Star Fox Zero

Winters Thief Zero wrote:^ Knowing how Nintendo is, I wouldn't doubt a delay. :p But if it's going to be January they might as well just release it this year instead. Come on, it's like a month earlier. Please Nintendo.

Good luck with that. XD

Lol Nintendo isn't very good with release dates...but hey sometimes they are. We'll have to wait and see if you were right.

I think the game is coming out October 23rd.  Also does anyone think the regular game will be $50 while there's also a bundle option with the Falco amiibo for $60?

^ That would be great, it would mean having to spend less money, and you all know I'm always for that. XD But I wouldn't be surprised if it's full price.

Here's some new character artwork!

It looks really nice, I love how you can really see how furry they are and everything.

Oh that's some great artwork for the main team themselves. Some fantastic detail with them and I really like how Slippy and Peppy look. It presents the team well.

It's nice to see artwork and I hope we also see some of team Star Wolf soon as while.

Here's a new level.



I did not watch it since I'm trying to avoid spoilers. There might be more to the demo though that will be shown in the coming days.

Yeah I'm not going to spoil anything, but I'm sure it's a great level. The game is actually out fairly soon, only around 3 more months!

I'm also not going to spoil anything for myself either. I want to experience the missions for myself. Though I'm curious about the voice acting. I'm glad to see Zoness return, one of my favorite missions takes place on Zoness in Star Fox 64.

Star Fox Zero has been delayed until early 2016.

I made a big decision last week.
We have been developing Star Fox Zero for Wii U with the aim of releasing it this year. Although we felt that the development had been progressing well, we now believe that we will need a little more time to work on areas such as the unprecedented discovery that we want players to experience in the game by using two screens, and further polishing the level designs and perfecting the tone of the cut scenes. While we have already reached the stage where it would be technically possible to release the title in time for the year-end holiday season, we want to polish the game a bit more so that players will be able to more smoothly grasp the new style of play that we are proposing.
To the people looking forward to the launch of the game this holiday season, I am very sorry.
Star Fox Zero is going to bring new game play and experiences that take it far beyond the framework established by Star Fox 64. All the members of the development team are doing our best so that the final product will not betray your expectations. And the game will not be delayed for a very long time – we’re aiming to launch the game in Q1 2016. Please stay tuned for further announcements.

You know Miyamoto having to play Iwata's rule for a bit likely played a part in this. I think Super Mario Maker, Woolly Smash Bros and amiibo will be the big holiday things for Wii U after this news.

Ha! I knew this would happen. @Zero: Told ya so.

Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash and Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival are still being released in the Holiday window, I think Nintendo will have to put more amiibo out before Christmas then, this game never could be a huge holiday title like Super Mario 3D World or Smash was.

DAMMIT.

The one big title releasing this holiday I was actually looking forward to, and it's delayed. Ugh, as much as it makes me happy that they're focusing on making the game as great as possible, with specific instances like this it really bothers me. Especially considering we were literally 2 months from release. I just hope it's early next year now...

@Queen
You really did, even after they confirmed the November 21st release...wow. Well I'll have to listen to you from here on out.
