F-Zero Star Fox
#1
I know some of these are discussed on site, but I just wanted a single trivia under bother series noting all the links.
First instance is James McCloud. Here is the F-Zero James McCloud:

Here is the Star Fox Jame McCloud (center):

The two wear what is clearly very similar jackets and jumpsuits. They even have the same belt buckle.
The F-Zero James is the leader of a mercenary fighting force known as "Galaxy Dogs" (a clear parody of Star Fox). He had his combat plane converted to a F-zero racer in an attempt to win and earn more money to support his wife and young son. At one time, his closest partner was even a man named O'Donnell, a possible reference to Wolf O'Donnell of Star Fox. In F-Zero X, he even states that he "drives like a sly fox".
Star Fox Jame McCloud is the leader of a mercenary fighting force known as Star Fox, who is supporting his young son.
Oh, and here's that converted plane, the Little Wyvern:

And an Arwing, from the StarFox series:

What is even more interesting is that the similarities of their ships aren't just looks. Both are powered by G-Diffusers. Both were designed by companies known as "Space Dynamics".

Now, this has all been noted to be a running joke done by the developers of the F-Zero games.

This is just one tie in of the two games. i will be posting more tie ins in this thread later today.
