Miyamoto Says Star Fox Zero’s Art Style Serves A Purpose And A Lot Of Games Look The Same

We’ve all now got a good look at Star Fox Zero for the Wii U, the brain child of Shigeru Miyamoto in collaboration with Platinum Games. What do you think of the game art style? Because Miyamoto said that the visual style and the gameplay is the main point of the game, and was made of a cartoony nature on purpose. As most games now strive to look super realistic, he thinks they’re all starting to look the same, and presumably wanted Star Fox Zero to stand out that way. Question is, does it stand out for the right reasons or look weaker, as the article suggests?

In a press event Sunday, Miyamoto said that the point of Star Fox Zero is the gameplay and the visual style of the game, which is somewhat cartoony. It was made that way with a purpose. “A lot of games nowadays look so realistic that they all look the same,” Miyamoto said.

The famed designer is right–many casual gamers might have trouble telling the difference between a “Call of Duty” and “Battlefield” game. But Nintendo’s strategy also reflects that the Wii U has far less graphical horsepower than rival home consoles.

    1. It is also true that more realistic graphics usually require more work though, there’s no need to hide that a cartoony art style saves time, in addition to its offering to the uniqueness of the game :)

      1. Guys I have a question- I just purchased Lucas DLC for Smash, but I can find him on the character select screen. Why?

        1. pink0crystal0midbus

          I had that problem as well. I closed the software and reopened it, but the DLC STILL didn’t show up, so I restarted my Wii U entirely and it was there when I opened up the software again.

          Very weird.

      2. im Game dev. i work for years on Environments Artist. and you very wrong my friend. Video game those days are use Photo realistic Texture and Nintendo is Hand Painted textures. That art style is consume less Vram the Handpainted and work very well on wii u. Bud is more work to make. You paint every wall, Blick, mountain, metal, ship with that style. Call of duty or Assassin’s creed there use real texture in the world we live. Bud if you use that depends the pixels of the textures. You consume more ram at the end of the day.

        1. If you won’t I will stand by my point. What Miyamoto is trying to say here is that he feels he should differentiate Star Fox’s artstyle because he views realism as a popular choice by developers. I don’t see a problem in applying realism to games like Star Fox when it is easily able to stand out from the crowd. How many games are there in the industry where you have a fox, bird and rabbit flying planes and shooting stuff up everywhere? Yeah. Miyamoto instead chose an artstyle that, similar to anonymous’s sentiments, doesn’t give me a good vibe. So, to reiterate, I feel that this s innovation simply for the sake of innovation, which as a consequence, didn’t benefit anyone.

          And even if the artstyle one chooses is realistic, doesn’t necessarily mean they will look the same. Look at Uncharted versus Deus Ex. Do they look the same to you? Eh, why bother. Talking to a Nintendo fanboy like you is like talking to a wall

          1. Ridley 4 Smash DLC!

            You have a point there. It is innovation for the sake of it but I can deal with the artstyle if they polish it up a bit from what it currently looks like.

    2. Says the person who’e system is so fucking wake that it can’t producr realistic graphics, and thus why it’s fucking cartoon.

      Nintendo needs to wake up and stop releasing stupid PR

      1. Maybe when retarded excuses for modern gamers like you are purged. The WiiU CAN produce realistic graphics, the 3rd Party companies just don’t want to fucking TRY! They want to take the lazy way out and just make slimmed down PC ports.

      2. You guys need to wake up and boycott batman because of the $39 season pass. You won’t though because you like getting fucked up the ass and you have no other games to play.

            1. Arkham Knight has amazing gameplay and story elements. It’s not just graphics, it has the whole package.

              1. Arkham knight doesn’t have amazing gameplay lol… it’s semi automated and slightly sluggish unless you’re in the batmobile.

        1. You do realize the reason a lot of games have these season passes is to keep the $60 price, don’t you find it weird had the amount of money spent making games these have sky rocketed and yet they are the same price

        2. You say there are no other games to play on the Ps4? What are you delusional?

          So far in 2015 I have played on my Ps4:

          Bloodbourne (masterpiece)
          The Last of Us Remastered (wasnt as good as everyone said)
          Dark Souls 2 (amazing)
          The Witcher 3 (masterpiece)
          Diablo 3 (amazing)

          Games I have played on my Wii U in 2015:

          Splatoon (amazing)

          So you can see the irony to your post right? Boycott Batman all you want, it’s only because you dont own the console to play it on. In two day I will add Arkham Knight to the awsome games under the Ps4.
          Arkham Knight is another masterpiece and I cant wait to get my hands on it.. Maybe oneday you will realize your Nintendo fanboyism is preventing you from enjoying amazing games NOBODY should miss out on…

              1. Just look at all your comments insulting people with layman’s terms. I DO know you, because I’ve read your comments in this blog for quite the time now. Or rather, I have a basic comprehension of your style and mindset

  1. Yeah, just because other games look gritty and dark doesn’t mean you have to keep on going on a different route. EVERYONE knows what Star Fox looks like, realistic or not. And this time, I personally don’t dig the artstyle you guys chose

    1. Remember, this was a Wii game and the game was basically made until he didn’t want to do it because the controls. He felt the Wii U made a different experience and ported it over, but they never updated the graphics. A lot of people say the game looks like Wii graphics and it does. The cartoon shades were to make the game run at 60FPS. Its back to the same argument that the Wii U is weak

            1. No, W101 literally looked like a PS2 game when it was first showed. I hate to use the term “looks like a PS2 game”, but in that case I need to make an exception.

      1. No the people that say that are fucking blind and retarded. And hypocrites since most of them are KH3 fans even though KH3 looks like a fucking PS2 game. The game does not look like a Wii game. I’ve played fucking Wii games for Christ sakes! They don’t look like that! Stop bitching about shit that isn’t there!

        1. It may not look like a wii game to you but it doesn’t look like the visuals are slightly better than what can be done on PS3 neither. When Wii U is slightly more powerful than PS3. The visuals should do that after 2 years with Wii U.

  2. pink0crystal0midbus

    I didn’t think it was the “art style” that was disappointing to people. It was (and still is) the bland look of the game and the overall quality of the graphics.

    Star Fox for Wii U can be cartoony. No one is arguing against that. But, it should be cartoony AND look like a beautiful game with the highest possible resolution in graphics and environments that looks ALIVE. Plus, the enemies look bland.

    The level of detail that people were hoping to see is not there. That’s the problem, not cartoony graphics.

    1. I can say that most enemies in star fox look bland in the series in general. The game is still under development, so most likely they haven’t gotten back to polish the game

      1. pink0crystal0midbus

        They can change that though. Look at Bayonetta 2. That game has INCREDIBLE enemy design and environmental design. Seeing as Platinum is working n Star Fox, I would think that the creativity from the Bayo games would carry over, right?

        Even look at the Wonderful 101. Not the “best” game in terms of fluid gameplay, but it had really awesome character design for sure. The personality of that game is awesome. I want some creative personality in Star Fox too,

  3. I'm a Boss Ass Bitch

    Ok. It doesn’t have to fucking look realistic nor does it have to look fucking crappy as well. Ugh dumb bitch.

          1. I'm a Boss Ass Bitch

            Shut the fuck up bitch. Take yourself and your irrelevant ass comments to planet suck a dick.

    2. You paid hundreds of dollars for a system expected to have graphics better than Wii’s you have the right to voice your opinion. PS4 ownwers know their system ain’t no PC but they expect it to look better than PS3 not the same. TLOU looks better on PS4 than Wii U. So just because Starfox Started on Wii doesnt mean the grqphics has to look like it’s on Wii.

  4. The game is a blatent rush job. They just don’t/didn’t (at the time of announcement) have enough games. I hope that – call me crazy – this game gets delayed and finished properly. What people really want is a game where it’s mostly in ‘All Range Mode’ and you’re free to go where you want or need to. Imagine if you could literally fly to other planets, dog fights on the way.

    1. No, you’re not crazy. I rather prefer they postpone Star Fox 0 release — let’s say — until Q2 2016 and give us a decent product.

  5. Nintendo Tetrarch Quadramus-NX

    >>>I want the game to be faster when flying, it looks way too slow, and harder bosses>>>

    1. It should be a seamleess, open world game as well. It is the minimum they could do for the franchise.

      Generally, Star Fox games are short, easy and way linear.

            >>>They should just focus on making the all-range mode even better and then take that and improve it even more for the next installment>>>

            1. But we are talking about Nintendo… The next Star Fox installment wouldn’t be out for another decade… D:

                              >>>I don’t mind if it doesn’t have realistic graphics on the 3DS, no 2D Metroid has it either, but it’s this damn chibi style that ruins it all, it’s just not Metroid in any way regardless of graphics>>>

              1. yup basicly. It’s just slighly more powerful than a PS3 though. But its a 3 core wii with a Gamepad.

            2. He’s not wrong not a lot of games today try to be realistic in the sense of being cartoonish. The graphics of Star Fox Zero aren’t that bad, we haven’t gotten a Star Fox game in 9 years so you can’t expect a massive leap. Why does everything have to blow you away? Doesn’t it matter more that it’s happening?

              1. Nintendo Tetrarch Quadramus-NX

                >>>Leaving the graphics out of it, it looks too bland and easy, I want more challenge, Starfox 64 had way more challenge and life>>>

                1. “Leaving graphics out of it, it looks to bland.”

                    >>>I know it’s not finished, but it doesn’t look impressive enough for me, gameplay wise>>>

                2. Something I wanted for the new starfox is what blizzard did for star craft 2. You do your mission, after that go to your base, upgrade your stuff, interact with characters. A more long campaign would be nice as well.

                  1. Nintendo Tetrarch Quadramus-NX

                    >>>Sounds like a nice idea, hopefully they start thinking a bit more like that for the NX games>>>

              2. “we haven’t gotten a Star Fox game in 9 years so you can’t expect a massive leap.” do you hear yourself… after 9 years there should be a massive leap.

                1. No there shouldn’t. Not in this age when better graphics has meant making the games more expensive to produce and thus harder for companies to turn a profit. If anything, last gen is where we should’ve stopped trying to push for better graphics and use the tech for other experiences.

                  1. Games more expensive, Wii U games are cheaper than PS4, why is PS4 version of GTA V still in top ten and not Smash bros?

                  2. Nintendo Tetrarch Quadramus-NX

                    >>>That’s why this world is worse and worse each year, they have zero patience, shallowness and not to mention sadistic by nature, but what to expect from such primitive outdated species like humans>>>

                  3. Ridley 4 Smash DLC!

                    I agree with the “last gen is where we should’ve stopped trying to push for better graphics and use the tech for other experiences,” but I disagree with the “no massive leap” part. After Star Fox skipped last gen, the graphics should be better than a Wii game. The fact the 3DS port of Star Fox 64 looks better than Star Fox Zero is kind of sad. And that was just a video without the 3D effect visible. Some, if not all, 3DS games look way better when the 3D effect is turned all the way up.

              3. We should expect a massive leap. There is a massive leap from Wii to PS3 so it should be a noticable difference between Wii and Wii U since project cafe is slightly more powerful than PS3.

              1. When W101, Pikmin 3, 3D World were unveiled on youtube people saw the difference. When Uncharted for PS4 was unveiled, people saw the difference. Yet slightly better graphics than Wii is bad. Then use youtube as bad quality to justify the way this game looks?

                1. I think it’s hard to judge, nevertheless. Each game is a completely different story. But I see your point.

                  And, you know? I think Star Fox 0 is a low budget game, and it chills down my spine. I barely believe there will be any graphic upgrade for Star Fox 0. They will leave it as it is as of today.

                  If I’m correct, this will corroborate my line of though that Nintendo has been disrespecting its core of faithful fans.

            3. I’m fine with cartoony art STYLE. Let’s take LoZ Wind Waker as an example.

              But what I do not accept is a half assed work which compromises the graphics QUALITY, which seems to be the case here in Star Fox 0.

            4. Yeah we paid for a console to have visuals slightly better than PS3 and yet mainly games been looking between Wii and PS3. If its so powerful then it should meet expectations we paying for.

              1. If graphics is your main reason to buy a console, then maybe, possibly you would have been more comfortable purchasing the XB1 or PS4 (if you have not already) and then you would not have this complaint about how sad looking the “graphics” are.

                This is a substantial upgrade from SD to HD for Nintendo and they have done a lot to improve on that and they have done a lot to improve on their IPs they have.

                1. Well lets see. I know wii U is more powerful than Wii and PS3 so why isn’t the graphics like that huh? Also why does Pikmin 3 graphics look better than Pikmin 2. Why does TLOS look better on PS4 than PS3? Should i go on? If I by a Toyota Avalon I don’t exoect it to outperform a Lexus IS, but for $38k i expect it to outperform a Yaris, Corolla, and Camry. So I expect Wii U visuals to out do PS3’s.

                2. Ridley 4 Smash DLC!

                  When jtz puts it that way, why even bother to make the Wii U better than the Wii? It’s wasted power & potential. So in the end, we aren’t complaining about not having better graphics for the sake of better graphics but for the sake of why we bought an upgraded system in the first place. I mean, I would NEVER pay 400 bucks for a PS4 if it was just going to give us nothing but graphics from the PS2 console with the same limitations as a PS2. Fuck that shit since a PS2 costs less than 300 dollars.

                  1. Ridley 4 Smash DLC!

                    Same goes for the Wii U. If I knew Nintendo was going to intentionally gimp some of their games with lesser graphics than what the system is capable of, I never would have spent 300 bucks for it. I would have just waited til I could buy it off the US Nintendo store for 200 bucks as a refurbished console.

                    1. 1. I’m sure you should know all of nintendo games don’t push the stystem from the respected series
                      2. How would you know Nintendo is holding back on the visuals lol
                      3. If miyamoto goes for a certain art style and graphics then you better except it and buy the game or shut up and don’t buy it
                      4. For example when the legend of Zelda was shown a lot of people thought the graphics would be in game or something like that and with a dark atmosphere but come to find out that was done by a 3rd party and was just an example but many people didn’t know that
                      5. Then when Zelda was officially shown people expected and most likely still expect the dark atmosphere and the realistic graphics but people accepted the cell shaded style which may be mixed with a different style and people will buy it anyway because it is the legend of zelda
                      6. You have and or possibly will if you already didnt get that moneys worth of games and enjoyment of said games etc etc and will continue to buy games or noy
                      7. Like I said before the games graphics can be improved since it has 4 months or something like that left and can be shown in a direct in 1 or 2 months and if the graphics improve then they do and if they don’t then they dont
                      7. This was a wii game and we don’t know how much time was actually put into this game and we saw the result but it looks good and can it be improved most likely since pikmin 3 was improved

            5. 1. A lot of bitching going on in the comments lol
              2. The game looks like a modern star fox 64 which may be bad to some people and good to others
              3. Since it is obviously keeping the same art style lol I think there is only so much you can do
              4. The game will obviously improve the way it looks everyone on this site unless if you are ducking retarded Nintendo improve how the game looks we have seen several examples in the past and now
              5. The game still has what 4 to 6 months possibly more until it comes out damn wait for the finished product
              6. Even If The Game looked The same People would still buy the game because the Fans hsvent Had A Star Fox game In years

              1. 1. Yes, we are.
                2. It’s hard to say anything at this point.
                3. ?
                4. The game is supposed to be out in ~4 months. Considering the time to finish the product and to print the discs, do you really believe they have that amount of time to improve the graphics?
                5. For the aforementioned reason in “4”, that will be the final version of the product.
                6. That’s the reason of fanboys are culprits for what Nintendo has been doing recently.

                1. 1) Yes… thats a fact
                  2) Its Stat Fox… what more to be said
                  3) Art style aside… you can always clean up the graphics
                  4) 4 month is a lot of time to still polish the game. Pressing Discs can be fairly done in the last month or so. I feel they do not need to press a lot and work on the digital downloads
                  5) I feel they will improve on it still
                  6) Remember “Fans” are just short for people whose expectations are at a level so high its unreachable even by god(s).

                  1. And besides if we upgraded from Wii to Wii U, we expect graphics to look better than PS3 after 2 years. It is more powerful tuan PS3 right? So why does Splatoons look like shit?

                  2. I hope you’re right they will polish the game. But I convinced that ~4 months are not enough time to do a decent improvement.

                    1. 1. Then You Are stupid LOL im Sure there Are Several Examples Of Games Looking Much better then when first shown when they come out and you must not know Nintendo or any other game developer
                      2. Now how much will it improve idk this is the same situation with pikmin 3 it was a wii game ported over to the wii u and that turned out good
                      3. So wait and see for the final product now for me I will get the game since I barely played the n64 version and to me the game looks good and a lot of people have extremely high expectations from Nintendo and me not so much because if they make something I like then I may get it

                1. Also I don’t care about realistic graphics but after 2 years i exoected visuals to outperform Older wii u tittles. You know like how Banjo Tooie looks better than Kazooie. Where’s the improvment if Wii U is supposed to have some customised GPGPU that no one can decode. Older games looking better than newer games on the same console is unacceptable. Splatoon’s bushes does the same thing the trees on Super Mario 64 does for goodness sakes.

              2. So let me get this right, kniwing the NX will be more powerful than the Wii U and you wouldn’t be disappointmentafter 2 years and seeing the same visuals on Wii U’s level? Don’t get me wrong, gamplay over graphics but if i’m updating from a wii u to an NX i expect graphics better than Wii U’s. Because I paid for the UPDATE I don’t give a rats ass aboit PC graphics. The NX is more powerful than wii U, i expect to see visuals to meet expectations otherwise what’s the point of the update and making NX more powerful than wii U?

            6. Does mario kart 8 look realistic? No, but it still look fucking fantastic. Star fox looks like an half assed camecube game, the wii u is capable of much more. Look how bland the enviroments look in the gameplay videos. Pure laziness. No the graphics are not the most important thing but it is a testament of how much ambition and love the developers put in their work.

              1. Reality is Dolphin Revolutionized Cafe NX

                I have fate that they are improving the graphics, they probably used SF64 3d as a basis for this game and started to work with finished stuff to faster development also the fact that SF64 is regarded as best of the series may have contributed to this. Then they started to update it and make new ideas with it.

            7. I don’t mind the art style of the game, it has a cool look. What I mind is that the textures are low res, the models and low poly, and the game lacks the lighting and effects we’ve come to expect of Wii U titles. Nintendo shouldn’t rush this title. If it’s not ready for November, give it a few more months to polish.

              That’s why “Xenoblade X” is launching in December and “Yoshi” is launching in the fall, I assume. If “Star Fox” isn’t ready for release, Nintendo will still have a couple of new games on the market.

              1. Reality is Dolphin Revolutionized Cafe NX

                Im thinking that maybe they have stages filled with countless enemy hordes and thats why they are keeping the graphics kinda low to maintain steady 60fps. Its the same tactic Platinum used with W101, although the character models werent that noticeable since they were so tiny in the screen. F-ZeroX vehicles had low amount of polygons too for the very reason. Im not dev or anything like that so please correct me if im wrong with this stuff.

                Game could probably look little bit better, but im happy for the most part how this game is turning out.

            8. I’m actually really happy with the way the game looks. If I saw a game where I’m playing as a fox driving a spaceship while talking to a bunny, frog, and a bird that are also flying spaceships while we all try to shoot down a wolf, a pig, and a lizard that are, too, flying spaceships try to pull off a realistic feel, I’d question the developers. This cartoon feel the game has going for it just makes sense.

            9. Honestly, Shigeru, Mario Kart 8 is an example of a cartoony game that fleshes out its world and graphics, Starfox Zero so far doesn’t look as good as that, or Splatoon for that matter, what you need is detail and polish, and artstyle isn’t an excuse.

              1. 1. Two entirely different games with most likely two entirely different budgets
                2. One being one of the biggest Nintendo franchises and the other possibly one of the smallest
                3. One of the games being worked on for an extensive period of time and the other no guesses at all
                4. Duh dumbass bitch

            10. Not that it truly has an influence on whether or not I’ll buy, I’m still holding on to the hope that the graphics will improve at least a little before it releases.

            11. F*ck you Nintendo and f*ck you Miyamoto, you all used to make good game but now all you produce is SH*t. It’s not just the stone aged tech they release or graphics either because the games aren’t fun either and lack so much. F*ck Nintendo.

            12. I dunno if it’s the art style I don’t like, or if it’s the quality. I go to arcades a lot, and this starfox does not look like a Wii U game. It looks & moves exactly like an arcade game. I didn’t like the detail in the footage they showed. Everything just looked like big HD blocks. This is the first time I’ve ever seen a game look like this on a console.

            13. So wait….they won’t bring this game to the same visual standards of the starfox Wii U stages…for style? I’m all over being retro….but this just seems like a bit of an excuse to pump out the game quicker than they really want to….

            14. i personally don’t care what it looks like as long as the gameplay is great and because its nintendo i actually like how every game they make has different art styles, if a game has the same art style it becomes stale no matter how fun it is.

            15. Imma just gonna say it, Star Fix Zero looks hardly finished visuals wise.

              Barren, bland and low poly. That does not make it stick out in any positive way except if it were an early build.

              I don’t even know why they say the things the say in those interviews. Just say, its not completed yet.

              If indeed it’s the “style” they’re going for, then what I think they mean is, we ripped the graphics from the 3DS game to save money and time kind of style.

              I except more wow in the final product.

                    1. Ridley 4 Smash DLC!

                      No. This guy doesn’t deserve to have Eminem in his name. From my understanding, Eminem is a far better, more mature human being than this guy.

                  1. 1. It is not what anybody expected but it is still apart of the series and stop bitching like a bitch
                    2. I have read several comments on this website and others talking about the game and they will give it a chance

                    1. 1. And that’s the problem. Why should Star Fox fans get what they want after years of waiting for a proper follow up game but not for Metroid fans who waited just as long? Cut the cheap ass defense.
                      2. Others blindly giving this a shot instead of arguing what’s wrong with it are the same fools who have no fucking clue what Metroid is suppose to be because they never played the real deal; Super Metroid or Prime Trilogy.

                      1. 1. There is no defense ya dumbfuck that is obviously how it is so the metroid fans will have to wait longer and that’s that
                        2. A lot of people were just like you bashing like crazy but when they saw more game play and read about the game now they don’t bash the game as much and have more of an open mind and the producer of metroid said the federation force is a prequel to the next metroid game so of course that sparks an interest
                        3. There is no real thing lol you can play any of the metroid games and get an idea of the rest of the games if you havent played them
                        4. Have you read about federation and have you seen more game play I will watch the treehouse gameplay later this week and there can be much more to the game then meets the eye since it is coming out next year
                        5. Just like the rpg crossover people were surprised and mad etc etc and now since it was shown at the treehouse live and if those same people watched it will they change their minds how they feel about the game since they know so much more
                        5. Stop being retarded ya dumb bitch

                        1. The fucking chibi style for Metroid is all wrong especially for “Metroid Prime” and 3DS high quality and name sake plus mostly showcasing a fucking soccer mini game for fans who have waited YEARS for a new PROPER METROID GAME is more than likely not gonna accept it. They asked for a follow up of Prime and Fusion, not some fucking mini game in kiddy chibi style. You don’t know what the fuck Metroid is either so don’t fucking pretend that you do just because it’s named “Metroid/Prime” on it. Fucking tool.

                          All I heard and read about the gameplay plus Samus “being there” is that it’s a front to window dress this last minute tact on garbage to fool morons like you and have you come to think that the fucking style looks completely off and that Samus was mentioned to be in it but is she playable? Is she a side character or just a cameo? You, again, have no fucking idea about it or Metroid/Samus itself.. This is like Star Fox Adventures + Other M + Aliens: Colonial Marines all over again.

                          The reason why Mario/Luigi & Paper Mario crossover was a surprise because nobody expected this and that the idea WORKS WELL since both are RPG games and they fit. This shit doesn’t work for Metroid’s dark toned atmosphere and more importantly, it’s not what the fans asked for. Why should Star Fox fans get the game they hoped for and listened too but not Metroid and also Animal Crossing that’s now turned into a fucking Mario Party board game with Amiibos as its sole means to play *cough* MICROTRANSACTIONS!

                          B| This is the reason why the new Nintendo fanboys now are so fucking retarded to think for themselves because they claim to know all but never experienced shit about the real Nintendo/game we grew up with. So go ahead and enjoy your shit excuse for “Metroid/Prime” game because Nintendo is going down the toilet and taking you sorry ass excuses for DUMBASS fans with them.

                          1. 1. I keep exposing your stupidity and fucking botching and here we go again
                            2. Since this is a spin off just like the monster hunter spin off they can obviously do what they want with the art style
                            3. The mini game comes with the main part of the game which is 30 or more missions total
                            4. Of course that is what fans wanted but you should already know Nintendo listens to the fans and do what they want lol because then if they only listened to us we would possibly have every game we could want from Nintendo but you should know that will not happen or not anytime soon maybe with the nx but who knows
                            5. Guess what the metro I’d fans have to do now wait more lol ya dumbass
                            6. Tell me how I don’t know what metro is is when I have played all of the games you stupid fuck I still have my original gameboy advance with metroid fusion which was the first game I played and I played that game for years straight trying go get faster times then stopped playing games until I got a gameshark and started playing with cheat codes on a ds lite then the ds lite broke then I downloaded the game on the computer to continue playing with cheat codes until I get a ds lite that is my favorite game of all time most likely because I know that game in and out
                            7. I have super metroid on the wii u but stopped playing it idk why but it most likely is the best metroid game of all time
                            8. Now I bought metroid other m from ebay and idk why it is taking so long and I know all of the flak you gave that game but I have come to understand the game based on what I saw and which may explain the several things that happened in the game but I wont type all of that
                            9. Eat shit straight from the source ya dumb duck
                            10. No you haven’t read more about the game if that is all you know and obviously we dont know how samus will be represented in the game the developer just told us that and you know most likely he won’t say and the fans will find out themselves
                            11. Look at the treehouse live game play which I will do today
                            12. This game is a spin off lol and spin offs can look entirely different from the main game which I’m sure you should know if you are not fucking retarded but that maybe the case wigh you
                            13. For example there is a street fighter gem game and you collect gems so you can do specials and some of the attacks pay tributes to other capcom series and it is a parody fighting game to a certain extent but it is still a street fighter game
                            14. Now obviously since both of the mario games are rpgs of course they will work ya stupid shit and just how this game is in the same format as a prime game but with just a different style it works
                            15. Star fox fans have been bitching more then you lol about the graphics and gameplay which can be improved before release but even if it is not then o well they will still buy the game because they haven’t had a star fox game in years and thats the same for metroid fans I’m sure you know the people who make game petitions and look up gaming news are the minority in the gaming world because a lot of people don’t pay attention to all of this shit and just buy the games they like otherwise the gaming industry might have been gone a while ago since people only want this or only want that the fuck outta here
                            16. There is more to the animal crossing game than what was shown god damn you are stupid now of course nothing has been said as of now or if it has then I need to catch up on the news but I don’t care about animal crossing and a lot of people were pissed that that was the only thing they assumed they were getting but ya know what dumb asses judge too soon when they only get little information so they should most likely just fucking wait on more information
                            17. That was the same shit with the atlus crossover people were bitching to high hell of where is this from fire emblem and this from shin megami tensei then now since there is 40 minutes of game play and explanations do those dumbass people feel the same since elements of both games were combined to make a new game that should please both fans and newcomers
                            18. Damn so now nintendo can’t make spin offs of their games all of a sudden shit and that we know that this game has something to do with the 3d game which may give us hints and new knowledge about the metroid verse lol you must be fucking stupid all because a games art style is different to me doesn’t mean shit as long as the game is fun and has the same format as the game it is based on and can possibly tell me more about the series then shit I’m good
                            19. Like for example what if I liked all of the 2d metroid games but not the 3d metroid games because of how everything was changed from what I was used to and did not read about the games or watch gameplay or try them out for myself I think that would be stupid of me but of course I like all of the metroid games so it doesn’t matter to me
                            20. Nintendo is expanding now with what they have done and will do a lot of people may be passed but I don’t care about none of that shit as long as they make games I like I will continue to buy games from them and that’s for any game company otherwise I would barely be playing any games because I hate this and that about them and they shouldn’t do this and that and whining like a bitch it doesn’t matter how many petitions and all this shit happens a company will either continue to grow or fall and Nintendo is growing now will it work out for them who knows
                            21. I hope yo dumb fucking ass can read all of this and only reply if you have something good to refute my points if not then you lost again and shut the fuck up and eat shit

                            1. 1. You’re a moron
                              2. You’re still a moron
                              3. Always a moron
                              4. Moron trifecta broken.
                              5. Man still going with the moronic act?
                              Another 20 moronic acts later…

                              This is exactly why I pity humanity and wish they all burn in eternal hell.

                              1. 1. Of course you can’t read but you can sure eat shit and you lose again and if you don’t think so read again
                                2. I meant to say for point 4 that of course this game is not what fans want it but they have to accept it because you know they will buy this game and like it for what it is
                                3. You keep talking shit without having anything to back it up lol you lose child

                                1. Ridley 4 Smash DLC!

                                  Don’t bother anymore with this fucking imbecile, Stranga. He’s a Nintendo stooge. Nothing more, nothing less.

                1. Ah, nintendo bashers….expecting gritty realistic graphics from a game about a fox, falcon, rabbit and a frog dogfighting in outer space…

                  The idiots sure do come out after a nintendo announcement.

                  No wonder nintendo wants to get away from sony and ms, I’d want to get away from a market with the most spoiled, dumb, conformist consumers in the entire economy….

                2. People are a bunch of cry babies. Starfox Zero looks great to me. Starfox is NOT supposed to be realistic. Never was and never will be. also Miyamoto has stated before he CAN do realistic (Pikmin 3 comes close) but he doesn’t like to do realistic cause then it restricts your creativity.

                3. Uhhh, you can have a more cartoony style and still have it look good. This is not that by a long shot.

                4. I wasn’t really impressed with anything about this new Star Fox. It’s one of those games that people will have to play before the true impressions come through. It just looked same ol’, same ol’ to me.

                5. It’s too slow. The game is just too slow with too few enemies. All of you saying they still have time to develop are wrong. They have no time. They cannot develop the game all the way up until December, and then get the game out in stores in December. No way. They will have to have development wrapped up by October, maybe November at the latest… Thats not enough time to fix the problems…

                  Although I do like how you can fly into the boss fights, but the boss had NO resistance. There was absolutely zero challenge. Enemy design is just so generic, they even reused the same enemies from previous Star Fox games..

                  I hate to say it, but Miyamoto may have lost his touch..

                6. Miyamoto is truly losing his touch over the years and growing more arrogant as time goes by. So what he’s saying is that all potentially good games with realistic graphics (More than just Call of Duty) are fucking bland just because of relying on them? And I thought Miyazaki was an irrelevant old fart for saying that anime today is a mistake.

                7. Ridley 4 Smash DLC!

                  >.< The "art style serves a purpose" is a bullshit excuse for why the game's quality looks the way it does. You can respect the art style without making the quality look like crap. Just look at Wind Waker HD. The HD quality looked fan-fucking-tastic without sacrificing the artstyle. Miyamoto, you should be better than this. Why are you coming up with bullshit excuses similar to Sakurai's for Smash 4!? :/

                    1. I got a better idea. Quit insulting people because they are rightfully upset. You are no better with the complaining you are doing. Now shut up & go away. I’m so sick of the anti-consumerist bullshit some of you white knights pull when defending Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, & 3rd parties. Leave us to our complaining unless you people are so self centered that you people take our complaining like it’s some personal insult to you when it’s not. Do you work for Nintendo or any of these companies? If not, kindly run along.

                      1. 1. I’m not complaining I’m just telling people to shut the fuck up lol
                        2. People in the gameing industry judge too much and too soon on games based on littlr or no information because if the games improve then what you will kiss ass
                        3. The minotity on the Internet making petitions and bitching don’t mean shut since the majority of gamers don’t look at gameing news and just buy the games they want
                        4. I don’t need to work for them to tell you to shut the fuck up ya dumbass bitch drink shit straight from the source

                        1. Ridley 4 Smash DLC!

                          xD Whatever you say, Nintendo stooge. Go ahead & continue riding Nintendo’s dick since you are obviously part of the Nintendo Dick Riders. If you are going to be an immature little shit, I can do it right back. Now go fuck off & continue orgasming from Nintendo fucking you right in the ass like the good little bitch that you clearly are. But you won’t. You’ll just make another comment to someone that obviously is tired of dealing with you because you are coming off as the type of guy that just HAS to have the last word. So go ahead. I’ll let you have it because I’m done wasting my time on an anti-consumerist, pro-company douchebag. Have a nice day, kid!

                          1. 1. Nah I don’t ride Nintendo dick like yo retarded ass assume lol and I’m replying to comments replying to me how is that having the last word
                            2. I buy the games I like from any game company and all because you are butthurt about something don’t try to put that on me lol
                            3. Nintendo Fucks up in all kinds of ways but I don’t care about that lol they will succeed and fail that happens in all categories of life but if they continue to make the games I like then I will continue to buy but that is only a certain amount of games
                            4. This is how I talk to people and if you don’t like it then gargle shit bitch
                            5. Nope not a pro company person or anti consumerist lol show me anywhere where I said that and keep being retarded kid

                8. My only issue is the laser beams need some tweaking up.
                  BTW, Miyamoto is right, my PS3 came with The Last of Us which just looked like some generic photorealistic game to me so on my way home I stopped at EB to trade it in for credit towards my Pokémon X preorder. Ended up selling my PS3 after I got a good deal on a standalone Blu Ray player since I didn’t find myself playing Project Diva F and nothing else on PS3 caught my attention.
