Wow, looks like a definite must-buy for me. Star Fox 64 is a top 5 N64 game for me and even though it’s fairly short, one of the most replayable games.
On the one hand, it looks sick and I absolutely want it. On the other hand, totally convinced Nintendo legitimately just does not know how to make a sequel which is why they keep remaking 64 over and over.
So I feel like Nintendo surprise dropping this Direct just for Star Fox instead of just putting it in a summer showcase Direct maybe doesn't bode well for us actually getting another big Direct, does it?
Day 1 buy easily. Loved Star Fox 64. No need to fix what isn’t broken. Also added online is good. The redesign though…looks a little uncanny. Too realistic for Fox and Slippy lol
Given how they revolutionized Zelda and Donkey Kong recently, the inability to evolve Star Fox is strange.
To be fair, they've tried "evolving" Star Fox in the past, it's just been terribly executed. I think Star Fox is the exact kind of game where a sequel shouldn't be reinventing the wheel.
I like Falco's and Pippy's designs. They still look animalistic, but not to the extend of Fox and Slippy. The webcam feature that lets you look like a member of the crew lol that is neat and bizarre
I loved playing the original as a kid and I have very limited memory of it, so for that I will be curious to maybe play this. However, I think I was hoping for a fully new game created for the Switch 2. Maybe eventually!
Damn, kind of a buzzkill for me. Really do not like the redesigns - totally unnecessary and weird. Fox looks like the taxidermy meme. And while the multiplayer stuff looks good I can't believe it's otherwise just a straight remake. 30 years and they still haven't moved on to Star Fox 64 2 yet lmao (one of the most layup possible sequels they could make)
