This is the quintessential futuristic racing game from its time. Everything about the game, from the music to the map design, works to further the experience of racing at impossible speeds.
It might be the first game I've ever played that got the adrenaline pumping, and it stands out as a favorite of mine even years later.

F-Zero is an absolute blast and a true testament to classic arcade-style racing on the SNES. The tracks are wildly designed, pushing the console's Mode 7 capabilities to the limit. It's tough as nails, with a steep learning curve for mastering its high-speed circuits. While the lack of multiplayer and a short overall playtime are its flaws, the futuristic visuals, iconic soundtrack, and intense sense of speed make this a gem for retro racing fans.
