So you don't know the series, that's fine, but someone who doesn't know a series is never going to advocate for a sequel and their opinion on whether a sequel is 'deserved' is missing some rather critical information. Sales-wise you can make a decent case, quality-wise you can't.
I agree Mario Kart is more fun but F-Zero is a much purer racing experience and is much more challenging, they are VERY different games. It baffles me when people liken Metroid to Halo and the like, I would contend that this comparison is equally stretched. Overall I prefer Mario Kart too but I would still love to see another F-Zero game as its been 12 long years since the last console version.
Having said all that, I strongly feel that Retro would be wasted on it.

I never talked about the quality of F-Zero. Nintendo is a business, they look at sales. If a good game doesn't sell than the concept is flawed.
Of course I won't complain if Nintendo outsources it to a third party studio. The last one was made by Sega.

But if sales was the only factor in the equation why did games like Fire Emblem, Sin and Punishment (and others) get sequels?
Or conversely, why haven't we gotten a sequel to Wii Music which outsold a number of games which have seen, or are going to see, sequels on the WiiU?
