Wow, I never really thought about this as a possibility. Out of all of the games that Nintendo makes, this is actually probably not only the most likely Nintendo game to get episodes, it is really the only game that makes sense to get episodes. Think about it, Star Fox was an episodic kind of game anyways, there was an overlying story, buti n reality it was a bunch of missions taking place on different planets. If they do it right, and wind an amazing story into it, they could easily break it up into episodes by planet, or solar system, or however this one will be, and people will keep buying the episodes to get to more of the story (because we already know the gameplay will be great). I personally do not want this to happen, I like having the entire game in one go, I'm just saying, it could definitely work. Hopefully they don't scan VGChartz for ideas, because you may have just given them one haha.
P.S. Episodes make me think of TV, and if done right, a Star Fox TV show would be SWEET!
