LOL this is just fucking awesome! 



Voice acting as feared is a complete downgrade in almost every way lol but damn does it feel good to play! Already beat the campaign and now ready to start working on Expert!

Oh C'mon! You seriously think "My Empororer I've failed you?" Is better than "MY EMPEROR I'VE FAILED YOOOUU!"? 

Also I like the tiny way bosses blow up now. No need for epic DBZ explosions!

New VA is better. Fits closer to the somewhat more serious tone of the Japanese star fox 64 and the more realistic look.

For the most part, I don't take issue with the new voice acting. That said, I preferred two of the original bosses. The train boss, was just better on SF64. The lines basically identical but the delivery on the Switch 2 version is underwhelming. In the SF64 the boss sounded like he was in genuine panic when says "NO HIT THE BRAKES!" "I CAN"T STOP ITTTTT!!!" The delivery in Switch 2 game comes off as flat, like's missed his turn or something. The Shogun boss maybe more accurate to the original intent in the Switch 2 game but the "Cocky little freaks!" when you landed a hit and the death cry when he was defeated the N64 version was just iconic. It sounded like you were in a dogfight with Joe Pesci. Outside of that, there is one line that was changed that I preferred in SF64. "Sorry to jet, but I'm in hurry!" >>> "Sorry to jet, but I got places to be."



That time Nintendo ripped off SEGA

I'm fine with the new VA and such; the original ultra-cheesy VA was iconic, but I feel like any attempt to replicate that 1:1 would be doomed to come across as trying too hard and cringey, so going with a more grounded approach was probably for the best.





This is how you get ridiculous high scores in the game. Dude explains almost every trick he uses. 



One big improvement in my book is Slippy, that fucker was annoying as shit in the 1997 version, sounding like he was constantly huffing helium, and is much more tolerable here.
