Yeah but imagine how many dungeons you could add if you removed all the dialogue and the stuff with the town.

I hated the kinstone stuff but the swordmaster guys taught you tons of sweet moves so Minish Cap gets a big thumbs up from me.

That's a good number of dungeons. I think it could have used a better final dungeon than the castle. The air dungeon was cool though.

Maybe they'll combine Star Fox and Metroid into one terrible shameful Nintendo failure game.

star fox 64 is the only actual good game in the series and instead of just basically releasing more level packs of that with prettier graphics they went out of their way to introduce all kinds of retarded mechanics

assault starts off as 64 but better and then all the sudden you're on foot and you control like a tank

You can switch to twin stick controls

Kinda balls that there are only three classic levels in the game though, game feels really slow too

was the scouter design for Fox and Falco created for Brawl? i never played Assault or Command so i always assumed it started in one of those games

What was command. I remember assault also being a turd but I don't I've ever even heard of command.

It was a DS title where you had a kind of tactical map on the bottom screen where you drew a path for your Arwings to follow, when one of them encountered an enemy it turned into a free-flying battle against a group of enemies. I think there was a time limit in every map too. I owned it when I had a DS Lite but it didn't hold my interest very long

at least the onfoot levels had air/tank sections that were really fun. the mission in the tundra where you're blowing up stuff in a tank and then switch to an arwing for a boss fight owned

Adventures is worse. Plus Command had an ending where Fox and Falco said 'gently caress this' and go off to become F-zero racers. Also another ending where Slippy has a lot of retard kids with some equally uggo frog lady and he looks like he wants to commit suicide. Can't be the worst game.

I'll admit I kind of enjoyed Adventures too. If you were a GC owner at the time, it was a budget Zelda to play before Wind Waker came out 3 months later. Not something I ever bought at full price, but fun enough to rent and beat on a weekend.

Was the A-button mashing minigame that you had to do in the Dino Village legitimately broken or am I just bad at that crap, because I tried to beat that thing 5 different times over the course of about 3 years and I never could.

if I remember right I had to use a pen cap and still barely beat that loving thing. and oh boy was the conclusion totally worth it :jerkbag:

Also Falco came back because he apparently left the team after Starfox 64 and his absence is never acknowledged once in the game until the very end iirc.

I also remembered it had a cover that made the game look like it would be some epic adventure with all the Star Fox characters traveling with you. Then it turns out it's Zelda-lite featuring annoying dinosaur companion.

Welp, that's my story.
