The writing issue was Nintendo's fault (fucking Sakamoto), so they'd have to look for someone a little more experienced doing work with sci-fi, if you ask me. As for F-Zero, GX did fine between Nintendo, Sega and Namco, so they should totally go for that again.

They were a great way to give the series more depth and, in all honesty, I can't take any of the other games in the franchise seriously because of how "lacking" and outdated they feel in comparison. AX/GX really raised the bar on the franchise and, maybe that's why Nintendo hasn't made any serious attempt to revitalise it yet.

If I recall correctly, Miyamoto literally has no idea what can be done in a new F-Zero game that would actually warrant its creation. He's actually really surprised to see that people want a new F-Zero for that reason.

Figured as much. Though, really, they'd just need to make the game look prettier and add more content (racers, vehicles, tracks), in all honesty, perhaps give the actual races/tracks a few more gimmicks to keep things interesting (similar to what Mario Kart does with every new entry). Hell, they could maybe have the player create a custom character/racing machine for a full blown story mode and give them the ability to upgrade and alter them throughout.

Really, it's not too much of a stretch, I mean, it is a racing game with a twist. You don't really see Gran Turismo fans going nuts for buying the same game, but with shinier cars with every entry.

I want to be able to jump out of my machine, leap across the track and FALCON PUNCH the shit out of competition.

Pffft.

That should be a minigame in Super Smash Bros. You stand on an F-Zero track with a character like Captain Falcon or Ganondorf and act as a track hazard, getting points for every vehicle you successfully punch off the track and into the abyss. Maybe earn coins, trophies, or stickers for each vehicle taken out?
