      Much as I don’t want to give money to Nintendo, I will if they release a game I absolutely must play AND haven’t raised the price of the console by then. I suspect both things won’t happen at the same time.

      EDIT: Price increase announced the very next day, what timing! It’s not until Sept. 1st, but unless they have a surprise announcement there won’t be anything compelling me to get one before then.

        I want a NEW traditional LoZ with dungeons and an actual progression path. I want a Pokemon game that plays like a Pokemon game and doesn’t run like dog water. I want a new IP that takes a risk and does something interesting that ISN’T a multiplayer focused shitfest on Nintendo’s anemic online service. AND GIVE ME A NEW MARIO MAKER, GODDAMNIT.

    Most of the graphical changes seem… fine I guess. The characters faceplant right into the weird hyperrealistic uncanny valley tho.

    I’m not sure them mentioning more dialogue and cutscenes makes me particularly excited. Seeing what they’ve changed and added in the trailer doesn’t inspire confidence, it feels like those joke AAA gaming tutorial things where they state the obvious in a hyper positive cheesy voice and maybe I’m just picky because its different, but here we are.

    The multiplayer looks sort of neat, too bad I’d have to buy a switch 2, pay for Nintendo online, and suffer on Nintendo’s shitty servers to use it.

    I’ll probably just stick to the recomp. My favorite part of the game is the gameplay, and that looks completely unchanged.

      Yeah, I’m not thrilled. Anthro animals with hyperrealistic human proportions give me the jibblies. Reminds me of this old (meme?)

      On one hand I’m glad they didn’t go with the overdone cutesy Disney style for the animals, but yeah Fox especially looks off in the kinda realistic style. He looks more like Fantastic Mr. Fox now.

    Gameplay looks fine, but I’m not buying a switch 2 to play.

    What’s up with Fox’s appearance tho? He looks like he’s cone out of retirement being overweight. Remaster doesn’t mean you have to have realistic visuals that alter from the style of the original.

      I actually really like the new style. It has been divisive though.

      Check out the OG Star Fox boxart on SNES, it’ll look familiar. Both US and Japanese versions.

    Cool I guess. Nintendo doesn’t seem to know what to do with the franchise. They’ve remade SF64 twice now.

    Am I the only one bothered by the fact Fox’s ears stick out of his helmet? I certainly wouldn’t wear headgear that left the most fragile and sticky-outy parts of my head exposed.

      Yeah, I know. When seeing this post, I thought it was about the HarbourMasters PC port, which I’d rather play than this because at least the PC port isn’t $70.

    I have wanted a new Starfox game for so long. I wanted to be excited about this, but why are they remaking it AGAIN?!? 4 of the 7 Starfox games are the same fucking game! When people said they wanted a new Starfox game they meant they wanted a NEW Starfox game. If they wanted to do just a visual upgrade they could have just tweaked Zero and released it on Switch. I mean hell at least that game had new content. The franchise has so much potential and its so frustrating to see Nintendo be completely unable to innovate on this series. Fucking Namco managed to do a decent job for fucks sake. This is the only franchise of theirs that they are just completely incapable of creating something new for and its honestly baffling.
