Star Fox is my comfort series, really glad to see it's reviewing and selling decently, Velan studios really knocked it out of the park.
I am also happy it reviewed well and apparently also sells well. I played the original on the Super Nintendo as a kid (did not get why the graphics were praised, I just thought they were butt-ugly compared to the pixel art in other titles), missed 64 the time it was around (just so few games I could afford back then and none of my friends had it either), had a decent time with Zero in co-op with my girlfriend and thought now would be the time to dive into this remake, but somehow playing the demo I realized this is not the type of game I feel for playing right now (re-play and highscore chase). But I recognize the polish and production value they gave it and hope it does well enough to revitalize the franchise. So maybe for the next iteration I will be there.
2 Resi games in the top 10 at the same time :)
Hoping this is the building blocks to keep this series going
Didn't have to try hard, since Zero was such a dud.
True, but games selling more at retail today in a more digital era vs a game on Wii U (that had next to no digital sales) means the real sales difference at launch is even higher.
