>Nintendo would rather bring back the Virtual Boy than make a new Star Fox game

Every business decision is based on profit. This means Virtual boy is considered a better money maker to Nintendo than Sarfox.

I genuinely do not understand why the hell this eludes Miyamoto so consistently. Just make a Star Fox that's a normal fucking video game. And it's even worse now, because the mouse control is the one hardware gimmick that would actually fit this IP. Are these old fucks being stupid about this on purpose?

>>720564150
Didn't f zero also had a fully complete virtual boy canceled at the last minute which might resurface on nso next year?

I'm not really sure how they're able to do that. Like, not even an ashcan product. Maybe Smash counts as active use of the IP.

>Each time it's either a basic remaster or an attempt at using gimmick controls poorly and creating dogshit

I understand people probably aren't as big a fan of Assaults ground segments, but Namco at least made moves to develop the series further and we'll never get anything else more for the series. Resign yourself to indie games carrying the torch but still never getting further because it's a niche within a niche within a niche.
>>
It's time for everyone to admit that Star Fox was never really a "game series" as much as it was just an iconic pair of SNES and N64 games and then a bunch of failed experiments afterwards that the fanbase and probably even Nintendo themselves have disowned.

Starfox honestly has some gameplay expansion potential that was never really realized because they kept introducing gimmick instead of naturally progressing the original formula.

Adventure was a butchered game that was never supposed to be star fox. It was a end of life game for the N64 and Rare's tribute to OoT.
Konami took a MASSIVE shit all over Miyamoto with Assault which is why they will NEVER get to make another good star fox game. I mean holy shit it was funny what they did, the whole first stage was co-developed with Miyamoto...and at the end they fucking blew up all his shit ideas and made there own game with bug enemies lol

Your daily reminder that Assault was seen as a critical and commercial disappointment in its era and that's why Nintendo didn't follow up on it gameplay wise or why they didn't have Namco do it again.

Even Imamura's recently admitted that he was hurt pretty badly by the game's mixed reception in its era, especially since it was the first game he was a producer for.

Is the fanbase of star fox just furries?
There have been so many air flight or space flight games before and since, many of which didn't get sequels, but weirdly they only seem to care about the one with anthropomorphic animals.
Or is it because it's Nintendo's? Like the Nintendo console playerbase will only play Nintendo games or something.

I looked up some gameplay. The space sections remind me more of battlefront 2(005) than star fox. Mainly because of how chaotic it is, fights in SF games feel more organized. Not sure how else to describe it.

Eh it's a mix of both.
There's certain truth in the fact that nintendo players keep themselves on Nintendo hardware mostly and starfox having some furry appeal is another reason too.

From my experiences there's two groups: the people that liked the games specifically for being fun rail-shooter video games (at least for the first couple of games) and then there's the furry fanfiction/shipping crowd that Krystal and the GCN games helped brought in, and funny enough it's the latter that dominates spaces like r/starfox as I suppose the older non-furry crowd have moved on to greener pastures after all of this time.

Pic related is basically the quality content you'll find on the subreddit this mod is so mad that people ship fox x wolf together instead of krystal he went ahead and banned shipping art altogether on the subreddit i'm not kidding
>>
>>720563246
No one is going to pay full price for a 2 hour rail shooter nowadays, and with the variety of environments requiring HD assets, the budget of a Star Fox game has gotta be relatively high for such a niche genre. I think it would take a big shake up to make it work (like how Pikmin evolved from an arcade-like experience to essentially a full adventure game with 4), but that's probably just more time and money than Nintendo is willing to risk on Star Fox of all IP. And I also think part of it is there just doesn't seem to be any developers enthusiastic about making one, other than Miyamoto, and all his attempts have failed.
>>
>>720568348
This. Miyamoto gave it one last shot, everyone hated it, and it basically convinced him to stop being involved in video games at all. Since Zero he's focused way more on movies and theme parks and sometimes stepping in to make Pikmin

I honestly pity hollow husks like yourself my dude. You can swap the character models for generic humans and the game still plays the exact same.

It's always worth pointing out that Takaya Imamura was probably the most important person to the series besides Miyamoto, being the guy who created the Star Fox cast and universe and he was even the one who got SF64 off the ground when the higher ups at Nintendo weren't even interested in it, and he already bailed from Nintendo back in 2021. That was always a grim prospect for any major Star Fox or F-Zero game being in development at that point, outside of minor downloadable NSO stuff like F-Zero 99 I guess.

I have to imagine the mid-2000s game made them wary about that.

https://ew.com/article/2007/05/08/man-who-made-mario-super/

>n the past we’ve worked with some outside development houses on titles like F-Zero and Starfox — and let me just say that we were disappointed with the results. Consumers got very excited about the idea of those games, but the games themselves did not deliver.

https://www.ign.com/articles/2013/06/20/dont-get-your-hopes-up-for-f-zero

>Obviously in the past we’ve tried to work with other companies, where we’ve let them develop games for us in franchises like Star Fox and F-Zero, but the more we think about it, the more we prefer to be able to create those games internally, on our own. We’ve obviously, as I mentioned, been working on what we can do to increase our internal staff in a way that will allow us to have more projects going at the same time, so we can create new games and work on additional old IP and still maintain the other primary franchises that people want to see."

Kinda the same reason Zero also didn't do well either funny enough: it was a botched attempt at trying to recreate the magic of SF64 released in the tail end of Nintendo's least successful home consoles.

I expected a normal video game with sensible controls. All that marketing, and it was all for nothing because you just HAD to force the stupid hardware gimmick. Star Fox's continued failures are purely Nintendo's own damn fault.
>>
With all the debacle about Nintendo not seeing the profit in it, whilst this argument doesn't work for F-Zero which hasn't seen a proper release in years, we've seen when an IP has a rocky entry sales wise at Nintendo, they shelve a series for awhile.

Metroid basically went on ice for 5+ years when Other M sucked, by a third party studio.

Same thing with Star Fox Command coming a year after Assault, failing hard then going on ice till the 3ds revitalized interest, except that was for the remaster craze. It wasn't until 5 years later they gave it to Platinum, but this was during the failure of the Wii U, so Zero was stuck with poor forced design and just 64 again.

It's not only a case of seeing something as more profitable, but Nintendo struggling to know what to do with Star Fox and struggling to see success with 3rd parties, constantly shelving the series for 5+ years till they decide to bring it back.

If it succeeds, the series is back and active. If it fails, the series goes back into isolation.

These decisions mixed with the lack of interest in younger developers and a heavy focus on their aging creatives and mega legacy franchises leads to older niche franchises dying out.

>Same thing with Star Fox Command coming a year after Assault, failing hard then going on ice till the 3ds revitalized interest,
Nice try. Command was greenest before assault was released and it was made to be the final game in the series at that time. Command was also very cheap to make so it didn't have to sell a lot to break even. Command's low sales didn't reflect the series being forced into hiatus. If anything assault flopped hard since if it performed better or Nintendo saw potential it could have easily gotten a wii controls port or at least ee wouldn't have had a decade hiatus for home console releases.

That's because those hopes were for projects after Star Fox 64 3D had released.

Also the multiplayer of it was pretty fun with the new items you could use. It's a shame they didn't develop it more and patch in online play. I think there's potential in it like how Kid Icarus Uprising did it.

>it's been over nine years since zero came out

If you want an idea of how badly Zero failed, think about this: In the nine years after SF64 came out, the series basically had its entire chronological storyline consisting of three story sequels (and a Japan only manga interlude set between 64 and Adventures) with Command kinda sorta acting as the end point for it. Meanwhile in the nine years since Zero came out, the closest it got to a follow up was...a crossover with a Ubisoft game no one played. And even that's like seven years old at this point.

starfox should offer more than rail-shooting. they are fun but they should add more into it to make the game worth its price. customizable arwings, have planets being revisited to either play the same mission or other missions and challenges. have side missions when traveling from planet to planet. make planets be under attack at certain moments to either go fight it or deploy other troops to either let them handle it or get to it before its finished

Would you prefer a modern starfox to be on rails or a more freeform arcade flight game? Structured missions or open world adventure?

Reminder that any Star Fox "fans" advocating for, "Just do more on-rails levels" are going to be sorely disappointed when the series gets its eventual return, because Nintendo is all about dropping their characters into sandbox adventures across the board now. Star Fox is probably one of THE most appropriate IPs they have for doing intergalactic, massive exploration games, and frankly the best direction the series can go in is to return the team to their roots of being mercenaries. You can have your on-rails segments as you fly from planet to planet, but they're going to make you get out of the cockpit for Assault/Adventures style missions.

Broad assumptions you make. I played it with friends in the mid 2000s and had everything unlocked via a friend's memory card including the jetpack and wolfen.

how hard is it to make a competent rail shooter with optional objectives, branching paths, semi-procedural teammate chatter, and the occasional "All Range Mode" mission for boss battles and whatnot?

Ace combat is 3/4ths of the way there it just doesn't have rail shooter stages

hard enough that assault was the closest they came, and it had two and a half rail shooter stages across ten levels. Wow.

Dude. Nintendo games barely scratch AAA budgets. Only one that recently has was TotK. Majority of Nintendo's stuff is AA while your example is probably more an A than anything. Drag X Drive probably made it's money back in less than 10,000 copies. If Nintendo did the same with SF and went in on making it a budget series, SF would be perfectly fine.

Psuedo open world planets where you can hop out of the ship, rail shooter stages to travel between them.

>>720577321
Because Nintendo themselves have said TotK was the first game of theirs to go over the $100 million mark. Pretty easy to infer from that most of their budgets are in the AA range for their big titles while smaller titles, think like Pushmo or Dillion's Rolling Western, are in the hundred thousand to single digit million.

Adventures is a zelda clone. I don't want BOTW star fox edition, even if BOTW has some of those elements I mentioned.

Because Donkey Kong draws dimes and was a project pushed forward by Koizumi even if he didn't get credited and the guy has a sentimental attachment to DK (EPD Tokyo's first game was Jungle Beat)
Nintendo doesn't throw darts or draw names from a hat to decide which IP to bring back and there's even speculation EPD got reorganized since they outright said they make it so there's a pipeline for both 2D and 3D Mario and Donkey Kong games

Absolutely but thats all hindsight. Also not having Namco work on it too would have helped too. Sega was the better pick since at the time they recently made panzer dragon orta. Speaking of which it got 2 games remade since the last star fox release. Panzer Dragoon is more alive than star fox. Bubsy is more alive than star fox. F-Zero is more alive than star fox. The fucking virtual boy is more alive than star fox. Just give up and move onto different things.

You ain't wrong, anon. It's almost poetic how Star Fox, the franchise that once sold itself on being the cutting-edge tech showcase for Nintendo hardware, is now deader than formats nobody asked to see again. Panzer Dragoon getting attention while Fox and the boys rot in the Lylat equivalent of a retirement home hurts. It's like Nintendo’s strategy was, "Hey, let’s remake 64 four more times and call it innovation!" At this point, honestly, I'd take a Star Fox-themed Sega crossover just to see the Arwing fly again-even if it's just DLC in some random Valkyria Chronicles spinoff.

They could at least port the older games or put them on nso so a new audience can find them. Nintendo is so stingy with that shit
>>
>>720587269
To be fair, Star Fox SNES and Star Fox 64 were amongst the very first games added to their respective NSO platforms, and Star Fox 2 was amongst the first additions to the SNES platform post-launch. But it is pretty funny and sad that Adventures and Assault are nowhere to be found despite GCN NSO being a thing, and who knows when or even if they'll be added (we're FOUR years into the N64 app and we still don't have DK64 and Smash Bros. for crying out loud).

They should make a starfox rail-shooter like 64 but with a bigger plot and 40 hour campaign. That would be PERFECT.

Why would your want another Star Fox? It's almost been 10 years since the last remake, which means modern audiences have forgotten the established narrative, which means Nintendo would have to remake Star Fox 1 for the umpteenth time.

>>
>>720590621
People talk and whine about it all the time, and tbf they've only rebooted twice and the second one made sense because the series' storyline up to that point had ran its course and its own creator wanted to include the narrative on Command and its multiple endings as shown by >>720574317, not to mention by the time Zero began development it had been like 10 years since those games out.

Dude, they kill off Metroid fangames, even. Only the ones made in secret ever make it. I bet you could make and release a straight up Star Fox game for sale, and not only would they not sue you, they wouldn't even notice. The IP is functionally public domain at this point.

True but also nintendo really doesn't know what to do with star fox outside of yet another 64 remaster.
A whole new set of antagonists, protags, side characters and game objectives are needed since they can't just reuse andross and the lylat war without it just being very derivative.

I think Star Fox Assault will be on NSO sooner than later. And you can play multiplayer online with game chat.
>>
You know why Star Fox and F-Zero are dead? Because Nintendo can't just make sequels that are similar to the past game. Every single Star Fox game they had to be all HERES HOW WE CHANGED/FUCKED UP THE CONTROLS THIS TIME! And with F-Zero they reached as far as they can go with that and can't figure out how to do anything different.

The exception is New Super Mario Bros where they could do 20 of those and it's the same game every time. Weird, innit?
>>
>>720594042
They make an exception for mario since its their flagship IP and have to push out at least 1 mario title per console. So even if they have no new ideas they just have to make one.

64 is what really killed this series. And not because it was bad, but rather the opposite. It was too good. And as a result, the franchise peaked too early. And because of that, there will never be another Stsr Fox game that wont be compared endlessly to 64.
>>
>>720597026
Metroid also peaked super early, but Nintendo still makes stuff for it.

SNES had an adult tone to it, your wingmates could die, the atmosphere felt tense, like you were a assigned a suicide mission to venom. 64 was made more younger audience friendly and most people don't see that. Wish we went back to those roots.

>>720597786
see, this always felt to me like one of the lynchpins for the whole concept - the whole animation style and everything is often compared to gerry amderson's stuff like thunderbirds or captain scarlet but i reckon it goes further - despite the presentation of literal puppets on wires in those shows, there's a serious aura of the characters being in danger and the stakes being high that lends an aura of authenticity to the whole thing, and i'd like to think that was an intentional similarity
we kinda lost that after the fact and i think it's a shame, because i do genuinely think there's a place for a serious but slightly kitschy series with that kind of tone despite the characters being puppet space animals, it's really something that'd stand out imo

Well alright, then why didn't/don't they just find someone who is willing to head the development of the game? I find it difficult that no one in that giant ass company has no interest or ideas for a science fiction, action-centered game (that isn't Metroid), and if there isn't, it shouldn't be hard to find someone who is.

I thought game studios brainstormed ideas and shit. Just gather people up and throw some ideas around, see if something good pops up.
>>
>>720600042
not any of those anons but i'd guess nintendo being a japanese company is very particular about who gets to head up projects or whatever, so if you're not one of like 30 people at the higher band of the different dev teams or whatever then it's just a non-starter because of a lack of seniority
that's pure speculation on my part though

Maybe Nintendo is too scared to make a game because fans really dont know what they want at this point. Say what you want about franchises like Zelda, Pokémon, or Sonic having split fanbases, but at least they still buy the games.

I was hoping for failure consoles sake we'd get a starfox on switch 2...still might happen I guess, but at the rate Nintendo is turning all their Ip's into open world slop it's going to be hilarious watching the fallout from starfox open adventures.
What he and Shitendo actually need to do is use the fucking IP law like it's intended and dish out warrented C&D's to that fucking VA and the insufferable fan bullshit poisoning what little soul remains of this fucking series.

>>720595512

Technically they never made Starfox in the first place. Not a single one, unless we're counting Argonauts upscaled work in 64. Nintendo themselves have maybe they've made a Shiggy's 10% of the series yet somehow botched all of it being ideamen.

>>720611713
Nintendo couldn't save it like they did metroid because they didn't make enough "we're sorry" games in the series to recover one cringe game that destroyed most of what they built. Imagine dread but for Starfox, you'd have Starfox Assault 2 online multiplayer/multiple paths no linear edition. But they won't fucking do it, because that would be it and the fans would be satisfied and then what? Then you put Fox on a motorcycle right? Please don't give them ideas, they already meme this dead series with the other dead racing series and it might actually fucking happen.

Same.

Add branching paths based on who you romance and maybe even some rival drama from Falco or Panther. God tier idea, honestly.

Do people actually want Star Fox or do they just want the characters? Rail shooters you can finish in an hour or less if you don't care about replaying for high scores seem like a really niche genre today, and I don't trust a lot of the fags clamouring for more Star Fox to actually be into that.

Dudes cooked he should step downand and let some fresh blood have a go, shamelessly holding onto his IPs because they are his legacy and letting them fade into obscurity because he doesn't know what to do with them is retarded given how strong Nintendos franchise recognition is.

Star Fox is dead because no one actually give a fuck about rail shooters in the year of our lord 2025, and Star Fox fags are too delusional to realize that and will get mad if Nintendo changed the genre. So, might as well just let it die.

I just think Miyu and Fay were ultimately victims of the fact that Takaya Imamura had very little to do with Star Fox 2, despite being a big guarding force for SF1 and SF64 and future games after that. Another dude at Nintendo, Masanao Arimoto, took over his role as SF2's character/sprite designer and he made Miyu and Fay after cycling through a bunch of concepts for avatars for the Light Arwing class, like the sheep design you posted, there were even humans and robots and shit.

Imamura's only known contribution towards SF2 was doing the initial sketch for Star Wolf which funny enough had Andrew instead of "Algy" like in the final game, which right there shows the change of primary character designer, and obviously when Imamura regained the wheel for SF64 he'd largely stick to his own concepts like re-reverting Algy back into Andrew and making his own cat and dog companion characters.

In a way it also explains why Krystal came in and "took their spot", because interviews reveal that Imamura's essentially the reason she even became a Star Fox character, Rare was initially just going to cut her out entirely in the transition from Dino Planet to SFA but Imamura who was a superviser/producer for the game requested she'd stay and he'd even help provide her final Vampirella redesign, claiming in hindsight that she was the character he felt the most attachment to from SFA's roster. It was also his call to bring her back in Assault, wanting to acknowledge SFA as a valid canon entry and also thinking that she was "enticing" in her own right.

More or less. Apparently Dylan Cuthbert had some hand in giving them names and personalities. Honestly I think Miyu and Fay (both spaniel and sheep) were really decent designs and could easily be worked into Starfox.But It took some time before the 64 era dogshit renders were changed into something good, and honestly Miyu and Fay just didn't work well as 3D renders.

Both Assault and Command did exactly that. But Assault needed more meat on the bone and Command needed to not be total shit, neither of which were true so we're stuck with pseudo-64 remakes forever. And as long as Shiggy Diggy Doo is employed, all future games will have retarded control gimmicks instead of just giving us a good, solid game that plays well.

They probably HAVE and cancelled it. Multiple times. Look at the Prime 4 situation with Namco.

We don't get to peek behind the curtain of game companies but Nintendo and everyone else fund prototypes and start development of games but pull the plug on as many games, if not more, than they publish.

There probably were Starfox games in development during the Switch 1 era.

You know, looking back at SF2 prototypes. They clearly tried experimenting with something like big roaming missions, they had a tighter and much varied design of what eventually became Starfox 2 release. I wish Dylan wasn't such a sore faggot and went back to these and make them with modern tech. It could work.

Correct on Wolf, Fox, and Falco but Krystal hasn't become playable yet (and I don't see that changing unless Sakurai or the next Smash director wants new Star Fox content). So she isn't a smash character yet, at least to me.

Well, of course, no Sin and Punishment game has outsold a Star Fox game. It doesn't help that the first Smash game was on the Nintendo 64, when Nintendo had fewer IPs back then, and Star Fox was at its highest in terms of sales.

Something the series itself seems to downplay all too often is that the Star Fox Team are mercenaries. Sure, our heroes are good guys and have ethical standards, but they're still in it for the money. Emphasizing this in both narrative and gameplay would help a lot, I think.

Sadly, this. The Labo probably gave them a huge profit compared to the last time they released Star Fox on the Wii U. If you present the two next to each other and ask them which one to go with, they'll easily go with something like the Virtual Bo because its easier money.
I'll say this over and over: Nintendo fans need to stand up for themselves. If that Virtual Boy thing fails then they probably won't try something like it again for awhile.

Yes and no. Krystal has quite a lot of backstory and lore but only from the original dinosaur planet build of the game. In star fox adventures Nintendo of Japan removed that and even cerinia from the English version of the game so that's non Canon. Krystal is just a blue fox thing that showed up one day on sauria.
