Star Fox Zero Review by Hag
Out Now for Wii U (PEGI 7) Hag 3.5 Stars/ Con “TOP END” 5 Stars
Parent View:
Star Fox is back after many years away saving the galaxy – and there’s not just one, but two releases for fans. ‘Guard’ is set in the world of Stars Fox – but very different to the normal games and more inline with classic Nintendo Wii U ‘chase and catch ‘games. Its really easy to play and loads of fun.
Zero is classic style Star Fox with modern graphics and loads of new ways to play using the Wii U gamepad and Amiibo’s. Much like the original Nintendo 64 game (Available now to download from Nintendo eShop) it takes time to master controls but once you’ve mastered them its every inch as fun as the original. Hag and Con find the original ’64’ game a bit hard to play and the new Star Fox Zero appears to be a little easier. Star Fox Zero looks beautiful and although challenging – its very exciting to play and good fun. A must own for Star Fox and Star Wars fans!!!
When Hag and Con talked to Mr Miyamoto and Mr Tezuka about Star Fox Zero for Kidzcoolit and 110% Gaming Magazine!!!
Have you ever come up with an idea for a game that you couldn’t make work and what was it? Con age 8
Mr Tezuka – So there are some games that never came out. Even making Mario – there are so many times we almost didn’t release it. Because it was so much of a struggle to finish it.
Mr Miyamoto – So we always start off by trying to come up with one big game – one whole game. So we start off with, it will be fun if we make a person jump. And then from there it evolves and we starting thinking maybe we can make it fly maybe we can make it swim. So it evolves, it never where you have ‘we’re almost done with the game’ and we can cancel it. Its little bits and you try to make it better and better.
And so we always to start by making something fun – if there’s even a little bit of fun that evolves into a product.
There are sometimes when we come up and we make something that doesn’t go into the world. I don’t want this to turn into any kind of promotion but we have Star Fox Zero that’s coming out.
Hag – Oh yeah we’ve played that.
Con – Yeah I have too!
Mr Miyamoto – You’ve played Star Fox Zero?
Hag – Yeah?
Mr Miyamoto – But you guys probably don’t know about Star Fox 2? We actually made Star Fox 2 – But never released it. That’s what actually turned into Star Fox Zero.
The reason why – we had Star Fox 2 ready for release, but just too many competitors and everything was just too technically advanced. So we just didn’t want to release it anymore. And so we had the walker idea already for Star Fox 2 – and so we’re using that exactly in Star Fox Zero.
