Star Fox Zero Reconfirmed for April Release

During today’s Nintendo Direct, upcoming Wii U title Star Fox Zero was reconfirmed for an April 22 release in North America, following rumors of a delay. Star Fox Zero was originally slated to release in November of 2015, but was delayed in order to afford the developers more time to polish the first new Star Fox game in nearly 10 years.

my nintendo direct running commentary

starfox is ready. looks the same to me lol

ha unlocking the snes arwing with fox ammibo is cool

starfox guard looks crap

but the special edition looks great. woohoo steelbook

actually happy with this starfox news

splatoon update- big deal.

mario and sonic olympics 3ds. who cares

the wiiu version- waste of time

mario maker update- big deal

tokyo mirage sessions for wiiu looks cool.

paper mario wiiu! woo! looks fantastic. reminds me of mario sunshine

my nintendo rewards program- big deal

amiibo news- nobody cares

hyrule warriors 3ds- doesnt look good. im yawning

yokai watch- what on earth is this lmao. oh a 3ds game. im not interested

disney art academy 3ds- make it stop

ugh metroid prime federation force- total garbage. actually, it looks ok, but not metroid. just looks like they are using the name just to sell it.

time for eshop rubbish

super nintendo virtual console for new 3ds. good

gunvolt for 3ds looks good

more 3ds news ugh. fire emblem. looks good to be honest

dragon quest vii. doesnt look fun

monster hunter generations- looks great

rhythm paradise- lol

kirby planet robobot- looks really good

it was actually a really good direct, with a substantial amount of announcements.

obviously there is a big void where zelda wiiu should be, but clearly they are leaving that for e3.

i wonder what else e3 holds? ..

Summons753710d ago

Pretty fait points. Though you can't crap on Nintendo for using the Metroid name for selling Federation when people are praising Far Cry Primal which is clearly using the Far Cry name to sell. As for Zelda U, this was clearly stated that this was summer releases and Zelda WiiU is going to be their Holiday Heavy Hitter all companies have (MS: Gears 4, Sony: Horizon) so it makes sense not to be here. Overall pretty good direct. Star Fox Guard may look like crap but it's a small minigame that comes free of charge with Zero so more content is always nice.

''A REALLY GOOD DIRECT''
''a substantial amount of announcements''

thats a total of fifteen positive comments. with the closing statement clarifying that i over all found the direct to be a positive experience.

thanks for pointing out that you have little to no comprehension of english, no sense of humour, and can not grasp the idea that somebody might have an opinion different to yours. god forbid i might not like anything they announce. really? i think its YOU who needs a change in attitude.

my running commentary is the most honest you will see, you should thank me

TorpeAlex3710d ago

No one cares about your garbage opinions. Why even bother typing this out if you're going to be so dismissive.

deafdani3710d ago

Dismissive? He actually liked a good chunk of what was shown in the Direct. You'd know if you actually bothered to read his comment.

Or what, did you expect him to like EVERYTHING? C'mon dude. I'm a big Nintendo fan but half of what was shown on that direct was of little to no interest to me.

TorpeAlex3710d ago

@deafdani, I count fifteen passive-aggressive or outright mocking statements. But, I also read 'big deal' as sarcasm, however, so maybe he did actually care about those items but he did a piß-poor job of explaining that if so.
tl;dr Guy should get better at writing a running commentary if he thinks his opinion is great enough to type the entire thing out and post it onto a news article.

pcz3710d ago (Edited 3710d ago )

Its not dismissive, its a running commentary, IE wrote as I was watching. The amount of information being shown in the direct was high,and it was moving fast,so obviously I couldn't expand on everything I wrote,I just gave bullet point opinions.

Obviously I sprinkled humour in there

My over all end summary of the direct is positive, so what is your problem? what did you expect, me to blown away by absolutely everything?

Bottom line is I'm a very honest critic, if you dont like my opinion that is your problem

TorpeAlex3710d ago (Edited 3710d ago )

@pcz "Its not dismissive":
"Looks crap"
"big deal"
"who cares"
"waste of time"
"big deal"
"big deal"
"nobody cares"
"I'm yawning"
"oh a 3ds game. im not interested"
"make it stop"
"time for eshop rubbish"
"more 3ds news ugh"
"doesn't look fun"
"lol"

Does that put it into perspective for you? That's a grand total of fifteen terrible bits of 'commentary' on twenty-five bits of news. Learn how to convey your point of view better, sir.

God damn son, get a life.

You just post the same crap on the Paper Mario reveal.

No one asked you there and sure as hell aren't asking you here.

Go start a tickle fight with a honey badger or something

Summons753709d ago

Why are you so butthurt. I said you had fair points (though I didn't notice my spelling mistake) I just point out a couple things that weren't even meant to be completely disregarding your opinion. Sounds like you're the one who has a problem disagreeing with you which for the most part I did agree with you, but whatever.

pcz3709d ago

my reply was meant to be @ TorpeAlex lol

wonderfulmonkeyman3710d ago (Edited 3710d ago )

I'm glad to see more info on Azure Striker 2.
The original is one of my favorite games on the 3DS so far; the Mega Man substitute that we've needed for a long time. [Sorry, Mighty No. 9, but you're just taking too damned long to release!]

Also, MH4 for $20 for 48 hours! Hope on that deal PRONTO if you haven't gotten the game yet!

higgins783710d ago

R&C (PS4) and now confirmed Star Fox Zero landing next month... I'd better put my foot down a clear some of this backlog of games. April showers.

RosweeSon3710d ago

Star fox was looking slick.

Germany73710d ago

Awesome! Can't wait to play a new Star Fox.

RosweeSon3710d ago

Yeah after seeing the screen with the stages and sure I only counted around 11 hopefully a couple will unlock surely but yeah that alone and the water in the first section not ground breaking I know but enough for me to now be very happy to be grabbing this. Not sure about that collectors edition chucked in star fox guard which looks average at best but we'll see however they've given a steelbook but made Guard a download code... Just lame all round on the collectors edition I'll just stick with New Star Fox Zero for now thanks.

It's a good ponder. Nintendo would be stupid to not do it. The more titles and first party line up released on the Switch 2 the more enticed the customer will be.

Star Fox Zero, Was it Really That Bad?

Has time been kind to Star Fox Zero? Does the game have any redeeming qualities that are worthy of revisiting? Should it be considered for a port to the Switch? Was it really that bad?

Haven't played it since it came out, but I really enjoyed it. Can't tell if that's just nostalgia-tinted glasses, or if I actually consider it a good game though lol.

Vits1643d ago

It's a mediocre game that reuses ideas, scenarios, characters and moments from previous ones. Paired with one of the worst control methods that I had the displeasure of using.

CptDville1642d ago

Those controls. Boring and frustrating at the same time. Only with co-op they were bearable, but co-op was restricted to finished levels.

SeTTriP1642d ago

Yes couldn't finish it it was so boring.

MissAubrey1642d ago

controls made me stop playing also what good is a 65inch tv when you have to look at a tiny Wiiu tablet.. same with kirby & the rainbow curse..

Einhander19711642d ago

No it was great, just the control scheme spoilt things really. The wii u screen was not needed for it really

Platinum wants to bring Star Fox Zero to Switch

But any potential design changes would be up to Nintendo if it happens.

I’d rather Star Fox Assault be brought to Switch with online multiplayer instead

Teflon021692d ago

Finally, someone who knows about Assault. Best Star Fox Multi-player imo.

Neonridr1691d ago

or a Star Fox 64 remaster instead.

deadfrag1692d ago

Platinum Games wants to many things but sadly it does not show nothing new for years!They try to jump on all offers but end finishing none!

whitbyfox1692d ago

1: Get rid of the motion controls.

2: Bring us Okami 3.

Good-Smurf1691d ago (Edited 1691d ago )

I rather have them show more of Bayonetta 3 first before they talking about any new project.
This reeks Inafune's funding for Red Ash and Mighty No.9 animated series, both never materialized.
