The whole Star Fox universe has an immense potential of becoming a really written-out series or longer feature film. Really wish they could give the franchise a chance again like this.
I'm in the same boat with you. I still see sooooooo much potential left in the series. It just needs to be executed properly. If you ask me, this is the first I believe Nintendo should take some heavy notes from the fanmade game "StarFox: Events Horizon" fanmade game. Now THAT's a game to truly show off alot of light and potential for the series that could get the franchise back on track!
I always felt that Star Fox could definitely work as a series if you take aspects from other anime genres such as Sentai, Mech, Fantasy, Adventure, and combine it into a Coming Of Age story with Slice Of Life aspects set in a universe similar to that of Beast Stars where the characters have actual lives outside of the conflicts within that world. It draws HEAVILY from the lore and mythos of the games but maybe set in a different universe from that of the games. My idea always consisted of a young Fox McCloud trying to balance his social life and academic life at the Cornerian Air Force Academy while also living up to the legacy of James McCloud, leading his own young team of pilots (Falco Lombardi the hot-head, Slippy Toad the brains, Peppy Hare Jr. the muscle of the group, and Bill Grey the free-spirited one), clashing with his academic rival Wolf O'Donnell and his team (Leon Powalski, Pigma Dengar, Andrew Oikonny, and Panther Caroso), and also the threat of the Androssian Empire. You can even do arcs and sagas based on the various games like the Lylat War Saga, Dinosaur Planet Arc, the Aparoid Arc, the Anglar Empire arc, and introduce characters from those games. Hell, you can even bring in characters from the comics and introduce brand new characters.
I actually saw a piece of artwork about Falco a little while back. At first I didn’t know who he was but the artwork was him being Tokoyami’s dad and Raven from teen Titans was his mom.😅 I was so confused cause I didn’t know who he was until I did a little research and I saw this video. And honestly I think I see why the artist made falco and Raven the parents of Tokoyami.🤷♀️
TotallyCarbon They'll have to raggle the copyright from the creators... Oh, wait, no need, they can just Steel ideas and series and shutdown the whole internet if they pleased. Totally forgot who we were talking about here. :p
Oh my god, I love this take on things. Fox, Falco, and Slippy are a bunch of sloppy, immature late-teens pilots, and Peppy is basically the nagging parent of the group (who always has to clean up after them). They nailed Falco's personality with the frustration at dying in a video game. And a solid scene of them working as a team? This is probably the best piece of Star Fox media ever released. It fleshes out the main four characters so well! I love it! Now if only there were something like this for Star Wolf. That would be great.
Well, if Falco is the evolutionarily sentient equivalent of the peregrine falcon, he likely has a flicker fusion frequency greater than or equal to 129 Hertz, which means he experiences time more slowly than human beings who have a flicker fusion frequency of around 60 Hertz, assuming that the human being in question doesn't consume large amounts of Mountain Dew or regularly snort massive lines of cocaine. So your assertion would be scientifically valid. And don't do drugs, just do the Dew.
StarFox has had such a difficult struggle to find its style, whether it be rail shooter or adventure style. I really do think an animated series like this would benefit the series as a whole ^^
@@stephenbyrne2170 I think Star Fox 64 3D didn't sell well enough for them, and then Star Fox Zero had underwhelming sales as well. The sad part is that Star Fox Zero is good, but the motion controls kind of hinder it. Other than that, it's the best SF game since SF64.
@@GameBeatenakaKevinS I kinda want Star Fox Zero to the ported to the Switch, and have the gameplay be completely redone to be basically an HD remake of Star Fox 64. And I’m sure a lot of fans would be completely on board with that. The Wii U gamepad would be just a different view point by moving right stick + up.
@@andresmarrero8666 They did, it was basically the backstory of how Fox reformed the StarFox team. In it, Fox was a prodigy pilot with the Cornerian Flight Academy while being friends and rivals with Falco as well as friends with Slippy. After he learned about his father's death he was pissed that Corneria wasn't going to respond to the death of his father so he decided to drop out of the academy and become the new leader of Star Fox.
I agree, I like this show so much that it should be its own series. And I came to realize that if I were to compare them to TMNT characters, Fox would be like Leonardo because of his leadership, Peppy would be like Master Splinter for being the eldest member, Slippy is like the combination of Donatello and Mikey for having his inventive side and his childish side and Falco would be like Raphael because he's the most aggressive character who tends to bicker with members of his own team, especially Slippy.
Nintendo is sleeping on potential and also sleeping on their fans for lacking to see want we love. Super Mario, Zelda, Star Fox all perfect for modern animation movies
This was so well made. It's a shame Starfox Zero did so poorly, now Nintendo is probably not going to make anything Starfox related for a long time. I wonder if they were planning on making a series like this if the game did well.
@Tanya Collett Same here! Star Fox has been my favorite over Mario and others! (I do like other Nintendo exclusives, but I like Star Fox all the way) Star Fox 64 was way ahead of time though to be considered an epic game.
StarLink did give Star Fox another playable appearance, although whole toys to life thing is poor on sales. But my gripe is this. If the developers would stop trying so hard on innovation and just focus on the basics, right down to providing content, then Star Fox Zero would be in a better place than what was presented. The game is a bit over average to me, because there were so many things they've could have improved.
They made one for Zelda, two for Mario, and a number of series for Sonic. But never for the Star Fox games, just do not understand it. Its a real shame to say the least.
If this was a full show, I would pay ungodly amounts of money to keep watching, this is so cool and coming from a Star Fox fan, it's so neat seeing all of this in an anime style short.
Well the whole thing is inaccurate cause they used a missle thing and the tower was being swarmed and their where different quotes and it looked different in a way
Wow just wow. Everything was just spot on, the animation, the voice acting, everything. It was an absolute joy to see the Star Fox gang back in action. Even seeing the lylas system residents was a treat since we never see ordinary life in the games. It was halarious seeing Falco play the old Star Fox game and even just seeing Fox, Slippy, and Peppy all just living ordinary day life's was refreshing and makes us viewers see what their like in there downtime. :) To all the people who made this film, this is a dream come true for Star Fox fans everywhere and thank you from the bottom of our hearts. My only nitpick with the film is that I really wish Krystal was in the game, as I really enjoy her as Fox's wife, and would love to see her interact with the team. 1000 out of 10 Nintendo. :)
@@AmyTheBrawlergood thing Starfox Command wasn't canon, because it was full-on TRASH! Starfox Command is, as far as I'm concerned, the worst Starfox game of ALL time. I would consider Command worse than Guard(which really had nothing to do with Starfox whatsoever), just because Command's controls make it downright unplayable.
I'm with you. I'd love to see Krystal return. Though they'd need to age her up, as in Adventures she was 7 years younger than Fox, which would make her about 11 here. ^ ^; I'd be perfectly fine if they were the same age, myself. Would be sweet if they met at the academy.
I think this just may be my favorite voice for Fox. Yeah I like how they got the og from 64 back but, most of his lines delivered today sound so...commercially (mostly because he used to be a radio host) they came off so natural in the original 64. Here, Joe Zieja makes Fox sound brash, fierce, but strong willed and determined, more focused. Perfect for a stern leader.
Given the fact they were planning to leave Atlas at the end of the Starwolf story in Starl-link, maybe that could be a good entry point for introducing Krystal once more?
Okay I'm TOTALLY down for this to be a full series. Star Fox is one of my all time favorite under appreciated Nintendo series. I bet a full on anime series would generate some hype and get us some more games for it.
Falco:does peppy have to go to the bathroom right before every mission? I died at that part Edit: no joke I forgot this comment existed Edit 2: still forget it existed
I am just screaming here with all the references. B on the Smart Bomb The "Good Luck" on Fox's intercom when they shoot off "Do a Barrel Roll!" It's almost like we could have good cartoon spin-off shows of videogames if the writers truly care.
+Jamal Richardson Nintendo have so much stuff that they can turn into anime. I'd love to see Star Fox, Kid Icarus, Legend of Zelda and Metroid become anime.
Why can't Nintendo just make animes of all of there franchises. Think about it, Starfox, Legend of Zelda, Kid Icarus, Fire Emblem and so. I'm willing to give you money Nintendo, make it happen!!!
Waifu Speedwagon There was a Fire Emblem anime in the 90s, but it got cancelled after only a few episodes (funny thing is, it was localized, while the games weren't)
If there will ever be a legend of Zelda anime, we need to bring back the "Excuuuuuse me, princess!" from the 80's legend of Zelda tv show, or the anime will be not as quality.
step 1: like the video step 2: add it to your favorites step 3: keep watching the video, over and over and over... step 4: show it to your friends step 5: DEMAND A SERIES FOR THIS EPIC ANIMATION THAT NINTENDO HAS DONE SO FAR
This could very well be just the beginning "teaser" to the game. I'm guessing the game will have this as the first level, then comes the battle at alpha.
This would be amazing as a series! Fox is the confident team leader, Falco's the super cocky hotshot, Peppy's the seasoned veteran, and Slippy's the often-ridiculed-but-super-capable little buddy! But seriously, why do some people hate Slippy?
Peppy: HEY!,THIS IS NOT A VACATION! Falco: ALRIGHT! (Playing a video game) Also peppy: AND NO YELLING! ALSO PEPPY: AND WHICH ONE OF YOU BOYS MESSED WITH MY DESK?! My favorite part
The artstyle is so perfect, why isn't this a series already Nintendo? It has a lot of potential, sure modify a bit the voice acting... and do a smoother animation and it's on!
RiastuSama Voices are the same like in the game dude. Or they only sounds like the originals, the fans who made this are very good in it, and they was knowing that game very well, so much details and the voice acting is so harmonic, it need more episodes. :)
3:22: (Falco clears Stage 1) Falco: Alright! Peppy: AND NO YELLING! Us to Peppy: Don't give us orders Fox is right about Peppy, he can be a stick in the mud sometimes
This has the potential to be the best and most faithful video game adaptation into a show. The characters are believable extensions of their SF64 selves.
How come I'm just seeing this now? Also Falco's my favorite character from this short. There needed to be a series for this and various other Nintendo games.
I still wonder why they won’t make this into a series; I’d want them to do that. It’s probably because they don’t have enough money or budget, or maybe not enough people like it. It may have to get a lot more popular before the developers even think of making this into a series.
I love this so much and I really want a whole series out of this. I’ve seen this sentiment a lot in this comment section and I couldn’t agree more. The action is amazing and the character interactions are top notch. You can’t really tell that these guys have known each other for ages and you can see their relationship very well through their interactions. It’s, overall, an amazing short film! 10/10 from me.
Peppy: Wait, hold up (Cut to the scene where Fox, Falco, and the both of us just stands there with our arms crossed) Falco: Does Peppy have to go to the bathroom right before every mission? Fox: (sighs) Us: Really, we spend a whole 30 seconds to a whole minute just for Peppy to used the bathroom
Hey guys! So I just noticed something about that magazine Slippy has over his face at 2:07. You can see words in colored boxes. "Floria" "Aqualiss" "Mecheye" and "Halfmoon." Those are all names of levels from Kirby Super Star, Milky Way Wishes! "Mekkai" was the original spelling as opposed to Mecheye, but still! Awesome nod there!
EDIT: Looked it upon Behind the Voice Actors; It says he is voiced instead by Shannon Torrence (www.behindthevoiceactors.com/shorts/Star-Fox-Zero-The-Battle-Begins/side-by-side/)
Meh. The Style of Animation is more like "Solatorobo: Red the Hunter" or "Tail Concerto" than "Fire Emblem". If you don't know what I'm talking about, google it. (^___^)
Honestly out of every Nintendo franchise star fox has the best potential of being a successful TV show. It’s got a ton of potential storylines and character development
I love how some of the mouth movements are clearly originally for Japanese dialogue. Besides that. This is brilliant. Makes you look forward to the next game.
+M “31Bluestreak” Purefoy Yeah, totally agree, with a bit more mature comedy (I loled at the lucky Pepper fur) they could hire the guy who writes a fox in space straight up and write a series that could actually expand the plot, the characters are more likable in this than I thought they'd be (Though I would use Wolf's persona from AFIS, I can't get enough of his Jim Raynor meets Louis CK) and if AFIS had this quality of animation I think my brain would melt....
+billyhatcher643 even though this movie was actually made and endorsed by nintendo, and Fox in Space is an amateur fan animation that got a copyright strike against it from nintendo. but no, i actually liked Fox in Space more, it was too perfect.
Voldebutt im not surprised that the fox in space got a copyright strike but i like this one better cause it has better acting and better animation and they did it better on this video and i hope it becomes a series if it goes on cartoon network i might watch it but if it comes to nick thatll be better cause i doubt that many people watch cartoon network these days

It was halarious seeing Falco play the old Star Fox game and even just seeing Fox, Slippy, and Peppy all just living ordinary day life's was refreshing and makes us viewers see what their like in there downtime. :) To all the people who made this film, this is a dream come true for Star Fox fans everywhere and thank you from the bottom of our hearts. My only nitpick with the film is that I really wish Krystal was in the game, as I really enjoy her as Fox's wife, and would love to see her interact with the team. 1000 out of 10 Nintendo. :)

Command is confirmed by the developer to be non-canon, so Fox & Krystal aren't actually married.
@@AmyTheBrawlergood thing Starfox Command wasn't canon, because it was full-on TRASH! Starfox Command is, as far as I'm concerned, the worst Starfox game of ALL time. I would consider Command worse than Guard(which really had nothing to do with Starfox whatsoever), just because Command's controls make it downright unplayable.
I'm with you. I'd love to see Krystal return. Though they'd need to age her up, as in Adventures she was 7 years younger than Fox, which would make her about 11 here. ^ ^; I'd be perfectly fine if they were the same age, myself. Would be sweet if they met at the academy.
When the anime short is better than the actual game.
@Zach Plaisted me too
they should make it a series tho
Zach Plaisted i dream about a cross over with star fox and rocket raccon
This is not Anime ._.
@@NecroEddie it clearly is
I think this just may be my favorite voice for Fox. Yeah I like how they got the og from 64 back but, most of his lines delivered today sound so...commercially (mostly because he used to be a radio host) they came off so natural in the original 64. Here, Joe Zieja makes Fox sound brash, fierce, but strong willed and determined, more focused. Perfect for a stern leader.
So Slippy mentioned Planet Sauria at 2:43. That means Dinosaur Planet is still canon, and we may see it again in a new way.
I agree, Bring back Krystal/
We do need Krystal.
Given the fact they were planning to leave Atlas at the end of the Starwolf story in Starl-link, maybe that could be a good entry point for introducing Krystal once more?
Krystal may have stayed there when the great fox left
@@thenewbec8915 Krystal might not have been in Sauria yet. Thats not her home planet.
Peppy: “Do a barrel roll!”
Me: You’ve done me proud, Peppy.
Okay I'm TOTALLY down for this to be a full series. Star Fox is one of my all time favorite under appreciated Nintendo series. I bet a full on anime series would generate some hype and get us some more games for it.
There's this awesome Star Fox fan game called star fox event horizon.
I've never really gotten into the whole Starfox franchise, so the character exposition was really helpful.
This is funnier than I expected...Wouldn't mind seeing a damn full blown anime if it keeps this format.
Such a shame star fox has been forgotten about by Nintendo. This could of been a great idea
I like how it's sort of an anime but not quite
+Jayquoise
Well, it's in fact anime but in a different way.
just some assets and elements from the animation style
vjjetjj
I dunno, this short straight up ripped a page from the new Berserk anime by using cel shaded CGI with traditional anime framerates.
This style's actually become really popular in Japan. Ajin: Demi-human is a good example. Knights of Sidonia is another.
"We are once more in your debt."
You could just pay them.
6:46 "YOU MISSED! HOW COULD YOU MISS?? IT WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU!!!"
LOL.

"Just kidding :D"
"Out of his fur?" Nothing weird in there!" LOL
Juan Francisco Gonzalez Garza WATCH IT!!
Us to Peppy: No need to be pushy
Falco:does peppy have to go to the bathroom right before every mission?
I died at that part
Edit: no joke I forgot this comment existed
Edit 2: still forget it existed
Fox and Us: (sighs)
Slippy: “Their defenses can’t be breached by Andross’s army”
Andross: “It be a damn shame then...”
*ALERT*

The best part XD
Slippy meant "And eat some crab-"

Subtitles aren't working properly.
I am just screaming here with all the references.
B on the Smart Bomb
The "Good Luck" on Fox's intercom when they shoot off
"Do a Barrel Roll!"
It's almost like we could have good cartoon spin-off shows of videogames if the writers truly care.
You heard "Good Luck"? I didn't
@@raijyn2452 Not heard, it was on Arwing's screen.
@@23GreyFox oh. I see it now
And Peppy crashing into the Arwing seat head first which is normally Slippy’s thing
@@arcfurrie4856 Peppy Crashing before Slippy is something that almost never happens outside of Starfox 1
10:16
Falco: Hey, froggy!
Slippy: Don’t call me froggy!
Big the cat: Froggy?
“FWOGGY, there you are”
Sloppy: AAAGHHH NO NO AHHHHH NOOOOOO
why wont they make this a full fledged series? its so uniquely good
+Jamal Richardson i'd watch
+Jamal Richardson Nintendo have so much stuff that they can turn into anime. I'd love to see Star Fox, Kid Icarus, Legend of Zelda and Metroid become anime.
+JediJess1 ikr, and miyamoto got the nerve to say "we don't have plans in starting a tv series with there characters"...selfish thinking i swear
+Squidbee Blockland i'm sorry 😞 my dreams are crushed with you
I couldn't agree with you more. I can get used to this
4:19 Corneria City is under attack!

xD falco always keeps his cool

@@joaocerqeira3508 yup :D
What is your deal? If you wanna get outta here alive...
@@thefoolishgmodcube2644 No I'm serious, is this permanent?
@@joaocerqeira3508 is everyone gonna just forever not learn my name??
Why can't Nintendo just make animes of all of there franchises. Think about it, Starfox, Legend of Zelda, Kid Icarus, Fire Emblem and so. I'm willing to give you money Nintendo, make it happen!!!
I hear they have plans to do animes based off their franchises. I personally want a smash brothers one.
SMASH ANIME IS SOMETHING I HAVE BEEN HOPING FOR SINCE I GOT INTO IT!! =D
Waifu Speedwagon There was a Fire Emblem anime in the 90s, but it got cancelled after only a few episodes (funny thing is, it was localized, while the games weren't)
If there will ever be a legend of Zelda anime, we need to bring back the "Excuuuuuse me, princess!" from the 80's legend of Zelda tv show, or the anime will be not as quality.
Wario anime would be absolutely hilarious.
"its a good luck charm made out of general peppers-"
ball sack
keidran mike nope just his fur
Nothing weird there...
@@knuxiellombardiybur8645 watch it
That sounds like it should be In cards against humanity.
@Sir Embrum49 The Great Moth
Star Fox Abridged reference?
This is like daytime Saturday entertainment for the kids back in the 1990s!
Very cool vibes.
This needs to be a series.
agreed
Fax
step 1: like the video
step 2: add it to your favorites
step 3: keep watching the video, over and over and over...
step 4: show it to your friends
step 5: DEMAND A SERIES FOR THIS EPIC ANIMATION THAT NINTENDO HAS DONE SO FAR
Exactly what I was thinking
i like your thinking.
This could very well be just the beginning "teaser" to the game. I'm guessing the game will have this as the first level, then comes the battle at alpha.
step 6: like the comment you just read, including the answer (this one XD)
Step 7: DO A BARREL ROLL!!!
This would be amazing as a series! Fox is the confident team leader, Falco's the super cocky hotshot, Peppy's the seasoned veteran, and Slippy's the often-ridiculed-but-super-capable little buddy!
But seriously, why do some people hate Slippy?
I know right?! Like seriously, realistically Slippy plays a very important role. He invents stuff and fixes all the crap they break!
This feels like a test run for a full animated series. Considering Nintendo wants to start doing TV series, it wouldn't be too surprising.
6 years later
Jajajaja now Mario has a movie.
10:00 is what everybody came for.
DO A BARREL ROLL!
haha
Actually I came for the music and dogfight starting around 7:22.
"Time for me to dance with the Angels!"
Stargazing Storyteller160 Peppy: Quick Fox, do a barrel roll!
Fox: What?
Peppy: Do a barrel roll!
Fox: Why would I
Peppy: Do a f*%king barrel roll!
I came for the furries.
Peppy: HEY!,THIS IS NOT A VACATION!
Falco: ALRIGHT! (Playing a video game)
Also peppy: AND NO YELLING!
ALSO PEPPY: AND WHICH ONE OF YOU BOYS MESSED WITH MY DESK?!
My favorite part
The artstyle is so perfect, why isn't this a series already Nintendo? It has a lot of potential, sure modify a bit the voice acting... and do a smoother animation and it's on!
RiastuSama Voices are the same like in the game dude. Or they only sounds like the originals, the fans who made this are very good in it, and they was knowing that game very well, so much details and the voice acting is so harmonic, it need more episodes. :)
I blame slippy.
HE SAID: “Cornelia’s defenses are impenetrable!”
*1 second later*
CORNERIA’S UNDER ATTACK!
HE JUST HAD TO JINX IT.
They started attacking before Slippy said anything to be fair.
_Very_ well-timed alert they got there.
This will teach Slippy not to speak too soon
3:22:
(Falco clears Stage 1)
Falco: Alright!
Peppy: AND NO YELLING!
Us to Peppy: Don't give us orders
Fox is right about Peppy, he can be a stick in the mud sometimes
10:16 Don't call him Froggy, the last thing we need is Big The Cat in Starfox.
Lol 😂
Gameplay would consist of advertising fishing games, and pulling Andross' forces out of Aquas.
If this was a series i think the Star fox universe would grow alot more and we get to know the characters even better than we do now!
Vergames 2 lol I’m loving your profile pic
I kind of like that idea also
This has the potential to be the best and most faithful video game adaptation into a show. The characters are believable extensions of their SF64 selves.
"We want to save him, not off him, you crazy tadpole!"
"HEeEeeYYy!"
How come I'm just seeing this now? Also Falco's my favorite character from this short. There needed to be a series for this and various other Nintendo games.
Slippy sounds kind of like Tails and Fox's voice actor in short is MILES better than his voice actor in Smash Bros
His smash bros actor is the same person who voices him in Starfox 64.
Nintendo, make this a series. This would be a cool show.
I think it'd need more frames, but it would be great otherwise.
I would rather watch A Fox In Space. But this is ok too.
The fact that these expert fighter pilots play with wooden building blocks blows me away
I still wonder why they won’t make this into a series; I’d want them to do that. It’s probably because they don’t have enough money or budget, or maybe not enough people like it. It may have to get a lot more popular before the developers even think of making this into a series.
1:46 - 1:51 "The name's fox, Fox McCloud. My father passed away "
I love this so much and I really want a whole series out of this. I’ve seen this sentiment a lot in this comment section and I couldn’t agree more. The action is amazing and the character interactions are top notch. You can’t really tell that these guys have known each other for ages and you can see their relationship very well through their interactions. It’s, overall, an amazing short film! 10/10 from me.
Peppy: Wait, hold up
(Cut to the scene where Fox, Falco, and the both of us just stands there with our arms crossed)
Falco: Does Peppy have to go to the bathroom right before every mission?
Fox: (sighs)
Us: Really, we spend a whole 30 seconds to a whole minute just for Peppy to used the bathroom
I think this is what fans want for the series over an actual game
+TheOneSkitzoGamer Nah we want games too
Hey guys! So I just noticed something about that magazine Slippy has over his face at 2:07. You can see words in colored boxes. "Floria" "Aqualiss" "Mecheye" and "Halfmoon." Those are all names of levels from Kirby Super Star, Milky Way Wishes! "Mekkai" was the original spelling as opposed to Mecheye, but still! Awesome nod there!
It also says current version. Does that mean Corneria gets patches? lol
It also says "Nintendo Magazine" above Corneria.
3:45 “Out of his fur.” “Nothing weird there.” That was the best part
This is cute, and obviously official, but also completely irrelevant now that we have A Fox In Space.
+TheInflicted agreed a fox in space is amazing
no! I just watched it, and it isn't even good!
+Fred Matthews it did suck
+Justin Diaz-Krieg I knew I wasn't the only one!
+Fred Matthews What's wrong with it in your eyes?
Slippy is Tails from the modern Sonic games? And that animation seems similar to Fire Emblems. Pretty darn good.
I thought I actually heard Sonia's voice in the beginning.
I mean sonic
EDIT: Looked it upon Behind the Voice Actors; It says he is voiced instead by Shannon Torrence (www.behindthevoiceactors.com/shorts/Star-Fox-Zero-The-Battle-Begins/side-by-side/)
Meh. The Style of Animation is more like "Solatorobo: Red the Hunter" or "Tail Concerto" than "Fire Emblem". If you don't know what I'm talking about, google it. (^___^)
Falco's yells sound like Link's, too.
Honestly out of every Nintendo franchise star fox has the best potential of being a successful TV show. It’s got a ton of potential storylines and character development
Why can't this be an animated series a live TV stations would kill for something like this
“We wanna save him not off him you crazy tadpole!” Haha awesome.
I love how some of the mouth movements are clearly originally for Japanese dialogue.
Besides that. This is brilliant. Makes you look forward to the next game.
How'd the make Slippy the best character in this? : /
Peppy's thing with Pepper's fur though, that's weird as hell.
The first time i seen it I was thinking something else.
Still think Slippy sounds like Tails, and I find Tails annoying.
Nothing weird there.
If you guys like this, you should watch a fox in space
+M “31Bluestreak” Purefoy I actually just came to this video from that.
+M “31Bluestreak” Purefoy Yeah, totally agree, with a bit more mature comedy (I loled at the lucky Pepper fur) they could hire the guy who writes a fox in space straight up and write a series that could actually expand the plot, the characters are more likable in this than I thought they'd be (Though I would use Wolf's persona from AFIS, I can't get enough of his Jim Raynor meets Louis CK) and if AFIS had this quality of animation I think my brain would melt....
+M “31Bluestreak” Purefoy this would be better cause it has better animation
+billyhatcher643 even though this movie was actually made and endorsed by nintendo, and Fox in Space is an amateur fan animation that got a copyright strike against it from nintendo.
but no, i actually liked Fox in Space more, it was too perfect.
Voldebutt im not surprised that the fox in space got a copyright strike but i like this one better cause it has better acting and better animation and they did it better on this video and i hope it becomes a series if it goes on cartoon network i might watch it but if it comes to nick thatll be better cause i doubt that many people watch cartoon network these days
2:47 Falco's like "hey, that's new"
This HAS to turn into a series. I love it, you love it. Make it happen Nintendo! Or is it platnuim games? What ever just make it happen!
when did zootopia hit the future? XD
AGREED TIMES INFINITY
before you were born probably.
2:19 is Falco playng StarFox SNES!?
Yeah?
