F-ZERO
The F-Zero
Grand Prix dates back to the 26th century. This grand
race featured the most technological racing machines competing in
several circuits (or cups) of fast-paces floating action. It was well
known for its wild fans and eccentric competitors. Winners of the
Grand Prix received large sums of money and a great deal of prestige.
Due to the large number of injured participants, the Grand Prix was
canceled several years ago.
The History of F-ZERO
It is said that F-Zero derives from the old F-1 Race of the 20th and 21st
centuries and the F-Max Grand Prix of the 24th century. Over the years, races
became influenced by wealthy ex-space merchants. They thought that a
fast and violent race would be a great way to get people to gamble, so
the ex-merchants established the F-Zero Execution Project.
*F-Zero Machines
By using an opposing-gravity system called the "G-Diffuser System," these
machines can drive at high speeds hovering just inches above ground. Using
their ultra-compact plasma engines, their maximum speeds can exceed
the speed of sound.
*F-Zero Circuits
Courses for F-Zero are set high above cities. Some cities have multiple
circuits--circuits not used for the Grand Prix are open to pilots for
practice.

continue!
We have changed the competition's
name to the F-ZERO X GP and have
revised the rules and regulations.
Here's to the return of a great
competition! We wish you all
success!

_______________________________________________________
GRAND PRIX RACE
Twenty-nine other contestants will race against you in this one-player
circuit.
Select Class
Before jumping into the Grand Prix, you'll need to select a difficulty level:
Novice, Standard or Expert. The higher the difficulty level, the tougher your
opponents.
Select Course
Now you need to select a Cup (or Circuit). There are three Cups to choose
from, each consisting of six courses. Drivers with little experience might
want to start with an easier Cup.
JACK CUP Beginner
QUEEN CUP Intermediate
KING CUP Expert
Select a Cup, and a brief explanation of the first course will appear at the
bottom of the screen. Press the A Button to advance to the Select Machine
screen.
7
_______________________________________________________
This page is very important, so please read it thoroughly.
MACHINE ABILITIES AND SETTINGS
There are 30 machines in total, but you can only select the top six machines
at first. Each machine has different abilities. Body, Boost and Grip are
rated A - E (A being best and E being worst) and appear on the left side of
the screen.
BODY
Body deals with a machine's durability. A machine with a high durability
rating will take less damage when crashing into other machines or guard
rails.
BOOST
If you select a machine with a high Boost rating, your speed will
dramatically increase every time you use Boost (p. 10).
GRIP
A higher Grip rating means your machine will hug curves (or curved surfaces)
better.
MORE MACHINES
Every time you win a Cup, an "X" mark will appear on the Course Select screen.
When you get three "X" marks, you will be able to select from the second row
of machines. The third row of machines will become available when you
receive six "X" marks and the fourth row when you receive nine.
? There are three classes with three Cups. That means you can get a total of
nine "X" marks. But that only lets you select from 24 machines! Herein lies
the mystery: Can you find a way to open up the final row of machines?
8
_________________________________________________________
ENGINE SETTINGS
After selecting a machine, you can adjust the engine settings. Adjusting the
settings customizes your machine. You can customize it towards acceleration
or maximum speed. Press LEFT and RIGHT on the Control Stick to move the arrow.
Press the R or Z Button to change the color of the machine. Press the C
Buttons to rotate your machines and get a better look.
ACCELERATION
It's great for the technical courses that have lots of corners. It's also
great for quick starts and makes drifting easier. When you drive through the
dart zone (p. 13), your speed won't decrease as easily. However, your Maximum
Speed, Boost and Grip power will decrease.
MAXIMUM SPEED
Try customizing your machine this way for those high-speed courses with
straight roads. Maximum Speed, Boost and Grip power increase slightly,
but you won't get those quick starts, and drifting will be a problem.
Abilities and You
Each machine is unique, and its abilities depend on its size and weight.
+============================================================================+
| ||Accel.|Max. speed|Boost |Grip |Turning|Crashing into other machines |
|=====||======|==========|======|=====|=======|==============================|
|Light||Good |Slow |Strong|Good |Quick |Heavy machines will effect you|
|-----||------|----------|------|-----|-------|------------------------------|

SCREEN DISPLAY
For controller operation, please see the attached Operation Card.
Energy Meter
As your machine takes damage, your energy meter gradually reduces. When the
meter turns black, your machine will explode, and you'll RETIRE.
When you are on lap number two, the meter color will change from red
to green. This means you'll be able to use Boost. You can use Boost as
often as you want, but every time you use it, your energy will
decrease. Recover energy in the Pit Area (p. 13).
[ PICTURE: GP Screen ]
Time
Lap time briefly appears each time you pass the finish line.
Top Six
The top six driver pictures will appear here. If the order changes, the
pictures will change as well.
Number of Rivals You've Retired
When you retire a rival, you'll get a star. Each star will slightly replenish
your energy meter. For every five stars, you'll receive an extra machine.
Rival Check Mark
When a rival approaches, this mark will appear.
Spare Machine
Number of remaining machines (p. 13).

Blue square = Leader
Pause Screen
[ PICTURE: Pause Screen ]
*Continue Continue the race
*Retry Restart the race from the beginning. You will lose one machine.
*Settings You can readjust machine settings and retry. You will lose one
spare machine.
*Quit Quit and return to the Select Mode screen.
If you do not have a spare machine, RETRY and SETTINGS will not be available.

________________________________________________________
Time Difference
Each time you complete a lap, the time difference between you and the lead
machine will appear in the center of the screen. If you are in the lead, the
time difference between you and the second place machine will appear.
Press the L Button to make the time difference appear under TIME.
Rivals
For the second Cup race, and every race afterwards, a Rival Mark will appear
on the first place machine (if you are in first place, it will appear on the
second place machine). A successful cup run means you need to pay attention to
the score. If your rival has a large point lead, you'll need to figure out a
way to get him/her to retire.
PRACTICE
On the Select Mode screen, select PRACTICE and you can practice the GP (with
rivals) in the Cup course of your choosing. After selecting the difficulty and
Cup, choose the desired course by pressing LEFT and RIGHT on the Control
Stick.
The same machines that are available in GP will be available in PRACTICE.
While driving, you can pause the game and try a different machine and/or
course. This is a good way to see which machines are good for which course.
*There is no limit to the number of laps. Only the lap time will be displayed.
*You can use Boost at any time.

_______________________________________________________
OFFICIAL RULES OF F-ZERO X
These are the official rules of the F-Zero
X Grand Prix as established by the
F-Zero X Execution project. Adherence to these rules is mandatory for each
pilot wishing to participate in the GP.
1: Standard Rules
1-1 To complete a Cup, you must finish all six courses.
1-2 Each course consists of three laps. Rank will be determined at the finish
of the race.
1-3 Your start position will depend on your rank from the previous race. The
closer you finish a race to first place, the further from start you will
be in the next race. For example, if you finish 1st in the first race,
you'll start 30th in the second race.
1-4 A driver who completes a course will receive points. These points will
depend on where you finish. The driver with the most points at the end of
the sixth course will be declared the winner.
+==========================================================================+
|Rank: | 1| 2| 3| 4| 5| 6| 7| 8| 9|10|11|12|13|14|15|16|17|18|19|20|21|22|
|-------|---|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|
|Point: |100|93|87|81|76|71|66|62|58|54|50|47|44|41|38|35|33|31|29|27|25|23|
|++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|
|Rank: |23|24|25|26|27|28|29|30| |
|-------|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--| |
|Point: |22|21|20|19|18|17|16|15| |
+==========================================================================+
Total Score and Rank
The red and blue triangles indicate movement in the overall rankings.
1-5 After all six courses are completed, if two or more pilots are in first
place, the driver who placed first more often will be the winner. If
there's still a problem deciding a winner, whoever has the highest total
points after the 6 courses are completed will be the winner.
2: Retire
2-1 If a machine loses a race badly, falls off the course or if the Energy
Meter is completely black, the pilot will be forced to RETIRE. Their
machine will be totaled by the Execution Project.
2-2 If the pilot decides to RETRY or CHANGE SETTINGS during a race, it will be
treated as a RETIRE and rule 2-1 will be enforced.
12
______________________________________________________
3: Spare Machines and Retrying
3-1 A pilot participating in a Cup will be allowed to have spare machines.
Only when a pilot has a spare machine will he or she be allowed to RETIRE
and retry a race.
3-2 In Novice Mode, a pilot will have five spare machines. Four will be
available in Standard and three in Expert. One spare machine will be given
to a pilot each time he or she retires five competitor machines.
3-3 If a pilot retires and has no spare machine, the game will be over.
4: Prohibited Action
4-1 Boost is prohibited during the first lap of every race.
4-2 If a pilot is driving the wrong way, the Execution Project will issue a
REVERSE warning. The pilot MUST immediately change directions.
5: Establishments on the Course
5-1 Pilots have the right to replenish their Energy Meter in the Pit Area. The
amount of energy recovered depends on how much time a pilot spends in the
Pit Area.
5-2 The following course establishments are necessary for competition.
Pilots may not dispute or disclaim their existence.
Dash Plate
Speed will temporarily increase.
Trap
Your machine will jump in the air, and your Energy Meter will decrease.
Jump Plate
Your machine will jump in the air.
Dart Zone
Speed will decrease in the Dart Zone.
13
_______________________________________________________
TIME ATTACK
Select a machine and see if you can finish a course in record time. If your
time is fast enough, you'll be able to race against the developer's ghost
machine (or STAFF GHOST).
SELECT COURSE AND MACHINE
When selecting a course, if you select Without Ghost, the Ghost will not
appear.
When on the Select Mode screen, select TIME ATTACK, then choose the desired
course and machine.
THE RESULTS ARE IN!
Race results will appear once you've finished the three-lap race. Press the A
Button to see the top five times. If your time is better than an existing best
time, you will be able to register your initials. All records will be saved to
game memory.
Courses with differences in altitude will affect your machine's speed. These
differences do not count towards your final maximum speed.
14
_________________________________________________________
WHAT IS A GHOST?
After finishing a course, if you re-race the same course, a ghost will appear.
The Ghost is a translucent machine which mimics your previous performance.
Drive with the Ghost and try to improve your time. Up to three Ghost machines
can appear in the same race. If you change courses, the ghosts will disappear.
*If the course is not finished, or if it takes more than three minutes to
finish a course, the ghost will not appear.
*You can update the ghost data even if three ghosts appear in the same
course.
SAVING GHOST
Ghost data will be deleted if you turn the power off and do not save. To save
ghost data, select GHOST SAVE. While up to three ghosts can appear at
the same time, you can only save one to memory.
When a ghost is saved, the course and time will appear. To overwrite saved
data, select GHOST SAVE. When it asks you if you want to replace the current
data, select YES and press the A Button.
*When there are two or more ghosts on one course, the fastest ghost will be
the new ghost.
*Be careful when saving over old ghosts. You don't want to accidentally
delete a favorite!

________________________________________________________
DEATH RACE
In Death Race, your goal is to take out 29 machines before they take you out!
Run 'em off the road; make 'em crash; do whatever it takes to win!
*There is only one course and no difficulty level.
*Best times will be saved to memory.
*There is no limit to the number of laps, and Boost can be used right away.
Remaining Number of Rival Machines
[ PICTURE: Death Race Screen ]
When the number of remaining machines is zero, the game is over.
BEST TIME
You'll get a star for each machine you actually destroyed. You won't get a
star if a rival machine crashes into another.
Tips For a Good Record
*Attack when the rival machines are crowded. You can destroy several machines
at once this way.
*Machines with higher speeds can damage others easier.
*It's more advantageous to drive a heavier, tougher machine.
*Be sure to check your rear view often!
17
________________________________________________________

distribution differs depending on the number of machines in the race.
+==================================================+
| || 2 machines | 3 machines | 4 machines |
|==========||============|============|============|
|1st place || 5 points | 5 points | 5 points |
