Just let Starfox die a death, and concentrate on new IP.

Most of the boss battles are built around the control setup, which isn't that bad once you get the hang of it. It's the same controls as Splatoon, which people seemed to love once they adjusted. Star Fox fans just weren't used to it. I prefer the old controls myself, so I'd like a straight up sequel that uses the traditional controls.

Controls were fine. Most PG games have a learning curve dating back to Clover Studios. Once I adapted they were actually pretty solid.

I haven't beaten Star Fox Zero but from what I've played the design of certain levels is a bigger problem than the controls. I didn't mind the controls in the Arwing missions (they're not as good as they should be but it's not Lair-level of suckiness) and if all missions were like the first ones I probably would have continued to the end. My issues began with the Walker and once you got that slow, godawful thingy that forces you to stop and lower down a robot to push buttons or whatever I almost threw myself out of the window in frustration. Then you got to play some boring stealth level I think (don't fully remember, don't care) and that's where I stopped playing.

In short, fixing the controls wouldn't do much as the level design is a much bigger issue for me personally, so a port would also require different levels for me to consider it. Just make a new one instead, a good one with good levels and no fudging toy robots.

Probably because they continue to try to adhere to an early 3D, SNES design philosophy, rather than just letting the franchise evolve like every other franchise of that era has.

I agree. The game deserves a second life, where it isn't burdened by awkward motion control controls and not put on a dying console.

I guess there is people who will try to defend what is right, and others like you who just "don't care"

Yeah, Star Fox really needs a hiatus and retooling of its formula because as is, it's an archaic rail-shooter that has already been upstaged 1st party-wise by Kid Icarus: Uprising and the Sin & Punishment series.  At this point, I'd much rather have sequels to those franchises than another Star Fox game.  On the other hand, if Nintendo really wants a new Star Fox game, I'd say to let Platinum have another go at it without any input or involvement from Miyamoto.

lol, "try to defend what is right", suddenly your batman avatar makes plenty of sense.

Everyone knew what they were getting when they bought Mario Kart 8, and there's not a soul who bought it that will say it wasn't worth the purchase as it's one of the most fun and replayable games released of the last few years. Would it have been nice if there was a great battle mode on the Wii U version? Of course it would, but that's not what we got and they didn't fool us into thinking there was one.

We all knew precisely what was included when we bought it, so no one was wronged. Buying a port of a three year old game with a few new features like a new battle mode at full price will, also, seem unfair to some, but they're welcome not to buy it. This isn't being forced on anyone, so no one is being "wronged".

No. Because, I don't want to by a new console. Just to get a fixed version of the game. That should of had the controls, to begin with. It should just be patched into the Wii U version. I'd actually buy it.
