Technically, it’s last game was on GBAdvance actually, and ironically only released in Japan (based on the second half of the anime) where F-Zero is less popular compared to America. (The first game on SNES was a “million seller,” don’t forget.)
Supposedly, Miyamoto was surprised when somebody told him people want a new F-Zero, so I think Nintendo just didn’t think the game was popular enough.
Hopefully, 99’s popularity (despite some backlash, it’s doing well and has many players, and getting free DLC soon) will help F-Zero become less niche’, and maybe lead to a revival.
