That would have been an awesome surprise...
Why spoil these things? Like I was already excited to see the movie… no need to just straight up drop one of the biggest surprises lol.
It's to make more people wanna see the movie.
“Fox McCloud, leader of Star Fox. I’d like to talk to you about the Super Smash Brothers initiative.”
That's very neat but, did they think the movie would flop or something if they didn't spoil this surprise..?
The first movie made over $1.3 billion in the box office and is the highest grossing American, non-Disney animated film of all time.
There’s no reason to believe the second movie won’t be just as successful.
This is more for Star Fox’s benefit than the movie’s.
How's about a new Star Fox with classic approach to gameplay? With Krystal in it too.
cool, Maybe switch online+ might release star fox adventures. and then a star fox adventures 2 would be awesome
I wish i didnt see this.....
Oh damn! I layed my eyes on the image first and thought it was a game announcement...
But good idea on Nintendo to give visibility to this franchise
Upcoming Starfox game confirmed? After Zero I was sure the series was dead (even though the bonus content in Ubisofts 2018 Starlink was generally praised), but then, if Nintendo is thinking up a game mechanic or concept that they think fits best to Starfox, they would probably still give Fox another run.
I really wanted Switch to get Star Fox Zero, obviously modified to work without GamePad controls. Like, pretty much every other first-party Wii U game that wasn't already a port got saved.
Star Fox deserves to have a decent game with no BS and on a console that people actually own.
