Hands On With Starfox Zero: Great Game, Lousy Controls | Controller Crusade

Justin from Controller Crusade writes:
"To say that I was excited to play Starfox Zero would be an understatement. One of my most cherised franchises (and one of Nintendo's best) is returning after a long absence and looks like it plays better than ever. How could I not be excited? I got to try out all 3 stages of the demo: The training stage, Sector 3, and Corneria. Let's start with the first one."

Nintendo really needs to stop using gyros for aiming.

Hopefully StarFox will have different control schemes. It would really suck if we were forced to play the game staring at the low-resolution gamepad screen the whole time.

Every other preview says controls are good even as far as it's the only game that needs both screens and you say the controls are rubbish yeah right...

sirultimos3663d ago

Really? I've yet to see a single preview that didn't complain about the controls.

It's a good ponder. Nintendo would be stupid to not do it. The more titles and first party line up released on the Switch 2 the more enticed the customer will be.

Star Fox Zero, Was it Really That Bad?

Has time been kind to Star Fox Zero? Does the game have any redeeming qualities that are worthy of revisiting? Should it be considered for a port to the Switch? Was it really that bad?

Haven't played it since it came out, but I really enjoyed it. Can't tell if that's just nostalgia-tinted glasses, or if I actually consider it a good game though lol.

Vits1340d ago

It's a mediocre game that reuses ideas, scenarios, characters and moments from previous ones. Paired with one of the worst control methods that I had the displeasure of using.

CptDville1338d ago

Those controls. Boring and frustrating at the same time. Only with co-op they were bearable, but co-op was restricted to finished levels.

SeTTriP1338d ago

Yes couldn't finish it it was so boring.

MissAubrey1338d ago

controls made me stop playing also what good is a 65inch tv when you have to look at a tiny Wiiu tablet.. same with kirby & the rainbow curse..

Einhander19711338d ago

No it was great, just the control scheme spoilt things really. The wii u screen was not needed for it really

I’d rather Star Fox Assault be brought to Switch with online multiplayer instead

Teflon021388d ago

Finally, someone who knows about Assault. Best Star Fox Multi-player imo.

Neonridr1388d ago

or a Star Fox 64 remaster instead.

deadfrag1388d ago

Platinum Games wants to many things but sadly it does not show nothing new for years!They try to jump on all offers but end finishing none!

1: Get rid of the motion controls.

2: Bring us Okami 3.

Good-Smurf1388d ago (Edited 1388d ago )

I rather have them show more of Bayonetta 3 first before they talking about any new project.
This reeks Inafune's funding for Red Ash and Mighty No.9 animated series, both never materialized.
