Nintendo Software Technologies artist @morimotes_ has taken to social media to say how happy he is with the reaction online to F-Zero 99's recent 1.5.0 expansion and the fact that it brings "lost" circuits to the game.
The patch also adds an expanded practice mode, but for Nintendo historians, the real news here is the introduction of tracks that were previously exclusive to the SNES Satellaview add-on, which never made it out of Japan.
"This is definitely my favourite patch I've worked on," says @morimotes_. "Bringing the Satellaview Tracks that were pretty much lost in time to F-ZERO 99 was a treat, and seeing fans reaction to it was so so great, If you play this game, Thank you."
The new circuits include MUTE CITY IV, SAND STORM I, BIG BLUE II, SAND STORM II and SILENCE II, all taken from the Ace League of the BS F-ZERO GRAND PRIX game.
Fellow NST staffer @NiderQueen is in agreement:
The Satellaview launched in 1995 and used satellite technology to allow players to download games and take part in special broadcasts. The service closed in 2000.
