Maybe, but the hyperbole of "looks like a GC game" is annoying.

Yes I get what you're saying but this is still very bad. Graphics don't usually matter but when a AAA game looks worse than some modern smartphone game disappointment is inevitable. This was one of the few upcoming Wii U games I was looking forward too, but now I'm not. It looks decent but I'm not gonna support this kind of lazyness with my money. Nintendo should learn.

early ps360 games looked like the big gamecube games in hd resultion.

Yeah. I was pretty excited about Star Fox but now I'm going to wait for reviews first. I hope Nintendo doesn't use the sales of a rushed product as a reason not to revive more franchises.

They look pretty similar without doubt, but I do have to point out that 6 months before release of every game we have seen so far on the Wii U there has been massive amounts of improvement to the level of graphics.
Don't forget this is still likely about 6 months away from release.
I wonder how much of it is also the art style, even with that said, this should end up being far better.

I'm a huge Star Fox fan and Star Fox 64 is one of my all time favorite games.
But GOOD LORD, these graphics!!! This is unacceptable and I will from now on boycott Nintendo for having the decency to choose fluent gameplay over those all important graphx. /sarcasm
Seriously, there's no denying that these graphics are bad, but I myself am more shocked that people are complaining about it THAT much, even going so far as to say that they aren't looking forward to the game anymore.

you really don t handle reality too well do you (as it relates to Nintendo)  

Why do you or anyone else defend a multi billion dollar corp when they keep taking advantage of its most loyal supporters and customers-  Most people that are upset own a wii u-  they want Nintendo to do better because they are capable of doing better

yeah graphics arnt the BIG problem for me either, its not nice, but not a dealbreaker.

Im much more sad about no multiplyer. A online coop would be really cool.

Its not a stretch for consumers to expect atleast mid-gen PS3 level of graphics from a $40 or $60 game on a $300 console. Indie games on smartphones these days have better graphics. I'm not a graphics whore but this level of graphics is just absolutely terrible and its unbelievable that fans choose to completely ignore it for any reason.

but it DOES look like a Gamecube game-  The Gamecube game seemed ot have more detail too-  We will see how the final product looks- hopefully much better but so far it s pretty weak
