Kal Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Ooh, I like the new Arwing/Firefox design. Falco's is still bleh. Is that...Krystal's ship? The blue one above the Firefox? It's not the Bullfrog (that's near the bottom), and it's the only other one with the team colors, so.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONE_HELLCAT Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 FireFox? Which ship's the FireFox? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sol-Ratcht Saporro Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 HOLY BOWEL MOVEMENT BATMAN! I love the colors.......Green, Green, Green...... EDIT: Never mind. Falco's ship is awkward.....The one on the bottom is fugly.....The other two are normal (I guess) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kal Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 It's the box art. Very nice. And 1HC...Firefox = Fox's ship. The only one that really looks like an Arwing. Actually, I just noticed: if that is Krystal's ship, it looks like she's flying it backwards... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONE_HELLCAT Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 That cannot be Krystal's ship. It has to be someone elses. Also, by the way the G-diffusers look on it it looks like it's a vertical flying wing or something. All I know is it's the ugliest planes/spacecrafts I've seen and this is coming from a guy that calls the Blohm & Voss BV141 and the [insert ugliest plane you've ever seen here] beautiful.

Kal Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Either that, or she's in the little pod to the right. I think that's the Sky Bunny, though. And it does have the SF logo on the side. Krystal's is the only one that hasn't been officially released yet. Ergo... :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONE_HELLCAT Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Well I heard that Krystal's looks different, like color wise. Also, that's not the SkyBunny, but most likely the CatsPaw considering how similar it is to that one in the background of the picture of Falco's arwing from Famitsu. I think Krystal will play such a huge role later in the game that they wouldn't show her ship on the cover yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PhazonFox Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I'm pretty sure that's Krystal's ship in the top left. Notice how the shape of each new Arwing depicts the character flying it: Falco's has feathery looking wings, Slippy's is short and fat, etc. Now, take a careful look at the top-left ship. The cockpit sticks directly out of the body, and the wingspan is very triangular. It's very reminiscent of Kyte, the pterodactyl Krystal befriended on Sauria, don't you think?

Kal Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Hm, never thought of that. Good point. It still looks like crap, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, sadly, that's a good point. I was just hoping for something better looking. I guess I can learn to love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PhazonFox Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I like the flying wing shape, but I guess this does look a little funny. The g-diffusers made me think of those big pontoons on a seaplane. XP It's kind of at an awkward angle, though. We're looking at the underside of the ship. Hopefully we'll get some better shots of it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Daz-fighter Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Wow! box art and logo good'ness! To be honest I was having doubts that Nintendo would keep to their August release date but seeing as they have the final box art now has made be believe! The logo looks better than I imagined, and the box art looks awesome! August is too far away... Awesome find guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kal Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I think Phazon's hit it with why it looks...bleh. For one, a flying wing is good, but the flying triangle works usually if the obtuse angle is going forward. For two, hers is the only one with solid G-diffusers. The others all have ones that are V-shaped; Krystal's is solid. If they kept the shape but split it, that alone would make it look a lot better. ...Bah, not like they're gonna change it anyways, if that's the official boxart.

Blaz3 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I agree Kal. I do like the idea that everybody has their own custom arwing, but Falco's is really ugly. the Firefox looks similar to the Assault Arwing. Finally, (I can't remember what else I was going to say) OMG TEH WIFI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait. Look at the similarities: SFAssault logo Couldn't find the right size of the Assault logo with a white background and this was the closest I could find, now here's the Command logo again (The actual logo for Command has lines throughout the letters that are the same as the assault lettering, but you all know that already right?) See? it does look the same!!! Adding to my little conspiracies, have any of you noticed that on Fox' left in the pic, on the flat area next to him outside the cockpit, there's what looks like the nintendo sign??? Isn't that wierd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludvig11 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I think they mades it to relevence to the unrealsed Starfox2, with the different-ship thing, maybe, but.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sol-Ratcht Saporro Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 ^It's like the revived version of the unreleased SF 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONE_HELLCAT Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Well Miyamoto did say he was working on a game similar to LylatWars (star Fox 64) that was originally for the Super Famicom (SNES) (SF2 anyone?) So it makes sense that it has SF2 elements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SabreMc Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 *enters forum, avoiding anything that may potentially cause cranial injury, or for those that don't understand this, not hitting anything that will make my head hurt* Why do the ships have to look so ugly? Is Nintendo making fun of us? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and Krystal's Arwing is perfection compared to some of the designs i've come up with(and better than that compared to the renders) Adding to my little conspiracies, have any of you noticed that on Fox' left in the pic, on the flat area next to him outside the cockpit, there's what looks like the nintendo sign??? Isn't that wierd? I noticed that too, maybe this is Nintendo's way of saying that they will not be pasisng the franchise to yet another company *is hopeful*. but then again, it was mentioned on another forum that maybe Retro Studios could make a good SF game.
