand Prix Mode, the player races against 29 other racers in a tour of various courses. The player can choose Novice, Standard, Master, or Expert difficulties for this mode. In each race, they are given a certain amount of points depending on how they place. Whoever has the most points at the end of the Grand Prix in the winner.

In Multiplayer Mode, two to four players can compete. If there are less than four players, the computer will control the remaining racers. If a player gets knocked out of the race, they enter VS Slot. BY doing well in VS Slot, the player can make the race's leader loss half or all of their energy.

Other modes include Death Race, Time Attack, and Practice.

=Legacy=

The game was extremely popular in Japan, selling over 50,000 copies within a week of it's release.

Two years later, ''F-Zero X Expansion Kit'' was released. Available only in Japan for the [[Nintendo 64DD]], the expansion kit added lots of new content. This included new cups, new machines, and machine editor as well as a track editor.

==Ports and Remakes==

*In 2007, ''F-Zero X'' was released for download over the [[Wii]]'s [[Virtual Console]]. It was also later made available as part of the [[Wii U]]'s [[Wii U Virtual Console|Virtual Console]] in 2016 and 2017.

==Sequels==

The next game in the series is ''[[F-Zero: Maximum Velocity]]'' for the [[Game Boy Advance]], but ''[[F-Zero GX]]'' is the next ''F-Zero'' game for home consoles.
