Nintendo mentions F-Zero Climax to retailers

New Game Boy Advance F-Zero title set to be unveiled soon. After GP Legend, we're somewhat, ah, charged up for this one.

Given our love for F-Zero: GP Legend on the Game Boy Advance (read some of our love notes here), we were pleased today to discover that Nintendo appears to be producing another F-Zero title for its ever-popular handheld.

According to Japanese retail sources, Nintendo recently issued invitations for a new product demonstration meeting on August 1st, where it plans to show off Pokémon Emerald (GBA), Fire Emblem (GBA) and Zoids Vs. III (Cube) alongside another previously unannounced title, "F-Zero Climax", on Game Boy Advance.

Given that the other three games should be out fairly soon in Japan, we'd also wager that we won't have too long to wait before we're actually playing Climax, whatever it turns out to be, although given the length of time it took GP Legend to make the transition from Japan to Europe (which it did directly, for once), we wouldn't imagine we'll be playing anything but the Japanese version for a fair while longer.
