F-Zero was developed and published by Nintendo for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It is a futuristic racing video game. This is the inaugural game of the F-Zero series of video games and was first released in Japan on November 21, 1990 and later in North America on August 13, 1991 and in Europe on June 4, 1992 as one of the two debut titles for the Super NES, but in the U.S. this launch title was accompanied by more games.

F-Zero is considered to be the game that set a standard for the racing genre. In late 2006, F-Zero became available for the Virtual Console service on the Wii.
