What do you mean the thing is? That's all the Fire Emblem series has done too since before Awakening, was decline and decline after each entry. So not sure what that comparison does.

sorry i guess i wondered off track lol

what i mean is declining sales caused Nintendo to essentially kill the Star Fox series, a decade later they resurrected it, if sales dont increase upon its return than Nintendo likely has no desire to keep it alive.

on the other hand you are right that Fire Emblem had been declining before Awakening, the difference is that they had not put the franchise on hiatus yet, they said Awakening was the series last chance.

Awakening was FE last chance and it passed, Star Fox already had its last chance hence the decade long coma. if SFZ fails than it likely just confirms to Nintendo that they were right it killing it off.

Nintendo mismanaged the franchise into the toilet, it used to be one of Nintendo's biggest franchises, the SNES and N64 versions both sold more than 4 million copies. That's more than any Metroid, console Kirby, or Fire Emblem game ever.

Then Miyamoto started tinkering with the series and refusing to make a proper sequel to Star Fox 64.
