The Zero design is pretty strong, but I imagine the main team will get new suits more appropriate for racing
Do you guys think they're keeping the Zero designs or are we expecting Fox to get yet another redesign?
Snes fox and Wii U fox look best

Man I remember that Twisted Metal Black killer stuff! My head is filling with all these ideas about what a Star Fox racer could mean and now I'm getting worried that it won't live up to my expectations.
Like I want Star Fox to become the next Splatoon. Another shooter for Nintendo but with all these crazy vehicles blasting each other out of orbit. It's what I've wanted since Star Fox 64 as my mind was always fixated on how multiplayer could expand in the future.
I love the on rails and story segments, especially for leader boards and getting all those high scores but multiplayer battles with 8+ people flying around has been my dream since I was in the 6th grade.
With Star Fox Assault and Star Fox 64 3D I always look at those massive arenas and only think what could have been with online and more players. Some of those places are huge and chasing around a few people is so fun but not nearly as fun as it could be with a good dozen or so people all over the place shooting form all angles.
Some games that I dreamed about that were actually realized almost exactly as I envisioned them(or even greater) were Yoshi's Island, Donkey Kong Jungle Beat, Breath of the Wild, Sonic Mania and Mario & Luigi Super Star Saga. There are a few more grand concepts in my head and the one that seems closest at the moment is multiplayer focused Star Fox. And building it in a racing genre may be exactly what I didn't know it needed.
My dream in my head might be too much but Retro has completely surpassed my expectations time and time again so I'll just happily wait and see.
I thought they ran Killer7 dude out of town?
You should stop talkingYes, they were angry at being forced at making ports instead of original titles. Nintendo was rejecting all of their pitches. They haven't released a Nintendo title since Xenoblade Chronicles 3DS in 2015.
No no, let him talk. This is fun.

Its not like these are drastic redesigns.. at first glance they are all very similar with only minor cosmetic changes (apart from perhaps the SNES version being pretty different). Unless I am missing something.The characters being redesigned every game seems to be a running gag in the Star Fox franchise so I'd expect this to follow suit lol
As long as we don't go back to that lameass Command/Brawl/Smash 4 design, I'm good.
Weird to think of the 3 star fox timelines the latest one to get updated was the original, plus 100 percent of its games are good, as opposed to 0 percent, and maybe 50 percent good, depending on if you really like assault, maybe more if you also like adventure's.I hope we see Miyu and Fay get re-canonized now that Star Fox 2 is an officially released game.
I like Assualt, the actual Star fox parts are all solid it's a little short is all. And adventure is solid as a spinoff(and my first Zelda game)... so 75%. I also liked zero, sooooWeird to think of the 3 star fox timelines the latest one to get updated was the original, plus 100 percent of its games are good, as opposed to 0 percent, and maybe 50 percent good, depending on if you really like assault, maybe more if you also like adventure's.

The more I think about this game the more excited I get for the concept. But also the more worried I get that the specific idea in my head (that's rad as hell) isn't going to be what the game is so it probably won't live up to it.

My thoughts are more "They really wouldn't pursue something this weird unless they really knew what they were doing"
Retro has a perfect track record and has a history of resurrecting troubled franchises. Star Fox is near and dear to my heart and I trust they'll make another special game if this turns out to be true.
If we come out of E3 still not knowing what Retro is working on I'm going to lose my shit.
I need to know whether this is real NOW.
I wouldn't count on it being at E3. All rumors point to this being a 2019 title and Nintendo's PR for E3 specifically said that 2019 software will be announced at a later date.
I am hoping this leak will cause Nintendo to change their mind and push the reveal up.
To be fair, Nintendo said "focus on [insert year here]" previously. Now Nintendo went as far as to say that 2019 titles will be featured at a later date. Due to that, I can understand where Skies is coming from.Don't know why people put stock into that, they will lie so they can surprise you, especially for E3.

Oh, you have envisioned Redline in game form, haven't you? But with Starships, huh?Oh I think the game will be great. Probably the best Star Fox game. Retro's never done wrong by me. But will it be the absurdly crazy cinematic action racer I'm envisioning... Some aspects, yes probably will be. But others I wonder if they'll go far enough to match the vision in my head. Hope so!
I don't feel the need to shit on the game at every moment though.
People are really annoying about this game. Makes me roll my eyes into my fucking skull.
Even there, though, "featured" is language that does leave a bit of a possibility, in my eyes.To be fair, Nintendo said "focus on [insert year here]" previously.

Because we're having a great discussion on how Retro will knock this out of the park
Yeah, I'm inclined to agree with Stealth and some others' words on this. It's only assumed a spin-off because it's something different, even though all signs point to that this Retro's vision for the brand going forward.I'm wondering if "spinoff" is just assumed by insiders just because of the change in genre, and not the official stance of Nintendo and Retro. The Star Fox IP seemed dead in the water as an on-rails shooter in our current gaming climate, and space racing would be a natural progression for the IP without sacrificing the core gameplay of the franchise like Star Fox Adventures did.
A recent example of a Nintendo game changing genres is Kid Icarus: Uprising, which certainly is not considered a spinoff by Nintendo or consumers. But if you had heard rumblings of a new Kid Icarus being an on-rails shooter without actually seeing the game, you might have thought otherwise.
? ? ?

I dont see why the title should be changed tbh. The only info we have from reliable sources is that the game is a racing spin-off somewhere in between DKCR and F-Zero. Anything beyond that is certainly still up for debate and mostly the result of wandering imaginations...This is definitely the next main series entry, and probably an evolution of the gameplay. I didn't even think that was up for debate....
Thread title should definitely be changed.
