Shigeru Miyamoto has explained that the leaked Star Fox Wii U has been in development at Nintendo headquarters for quite some time. The game was originally developed for Wii, but they decided to bring the game to Nintendo’s latest home console, Wii U. The reason they decided on Wii U was because Miyamoto believed that the project worked best using the GamePad.
We originally began working with Star Fox back on Wii, and we had a small group of people experimenting with it for many years, maybe about six years, but we didn’t find an idea that really brought that together for the Wii. So instead we moved experimentation to the Wii U using some of the same assets. It’s been maybe 6 to 10 months that we’ve been experimenting with it.
I feel bad for Miyamoto though. I bet he wanted to keep this as a secret until the Digital Event.
Nintendo already win this E3 by default. CALLED IT!!!!!!!!!
Starfox and Zelda. Definitely. Without a doubt. Now if that Metroid 3DS thing is real, MAN OH MAN.
Could also be an intentional leak.
Idk man. Somehting this big should not be an intentional leak.
*something
I agree, but Nintendo is trying new things to generate Hype. I don’t think something this big was done accidentally either. Both sound logic, we’ll never know, BUT!!!!!! We’re getting STARFOX U!!!!!
Starfox, Zelda, Potential Metroid and maybe 2 other secret games plus all known games to come…
All of these eclipses everything the Xbots and Sonyans showed yesterday combined…
yeahhh nintendomination, couldn’t resist
I feelz happy now
Yeah I see what you mean. Previous Nintendo games were big but were never leaked. I’m just looking forward to what else is in store!
But then again it was TIME’s fault so who knows.
It got everyone talking and I bet a lot more people will tune in now after reading info flying around on the internet saying NEW STARFOX leaked, official announcement in less than an hour!! lol, who knows, but it is an awesome day!
Good point.
From Time magazine and then they shut it down ? I don’t think so.
Well shit happens
Yep, just happened for me 2 min ago as well.
Biggest shit of my life..
HOLD STILL AND LET ME LOVE YOU MIYAMOTO!!!
OOOOOOOH!!!
They held back from us?! Well, I guess they did it with Pikmin 3 as well and it ended up being a great game.
SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIIIT
Miyamoto saved the Wii U!!!!
Oh my MTF. Its this real. Nintendo can won E3 with this….
AND Zelda. And a new Smash Bros character and potentially a few other games *HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE *
I’m happy, but at the same time this ruins a certain surprise. Sure, video will be better than just three screenshots, but…
Now the haters can keep their mouths shut…
Glad to see Nintendo’s getting back in their game! I hope the three-game exclusivity with me on the Wii U helped out, Commander!
I’m sure they did, I’ll buy Sonic Boom because I like Sonic…
Odd, wordpress didn’t notify me that you replied to my comment.
But thanks for the support, Commander! Sega needs all the help it can get!
Considering it’s one of the few forces out there that still supports us, I’ll gladly support it…
Plus I’ve been involved with your empire ever since the Ancient War…
I had respect for both…
I want to give you a game but you need to buy me first
Haha…
I will buy some of your games be sure of it…
Yes Lord Nintendo , Mega man 11 is coming
No worries, Mega Man! We still have you in Smash Bros and Virtual Console.
*Cries* ATLEAST YOU HAVE NEW GAMES :'(
-hugs- It’s okay, Mega Man. It’s not our fault Capcom cancelled your series. We’ll get you back, I’m sure of it!
Well let’s see if pacman joins the party
This just made my day
Omg *dies*
if it doesn’t have online dog fights with voice chat it really doesn’t matter it’ll be a four hour game and this is coming from someone thats a diehard starfox fan.
I don’t even care what it is. The only Starfox I’ve ever played is Starfox Adventures. And whatever the next one is will most likely be completely different. So either way, it’s a new experience for me. I could get Starfox 64 to see what’s it’s like, but old games really do not work well at all with me. Just like how I download Mario Kart 64 after I played 8. I’m like “Lol. This is what it was like before?”
Dude. Starfox 64 has withstood the test of time. Seriously, do yourself a favor and get it right now on the eShop, or for 3DS. Seriously
Starfox 64 was a truly amazing game!
Yes!!!
Oh shit my heart hurts now oh my god holy fuck fuck fuck…. yeeeeeeeees!!!
Sasowhateverhisnameis butthurt to the extreme confirmed…
Even the Man of Steel’s body is ready.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLOLOLOL

AND IIIIIIIIIIIIEEIIII WILL ALWAYS LOVE MIYAMOTOOOOOOO!!!
I really shouldn’t have checked this site again till after the event. Spoilers suck.
Haha those were my thoughts exactly but hey……..we’re getting Star Fox!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Omg
Miyamoto motherfucker, ruined the surprise of E3!!
TIME ruined the surprise. Not Miyamoto.
That’s what happens when you go online looking for Nintendo news.
YES!!! I’ve been waiting SO long for this!!
It kinda looks like the 3DS remake’s take on the series, does that mean Krystal won’t be in it? :(
I really hope she’s still apart of the team!!
That’s not the real game.
What?
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!! I hope krystals in it and includes a better version of assults ground missions
They wouldn’t cut her from the team would they?? :(
That doesn’t seem like something Nintendo would do
Maybe this will get me into Star Fox.
HOLY YES
I’m really hoping this isn’t a remake of 64…because it looks like it is.
If Nintendo thinks of saving the Wii U with a game that people played two decaudes ago, and have already replayed 3 years ago…then damn.
New game, and something about a helicopter in it…..
I think thats just image to be a image
I can’t wait any longer!
Someone press forward!

I want the game to look like sf64 but in hd…. starfox 64 2 with 4 player co op with live cam feeds of your friends/team and 4v4 team battles…… this is really how Star Fox should be in this day and age
Now N Runs It. You know Nintendo wasn’t smart enough to think that for Starfox Development during Wii’s time. That’s why Wii U can’t support 4 GamePads. Nintendo is dumb like that. Nintendo waits for complaints on Miiverse toake changes years later. Then by the time the years pass by, new technology arrives and they are just making changes you asked for 6 years ago.
Just like Pikmin 3 and we all know how amazing that game turned out, so this Star Fox game is going to be fantastic! Especially because it has Miyamoto’s magic touch.
Can’t freaking wait.
6 years? Fuck that’s a long dev time.
IKR?! It’s going to be glorious. 6 years of development time is what makes Nintendo games better than EA and Ubisoft games which only get 2-3 years of development time (sometimes less).
Ignoring Ubisoft doesn’t make hardware so its easier for them to make software faster. They don’t have to buy new technology from IBM every 4 years to develop new hardware and make future and current software tittles.
