Anyone know what the release date for the US version of F-Zero? I'd rather not buy a Jap version when it's released on Thursday...

Maybe so..
maybe not ?
Play-Asia are shipping F-Zero at the moment.
Some will get there's on Thursday, others including myself will get it on Monday.

Japanese? Pfft. It's a racer. What's to know? ;)

I'll find you some links to screenshots .... I'm still toying with the idea of getting a Jap copy but think I'll wait for USA one.
So will I. Apparently there's quite a lot of Japanese text to go through.
look at these shots

(just change the 04 at the end to 05, 06, 07, 08 for four more shots)
By the way, 2 people on fzerocentral.com can read japanese and will translate any menu's etc you need help with

Okie dokie. For the Freeloader amongst you:
Taken from Playasia -
After several rumours which we read on the Internet, we have now tested running F-Zero GX on an American as well as PAL Game Cube™ machine while booting up with Datel's Freeloader disc. We have tried all 3 boot methods and came up with the same weird results on all our Cubes:
F-Zero GX starts to boot up and certain text menus suddenly appear in English language (while the game would usually display Japanese text menus), however the main menu points are missing completely and you have to guess through it until you can start a race. When playing the game itself, certain things such as speed & lap indicator are missing completely which makes it rather difficult to play the game.

Umm, you really need to look at the pics/video's on play-asia.com to get the full picture (no pun intended).
Also I know a chap in Holland who got his copy from play-asia this morning, what service eh
