I'm interested to see who among you thinks Star Fox Guard makes a difference in your interest in buying Star Fox Zero at retail.

To some of you, I'm sure you could care less.

But to me, I think Star Fox Guard looks to be a worthwhile game on its own. 

Let's be honest with something: it's primarily a diversion to main gameplay of Star Fox Zero. But for those of you who've played recent games by PG, the diversions are some of the best parts in TW101 and Bayonetta 1&2. I'm pretty convinced the rail-shooting sections of these games are a big reason why PG got to develop Star Fox Zero (and the mechs in Bayo 2 are why PG got to do Transformers). So to know that the diversionary piece of Star Fox Zero got upgraded to entire release on its own is a big plus in my book

I hope it SFG a story mode. I love the idea of extending Star Fox universe in providing Slippy some extra backstory and adding this charming, handsome Grippy Toad fellow into the mix. 

And while I'm looking forward to trying Star Fox Zero's local co-op, I do get the feeling that Guard will be the easier, more fun game to pull out with friends and family. The online portion has some promise towards giving this some real longevity too.

If Zero ends up being a bad game (which I don't think will happen btw) - I might just try to pick up Guard by itself.

Sure you *could* put this on the same disc as Star Fox Zero - but then you wouldn't get this awesome boxart


What do you think? Does Star Fox Guard's inclusion with Star Fox Zero make a difference to you like it does for me?



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Of course! I've been anticipating this project as a full game since E3 2014. The tower defense based gameplay is something that really fits with the Gamepad. It also looks like there may be boss fights. But the kicker, on top of all that, is that you can create, share and play other levels online with others! I am very much on the hype train.



Having a complete other game with it's own box for the price of one game. That makes a great difference. I don't think I was even going to buy Star Fox Zero anywhere near launch at the time of the Direct.



bet: lost

To me it's irrelevant.



                                                                                     

Not really, it's a nice bonus, and I do plan on getting it, but at the end of the day, all I care about is Zero.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Could someone verify something for me?

I'm not sure how Americans get the game yet. Will there be a special edition or does it come with all launch copies? Cause I know Europe gets a special edition but I heard it was a lunch for US.

I was going to get the game if it turned out to be great anyway so, it has no impact for me personally. I hope it's fun though. Can't go wrong with "free".

I'm pretty sure it comes with all launch copies in the US.



I was already so excited now I am even more excited for this game.
