Starfox Wii in the making?

There have been sevral rumors from Japanese reporters and game developers that Starfox would be an interesting game to take to the wii. They suggested that the wii remote, wehn tilted could steer the ship, and other buttons would carry out the functions of barrel-rolling and shooting. However, these are only rumors. There has been no confirmationas to if or when the game will be released.

The purpose oft his topic is to start a discussion about ideas for the game, including controls and characters, and to estimate which story line they will continue off of from Command, if they will at all.

Feel free to discuss the game to your hearts content, as nothing can be labeled right or wrong here. If you do know of the official announcement for the game to be in production, you could also mention that too. ;)

this might sound weird but maybe the wii remote could be held like a joystick? ah idk just and idea

but if they do come out with one they need to do something new, but still keeping the arwing formula

o and assault kind of had a good idea but it just wasnt very good

so maybe you could fly your ship and board other big mother ships then attack the inside on foot like a star wars kind of thing

just spitballing here though

this is like the 5 billionth discusion topic for starfox wii :lol:

but ill say what ive said 5 billion times: a great combination of all three types of starfox games

My opinion is leave fox in the cockpit PLEASE. Could work amazing with wii control. Not sure if a on rails shooter could have enough content to make a worthwile game on... maybe a great wii ware game?M_Karter

Panzer Dragoon Orta was rail-based, and it turned out to be one of the best games on the Xbox.

imho starfox needs an overhaul. the series got messed up on the GC and lylat wars was basically the perfection of the 3d on rails shooter.

i think it needs to go a step further and start going the freespace route..with freelancer controls. more freeform and epic battles and the ability to command ure squad would be excellent. the series already has the different models of arwing (bomber, interceptor, all rounder and so on) so its not like they would be breaking any starfox rules.

and for god sake cut out that on foot nonsense. not even tanks. planetry assaults would be kewl but keep it in the air guys.

Personally, I hope they continue from the story line of Krystal rejoining star fox as well as Dash being the ruler of venom. That would give a new enemy, and that long romace between Fox and Krystal wouldn't just halt. Seriously, they messed up when they did that.

Anyways, hope fully they'll make Fox be on the ground a couple times again. Maybe some martial arts combined with weapons? Maybe having other characters fight along side you? 2 player missions? Customizeable weapons and suits? Oh the possibilities.... However, I still say they should make that arwing control system for the wii remote to fit into. That would be cool. Maybe some more units too, such as... the resurection of the old sub. I can't remember the name... heh. Oh! And bring in a new Great Fox, the new version of it looks like the SNES version, and that sucked.

Fox mcloud=GOD

This game =GODS dad

It will be said at E3 and I betta that they are going to use the Wii Zapper.

I feel like the pieces have been there to put a terrific Star fox game together; they just need to be put together correctly. For one thing, keep Fox in the Arwing. That is how the series got its popularity. Another thing, the Wii has the potential to have the absolute PERFECT control scheme for a Star Fox game. I like the idea someone had regarding using the Wii remote as a joystick, however, that would be slightly uncomfortable due to the shape of the remote itself. If there was an attatchment in the game's packaging to make the remote more like a joystick, I would be all for that control scheme.

Also, I thought the music was an integral part of what gave Star fox 64 such an adrenaline rush. Keep the ball rolling. I liked the music in Star Fox: Assault.

Why not nunchuk and wiimote pointing, that would work well. I would also like to see bigger ares where even your team mate actually kill villains and shoot the bosses. Areas could be harder and the bosses having more hit points but the game would be balanced out by having the other memebers taking part in the action. It would seem more immersive than just: please fox save me" annorying thing.vnc20100

I honestly hated the on-foot missions in assault. the controls didnt work as well as they could, and Fox had only two walking speeds; "stop" and "too fast". As for aireal combat, I feel that the on-rails concept should be completely trashed and let the flying in the hands of the player, like in the Star Wars: Rogue Squadron series. As for controls, A control stye similar to exite truck would be ideal for piloting an arwing if you think about it.

keep fox in the cockpit please,but a few on foot missions wouldnt hurt.i thought assault was solid,not great.... online is a must as well.

eat lightning and crap thundah!

starfox would be a great game for abusing online, i enjoyed the multiplayer for command, just scale it up to about 32 people like mentioned before. also on foot missions wouldnt be horrible if they just take time on it and pay attention to making the controls work for both arwing and fox, tilting the wiimote isnt the best controls for fox ;however, their great for the arwing, but it would be great if they can make both gameplays work

if it is true i hope its like starfox assult where u can walk aroundjude11

Me too. I just hope they dont make it dumb like some of the ground missions in assualt like fichina and whatever the second level is called.

if it is true i hope its like starfox assult where u can walk aroundjude11

if it used the Wii wheel, how would you aim to shoot?

im thinking of a more intense star fox, 32 person online, as a shooter and a flight game. oh ya.stoneyjack

Amen :) *drool*

I think they should keep Star Fox Wii's controls simple, for example, Nunchuck and Wii Remote; the Nunchuck would steer with the analog stick, and possibly the C and Z button on the back could be used for barrel rolls and other things.

The Wii Remote should be pointed at the screen for shooting and the B button would shoot. The A button could be slowing down or speeding up.

These are just ideas, we should look for more at E3, hopefully there will be something on it... And oh yeah, I hope there is both ground and space levels to it, but mostly space levels. I also think there should be 32 person multiplayer as well as 2 to 4 player online and offline co-op.
