ultimex64 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I came up with this idea not to long ago that the Starfox series has been "abused." I will list some reasons why I think and support this. Just remember, I myself still love the Starfox series and thankful that it exists. Starfox is revolutionary for having "3D graphics" thanks to the Super FX chip at the time. As we all know this started out the famous franchise. Nothing wrong yet. Now we are waiting for the release of Starfox 2, until all of a sudden it's now canceled. Why? Even Nintendo said that it will have better graphics thanks to an improved version of the Super FX chip. If Starfox 2 would have just come out we wouldn't have a franchise that would soon be screwed up. Now Nintendo has announced Starfox 64/Lylat Wars, so now we are waiting for that to come out for the now known N64. This is the real gem of the series and a lot of people are loving it. Now Nintendo announce something that would change the gaming industy forever, the Rumble Pak. But since Starfox 64 is a reboot, Starfox 2 was lost and the original faded from being official. Starfox could've been an entirely different game with the same on-rails shooting and all range mode. Plus it would've been just as good, if not better, and been released approx. 1.5 years after Starfox 2. This would leave the series open for Nintendo to continue making made by only first(and or second, preferrably first) partie(s). this would really save the series and made it better. Unfotunately it didn't go that way, in 2003 the series was detached from it's roots and "planted" into Hyrule so to speak. But this was the second most popular game in the series due to the awesome graphics, story, and Krystal coming into the story. Fans weren't very disappointed with the game, altghough they wanted one similar to 64. So, in 2005 the series returned to its roots. Starfox Assault was it's name and was the worst game. Sure the story and music were great, but the story was short. Starfox fans were happy when Command was announced. It's the second worst game in the series according to reviews. Although, the local wireless connectivity was a first.Starfox 64, the gem of the series, got a 2007 virtual console release. I not trying to say I don't like the series, make it sound horrible, or offend anybody. The Starfox series could've had more games and a better set up. I mean the G-Zero series was mainly managed by 3rd parties and it got more games then Starfox. The Legend of Zelda has 14 games with a 15th coming out plus it has more remakes and spinoffs. I'm not even going to start out about Pokemon and Mario. I really think the Starfox series was abused. The last thing we need is for it to be shut down. But things turned out the way they did and we can't change them. Remember, this is my opinon supported by facts. Your opinion may be entirely different. Discuss it with us and don't forget to vote on whether you agree or not. I'm sure glad anything of Starfox exists. Sorry for the short post earlier, my computer did something stupid.

Milkyway64 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 We've been very long overdue for some real Starfox games. This has been discussed to death by fans of the new and old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
