A few F-Zero Racers in Big Blue
An F-Zero Racer is a special racing vehicle from the F-Zero series. These hovering vehicles appear as platforms and obstacles in the Big Blue and Mute City stages of Super Smash Bros. Melee. In Mute City, the F-Zero racers will occasionally drive past the battlefield, damaging any players who get hit. However, their knockback is quite weak on high handicapped players, often making it impossible for them to KO anyone. Players are also able to jump on hovering platforms to avoid getting hit. On a side note, players can damage and even destroy the F-Zero Racers on this stage.
In Big Blue, the players actually fight on the F-Zero Racers, in a side-scrolling level. However, if a player falls off a F-Zero Racer or the platforms hovering above them, they will hit the race track and likely be scrolled offscreen into the blast zone, KOing them.
In the stage, F-Zero Grand Prix, the F-Zero Racers will drive around the stage, and if any players are in their path, they can be heavily damaged and even KO'd.
The F-Zero Racers return in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, appearing in the Port Town Aero Dive stage. They have the exact same role as they did in the Mute City stage from Melee, driving past the stage, ramming into players who are standing on the track. Unlike in Mute City, however, the F-Zero Racers on this stage cannot be attacked, and they can KO players at below 100% damage. As a result, they are much more dangerous to players on this stage.
The Blue Falcon, Captain Falcon's F-Zero Racer, appears as a sticker in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, F-Zero Racers also appear in the games' Mute City SNES stage. The racers in this stage are stylized like their 16-bit sprites in the original F-Zero game, and serve as platforms for the players to stand on. However, when a second racer appears, the one already on the stage eventually has a CHECK warning appear on it. Soon, the racer knocks away the one with the CHECK on it, KOing any players on the one with the CHECK.

| Description | |||
| In the year 2560, an association of wealthy space merchants created the F-Zero Grand Prix in an attempt to add some excitement to their opulent lifestyles. The jet-powered racers have no tires, but use G-Diffuser systems to float a foot above the surface. Many believe the F-Zero championship is the highest claim to fame in the galaxy. | |||
