History
Captain Falcon is quite a well-known and accomplished bounty hunter, hailing from the futuristic city of Port Town in the 26th Century. It was during this time a new racing sport emerged, boasting high-speed, gravity-defying physics. It was known as the F-Zero Grand Prix. Despite the dangers that are ever present on and off the racetrack, including those from the intergalactic terrorist Black Shadow, Captain Falcon always stepped up to face the danger. Piloting the Blue Falcon, Falcon had become the Prix's three-time reigning champion. And even off the racetrack, he strives to inspire with a strong and fiery sense of justice.

Notes
- ↑ Archival recording from Johnny Cage VS Captain Falcon

- ↑ Going off his helmetless model, the Captain Falcon featured in Death Race is the one from the F-Zero games, known in F-Zero X's localization material as Douglas Jay Falcon.
