Robert Monroe Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 So Nintendo uploaded a digital manual for SF2 and it looks great! Character art, concept sketches, even a little backstory for Faye and Miyu! https://www.nintendo.co.jp/clvs/manuals/starfox2/html/USen/index.html 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoprimedonna Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Just took a little at it, and was glad to see what I saw! Overall, the website was pretty organized, and I loved the artwork. Let's hope they keep up the great progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Carson Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 One thing puzzles me, the manual, according to Peppy's speech balloon, is supposed to contain hints on how to get the hidden medals. I couldn't find the hints. Kind of bad when I need a guide for the guide. XD;;; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giladen Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Fay's bio mentioning her as an aristocrat who turned to being a merc has made me sure Fara Phoenix from the Itoh comics was her inspiration. Also, Wolf's bio suggests the 64 Universe's Pigma might have been based on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoprimedonna Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Just been wondering, may be off-topic... Is there any possibility for us to see the Itoh comics republished, or even a fresh, new comic series for Starfox 2? It would really work up the hype even more. Now, the thing I loved the most is that Fox and the gang's design is based off the original games: professional, brave, friendly, relatable. No references to recent trainwreck designs from Platinum, which is a relief for me, as well as many others out there who are still soured by the recent occurences in the series. It makes me hope that Nintendo will make better moves from this moment onward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giladen Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Also, it looks like Star Wolf in 64 were wearing ponchos over flight suits. I'm honestly surprised. I saw them wearing jackets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitsud Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I find it funny how the link directs us to Nintendo's japanese website, but the manual is in english. It'd be kinda neat if they included a printed version with the SNES mini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WolfOD64 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 This manual's a very handy means of securing official terminology for each of the game's Arwing classes. It's a little disappointing that nobody opted to give Miyu or Fay last names. For years, fans have just resorted to calling them "Miyu Lynx" and "Fay Spaniel"...and I was always hoping they'd receive proper last names in accordance to how the other characters have legit surnames like "McCloud" or "Lombardi" or "O'Donnell." (Although in fairness, Peppy and Slippy just have species names for surnames, so it's not completely abnormal...) Those schematic sketches of the Arwing Types are great. I've always loved the idea of the Team using specialized Arwing models for different combat scenarios. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
