I'd actually argue that a live-action adaption of Metroid would not work that well either. Assuming that it's based on the older games (e.g. Prime, Fusion, or Super Meteoid), there wouldn't be very much dialogue. It could be an interesting and successful hit if the movie could somehow deal with that hurdle (perhaps by adding a bunch of minor monologues) while still keeping the thematic elements that made Metroid Metroid.

As for F-Zero, it seems to be more suited towards an animated medium anyways. Zelda probably has the largest chance out of any of them to have a live-action adaption that would work well, but I wouldn't get my hopes up for it.
