It being an arcade shooter doesn't mean it shouldn't be compared to No Man's Sky and the like. There's no reason an arcade shooter in this day and age should be confined by a design philosophy stuck in the 90's. There's nothing stopping a game as grand as No Man's Sky from having mechanics to make it an arcade shooter.
Setting is everything here. You're flying in the infinite of space. There are plenty of design mechanics to keep Star Fox arcadey while still using all that modern tech has given it.
