Speculation has been ramping up with regards to a potential Nintendo Direct next week, and now a reliable leaker has hinted that something F-Zero related might be announced. This could be anything from a new game, to the addition of a GameCube title to the Nintendo Switch Online service.
The leaker, known as Pyoro, tweeted ‘Let’s just say fans of a certain MATLAB function will be happy with the upcoming Direct.’ This is a reference to MATLAB’s ‘fzero’ function. Pyoro has a good track record of accurate predictions, having correctly hinted at a new 2D Mario game and SNES remake in the June Direct, and a Detective Pikachu reveal.
This could mean that the much-desired F-Zero game could finally be coming to the Switch. It was rumoured last year that a full remaster of F-Zero GX was in development at Luigi’s Mansion studio Next Level Games, but there was no solid evidence to back up the claim. Pyoro’s tweet could mean that the original GameCube title, or something else entirely, will be announced in the upcoming Direct.
Another leaker, Syluxhunter, seems to corroborate Pyoro’s claims, as they replied to them with a GIF of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Carl Weathers from Predator in their famous handshake. Syluxhunter had previously claimed something F-Zero related was in the works last year, although they warned fans to ‘manage their expectations’.
Pyoro has also teased other announcements in the upcoming Direct. They recently posted a GIF of Donkey Kong from the Super Mario Bros. Movie, which could suggest that the long-rumoured Donkey Kong game is finally on the way.
Will we finally get the F-Zero game we’ve been waiting for? We’ll have to wait and see what Nintendo has in store for us. Make sure to keep an eye out for the upcoming Direct, as we might finally get some answers.
