Popular Post DZComposer Posted June 10, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2014 Time Magazine published an online article that seems to have spoiled a couple of announcements!IT IS REALLY HAPPENING! STAR FOX IS COMING TO WII U!This really looks like a tech demo, meaning the game is likely very early in development.In his new version of Star Fox — still fundamentally a spaceship-based shooter — players now use the GamePad’s motion controls to aim and fire the Arwing’s weapons, simultaneously controlling the nimble craft itself by thumbing the joysticks to accelerate or turn and pull off signature moves like barrel rolls, loops and the tactically essential Immelman turn. And you can still morph your Arwing into a land tank, rocketing down to the surface of a planet, then rattling around the battlefield and laying waste to the landscape.But Miyamoto and his team have added a new vehicle mode, one that’s designed to exemplify the new motion control scheme: It lets up to two players pilot a helicopter-like craft, one player controlling the helicopter itself, the other controlling a tiny robot you can drop from a tether to roll around a limited area, either snatching up booty or blasting enemies. Leave the robot hanging as you fly around the battlefield and it becomes a kind of dangling, swingable cannon.I hope traditional controls are still possible, as I'm not a fan of motion controls for flying games. But this new hovership and robot idea is intriguing and has an interesting Star Fox 2 vibe.http://time.com/2850146/shigeru-miyamoto-nintendo-interview/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redeemer Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Well I saw the tease, and what a weird tease it was? I don't know if it's a reboot or what. But I'm hoping for the best. Lol also Robot Chicken/Nintendo have seen the Starfox fans. They have seen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaos_Leader Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Oh you evil, evil Nintendo marketing department, giving us such tiny glimpses, roping me into watching all the other things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psy_commando Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Yay ! The SFO chat wouldn't let me join, so I was chatting to myself on Skype ! forever alone.. Anyways, that looks interesting. I always thought that in SF2 the arwing should have turned into a landmaster kind of thing ! And the helicopter got me really interested ! Especially if its like a big gunship or something like that ! Though, the arwing design leaves me a little perplex.. How will that thing turn into a tank Also, I was hoping they'd get it done for next gen, because Wii U is really gonna hit my wallet hard, for litterally one game...

Jo Jo SmoOth Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Im super exited but... "one thing I'm thinking is that with this star fox we may take a different approach, so that rather than one big title we have multiple releases that are connected through different missions" (Nintendolife.com) -Miyamoto Does that mean it will be a downloadable title since he said it would be like a TV sires instead of a movie series?

conaly Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Hi,ok, Miyamoto himself just confirmed, StarFox is in full development, footage will come, when they think it is enough to show and release about a year from now.Sounds reasonable :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrypticQuery Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I never thought that I'd see this day so soon, and yet now I find it extremely difficult to justify the purchase of a Wii-U for only this and Super Smash Bros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gestalt Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I for one will put back 25 smackers each month til the game comes out, so I don't feel that bad. wallet - wiiU == wallet - 12(wiiU/12) ^ I feel bad ^ I feel less bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drasiana Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Does that mean it will be a downloadable title since he said it would be like a TV sires instead of a movie series? Sounds like episodic games, like TWD games or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo Jo SmoOth Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 @Drasiana Sounds cool to me! Most people prefer physical copies but if its like an episodic game then heck, who cares. Multiple releases! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hope(N Forever) Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Apparently, akin to the development of Pikmin 3, Miyamoto has been working on this game for longer than he should have. It seems the footage they privately shown at E3 is more or less alpha footage, which also applies to the demos for "Giant Robot" and "Project Guard" that Miyamoto demonstrated earlier during the Nintendo Treehouse Live @ E3 presentation. He made a quick mention that the Star Fox game he's promising still needs much more work before being officially unveiled, but hopefully it should be ready sometime by 2015! Crossing fingers over here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T3k0 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Finally! So excited for this. And to quote Miyamoto from the recent TIME interview, "one thing I’m thinking is that with this Star Fox we may take a different approach, so that rather than one big title we have multiple releases that are connected through different missions". Very interesting. Can't wait to see how this plays out. But this is how I feel: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rin Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I had lost all goddamn hope... And then I catch one comment on Tumblr, and then I saw this, and I just completely lost my shit I am so happy, you have nooooo idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ori Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I didn't get the luck to watch the presentation to the end; BUT as it seems they say the story is going to be little BUT they say is going to be episodic. Little story multiple times equals large story. All we ever wanted was large story. ...Doesn't matter if it'll be DLC quest right folks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drasiana Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I think everyone's just sort of assuming that the story is scarce because we didn't really see any. But they don't exactly look like they're at the point in development where they even have finalized character designs, let alone stuff like story synopses and cutscenes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
