F-Zero: GP Legend is a Game Boy Advance video game, and the last F-Zero game that was released on the popular handheld. Not only was it a video game, though it should also be noted that it was a popular, for a short time, TV show on Fox, and included the same characters that were in the GBA game, including classics such as Captain Falcon and Jody Summer.
[edit] Gameplay
F-Zero video games are known for including some of the most intense races in the video game industry, notably because of the speed that the futuristic vehicles climb up to. While the main objective is to go fast in the game, it's also suggested that you break and make sharp turns by pressing the B button (break) and L & R buttons (sharp turns/lean).
While racing, you'll notice plenty of areas where there's a blue lining on the edge, if you're going a nice speed, then drive over this; instead of following down below, you'll be launched into the air, though for the short time you're in the air you'll also have to maneuver your vehicle as well so that you'll be able to land back on the track. You'll also see boost tracks while racing that'll make you go even faster than before.
Attacking other vehicles is also another tactic that you're able to perform. To violently ram into your opponent, tap either L or R button twice, and you're vehicle will go either left or right respectively. If you manage to hit your opponent, he'll be damaged and you won't.
[edit] Anime
An anime series based on this game aired on 4K!ds TV for fifteen episodes, but was eventually canceled.
