Big Blue
From F-Zero Wiki
Big Blue (ビッグブルー; Big Blue) is a fictional planet where 99% of the surface is covered by water.[1] Its circuits are built over and/or through its vast ocean. While appearing less frequently in the games than Mute City, it is still arguably the second most well-known F-Zero location. In F-Zero X, the Big Blue courses are held on planet Odyapes, which is also a watery planet.
In most F-Zero games, it has the appearance of a wide, open sea, with numerous rocks sticking out of the water, and very few buildings. In F-Zero GX, however, Big Blue underwent a significant change in appearance, and looked much more industrial than in the other games, with buildings, hotels, underwater tunnels, etc. found all over the circuits. The planet was strictly protected by the nature conservation group over a long time, but it was rumored that a new energy source laid down at the bottom of the seabed; investigation started right away, although no discoveries have yet been found.[2]
[edit] Appearance in other games
Big Blue in Super Smash Bros. appeared in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl as fighting stages.
