| ||||||||||||||||||
Mute City (ミュートシティ, Mute City[?]) is a heavily populated fictional city on Earth in the F-Zero series. Its original name was Mutant City[1] from which the current name is abbreviated.[2] In the television anime, F-Zero: GP Legend, Mute City was formerly known as New York.[3] In F-Zero GX, Mute City is known as a "Metropolis in the Heart of the Space Federation" and the information link for the entire universe. It is also regarded as the most advanced and sophisticated city in the universe.[2] This city is the most famous stop on the F-Zero Grand Prix and has courses in almost every F-Zero game to date. The only exception being that of the Game Boy Advance game, F-Zero: Maximum Velocity, where it was replaced by Bianca City. A large deposit of pure titanium was discovered at Bianca City forty years prior to its events. As a result, the village became a boomtown overnight. As it grew, it gradually replaced Mute City as the center of economic, political, and cultural activity in the galaxy.[4]
The over one billion people living in Mute City consist of all kinds of sentient life. A brand new Mute City circuit was just recently constructed in F-Zero GX because the old circuit became too worn and dangerous.[5]
F-Zero games
F-Zero
F-Zero for the SNES has three Mute City tracks. Mute City I is the first track in the game and the Knight cup. The track is a simplistic circuit with one jump panel in it. Mute City II is the first track in the Queen cup and the sixth overall. This track has a circular area in it where the player can take one of two paths and two jump panels. This shows Mute City in the evening. Mute City III is the opening circuit of the King cup and eleventh track in the game. This race takes places at nightfall and is the hardest of the three courses, with mines.

F-Zero Climax
F-Zero 99
F-Zero 99 features said track at the start of the game.
Super Smash Bros. games
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Mute City appears as a stage in Super Smash Bros. Melee, using modern-day graphics, where a single flat platform will carry all fighters to various parts of the Mute City track. Each part of Mute City's track has a different arrangement of platforms, and sometimes even pink panels that cause characters to skid. While fighting on top of the moving platform, it is possible to land on the road of the course. However, this will damage the character, and knock them upwards. F-Zero racers will drive over the course, including the Blue Falcon itself, whether Captain Falcon is fighting or not. If the vehicles make contact with a character, the character will be launched upwards after taking damage. However, the vehicles can also be retired after sustaining enough damage from attacks.

F-Zero courses are set hundreds of feet above ground and kept afloat by opposing-gravity guard beams on both sides of the tracks. Mute City, which grew from an intergalactic trading post to a city with a population of over two billion, is the most famous stop on the F-Zero Grand Prix. This course layout is from the F-Zero X era. | Randomly Obtained. |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Although a stage does not exist in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, there is a stage called Port Town Aero Dive that uses a remix version of Mute City theme as a possible audio track that plays during fighting.
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS
A completely different Mute City stage appears in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS. Unlike the previous Mute City stage, this takes a more 16-bit approach to its art style, trying to replicate the appearance of the original F-Zero game. Characters now fight on top of the Blue Falcon, and two additional platforms to each side. The Blue Falcon will be racing through the original Mute City course, though this makes no difference to the layout of the stage as the race progresses. If a character lands on the road itself, they will be knocked upwards.

NTSC-U: F-Zero is an interstellar race spread over nine different planets. The Blue Falcon sprints through Mute City, the first circuit in the Knight League.

PAL: A metropolis in the heart of the Space Federation, where all the racing leagues begin in the original F-Zero game. In this tricky stage, you fight on top of the Blue Falcon as it thunders along the track, switching to different vehicles suddenly as the race rages on. Whatever you do, don't fall onto the track. That's sure to hurt! |
