Thoughts on the recent Zippo leaks?

Zippo is back at it again, which for someone with a track record like him I don't think we should get excited.

What do we think about this? I don't think an Assault remaster would be the way to go but frankly I don't have a better idea. What would you want in an Assault remake, and do you think it'd be a good way to get Star Fox out of it's ten year slump?

It would certainly be nice to see something other than Star Fox 64 get the remaster treatment, but I sincerely doubt something like an Assault remaster would ever come to fruition. I'm not convinced that Nintendo is convinced that the demand for a Star Fox game is there, let alone a remake of one from nearly twenty years ago.

Assault was entertaining, but it's not especially memorable or well put together IMO, and its on-foot sections were derided by critics at the time.

Hmm, what you've said at the bottom is interesting. I missed out on seeing that, I'm still very new to the Star Fox scene (I didn't even know Zero existed when it came out, but maybe that's just the UK Nintendo marketing devision being awful).

I should give Assault another try, but my GameCube has some weird esoteric issue where it'll not register the analogue trigger - so trying to use the blaster is a fools errand, it just does a charge shot.

You might try another controller, or cleaning your controller. The triggers are definitely weird on the Gamecube.

I'll have to give it a try, I did get some cheap no-name one off of eBay. Have took it apart before and testing them, they did work great
