GamesAsylum: "From as far back as the 16-bit era the Star Fox games have arguably featured control systems that take time to acquaint with. The original Star Fox introduced easily confused ‘90s kids to inverted controls – ourselves included – while early N64 release Star Fox 64 added somersaults and other aerobatic manoeuvres. These initially wayward controls soon became second nature though, usually as early on in as the second stage. We’d always begin our descent into Corneria by flying sideways while playfully dipping a wing into the water below, such was the accuracy of the N64’s analogue stick."
Takaya Imamura, famed ex-Nintendo developer known for his work on the F-Zero and Star Fox franchises, has taken to social media to ponder the possibility of a Star Fox Zero release on Nintendo's upcoming 'Switch 2'.
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.
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.
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.
Those controls. Boring and frustrating at the same time. Only with co-op they were bearable, but co-op was restricted to finished levels.
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..
No it was great, just the control scheme spoilt things really. The wii u screen was not needed for it really
But any potential design changes would be up to Nintendo if it happens.
I’d rather Star Fox Assault be brought to Switch with online multiplayer instead
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!
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.
Ouch. This game is really getting some bad reviews, most of which mention that the controls make the game a chore to play, the stealth sections are slow and boring, and many of the vehicles just don't control well. It's hard to believe that Platinum Games developed this game, they usually do a better job.
