@LuigiBlood. “...huh. Interesting. F-Zero 99 has a bunch of unused files... including brand new tracks? One of them actually reuses the name of one of the Satellaview exclusive ones… All of them are mostly just Mute City I placeholders though, with some different backgrounds.” Twitter, 16 Sept 2023 11:21 p.m., https://twitter.com/LuigiBlood/status/1703096847227551864.
