One other problem with the new realistic character designs is that, if Illumination makes a Star Fox movie, they won't use an art style that matches the Switch 2 Star Fox, because it's not marketable compared to the Mario Galaxy Movie designs for Fox and his team. The realistic art style could hurt the new game for that same reason. -_-

The art style will not hurt the game. Of those people who are interested in a remake of a 90s rail shooter, (which is primarily those who grew up with it and have nostalgia for it) the number who would pass over this will not be significant. Starfox back in the day attempted realism from the get-go with the live action puppets used in the first game's box art, manual, and promotion, or 64's realistic-for-the-time graphics.

It's not a big deal.

But it would be jarring for new, younger players, like 8-12, seeing the expressive Fox from the Mario Galaxy Movie and then going to a Star Fox where everybody practically looks like the MCU version of Rocket Raccoon.
