Full Transcript for The FX Chip: How Star Fox Changed Gaming Forever.

great soundtrack, oh sound effects, 37 00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:45.760 and you know, it was it was a it was 38 00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:48.680 a pentacle of its time, you know, for that game until, 39 00:01:48.799 --> 00:01:51.680 of course, the sixty four the sixty four version had 40 00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:52.400 come out, you know. 41 00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:57.719 So basically star Fox was Nintendo's future statement. Before star Fox, 42 00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:02.159 it was two D platformers, family aiming polished gameplay and 43 00:02:02.200 --> 00:02:06.680 cartoon mascots. But this game had polygonic graphics, like you said, 44 00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:11.759 it had cinematic camera angles, it had voice acting. Remember, 45 00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:16.439 so we didn't see it had space combat and it 46 00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:19.599 was movie style packing. So it felt like, even though 47 00:02:19.639 --> 00:02:21.960 we're in the middle of the sixteen bit era, that 48 00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:26.560 Nintendo was moving to another era within sixteen bits. One 49 00:02:26.599 --> 00:02:30.360 thing that I could say is before Starfox in the 50 00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:32.840 sixteen bit ever, they were trying to go into Polygon 51 00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:37.719 three d's. Remember we had hard drive in I'm trying 52 00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:40.199 to think, man, Virtual Racer was it before or after? 53 00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:43.240 I think that was Starfox? Okay, so then this was 54 00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:47.479 this is what really made it revolutionary. So let's talk 55 00:02:47.479 --> 00:02:52.000 about that Super Effects chip because the cartridge came with 56 00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:56.039 that chip, and that chip is what made Starfux Starfox. 57 00:02:56.360 --> 00:03:01.120 So literally Nintendo's system couldn't handle the chip, so they 58 00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:04.840 had to put it on the cartridges, and the cartridge 59 00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:07.719 is what totally changed the game. And I can't remember 60 00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:09.879 how much the game was I'm pretty sure because of 61 00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:10.520 that fl. 62 00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:13.439 It had to be about forty nine nine nine, I'm guessed. 63 00:03:13.240 --> 00:03:17.800 So yep. So even though Nintendo had Mode seven, it 64 00:03:17.919 --> 00:03:23.439 wasn't built for the for the technology. So basically Nintendo 65 00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:26.479 engineered like, Okay, we're going to put the technology into 66 00:03:26.479 --> 00:03:30.400 the chip. So the cartridge itself became the enhancement advice 67 00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:35.000 enhancement device. So if we think about it, star Fox 68 00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:38.400 really extended the life of the system because remember in 69 00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:40.479 order to get stuff like this, in order to get 70 00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:43.360 like a virtual eraser, in order for to say your 71 00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:45.879 genesis to

do this. I remember they had three D 72 00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:50.599 games on the Sega CD. They had a few polygonic 73 00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:53.759 games on there. And then remember remember that game Hard 74 00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:56.120 Driving that they had. So there was this three D 75 00:03:56.240 --> 00:04:00.319 game which is weird now. It's called Our Driving, the 76 00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:03.800 Arcade game. It was polygonic. You had to drive through 77 00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:06.800 a loop, the loop, and I can't remember anything else 78 00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:08.840 in that because it was really a hard game, like 79 00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:10.960 I would usually die, I wouldn't do the loop the loop, 80 00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:14.520 or would hit the cow. And I remember Sega Genesis 81 00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:17.399 had it on the Sega Genesis. It looked crazy. And 82 00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:20.600 then remember back in the eighties we had we had 83 00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:23.600 Star Wars and it was like like it had like 84 00:04:23.720 --> 00:04:26.240 vector stuff to make it look three D. But we 85 00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:28.720 never really had the Star Wars on the Sega Genesis 86 00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:31.120 and stuff like that. But you would need the systems 87 00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:33.560 itself couldn't handle it. And I want to say later 88 00:04:33.639 --> 00:04:35.839 on with Virtual e Racer, it had a chip on 89 00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:38.079 it as well, right, either you had the thirty two X. 90 00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:40.920 Yeah or you or you needed I'm almost willing to 91 00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:43.560 believe that Sega had to put a chip in just 92 00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:46.519 like it did with Star Fox to handle it, because 93 00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:47.879 i mean, once you have the hall way at home, 94 00:04:47.959 --> 00:04:49.800 that's it. You know, they can't come back and get 95 00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:51.519 it and be like, hey, we're gonna put this in there. 96 00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:54.399 Or maybe they can, but I'm almost willing to believe 97 00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:56.000 that they put an extra chip in. 98 00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:58.800 Before Star Fox, most of the games felt like arcade 99 00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:03.000 like score bas based, but like we said, I liking 100 00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:05.639 it to the one cool thing about Star Fus well, 101 00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:07.759 it felt like because remember at the height of like 102 00:05:07.839 --> 00:05:11.360 any Star Wars movie, when they're all going against each 103 00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:13.720 other or the what they called the X Fighters, yeah, 104 00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:17.160 the top. Yeah, they're all they're all talking with each other, 105 00:05:17.519 --> 00:05:19.839 and you have that like radio chatter, and you have 106 00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:24.360 like the radio and stuff and the cinematic feel that 107 00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:28.360 was never fully captured, that wasn't even captured on the 108 00:05:28.399 --> 00:05:31.480 Star Wars game itself, But in this game you had that, 109 00:05:31.720 --> 00:05:34.680 you know, you had that it felt cinematic, It felt 110 00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:36.199 like you were in a battle, It felt like you 111 00:05:36.279 --> 00:05:41.560 had two wingmen, and it had dramatic fly scenes and 112 00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:44.079 then the character personalities, like it felt like you were 113 00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:46.839 literally in the battle. And then also we'll have the 114 00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:49.199 video that you could see as well. 115 00:05:50.120 --> 00:05:52.319 And tell you what else gave it if you had 116 00:05:52.399 --> 00:05:54.480 us like at this time, like we were looking out 117 00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:56.399 video games up to our stereo systems. 118 00:05:56.600 --> 00:05:59.000 So if you did that, it gave it. It gave 119 00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:00.560 it that much more depth, you. 120 00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:03.439 Know, yep. And then even like you said, like I 121 00:06:03.480 --> 00:06:06.079 said before in the previous episode, you remember like with 122 00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:14.079 F zero, even with this game Doomdoom, like the music 123 00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:16.399 was just on part. And we said this before, like 124 00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:20.000 Sega Genesis had like the synth sounds and then the 125 00:06:20.040 --> 00:06:23.040 Super Nintendo had more of the it was more sample bass. 126 00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:25.920 But I feel like when we talked about this before, 127 00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:28.839 when it comes to soundtracks, Sega Genesis kind of we 128 00:06:29.160 --> 00:06:32.319 felt like had better sound tracks to the video games. 129 00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:34.920 But even with this video game that the music was 130 00:06:34.959 --> 00:06:38.399 on point, like the hits b from you felt like 131 00:06:38.800 --> 00:06:41.600 you were right there. And then this was the precursor 132 00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:49.040 to Ace Combat Roe Squadron Mass Combat Space Effect presentation question. 133 00:06:49.319 --> 00:06:51.920 How do you feel I remember when I played it, 134 00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:55.079 it was like, holy crap, I was team Sega, but again, 135 00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:57.240 like I said, the Mold seven of F zero and 136 00:06:57.240 --> 00:06:59.279 then even with this was like snap, I got a 137 00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:02.560 Super Nintendo. Later when you first saw Star Fox, like 138 00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:04.079 how did that make you feel? Then? 139 00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:07.120 That I had a Super Nintendo and playing Star Fox, 140 00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:10.040 it really made me feel like I had like it's like, okay, 141 00:07:10.079 --> 00:07:12.240 I made the right choice with the Super Nintendo because 142 00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:12.959 this is fire. 143 00:07:13.360 --> 00:07:13.560 You know. 144 00:07:13.639 -->

00:07:16.480 I was like, yo, you know, I might beat this 145 00:07:16.560 --> 00:07:18.560 game completely, but I still want to own it, you know, 146 00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:21.399 because it's so cool. It was a masterpiece, you know, 147 00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:23.800 and you know, just to like stay with the music. 148 00:07:23.800 --> 00:07:25.680 And then you're out in space and you have like 149 00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:28.360 all the tide like nuotophys I'm sorry, the star fights, 150 00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:30.399 and then you have to dodge around the mediors and 151 00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:32.120 you then you got the stars and you can see 152 00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:35.240 like all the I guess the constellations and the backgrounds, 153 00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:37.240 and it was it was fun. 154 00:07:37.439 --> 00:07:37.639 You know. 155 00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:40.480 I felt like I won. I truly wanted, but owning 156 00:07:40.519 --> 00:07:43.399 the Super owning the Super Nintendo system at that point that. 157 00:07:43.680 --> 00:07:46.399 They felt like it was like wow, this is unreal, 158 00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:49.519 like this is actually on the console. Cause to get 159 00:07:49.600 --> 00:07:52.360 this you had to literally be at an arcade, you 160 00:07:52.360 --> 00:07:54.360 know what I mean, and I'm like, wow, this is 161 00:07:54.600 --> 00:07:57.279 yeah on the computer. I'm like, wow, this is actually 162 00:07:57.319 --> 00:08:01.279 on the console. I will say me personally, because it 163 00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:05.120 was that pre you know, three D error, and like 164 00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:07.240 like I said, with some of the thirty two big games, 165 00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:10.800 they necessarily didn't age. Well. Now I can honestly say 166 00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:13.439 looking at it now, I could. I could see kids 167 00:08:13.439 --> 00:08:15.560 looking at it like we would look at Atari graphics 168 00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:18.959 when we had eight sixteen bit. But back during that 169 00:08:19.120 --> 00:08:21.959 time it was a sight to behold because, like we said, 170 00:08:22.120 --> 00:08:25.319 the home consoles couldn't handle that. And then like that 171 00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:28.199 chip right there, I felt like, actually, I'm not at 172 00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:31.079 an arcade and I could play I could play this game. 173 00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:34.440 But now we're going to talk about, as with F zero, 174 00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:37.480 the switch from sixteen bit now the sixty four bit 175 00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:40.840 star Fox sixty four, that was a game changer. That's 176 00:08:40.879 --> 00:08:43.960 when this got enhanced, That's when they took it to 177 00:08:44.080 --> 00:08:46.879 a whole other level. So how did you feel the 178 00:08:47.000 --> 00:08:50.639 transition from star Fox the game to now star Fox 179 00:08:50.679 --> 00:08:51.240 sixty four. 180 00:08:51.440 --> 00:08:54.720 That was pretty phenomenal, especially being a date. I think 181 00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:56.639 that that was the game where they brought in the 182 00:08:56.720 --> 00:08:59.279 Rumble Pack, you know. Yes, so it's like I remember 183 00:08:59.320 --> 00:09:01.120 playing for the first time and the control of shook 184 00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:01.799 and it scared me. 185 00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:02.120 You know. 186 00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:05.399 They had they had a Kia set up the Walmart 187 00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:07.320 where you could play it, and you know, it's just 188 00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:10.120 like looking at the how the way the graphics had 189 00:09:10.159 --> 00:09:12.440 evolved with that game, and then now you have the 190 00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:15.000 roombo back, so every time your ship gets hit, you 191 00:09:15.039 --> 00:09:17.360 feel it, you know, and it just it just gave 192 00:09:17.399 --> 00:09:19.639 a game a hule. It just gave a game of 193 00:09:19.639 --> 00:09:20.799 new lights. 194 00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:20.679 You know. 195 00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:23.039 And then on top of it used to had the 196 00:09:23.080 --> 00:09:26.320 really cool soundtrack you know that was and yeah, store 197 00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:27.519 Fox was just it was it was. 198 00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:30.759 It was a jam and it kind of makes like 199 00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:34.480 so during this time we had two thirty two bit systems. 200 00:09:34.679 --> 00:09:37.840 We had the PlayStation and then we had the Sega Saturn, 201 00:09:38.000 --> 00:09:41.360 and Nintendo up the game with the sixty four. And 202 00:09:41.399 --> 00:09:44.799 this is an example where the n sixty four did 203 00:09:44.840 --> 00:09:46.600 things right, you know what I mean, Like you said, 204 00:09:46.600 --> 00:09:50.000 you had the Rumble Pack. Now you have fully voice characters, 205 00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:54.360 you have tight arcade pacing, branching paths now that you 206 00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:57.559 can go through, which the previous game didn't have replayability 207 00:09:57.879 --> 00:10:02.360 memorable Boston counters and and quotable dialogue within the game 208 00:10:02.519 --> 00:10:05.320 like do barrel role, you know, tell you to do 209 00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:07.840 the barrel role. So it made it feel like you 210 00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:11.000 were playing a Blockbuster. And then another thing that we 211 00:10:11.039 --> 00:10:14.480 want to talk about is like Nintendo has always been 212 00:10:14.559 --> 00:10:18.440 the family friendly brand. Sega Gennis was like the more 213 00:10:18.519 --> 00:10:22.039 edge cutting, you know, the more you know the teenager brand. 214 00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:25.799 And this is where Nintendo got cool. The main character 215 00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:30.000 wasn't like a cartoony character. He was like cool normally, 216 00:10:30.039 --> 00:10:32.759 Like I said, the characters of Whim's the cool, family 217 00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:36.360 friendly but

Star Fox had you had military squadron vibes. 218 00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:39.039 It was like, hey, it was like Star Wars rebel 219 00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:44.039 type Jedi, cool type X wing fighter type, sci fi 220 00:10:44.279 --> 00:10:49.320 pilot energy. So this would appeal more to older kids. 221 00:10:49.480 --> 00:10:52.559 And yeah, any further thoughts because I mean when we 222 00:10:52.600 --> 00:10:54.759 saw it on the sixteenth bit, it was amazing, but 223 00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:57.639 then the sixty four bit was like yo, and like 224 00:10:58.000 --> 00:10:59.960 we have a lot of sci fi fighters. I think 225 00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:04.080 I think they borrowed that the older games borrowed that blueprint. 226 00:11:04.360 --> 00:11:07.639 Any more words on that one, not really. 227 00:11:08.200 --> 00:11:10.080 I mean it was a great game for us town, 228 00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:12.799 you know, because at that time when that had come out, 229 00:11:12.840 --> 00:11:15.320 I had already made the switch to the although I 230 00:11:15.360 --> 00:11:18.159 had a Nintendo sixty four, I had already made the switch. 231 00:11:17.919 --> 00:11:18.600 To the PlayStation. 232 00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:21.960 And I know that, Let's see, I know that there 233 00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:24.519 was a Star Fox also a Store Fox of Soap stuff, 234 00:11:24.759 --> 00:11:28.039 I'm sorry, star Fox Adventures and a Star Foxer Soap 235 00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:29.480 that came out on the game cube. 236 00:11:29.519 --> 00:11:31.679 And how did you how did you feel about those games? 237 00:11:32.279 --> 00:11:34.679 Because I think this is where things really got interesting 238 00:11:34.720 --> 00:11:35.360 with Star five. 239 00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:37.480 I think there was Star Five's Adventures. I didn't really 240 00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:39.440 get too much into that because I wanted to five 241 00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:42.000 the ship. I wasn't interested on running around on the 242 00:11:42.039 --> 00:11:44.799 planet and everything, and I'd probably play it now. But 243 00:11:44.840 --> 00:11:47.200 when it got back to Star Fox of Soap, you know, 244 00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:50.039 that was a whole other game changer, you know, because 245 00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:51.320 that felt like you were really in a. 246 00:11:51.279 --> 00:11:53.679 Star Wars movie, a Star Wars movie at that point. 247 00:11:53.799 --> 00:11:57.720 And so this is where this is where Nintendo, and unfortunately, 248 00:11:58.039 --> 00:11:59.919 I feel like Sonic got caught up in this win. 249 00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:03.600 It had an identity crisis, like like you said, like 250 00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:06.159 Star Fox was like when you think of Star Fox, 251 00:12:06.200 --> 00:12:08.960 you think X Wing Fighter, We're gonna get a pilot game, 252 00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:11.840 but then they kind of tried to change star Fox's 253 00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:14.919 identity and with some with some ips, you can't do 254 00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:19.039 that perfect example, Sonic Frontier. I don't know why y'all. 255 00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:21.840 Did that, right, You're not going to cockit? 256 00:12:22.080 --> 00:12:24.919 Yeah? Yeah. So now it's like they tried to reinvent 257 00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:28.679 the formula and people wanted the evolution of the sixty 258 00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:31.480 four big game play, and like you said, they tried 259 00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:33.200 it way more like why are you gonna have a 260 00:12:33.240 --> 00:12:35.639 star Fox when you're on the ground, you know what 261 00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:38.440 I mean, when you're running around? It shifted to like 262 00:12:38.480 --> 00:12:41.519 you said, they tried to blend it with with Zelda 263 00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:45.799 Zelda is Zelda, Let star Fox be star Fox and Assault. 264 00:12:46.120 --> 00:12:49.240 Assault also mixed in the third person shooter shooter there 265 00:12:49.240 --> 00:12:51.279 as well. How did you feel about that the third 266 00:12:51.360 --> 00:12:51.960 person shooter? 267 00:12:52.039 --> 00:12:52.480 Did it? 268 00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:54.799 Did it? Did it blend well? Or you just want Hey, 269 00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:57.440 I just want to fly my my spaceship and do 270 00:12:57.519 --> 00:12:59.639 spaceship things I have. 271 00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:02.200 I'm the third person because sometimes I would switch back 272 00:13:02.200 --> 00:13:04.840 and forth between first and third, you know, sometimes I 273 00:13:04.840 --> 00:13:07.039 would want to be like inside the cockpit so I 274 00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:10.039 could just see the crossbar and I could move a 275 00:13:10.080 --> 00:13:12.080 lot faster, and sometimes like when the third person I 276 00:13:12.080 --> 00:13:14.440 would jump out and you can see the ship, you know, 277 00:13:14.799 --> 00:13:18.600 particularly if I'm flying around a lot of buildings or 278 00:13:18.720 --> 00:13:20.000 just like you know a lot of stuff, Like I 279 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:22.159 would switch to that third person view so I could 280 00:13:22.159 --> 00:13:24.039 see it, and it's like, okay, watch out, like turn 281 00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:26.440 the ship, you know, so you don't crash those wings. 282 00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:27.840 You know, once you crash one of those wings and 283 00:13:27.879 --> 00:13:29.600 like all of a sudden, no, he's not flying straight 284 00:13:29.799 --> 00:13:30.039 and you. 285 00:13:30.039 --> 00:13:31.600 Got to hold control with this way. 286 00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:33.919 I was like, yeah, so I like the fact that 287 00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:36.720 you could switch between first and third So like yeah. 288 00:13:36.600 --> 00:13:40.600 It's like it became a test franchise. And the meanwhile, 289 00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:45.559 we saw them refine Mario Kart. We saw them evolve Zelda, 290 00:13:46.159 --> 00:13:48.960 and then we saw Metroid, which I never

really got into, 291 00:13:49.039 --> 00:13:52.320 but they refined Metroid. And then star Fox was like okay, 292 00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:56.120 we're gonna mess around. But back to my point, star 293 00:13:56.200 --> 00:14:01.240 Fox was a very important ip that revolutionize Nintendo's three 294 00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:04.879 D revolution. The games that Nintendo got right that they 295 00:14:04.879 --> 00:14:09.360 did three D Mario Kart that's zero and then star 296 00:14:09.480 --> 00:14:12.879 Fox yep. And because like without star Fox, they wouldn't 297 00:14:12.879 --> 00:14:15.120 have been a Mario six or four. That wouldn't have 298 00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:18.039 been sorry yep xel doc Arena, Yep, they wouldn't have 299 00:14:18.039 --> 00:14:21.559 been a zero X. And because Nintendo's three D confidence, 300 00:14:21.639 --> 00:14:24.120 this was the this was the builder. And all right, 301 00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:27.279 we're gonna go ahead with this. So now what we're 302 00:14:27.279 --> 00:14:30.600 gonna talk about is with all this being said, and 303 00:14:30.639 --> 00:14:32.519 then shout out because I hope they get this right. 304 00:14:32.759 --> 00:14:36.080 Shout out to the Resident Evil remakes, because they they did. 305 00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:40.320 Capcom did their thing. Shout out to Final Fantasy remake. 306 00:14:40.559 --> 00:14:44.080 Now we get a Star Fox remake, Sean, I want 307 00:14:44.120 --> 00:14:46.759 to ask you a question, why do people want Star Fox? 308 00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:48.840 Why do they want Star Fox back stylegia. 309 00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:52.919 Star Fox was a great game, you know when they 310 00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:56.720 first introduced on Super Nintendo and also with the Nintendo 311 00:14:56.759 --> 00:15:00.360 sixty four. Now a lot of people well fee with 312 00:15:00.360 --> 00:15:03.240 the Star Fox Adventures, but Star Fox is so picked 313 00:15:03.279 --> 00:15:06.600 it up. And shout out to also the handheld consoles 314 00:15:06.639 --> 00:15:08.679 like Nintendo three DS because it was a Star Fox 315 00:15:08.720 --> 00:15:10.799 on the hell so I have it in three D DS. 316 00:15:10.960 --> 00:15:11.480 Is a good game. 317 00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:14.000 But you know, I think that right now, not only 318 00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:16.399 do they want the nostalgia, people just gonna have fun. 319 00:15:16.679 --> 00:15:17.440 You know, we won't we. 320 00:15:17.399 --> 00:15:19.360 Won't what we want, what we want what we had 321 00:15:19.440 --> 00:15:22.159 back then, Like why not make a start Fox? Why 322 00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:23.919 not make a new Double Dragon, which they've made a 323 00:15:23.919 --> 00:15:26.679 double Dragon, you know, why not? You know they've brought 324 00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:30.720 back dunct tails a few years back. But yeah, yeah, 325 00:15:30.759 --> 00:15:34.399 and yet an educating Shinobi.

And I don't think the only 339 00:16:09.159 --> 00:16:12.039 ones that I could think where they really like damn 340 00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:14.679 is with Sonic. But I think with star Fox, as 341 00:16:14.679 --> 00:16:17.720 long as you keep the elements there, you really can't 342 00:16:18.039 --> 00:16:20.799 you can't mess it up because I like that you 343 00:16:20.799 --> 00:16:23.600 could have different paths, and I like that it's open 344 00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:27.240 world and then you keep the main character is the same, right, 345 00:16:27.440 --> 00:16:29.759 just enhance the graphics if you will. 346 00:16:29.960 --> 00:16:32.240 I think that one of the things that I hope 347 00:16:32.279 --> 00:16:34.039 that they do, and because of me, and that's not 348 00:16:34.039 --> 00:16:36.759 going to I mean, if it's a remake of star 349 00:16:36.879 --> 00:16:38.320 Fox sixty four, it's. 350 00:16:38.159 --> 00:16:39.559 Not going to be a very long game. 351 00:16:40.000 --> 00:16:42.559 I mean and technically for me, I don't have to 352 00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:44.200 have a game that's twelve hours to be fun. 353 00:16:44.440 --> 00:16:44.960 It just has to. 354 00:16:45.320 --> 00:16:46.480 It just has to pull me in and have a 355 00:16:46.519 --> 00:16:48.720 high replay value. The game could be two hours on 356 00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:51.159 I'm going to enjoy. It doesn't matter. But one of 357 00:16:51.200 --> 00:16:52.919 the things that I hope that they do is that 358 00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:56.080 they actually add like a doc content kind of add 359 00:16:56.159 --> 00:16:59.320 like maybe add some of the levels from Start Ox 360 00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:01.919 or Soap, you know, just kind of kind of like 361 00:17:01.919 --> 00:17:04.640 the like kind of like Sonic Menia. Okay, it's like okay, 362 00:17:04.720 --> 00:17:06.640 let's let me hey, you know what, and instead of 363 00:17:06.640 --> 00:17:09.079 like making a whole new game, you know, let's just 364 00:17:09.319 --> 00:17:11.680 expand

So it was like yeah, 408 00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:00.720 And that was back in ninety three, three years ago. 409 00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:03.559 So in the iteration of evolution of Star Fox, do 410 00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:07.160 you think Nintendo mishandled the franchise dropped the ball at 411 00:19:07.200 --> 00:19:08.000 certain periods? 412 00:19:08.200 --> 00:19:12.279 No, not really, you know Stall Fox maybe, I guess 413 00:19:12.319 --> 00:19:14.440 I could say like Star Fox could be like like that. 414 00:19:14.519 --> 00:19:17.200 Michael Jackson Element comes around every four or six years, 415 00:19:17.240 --> 00:19:19.160 you know, per system, like we had it. 416 00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:20.880 We had one on the Super Nintendo. 417 00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:23.640 We should have had two, but they they never got released, 418 00:19:23.759 --> 00:19:26.319 and then we had one on the sixty four. 419 00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:28.079 We had two on the GameCube. 420 00:19:28.119 --> 00:19:29.480 So that's how she was just one that had the 421 00:19:29.480 --> 00:19:31.440 most as far as I know, and we didn't have 422 00:19:31.480 --> 00:19:33.640 any on the switch. Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait, 423 00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:36.680 I'm sorry. There was another Star Fox game. They came 424 00:19:36.680 --> 00:19:39.160 out on Nintendo. It was on though we you. I 425 00:19:39.200 --> 00:19:40.720 didn't really play it, had a friend that had it, 426 00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:43.279 but so that's my bad listeners. 427 00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:45.880 Then that was that was the time that they had 428 00:19:45.880 --> 00:19:50.720 the identity crisis. Yeah, so it wasn't it wasn't on brand. Yeah, 429 00:19:50.759 --> 00:19:52.160 so we'll if you for that. 430 00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:55.880 Yeah, but you know, nintend Nintendo, Nintendo we U was 431 00:19:55.880 --> 00:19:59.720 a solid system in my opinion, and I think that, 432 00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:01.480 Like I said, I had a friend that had it. 433 00:20:01.519 --> 00:20:03.240 I watched it and play it a little bit, but 434 00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:05.680 I don't know if it was memorable or not. 435 00:20:06.519 --> 00:20:08.319 Let me say, I didn't play it, but I am 436 00:20:08.519 --> 00:20:12.119 excited to see the Stall Fox come out to the 437 00:20:12.119 --> 00:20:12.640 Twitch too. 438 00:20:12.839 --> 00:20:15.039 You're especially with the enhanced graphics. 439 00:20:14.559 --> 00:20:17.160 And

then we also got into it. Why does star 440 00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:20.119 Fox sixty four still feel cool today? Why does it 441 00:20:20.160 --> 00:20:22.680 still feel like you know it aged? Well, it's like 442 00:20:22.720 --> 00:20:24.200 because of that zero. 443 00:20:24.519 --> 00:20:25.759 Yeah, we have rumble packs. 444 00:20:25.920 --> 00:20:29.319 I mean the PlayStation controls didn't even rumble, I believe 445 00:20:29.400 --> 00:20:33.000 until after Star Fox sixty four year. Yeah, so it 446 00:20:33.079 --> 00:20:35.839 just has a branded it looks like, it looks dated. 447 00:20:36.160 --> 00:20:39.279 It still has a fun replayability. I will still go back. 448 00:20:39.200 --> 00:20:41.680 And play more Star Fox sixty four to this day. 449 00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:42.799 In fact, I have it. 450 00:20:43.160 --> 00:20:45.640 But yeah, yep, So, ladies and gentlemen, that's our thing. 451 00:20:45.759 --> 00:20:48.119 And then I want to bring up too that because 452 00:20:48.160 --> 00:20:51.119 of the emulators, and I'm gonna have Hey, we're gonna 453 00:20:51.160 --> 00:20:53.960 have footage on here.

Let us give us feedback. We've been 474 00:21:43.200 --> 00:21:47.519 loving the feedback. I didn't realize that Powerstone was just 475 00:21:47.559 --> 00:21:52.240 a month after Smash Brothers, but Powerstone was more popular 476 00:21:52.400 --> 00:21:55.880 at the time before Smash Brothers blew up. So my 477 00:21:56.000 --> 00:21:59.079 correction on that they still have their likeness and I 478 00:21:59.119 --> 00:22:01.440 think Powers could have been just as big as an 479 00:22:01.440 --> 00:22:04.000 Ips Smash Brothers. They had elements of the same. And 480 00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:06.319 then the intro and outro music you're listening to is 481 00:22:06.359 --> 00:22:09.640 yours truly. Check out my hip hop persona Furious f 482 00:22:09.759 --> 00:22:12.720 U R y U s. And then my cinematic music 483 00:22:12.799 --> 00:22:16.240 producer persona is my name markis Sneis.
