Star Fox is getting the kind of comeback that makes longtime fans and even developers emotional. A designer tied to the series said he was “choked up” by the graphics in the new Nintendo Switch 2 remake. That reaction is understandable.
Star Fox has spent years in strange territory: beloved, iconic, but never quite stable as a modern franchise. The new remake aims to modernize the Nintendo 64-era experience with cinematic presentation, revamped stages, voiced dialogue and orchestral music. For Switch 2, it is a chance to make Star Fox feel important again rather than just nostalgic.
The demo is already available, which is exactly the right move. Let people fly first. Let the nostalgia arguments come after barrel rolls.
