CVG - Star Fox 64 set a high water mark back in 1997, both for Nintendo's rare dabblings in the shmupping genre and for the Star Fox series itself. Neither ever approached that standard again, and with subsequent games farmed out to developers including Namco and Rare, it seemed as though Nintendo had washed their hands of the whole business.
BLG writes: "While it didn’t sell as well as the Nintendo DS, the Nintendo 3DS was nonetheless a wonderful system. And, while this may be a hot take, it’s easily my favorite handheld. Even more than a decade removed from launch, the system’s library has so many titles that feel as fresh today as they did back at release. While it was hard to narrow down, these 30 Nintendo 3DS games are emblematic of the system’s success."
Star Fox 64 3D, for the most part, focuses on improving the original in areas that matter, and the end result is worth respecting.
They need to release a new one and not screw around with motion controls, and actually put some challenge into it and not make it too much of a kids game where it's too easy.
Several Nintendo Selects titles are on sale for $15 at Amazon right now. The deals include Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D, Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D, Super Mario 3D Land, and Star Fox 64 3D.
