Background

James McCloud is the leader of the flight squad Galaxy Dogs. According to F-Zero GX, he is 32 years old and had his combat plane converted into an F-ZERO machine in order to compete in the Grand Prix. During peacetime, there is very little work available, so McCloud has entered his second race in an attempt to take home the big prize money. He is motivated to become the new champion by thoughts of his wife and young son, both of whom need his support. James McCloud joined in the F-Zero X Grand Prix after the races had been reopened with new safety protocols. Although James McCloud didn't win the prize that year, he re-entered the following year for the F-Zero GX Grand Prix. He hopes to win the prize money in order to support his family since he has had little work in recent years. If he wins, he plans to buy his son a racing model of his own.

Equipment

• Little Wyvern: The Little Wyvern is a modified version of the fighter crafts used by the Galaxy Dog squad. The squad's leader, James McCloud, was the person responsible for convincing Space Dynamics to create the machine for him. For Space Dynamics, the Little Wyvern was an experiment to test their acumen in F-Zero machine design. Their main objective was to discover new ways to capitalize on the potential they designed and implemented into their fighter crafts. The machine has decent boost and grip rating in exchange for being one of the weakest machines in terms of body strength.
