Reggie shares his thoughts as to why there hasn’t been a new F-Zero

Nintendo has many franchises that it supports, but F-Zero is one IP that’s been neglected for many years. F-Zero Climax on the Game Boy Advance – which only released in Japan – was the last entry in the series, and it came out way back in 2004. You have to go back to the GameCube in 2003 as the last home console title with F-Zero GX.
Reggie Fils-Aime retired as the president of Nintendo of America back in 2019, but he was around for all of those years that F-Zero went on hiatus. In an interview with GamesBeat, he shared his own thoughts as to why the franchise has been “abandoned”.

The annual Atlus survey is now live until May 15, inviting North American residents to share their opinion on Atlus developed and published games. Whilst the website states that the survey is for North American residents only it is accessible for everyone, and only requires an e-mail address to access to ensure multiple responses from the same person aren’t submitted, so fans in other parts of the world are able to participate if this wish.
Atlus have released a short video to promote the survey (see below) and you can access the website here. The survey contains 49 questions, and includes questions about titles released on the Switch, and what platform players would like to see future titles in series such as Persona, Shin Megami Tensei, and Etrian Odyssey appear on, as well as potential remakes and ports of existing titles such as Odin Sphere Leifthrasir and Dragon’s Crown Pro.
Will you be participating in the survey this year?
