Video Description

What happened to Star Fox? Most of us know what happened. But why did it happen? Okay, you might know WHY it happened, too. Even so, I think there is a lot to learn from what happened. Let's look back on the Star Fox series, in an effort to evaluate each game's merits, and find out what the future could hold. Chapters: 0:00 Intro 3:40 "Good Luck" (Star Fox, Star Fox 2) 24:54 "Never Give Up! Trust Your Instincts!" (Star Fox 64) 46:24 "What The Heck?" (Adventures, Assault, Command) 1:31:17 "You're Becoming More Like Your Father." (Star Fox Zero) 1:45:30 "All Aircraft Report!"

Star Fox Liam Triforce. Though Liam Triforce Zelda is a more popular topic, or perhaps Liam Triforce Mario 64... This is a Star Fox Retrospective, covering the original Star Fox on Super Nintendo (SNES for short), Star Fox 2 (unreleased game with many Star Fox 2 prototypes), and Star Fox 64 (I played Star Fox 64 with the Nintendo 64 Rumble Pak for added fun!). Furthermore, I played Star Fox Adventures for the GameCube by Rareware (or Rare), which was originally Dinosaur Planet for the Nintendo 64, which had Dinosaur Planet prototypes leak. From there, I played Star Fox Assault for the Nintendo GameCube (GCN), and Star Fox Assault multiplayer was a lot of fun, even on Dolphin netplay. Star Fox Command for the Nintendo DS was next, directed by Dylan Cuthbert. Star Fox Command endings were hilarious. Star Fox Zero for Wii U had controls controversies and I played it too. All in all, this was a huge Star Fox Retrospective in the vein of documentary channels and game review channels. I typed this, it was funny.
