Miyamoto says they aren't making a new f-zero game because they ran out of ideas but then releases the 5th remake in the last 20 years of the same shitty game.
Did 2 and assault/command rape miyamoto's mom or something?
I find it kind of endearing how much Miyamoto cares about Star Fox. Like, out of all the game series he created, you can tell Star Fox and Pikmin are the ones he gets excited to work on for better or worse.
He was the creator of the series and according to Google, worked on the original, X, and GX. Sounds like GX was his magnum-opus with the series and he gave up afterwards.
Same thing for Star Fox, he created the original and worked on 64 and Zero.
A big issue is that Miyamoto is pretty bad about letting IP off the leash and having others take it on. He also is averse to using other's creations, best seen in his treatment of DK and Wario. I sort of wonder if him being producer is why so much of the other Star Fox games get neglected. He didn't make Krystal, so there is an aversion to using her.
Note the "Free As A Bird" embroidered on the back of Falco's jacket. This is a reference to the name of Falco's old hot rodder team that he was a part of before Star Fox 64, which was established in the Nintendo Power comics.

All the F-Zero had different directors and Miyamoto worked as the producer only on the ones that were clearly hardware showcases for the newest consol, Imamura is credited as the creator of the series but he is more of an artist.
-The director of the OG game went to work on Maximum Velocity (the first one on GBA) and later went to work more on the hardware department, he was last credited on 1-2 Switch games.
-The director of X went to work on Luigi's Mansion and produced other projects and likely left Nintendo after Star Fox Zero and Tank Troopers in 2016
-GX/AX was outsourced to Sega during the Triforce arcade project and was directed by the Yakuza creator.
-GP Legend and Climax were an anime tie-in, had zero involvement from the original devs and the studio they outsourced went bankrupt ages ago.

After looking at the models a little more I think I kind of calmed down a bit. The designs themselves aren't so bad and it's kind of nice that they're referencing things from the comics but I can't get over Fox's tiny legs.

The weird irony is that the only really good Star Fox is the first game, so thank God they decided to remake that one a few times.
SF2 is alright. Command was okay. Assault... ground missions... ehhhhhhhhhhh... and I liked Star Fox Adventures? But that isn't Star Fox. The rest are pretty lame... all two of them.
At this point I'm just visiting to see how the corpse of the Nintendo I used to know is smelling. To think I used to love this company.
What a shitshow. I wish they had a single original concept or hook, but nope, just UGLY semi-realistic models. Who is game for? If I were a kid, I'd throw this game into the trash. They're all so gross looking.
I wish they had an inkling of creativity or originality, why couldn't have they animated the characters in a stop motion style like Fantastic Mr. Fox, or do something interesting with the puppet designs? It's just so utterly soulless, it's vantablack.
They have the most money they've ever had, and what for? To charge full priced games from years ago?
At this point just close the thread. The collective time of everyone here is too valuable to spend on this dogshit.
I mean if you're going to remake something because you're terrified of new ideas why not just remake Starfox II? Most people never even got the chance to play that one as it remained unreleased until the late 2010s.
