I though it was a new Star Fox but its actualy a remake of 64.

I can't wait for this game to sell well ... Because you are to buy the game from the franchise you wanted ,right?...

I wonder if they outsourced any of the development? I know Nintendo's been doing that a lot more as of late. I hope to god it wasn't the studio that worked on the Panzer Dragoon and House of the Dead remakes if so. Those turned out to be pretty ass. Nintendo has worked with them in the past, too. I think it was Donkey Kong Country Returns for the Switch that they were involved with.

For the 3rd time.

I thought people were kidding when they kept saying it was another remake of Star Fox 64, but holy shit, what is this? The third or fourth time now? Is this what it's like to be a Persona fan after ATLUS continues to refuse to acknowledge 1/2? Is there really nothing else you can do with Star Fox, or is there some sort of rights bullshit involving Krystal that keeps the series from moving forward? What's happening here?

The only thing that could save this, would be if this was actually called "Star Fox Anthologies" or some shit and was actually adapting the entire storyline of the series.

I personally thought Star Fox was at its best when they introduced on-ground exploration segments in Star Fox Assault. I liked having something to break up the on-rail shooting sections. I'm not personally interested in a remake of Star Fox 64, but I'm happy for those who are :)

*The more realistic graphics are a... choice

Buddy, I don't even have a Switch 2.

However, that's the same gut reaction I had when it came to all the nonsense cameos in the Super Mario Movie. What was even the point of that? To promote this game?

The characters look like the puppets from star fox 1 but in 2026 cgi

Star Fox is going to be priced around $30 digital / $40 physical (Update: $50 digital / 60 physical)

Ah sweet!
Nintendo: REMAKE STAR FOX 64!
My reaction:

Wow way to kill my hype. God forbid we get a sequel to the Assault timeline, or Zero, or at least port Zero and make it work without the god awful controls. I guess im asking for too much to add the female pilots like in 2 and Assault. Im sure everyone would enjoy Krystal if she was a playable character again.
Im honestly pissed off they are remaking 64 for the third fucking time and probably charge the game 80 united states dollars for a game that had 2 remakes already.

and this game will be subbed and dubbed in portuguese brazilian.

Also, what the hell have they done to my boy...

Tin foil hat conspiracy time for me, but maybe they've gone for those more realistic graphics to have a larger file size and better justify it being a game key card? Presuming the physical release will be a game key card, of course. Not all 1st party Switch 2 games have been, after all.

My own personal bias, but I can't help but feel it would have looked infinitely more appealing visually if they went with a more cartoon-y aesthetic. At least for the character models. The models as they are look a bit "uncanny valley" to me.

Making Starfox 64 again is deeply funny. Graphics look pretty slick and I have no doubt the game will play like a dream, but ooooogh that voice acting is kinda sauceless. I dont have a switch 2 so i have no skin in the game but its neat theyre making it. Streets are saying its gonna be 40 dollars too

I'm actually quite excited for this. I'll admit their Fantastic Mr. Fox designs threw me off, but I think I'm slowly warming up to them. I do agree, I wish they would give us Star Fox 64 controls but with a different set of planets. Star Fox Zero was close, but had its own problems. Still, I'll take this over nothing, it's been a long time since I played SF64

Agreed. They should have gone with Assault or at least make it anime inspired like in the Mario Movie. They nailed Fox design in the movie so why not use that one??? I can't support game key card so i wont be buying this game.
Hoping next time Nintendo would make a new entry and not rehash the game a 6th time.
