I haven't heard anything, but you can download the original F-Zero on virtual console.

...what's virtual console...?

It can be accessed through the Wii shop channel. Basically you can download games for a certain amount of Wii points (purchase a Wii points card) from past systems. I myself enjoy a good game of Mario on Virtual Console. Also purchaseable is WiiWare, which is lower-budget games that aren't quite enough to be published on actual discs, but you can download them to your Wii.

There's a "sci-fi tube shooter" called Gyrostarr that you might like. It uses Space Ships, it's loads of fun.

Super Crazy Guitar Maniac Deluxe 2 is the best online game evar.

I couldn't find it anywhere and didn't feel like ordering it on ebay so I just downloaded Grim Fandango <33333333

Back in the day when Lucasarts made good games instead of milking the Star Wars franchise from George Lucas' teats. Anyone else miss the point and click adventure games of the '90's? I try not to surround myself in nostalgia but I have so many fond memories of trying to figure out the puzzles and listening to the brilliantly written dialogue and the characters you actually give two ****s about.

currently playing Psychonauts.

And to those talking about F-Zero, on virtual console download the N64 one. It is the high point of that series in my opinion.
