geoprimedonna Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Yup, it's THAT time of the year again: we are close to the E3 and all we can think about this year is what awaits us for the end of the year. So yeah. One thing that always crosses my mind when thinking of SFXU is the fact of what type of swag we will recieve (and if we will even recieve swag). I personally think the creation and use of amiibo in games was pretty cool, even though Big N copied Skylanders, one way or another. It's simply a tech toy: at day, it's a little decoration for your desktop, at night, it is a hero, a Yoshi, a racer, a whatchamacallit. So I believe amiibos for Starfox is an obvious yes, thing is what the amiibo will be. Characters (playables or NPCs?)? Bosses? Or better: CUSTOM???What other swag could come up as well? Cereal promotions (although I am now having something against cereal... )? Fast food promotions? A prize from Club Nintendo's successor (although nothing is known about it)? Build-a-Bear plushies (I saw several game companies, but not specifically Big N...)? Action figures other than amiibo?Another big question I have that I don't think that actually fits here is if we will get another manga or comic for the next game, if it will be published in English and if US fans can buy it (or, if they do something like they did in SFXAd, if it will come in US versions of the game). Or even a republication of original stories to celebrate a late 20th anniversary.So, what do you expect for Starfox swag in this version of the game?

Arminius H O Fiddywinks Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) Swag? You couldn't say "attention"? You had to say something that dank?Alright, I'll answer your question. Only the Star Fox fans will go nuts. Everyone else will be "Eh". Edited June 1, 2015 by Arminius H O Fiddywinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarFoxMaster64 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Alright, I'll answer your question. Only the Star Fox fans will go nuts. Everyone else will be "Eh".This is correct, Star Fox kind of lives off the fans at this time. However, hopefully the next game will bring the series back to those who are new to Star Fox as well as the fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoprimedonna Posted June 1, 2015 Author Share Posted June 1, 2015 Swag? You couldn't say "attention"? You had to say something that dank? What I mean by swag is Stuff We All Get. Mushabelly logic, for whoever played the online game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arminius H O Fiddywinks Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 She's talking about merchandise and freebies dudeOh. I was mistaken.But as I said before, I'm not really confident that Star Fox WiiU will get attention outside of the fanbase. An amiibo? Yes. Anything else? Probably not.

Komenja Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Amiibo's of the whole Star Fox team? Yes please! I'm also hoping for a shirt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The VGM Lover Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I just came up with a genius swag item based on Komenja's idea. If there's an amiibo of peppy, the Big N could use him to summon cover fire from the Great Fox just like in Area 6 from Star Fox 64. GENIUS!

If there's an amiibo of peppy, the Big N could use him to summon cover fire from the Great Fox just like in Area 6 from Star Fox 64. GENIUS! Same thing I think if they use NPC's. Because Peppy is a bit aged, I think he will become an NPC for now on. Lucy may be playable, though. NPC amiibos could also be Fay, Miyu, Kit, Bill, Katt, Kool, Bowser and Mouser (yes, I think they should be together in the same amiibo), James(?), Beltino, I think that's that. But what if it's a mini-boss (think Master and Crazy Hand meets the amiibo Inklings) that give you missions to get in-game extras (HELLO Out o' This Dimension????)Amiibo's of the whole Star Fox team? Yes please! I'm also hoping for a shirt. That and a Fox and Krystal plushie and my dreams came true... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komenja Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Let's go the extra mile: Tricky plushy.Don't lie, you know you want one. Even if it's just to set on fire, you know you want one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
