The takeaway is every level fills a lot more alive than in the prior version.
Animations and character models are much smoother.
This remake looks even better than Zelda did. Gone are the sharp edges, onion-like explosions and most of the massive frame-rate stutters that plagued the original. You’re flying toward the center of the screen, into the depths, so unlike with Zelda, I found myself turning up the depth slider all the way to gain the biggest possible benefit.Īnd, visually, there’s a lot that benefited. Starfox is all about fast-paced, well timed-out aeriel combat. You’re Fox McCloud, leading your team of space mercenaries across the Lylat solar system to quell the threat of the evil Andross. Like every good Starfox, this one is an action-oriented shooter. I wouldn't trade the portability for the world, but there's still some ghostly reason to pull out the Nintendo 64 and play the game as it was originally released.Fast on the heels of the most successful 3DS game to date, Nintendo has released another remake of a Nintendo 64 classic: “Starfox 64 3D.” On paper, this remake should lend itself, even more so than Zelda, to the 3DS’ capabilities, but in practice, poorly thought out gimmicks mar what could have been a top-notch game all over again. I wouldn't say I'm disappointed with Star Fox 64 3D, and it will prove to be one of the few must-haves at this point in the 3DS lifecycle, but for purists like me, there's something missing.
Why can't I connect with others wirelessly at home?

While the download play functionality is welcome, it doesn't excuse the fact that I can't find other 3DS owners to play with very easily. For all of the game's modernizations, online multiplayer also missed the cut. That's missing in this 3DS version of the game as well. The original game came bundled with a rumble pack to give players the forceful feedback of crashing into the ground or getting hit by enemy lasers. Where are those original audio files? The same can be said of the then revolutionary rumble feature. The recorded dialogue was a departure for Nintendo and remains so today. In fact, the voices were what made Star Fox 64 so special in the first place. Sure, it sounded like the characters were talking into tin cans connected to each other, but it's a strong, notable departure from what a remake should be: faithful to the old game. There's a vulnerability, an honesty to all of that original voice work. What isn't a welcome addition is the new voice tracks recorded for SF643D. You don't need to dedicate a lot of time to the campaign to enjoy it all the way through, but being able to drop your game at one point and pick it right back up again is a welcome addition.

Of course, within 24 hours of receiving the game, I had finished the full campaign three separate times. The game also features a new save state that allows you to pick up your campaign again should you need to turn off the handheld after a brief play session. New features like the Score Attack mode allow you to take on levels at your discretion for high scores. One ending has you killing an impostor Andross while another has you blowing the real-deal's brains out all over his home base. Your path through the galaxy is determined by your enemy kill count or special conditions, like flying through each warp gate towards the end of Meteo.
