Retro_Link Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 But that justification. This game should handle like Strike Vector, and the online multiplayer play like it.
Josh64 Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 "Why do they have to complicate things?"... I could be wrong but from what I've read in interviews, this seems like Miyamoto's thing lately. As soon as I heard he was adamant about the second screen being integral to the experience I was worried.
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Yep, two posts above nail what the fans want. So simple. Why do they have to try and complicate things sometimes?! Fuck 2 screen Star Fox gameplay!!! It sounds shit, by all accounts it doesn't play well, and rumours the developers are struggling with it. There's NOTHING about it that gives reason to use it! Just an example of how Nintendo's hardware gimmicks are actually fucking up their own games. Its incredible. All we ever really needed was a HD Starfox 64 with an online mode... That's all.
Fierce_LiNk Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 I'm not excited for this in the slightest. It's rapidly dropping off the radar and the only real reason I'm even holding out the tiniest bit of hope is because of the Star Fox name attached to it.
Hero-of-Time Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 First4Figures are starting a Star Fox line of models and the first one looks amazing! http://www.first4figures.com/component/option,com_myphp/Itemid,3/product,159
killthenet Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 That looks great. I remember really wanting Star Fox toys in the mid-90's, I was a bit too young to properly appreciated the game but my brother had 'Star Wing' on the SNES and I thought it was great. I always wanted there to be toys and vehicles, so you could take Fox and co out and play with them, shame we'll never get a proper line of toys like that.
Hero-of-Time Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 Another delay rumour seems to be doing the rounds. [tweet]704761725233569792[/tweet]
Guy Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 If they're still considering delaying it, it must still be pretty janky. Just take the time needed and fix it, I don't care when it comes out as long as it doesn't suck.
dazzybee Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 Seriously... Delay it, release it on the NX. The Wii U is dead. Long live the Wii U.
Serebii Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 We have two big Wii U retail titles this month, so a small delay would be fine It's a shame that StarFox may be well and truly screwed
Ashley Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 It's a shame that StarFox may be well and truly screwed It's seen worse.
Dcubed Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 I like how everyone is assuming that this is real and that all these rumours must be true... That being said, I wouldn't be upset if they did delay it again. I don't care when it launches, just how good it ends up being!
Serebii Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 It's seen worse. I liked Adventures. It's Command which is ass.

Almost as if long time fans of Nintendo are used to extensive and sequential delays...
Dcubed Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 Almost as if long time fans of Nintendo are used to extensive and sequential delays... At least they should be by now :p I liked Adventures. It's Command which is ass. Someone's opinion is clearly stuck in Hero Mode, because that's all backwards
Ronnie Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 Seems like every big game gets delayed these days, on every console
Retro_Link Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 ^ classic. Yeah I also really enjoyed StarFox Adventures at the time! Even the Arwing parts. I always thought it would have been pretty cool to give Fox his blaster and make it more Jet Force Gemini in terms of gameplay than Zelda, but hey ho. When I see video's of it now though it's unbelievable how linear it is!! given the likes of Banjo Kazooie/Tooie/DK/Conker that came before it. The most frustrating thing about this game isn't the delays, which I'm all for if it makes it a better game, it's that it just looks like another reskinned StarFox game... albeit with questionable gamepad sections. I don't think any number of delays are going to fix the fundamental gameplay choices they've made. *shakes angry fist*

(E3 I think?) I think they must know peoples criticisms of the game, and that it was not quite working before. It just remains to be seen if they have a new direction that is worthy.
Retro_Link Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 (edited) @peterl0 Thing is, the latest trailer they put out heavily showed off the gameplay functionality, otherwise I'd be inclined to think the delays were for some drastic change. Urgh, Nintendo... you really are baffling. Your games don't need gimmicks!! Edited March 2, 2016 by Retro_Link

Urgh, Nintendo... you really are baffling. Your games don't need gimmicks!! Wrong link? I think I know the trailer you mean - from November. That trailer did have a reasonable amount of focus on the gamepad controls, but also it really did not show anything from the game we had not seen before. Therefore I was thinking it might have been created by a marketing team, not the dev team. I personally don't have an issue with the controls as long as they don't get in the way, and there is a great game underneath. From the impressions of people who played the game it seems like it is above average or good (not great/epic) from a gameplay perspective and the controls do get in the way.

No it was the right link :p I was just referencing Miyamoto's input. Yeah I've heard the gameplay is actually a lot of fun, it's just not necessarily what you'd want from the StarFox franchise.
Dcubed Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 (edited) Whelp! That latest rumour has been put to rest now. They're not gonna go ahead and plan a delay on the day after the last ND before its publically announced release date. If they were going to do any planning for it, it would've been done beforehand and the ND video would've been edited accordingly. Guess it was bunk (and so, the others are probably bunk too :p ) Edited March 2, 2016 by Dcubed

They will delay Zero and finally give us Starwing on the VC as an apology. I wouldn't even be mad.
