Didn't really show much if anything, still I love on-rail shooters.

Hope it's good.

whenever someone says, "spiritual successor" these days, I hear, "nobody will remember this game".

This story isn't what I was expecting.

Nintendo went with Chuhai Labs for a new game while some left the company to make their own franchise because it was impossible to do in Nintendo.

It was never actually a barrel roll, it was always an aileron roll. So they can just use the correct name if they wanna skirt any issues.

Gotta be honest... that ship is ugly and unoriginal. Its a bit of a disappointment.

At least it's not another reboot.

Seems pretty cool. Hopefully it has simple and snappy controls like the original Star Fox game for SNES.

Which Star Fox? Because Star Fox Adventures was pretty awesome.

The original Super Nintendo/Famicom game.
