Unlock Falcon MK-II | Updated 25 Jul |
| To get it, you need to beat the Pawn, Knight, Bishop AND Queen series on Expert difficulty. |
Unlock Jet Vermilion | Updated 25 Jul |
| Here's the ultimate F-Zero racer. Jet Vermilion is insanely fast when you're boosting and has the strongest body out of all of the machines but it's so hard to get, most gamers will give up and run away in horror. You have to actually complete each racing series on Master difficulty with each machine (chess icons next to the track selection screen show you which series you have already beaten with the respective racer). If that sounds too difficult, you can also unlock Vermilion by completing the championship 255 times. |
Erase All Data | Updated 17 Jul |
| If for some reason you would like to delete all your scores and saved game data, simply hold L and R while switching on your GBA. You will then be asked whether you would like to delete everything select Yes to execute the function. |
Expert Technique 3 Perfect Landing | Updated 17 Jul |
| Many of F-Zero's later tracks contain shortcuts that let you jump ahead of the pack by using jump plates. Be sure to look at the track layout in the lower left corner of your screen to see potential shortcuts. But knowing where they are isn't enough. You also need to know how to properly land without losing speed. If you just touch down on the track, your craft will bounce and you will slow down. You can avoid this by pressing down on the pad just prior to landing. |
Expert Technique 2 Blast Turn | Updated 17 Jul |
| Like the Rocket Start, the Blast Turn is another expert technique. To successfully maneuver tight corners without bumping into the guard rails, take your finger off the accelerator (A Button), then press it again to stabilize your racer. Combine this with the L and R drifting to get the best times. |
Submitted Code | Updated 26 Jun |
Go to the machine display screen in grand prix mode and press:
L, R, Start, R, L, Select. |
Expert Technique 1 Rocket Start | Updated 26 Jun |
| F-Zero's quick start is a bit different from most Nintendo racers so forget about trying to hit the A-Button when the lights turn green. To get the fastest start possible, hold down your accelerator prior to the start and rev the engine to the point where your fuselage(s) begin to light up. Now listen to the engine sound. You want it to be in the mid-range, not the high-pitched sound that occurs when you continue to hold down the accelerator. If the engine is in the mid-range when the race starts, you will get a fast start that propels you in front of the pack. If you rev the engine too high, you will also boost ahead but then lose power and slow down for a few seconds. |
Unlock Fighting Comet | Updated 26 Jun |
| And just when you thought they'd run out of cars here comes the Fighting Comet. But you need to work to unlock it. Beat every series on the Master Class difficulty. |
Unlock The Stingray | Updated 18 Jun |
| To unlock the second hidden car, the excellent Stingray, you have to beat all Pawn, Knight and Bishop tracks on Expert difficulty. |
Reset Game | Updated 18 Jun |

Hidden Demo Mode | Updated 18 Jun |
| To see an explanation of the above expert techniques and watch the computer complete a perfect lap and show you when to brake and when to boost, simply press the Select Button at the title screen. |
Unlock Championship Mode | Updated 18 Jun |
| Not to be confused with the standard Grand Prix Mode, Championship is a hidden option that lets you race a Time Attack challenge against a ghost car on a specialy Synobazz track. The mode also offers the ability to see a replay of the winning run, complete with button commands display. To unlock it, register your name in the rankings of every race in every series. |
Ranking Password | Updated 18 Jun |
| Nintendo has designed F-Zero with tournament play in mind. Since you can't upload your best times or take screenshots, the game features a built-in ranking password system. To obtain an encrypted password for your best track times, select Course Ranking from the main menu, then select your name and the track you would like to get a password for. Now hold the L-Button and press up, right, right, B, left, B, A. Your tournament entry password will now appear at the top of the screen and you can write it down. Nintendo uses passwords like these to let you enter into official tournaments, so keep an eye out for them. |
Unlock The Queen Series | Updated 18 Jun |

Unlock Sly Joker | Updated 18 Jun |
