Apparently so. Which is really weird considering they have no problem tossing some of the original SNES tracks in there and they have LITERALLY had the Port Town stage since Brawl, so I have no idea why it took this long.

Then again 90% of the "Earthbound series" tracks are from Mother 1 despite Ness being the character pick rather than Ninten, so I guess it's not even the first time they've made weird music picks.

I actually liked that the new movie acknowledged that by having Lando intentionally pronounce it that way just to annoy him, despite Han trying to correct him.

Rogue One was great and I think a lot of people agree. The amount of nostalgic pandering in Solo was gross desu. I'll admit that Han shooting first gave me a genuine smile however

After TLJ ruined the franchise even worse than TFA did, Star Wars needed a bit of nostalgic pandering. But R1 was indeed the better film. Disney really needs to stay away from making numbered entries, everything else has been interesting at the least but TFA/TLJ were painful to watch and it's like a bad joke that these are the ones they decided to make numbered. I'm worried because we still have one more to get through and if it's as bad as TLJ it might kill the franchise. TLJ already may have considering how Solo performed, but we'll see. At least The Mandalorian is a thing. I trust Favreau, he has satisfied me more than he has let me down.

When humans are attracted to each other, they are also attracted to the chemicals that our bodies create. So we like the smell and taste of the people we most love because we like the feel of these chemicals. Basically kissing is just a process of wanting to taste more and more of these chemicals.

Correct on both accounts. The official Japanese site for F-Zero X doesn't even mention anything beyond:
『F-ZERO』パイロットであると同時に、すご腕の「賞金稼ぎ」として名が通っている。しかしながら彼のプロフィールには謎が多く、ポートタウンの出身であるということ以外、過去については知られていない。

When he first got in Smash, his series only had two games. It's not implausible that his Smash popularity is the only reason F-Zero got more games than that. It just seems like it's never been much of a big seller.

He's also been defined more by Smash than his own damn games due to all his silly moves and goofy shouting his attacks. Honestly i love that.

I busted a gut in the Story mode of Brawl when he accidentally kills all the Pikmin during his dramatic entrance.

Generally they just contact game composers and ask them to submit tracks. The composers choose what to do, Sakurai and the development team aren't the ones who decide on which tracks should be made. They just listen to the submissions and pick what to include.
