When Nintendo first announced that Star Fox was coming to Wii U at E3 2014, it was also shown alongside two smaller games - code names "Project Guard" and "Project Giant Robot." Not much has been seen of those games since, but they continued to appear on Nintendo's shareholder reports as upcoming projects. There's a whole additional game in the package It's really about two people sitting together and having fun together," Miyamoto said. "This is a little bit less of the type of play where you're really trying to tactically to go through the levels.

The second player can use the Pro Controller to control the Arwing itself and fly through the level. In that mode, one player controls the aiming with the GamePad, without having to worry about flying the ship. Star Fox Zero is designed entirely around using the Wii U's GamePad as a second screen, and using its motion controls to help fly. There isn't any way to divorce the Star Fox single-player experience from the GamePad, Miyamoto said, as it was designed to let a player fly in one direction and be able to shoot from the other independently.īut two players can fly in one craft together, one as the pilot and the other as the gunner. Miyamoto explained that he thought Smart Bombs were too powerful, and made the game too easy.Ĭredit: Nintendo 4.
Instead, they were going to be an unlock from a special-edition SNES version of the fighter plane only accessible through the Fox McCloud amiibo figure.īefore the Internet explodes with rage over the idea of only getting a powerful weapon if you bought a plastic toy, keep reading. But the explosives almost didn't make it into the game, according to Miyamoto. It wouldn't be a Star Fox game without the Arwing's powerful, target-seeking bombs, which were sparingly given out each level. "We changed the map structure so it has more of the branching paths, and is designed in a way so that you kind of explore the different pathways through the galactic map as you try to find the different routes to get to the end of the game." But what we found was the Star Fox 64 fans are really looking for an experience that reminds them of what they played back then," Miyamoto said. "Originally, we had taken the approach of thinking we are going to make the game maybe a bit more compact, and a little more of a simple structure than we had in Star Fox 64. This does mean you'll be playing Corneria for a second time before you can reach that stage, as you won't have access to the Walker (reminiscent of an AT-ST from Star Wars) right away. Once you've progressed far enough to unlock the walker version of Fox's Arwing, you'll have access to a secret passage that warps you into a different version of the level's big boss. We saw this action on the game's Corneria level, a city in chaos that's a total throwback to the other game.
You could stay on the easier path, or move to a more challenging level. If you did exceptionally well on a level - found a secret, killed the boss in the right way - you'd be rewarded with a choice after completing it. Star Fox 64's branching pathways were among its most-loved features. Mashable sat down with Miyamoto to learn more about how Star Fox Zero has evolved since we last saw it during E3 2015.
