From zero to hero
Almost from the moment it was revealed, Star Fox Zero has endured the kind of scrutiny that first-party Nintendo releases are rarely subjected to. From Time's botched announcement during E3 2014 to the news that external help was being used and the game would

Guide Unlocking Every Stage in Star Fox Zero
We're not leaving Peppy behind
In many respects Star Fox Zero is a loving tribute and reimagination of Star Fox 64, yet it takes a different approach to unlocking stages. It starts off relatively linear, in a first run-through of the story, and then it's time to play through once again. As you unlock new transformations and vehicles new options...
Guide Getting Started With Star Fox Zero and Mastering the Controls
We also look at the basics of amiibo and co-op
Star Fox Zero is landing on the eShop and in stores, bringing us the first full entry in the series in a number of years. We were big fans in our review, yet the game has been divisive, in part because of its GamePad-centric controls - for our money we think the time required to master the game's...
About The Game
An evil empire has risen and the Lylat system is in danger.

- Take down an intergalactic onslaught of enemy forces.
- Pilot a variety of vehicles in the air and on the ground.

My feels, they feel so feelin good
is this real?
I will check back one year from now!
They better not call it Star Fox for Wii U, that sounds awful.
Naming games in a numerical order or by the console they're on is trending for Nintendo atm apparently. I sure hope they don't continue that for this and Zelda etc...
@xerneas yeah, i remember when the SNES came out and a bunch of titles had the word "Super" in front of it... N64 was the same... Didn't see that on the GameCube (my favorite Nintendo console)... But you are right that it is a Nintendo trend that has gone on for generations.
@piggie_pie Nintendo, now your playing with power, super power. Voila. I remember those adds in the past. I was so blown away as a kid. I so loved my nes
It'd be awesome if they give players the option of a first person, cockpit view and free roaming in space battles instead of everything on rails, though I love the old games
So hyped. Never played a Starfox game I didn't love!
@NickGamerShark "Never played a Starfox game"
gets into battle stance
" I didn't love!"
releases self.
Whatever. Anybody could make an game like StarFox on the PC right now and have people pay for it.
What I noticed from Shots is "Andross Icon is more of an Pirate; instead of an military shield or coat of arms".
Andross is not an Pirate for starters, he was an scientist and was sent away in the far regions of space as punishment of his experiments???
Andross is like god-like being, or an diety of some sorta entity of some sort, in "StarFox Assault" from my opinion. In this game they make him out to be some sorta pirate???
It would make more sense if this game was about StarFoxes father, then himself. Because for this to take place before the original Starfox it would be..
I can't wait to play this Game !!!!!! Star Fox is Back and Better than Ever
OH PRUMUS YES
There's a new Star Fox Zero Trailer
@Banjos_Backpack When you say, "won't allow you to play it" I hope that means you didn't buy it. I think the controls can be mastered in most modes of gameplay, but I don't think there is a "great game in there." In fact, even if the controls were magically fixed, I'd still consider this game to be one of the worst in my Wii U collection.
