“Star Fox” Announced for Switch 2
In a surprise-release, Nintendo just announced a new Star Fox game for the Switch 2 based around Star Fox 64 with updated visuals. I literally just found out and haven't had a chance to research this, so I'm posting this now and will update you as I learn more. For now, you can watch the livestream (which just finished) above.

They’re gonna remake 64 until the end of time, aren’t they?
Well, that, was an unexpected surprise. They’re finally making another Star Fox game after 10 long years in development ever since Zero was released. But to be honest, it’s just repeating the same story from 64 all over again, just like with 64 3D for 3DS and almost like they did with Zero. And I’m not fully sure what to say about the new appearance designs of the characters. If I had to pick only one of the 2 choices that I’m giving for which appearance design I like better, it would be the “Mario Galaxy Movie” Fox McCloud over this games designs. At least Illumination Studios’s designs are close enough to the Fox McCloud that we all know, and their depiction of Falco, Slippy and Peppy are spot on (despite only showing it for a few seconds). The mouse joy-con aim system feels similar to that of Star Fox Zero. I hope that they’re not going to do a similar process like how they changed Donkey Kong’s appearance and it will only be for this 1 game here, for this one time only. By the way, I saw how Katt looks like and she doesn’t look pink (I think), and Falco has real bird legs, which I don’t see them working out for the Smash Bros. series at all. I’m not trying to be hurtful or offensive or anything, I’m just giving my honest opinion. BTW, that new mario film was pretty awesome, but spoiler alert: I don’t think Peach and Rosalina are really sisters in the mario game series, that’s only in this movie.
Sorry, forgot to say that the character designs remind me a little bit of some of the designs from the Event Horizon fan game, and sorry if last post is too long.
great graphics and features, but fox and falco’s head is smaller compare to their bodies.
This is horrible. They kill the our Star Fox …
Oh heck yeah, who’s ‘excited’ for another $#%@ing remake of the first game with what has to be the ugliest designs for the characters I have ever seen. This will definitely get Switch 2 sales skyrocketing.
What’s the definition of insanity again?
Finally, a new Star Fox!… But once again, it’s another game in the style of Star Fox 64… It’s honestly depressing.
It’s becoming extremely difficult emotionally to be a Krystal fan
I actually like the character designs. Fox looks more animalistic. His fangs are a lot more noticeable too which I like. Too bad Krystal isn’t in it, I would love to see how she’d look. If they were going to remake anything I wished I’d of been Assault or Dinosaur Planet. 64 has been done so much it almost a waste to be honest. There’s no chance I’ll be a switch for it, that’s for sure.
