My thoughts on "Star Fox Zero's graphics look bad"

Well, you've answered your own question there; 60fps on two screens is why. As to why they felt the need to do that; Miyamoto. The guy is obsessed with finding "new ways to play". (see Project Giant Robot and Project Guard) He even said recently that the reason they haven't made a new F-Zero is because he hasn't "thought of a new control method for it".

I seriously hope he continues to lose influence in that company. And I hope Pikmin 4 is his last game. Seriously. I cry to think of how good that Sakurai Star Fox would have been. It would have looked better, played better, sounded better, had an actual original premise, had a script, had excellent voice acting - it would have been pheonominal. I mean, I'm glad we got Kid Icaris too, for obvious reasons, and Sakurai deserves retirement since he's basically killing himself now making games, but part of me wishes that Project Sora could exist without him and be Nintendo's rail shooter studio, starting with Star Fox Alpha or something.

Yeah, I hope Miyamoto retires soon. He's well passed his prime and at this point he's more of a liability to Nintendo than an asset.

I mean, the guy's made some truly legendary video games in the past, but these days he just seems totally out of touch, whether it be building Starfox Zero around the Gamepad, simplifying Paper Mario Sticker Star, or thinking F-Zero of all games needs some brand new interface.
