Nintendo of America has uploaded the explosive prologue for the upcoming Star Fox on the Nintendo Switch 2. The prologue shows how James McCloud and team were backstabbed by their crew mate and the tension that unfolds. Star Fox launches exclusively on the Nintendo Switch 2 in June.

I could never get into the Star Fox series, despite playing some of the games. The only thing that got me interested was the amazing youtube videos “A Fox in Space”.
I MIGHT try again with this latest entry but it’s not a high-priority for me. I mean, I would have preferred something new to try but at least they aren’t charging the same MSRP as their other Switch 2 games.
I highly recommend Star Fox 64, it’s one of Nintendo’s finests.
I have played Star Fox 64 and 643D
Have you ever tried the original SNES game and star fox 2?
Yes. Too disorienting to play for me.
And I’ll get the rest out of the way: I played and beat Dinosaur Planet (but that doesn’t feel like a Star Fox game) and I tried Zero but I didn’t enjoy the controls. That’s my extent with the Star Fox series.
Personally, I think it’s just a case of “you had to be there.” I didn’t play it for the first time on the N64. I played it on Wii VC. I’d love to know the data but I feel like there’s probably not a lot of people who became fans of Star Fox 64 after playing post-N64 era.
“I dislike the series, therefore everyone who does like it only does so because of nostalgia”.
Wow the people on this site are so cool and open-minded.
You have low reading comprehension.
I liked 64 3D but not enough to dive in the starfox franchise more so I kind of agree, that’s what bothers me with the remake, would have been way more interested if it was a new game in the series
The animations are top tier here. I wonder which team is developing this entry.
I agree, the models and the animations in the cutscenes gave a 2010 Sony animated pictures film which I really enjoyed
It’s such a missed opportunity to not make this opening prologue playable. Hell, they should have included a full remake of the snes game that is reworked plot wise to feature James and the old team.
It actually is a full remake since star fox 64 was a remake of the original.
