This is why Nintendo has lost me over the past generation. They have no problem releasing rehashed Mario and Pokemon games every couple of years because the kids and casuals buy them by the boatload and they can put minimal effort into them, but when it comes to less "popular" franchises like F-Zero that the loyal core fans clamor for, they come up with lame excuses as to why they currently have no plans to release new installments.

Mainly because that would require some actual effort on their part, and God forbid they actually advertise their games so that people other than the most loyal of the loyal Nintendo fans know they even exist.

Hey Nintendo fans... want a sequel to the cult classic Eternal Darkness, a true StarFox game, or a new F-Zero racer with awesome track design, visuals and music? Well fuck you... here's Mario Kart 8 and a simplistic 3D Mario game... deal with it!

I get what ur saying but it makes sense financially. Mario Kart and Mario are consistant 10m+ sellers. F-Zero has 4 installments eith each selling less than the previous, with the moat recent not even coming close to 1 million sales.
