Star Fox General Thread - One of Nintendo’s neglected franchises.

Btw, I got to do a little demo run of two games. Two Foxlikes.

Wild Blue Skies and FUR Squadron Phoenix.

Wild Blue Skies presentation wise looks great but the fact you can’t remap controls or even feel sluggish with the ships right out of the box concerns me.

FUR Squadron Phoenix has the opposite problem where the controls and gameplay feels solid but presentation definitely needs more work.

Either way, these two does show me how different people approach the Star Fox .

Been playing on expert mode, I don't think I ever completed a whole run at that difficulty on 64 just because I was so annoyed by constantly losing my lasers. I can deal with that now for the part since I mainly rack up kills with the charged shot anyway. But Venom I is absolute hell in expert mode. Not since I was a kid did I ever have to worry about my lives, but I was down to my last one by the time I reached the checkpoint just because of all the enemy spam in the first half of the level. And I actually was abusing the reset function to keep my lives. So I died about ten times just from shit I didn't have time to even pause the game for to pull up the menu

Weirdly enough Area 6 barely plays any different in expert mode, I got to the end of that level in just one try. It's funny how much easier the supposed hard path is in this difficulty mode

Missed opportunity to expand the story and missions. Imagine if they created completely new levels per planet with the story being Star Fox is hired to take out Andross' stragglers, the ones that survived and want to continue the fight. New enemies and bosses, same planets but different level layouts/locations. Even rehashing the same levels and enemy types with different spawn points and groups would have been cool. Instead they wasted time and resources on that creepy vtuber thing. New content like how they did Super Mario RPG remake would be worth a buy imo.

I've seen more people make shitposts and memes over the vtuber shit than anything else honestly. There's only so much new shit you can give to an old game before there's nothing left to do. Its just another Nintendo novelty which is a tried and true tradition with the Star Fox franchise where Nintendo would do it to test things out.

I been having more fun with battle mode as Star Wolf. May play with some friends over the weekend.

I honestly wanna see a sequal to this, minus Krystal to anger the sweaty fanboys of her. Maybe more Katt and the Forever Train Conductor.
