@@chrisbethel7108 Personally, the Star Fox Assault game by Namco on the Gamecube was the game that I would love for them to do more of. People didn't like that fact that you had to leave your R-wing and fight on foot but I loved tha aspect of the game, especially with in pvp mode. That being said, I would by Star-link game based solely on the Star Fox universe. Ubisoft only really sold that game on the Switch and that was because of Star Fox.
To me, StarFox, being one of the few canon series from Nintendo, the story will always be a selling point. I've always dream of a "StarFox: Genesis", where you can play as the original SF team: James, Peppy, and Pigma. Getting to see the events untill its downfall, and how Fox reformed the team, ending with the beginning of the Lylat Wars, Rogue One style.
I would settle for a follow-up to the formula of Star Fox Assault with the branching paths, but dang does Star Fox Mercenary sound like an idea I can get behind.
Yeah, I was hooked on Assault for hours. I don't understand why people disliked it so much. I thought it was great fun! (I actually like it better than Star Fox 1 on the SNES. Star Fox 64 was what turned me into a Star Fox fan.)
@@TheDr502 Assault was interesting for sure The ground mission stuff needs work though, specifically with the controls/mechanics when actually going around shooting stuff when hopping off of the vehicle. Like on-foot gameplay needs improvement(especially the aiming system for that)
Damn that’s pretty spot on from what I want to see the only thing I’d want to that idea is the return of on foot combat from Assualt. Honestly I’d be happy if they went that route not mention they could some characters from the comics.
I'd say balance it with more Arwing missions or multi path missions such as the taste for Katina, Sauria, Corneria and the Aparoid home world where you get 2 or sometimes 3 ways to play via landmaster, on foot or up in the Arwing. Since there are still fans who complain about too much ground missions, that could be a compromise?
Don't forget to add the super smash Brothers move set for foot combat, that would add another unique element in either 3d or 2d platforming (think mario odyssey)
imagine if great fox was a hub world where you could navigate through many planets, asteroid fields, sectors, etc. With dungeon and aircraft missions, upgradable ships/weapons and many routes to take, pleaseNintendo, make it happen!
@@chrisbethel7108 Except actually be able to land on the ship and walk around and intereact with and develop characters, rather than randomly a place in space you have to fly out to for no good reason to progress a few story missions.
The thought of an open world StarFox game is honestly a great idea, it would make StarFox feel like more of a world and an actual place for us, the player, to explore. Allowing the fan base to see the entirety of StarFox and how the team operates, upgrading and moving up making the player feel like he is progressing his team further. Maybe even giving us a few scares on the planet Aqua as we freely explore the planet's depths, maybe even make a mission where we explore a sunken ship. Perhaps the whole hiring of different characters could open up more upgrades or changing the ending depending on who you saved or hired. The possibilities for a StarFox Mercenary game really are endless. I think that it would be pretty cool to have a StarFox game that wouldn't necessarily be us following Fox or at least not as heavily as the other games. I'd like to see a game that's more so of a prequel, allowing us to follow the stories of all the other members of StarFox like Slippy, Falco, Peppy, hell even Wolf would be a neat character for a StarFox game to delve into, showing us a different team entirely. It would even be cool to see Krystal and how her planet got destroyed, her life before going to Dinosaur planet. By the end of the game, they could give us an ending that's pretty much the beginning of the older games. It's just a thought though.
An immersive game would pair well with the story idea I had: A 'civil war' between Venom's new government under Dash Bowman and a massive rebel military force under Andrew Oikonny, with the entire Lylat System caught in the middle. Star Fox gets involved at first by beating back the enemy armies from Corneria, but end up responding to different threats in different locations. I think it would work well with an exploration angle like what Starlink had.
Star fox is an idea with limitless possibilities and opportunities. I really hope Nintendo follows through with another one that shapes it into what it was meant to be.
To add an idea about your starfox mercenary pitch. Why not add a feature where you can train new members by playing as them or have the game go through a in game time clock. Hiring other pilots, bounty hunters if you have a good reputation with that person or certain section of a planet. You can send those trusted/trained pilots to go and tackle the missions themselves but it varies on levels and you can permanently lose these allies if you send them to the wrong battle. I've always loved the starfox series ever since I got my mits on it back in 1995 but being a fan has never been easy because of constant remakes/reboots and sequels that have divided the fanbase. Adventures is a console technical achievement with amazing fur effects at the time, a decent zelda clone. But the babysitting, half of the voice delivery and other things have soured the experience for most people. I still really bloody love SF Assault, it advances the lore, adds more characters (thank god it gets rid of pigma. never been a fan of him), having a unique alien race the aparoids is a nice addition, the local multiplayer is tons of fucking fun and you can tell the Namco staff had alot of fun making these maps, there is so much attentiont to detail for a old gamecube game that it makes me wish I get to read more lore on the culture of some planets or witness some actual events going on with other aliens or civilians. I'm not very good at command, in fact I suck ass at Metroid Hunters, the controls made me give up after I got the first ending in the game, so I just youtubed the entire game and it's one of the weakest games but I've always liked the many weird ways the plot goes depending on what you do. Zero, it played fine for me but it did feel pretty dull going through the same first chapter of the starfox game story. I did like the control style it is pretty unique but... I tried getting my buds to play this and they didn't like it. They gave up super fast cus of the controls.
Great idea, that's exactly what I had in mind, Nintendo should try to improve and expand the other franchises like Star Fox, F-Zero, Metroid, Kid Icarus, and the other series, I mean when was the last time you heard about those games? Star Fox could be a golden opportunity for Nintendo to try something new instead of just giving them another game, why not give them their own show, I mean there are tons of SciFi and anthropomorphitic animals shows, comics, and movies over the years, so it is possible to create a Star Fox show. I was thinking of improving their character designs, personality, give them their own origins, as well as giving them character development as the story goes on, and rewrite the story like in Star Fox Adventures. I wouldn't make Krystal be a damsel in distress when she was trapped in a magic crystal until Fox saves her at the end of the game, I was thinking to make her the main character in the story when she meets Fox for the first time, but she didn't like him at first because he was a stranger on her second home planet and tried to kill him because of misunderstanding, then they work things out, and decided to work together to accomplish their goals while also getting to know each other more.
I would most likely hope for a Star Fox game that has a canon story where the whole team would travel even beyond the Lylat Syatem. The character that I would hope to see return is Krystal, and her a Fox's relationship will unbreakable.
I've thought a lot about how Nintendo could revisit Star Fox. Star Fox is a mercenary crew, so there should be some level of logistics. Upgrades and stuff for the Arwing, Landmaster, and even the great fox would be awesome, and of course hiring new recruits as well. Certain recruits should be better at certain things than others. You'd pick up quests from General Pepper or who ever else. Just like you say in your idea, some of them could be on-rail or all range mode. To keep it in Star Fox fashion, you should still get cool rewards for completing missions in a certain way. Imagine this. You pick up a mission, it's to help Bill and his squad out. You help them out but in keeping as many of his squad from being shot down as possible, he will owe you a favor. From then on any mission you begin will give you the option to call for Bill's help. You finally pick up a mission that you think will be a bit difficult, and from the beginning of the mission you fly in just like always, but this time Bill and his whole squad is there to help in all range mode. If it's a rail mission then maybe his people will swoop in and out randomly to take out bad guys. Sick! There could still be foot missions too, and if you don't like foot missions, you should be able to employ Slippy and Falco to do it for you, at the cost of them not doing it as well as if you did it your self, or maybe they take more of your earnings to do it, while you still fight the Arwing fight. I also imagine an off shoot mode where you fight for control of the map with the cornerian army vs andross or the aparoids or whatever else they want to put. Very reminiscent of 2005 Star Wars Battle Front 2's Galactic Conquest mode, but maybe I'm getting ahead of myself there lol.
Might not be what most fans want to see, but I'd love to see a Mass Effect-style RPG set in the Starfox universe. Sure, it wouldn't really be a Starfox game per say, but it'd be interesting.
I miss the characterization and development from Star Fox Assault. Wolf constantly calling Fox 'pup', for example, or Fox saying 'Wolf...' showing that he cares for him.

Honestly I'd be down for any Star Fox game as long as it isn't another reboot. Don't get me wrong, I love Star Fox 64 it's arguably my favorite game but I want something different.
There’s so much potential for starfox, like a story about the original star Fox team with James Peppy and Pigma. Or even a game about Star wolf and how they came together. Hell command was kinda crap but in one of the endings Fox and Krystal have a son that leads a new starfox team, they could do something with that.
It would be great if they made a new Star Fox game similar to the one you described. Hopefully they at least port all the previous games to the switch. My ideal Star Fox game would be one similar to your idea but with the on foot section from Assault but revamped. The way I would do this would be make it like a mix between Halo and Battle Front 2 (the good one not EA’s abortion). You would be able to do stuff from Halo like duel wielding, using equipment, melee, pick up turrets, and projectile weapons would do damage to armor and health, while energy weapons would do damage to shields. The influences from Battle Front 2 would be the ability to either destroy a ship by taking out chunks from the outside or being inside and destroying vital systems then getting out. There would also be ground and air vehicles in addition to yours you could hijack. Different characters would have different strengths and weaknesses like speed, health, and other things. They would also include the different vehicle transformations from the different games. There would also be a set of power armor that’s used in hazardous areas and augments you. It’s really sad that Nintendo basically killed Star Fox due to shear incompetence. Maybe the future will be in fangames like Star Fox Event Horizon made by UndyingNephilim and this Star Fox Adventures remake made by Esphirian (ruclips.net/video/JGEGPeO_RX0/видео.html). I really hope Nintendo doesn’t murder those two games. It makes me mad that Nintendo butchered Krystal’s character to pander to the Krystal hating audience in Japan. The reason they hate her is because she wasn’t made in Japan which is one of the dumbest reasons to not like a character. That game should not have been the ending to the n64 continuity (we don’t even know which ending is the real one). Star Fox Zero was fun but the motion controls are pretty jarring if you pick up the controller after having not played in a while. It’s disappointing how they just rehashed the same story from 64.
While Star Fox 2, Assault, and Starlink are any of the blueprints I'd like for them to go. With old characters coming back, modern gameplay, a new mission, and online multiplayer. I wonder if a remake of a previous game might be the route the best bet at this point so late of the Switches life cycle. Not SF64, they did that twice kinda, and neither time stuck. The second time with Zero blew it. I'd vote for Assault or Star Fox 2. I'd say 2021 because of the 5 year pattern or 2023 because the 30th anniversary. That being said I like this idea too which seems to have Starlink and Star Fox 2 in mind.
I still say Nintendo should bring StarFox Zero over to Switch and give it normal controls. I'm not saying this because I'm one of the very few folks, out there that actually liked the game, but I think Nintendo can use it basically as a way for folks who aren't familiar with Nintendo's franchises and were introduced to a few of them in Smash. The story is simple enough for newcomers to understand and it covers the Lylat System pretty well. Something that I think that would be pretty neat to see down the line is if they decide to do a prequel for the entire series, focusing on the events of James McCloud, the father of Fox McCloud. I just think that would be pretty cool to see, you know? Maybe getting a deeper understanding of why Andross is the way he is, getting to see Corenia before its present state, etc. After that, Nintendo should do a "StarFox Mercenary" either in-house or better yet with Ubisoft since they're close with the Big N and despite the mixed reception that Starlink got, they did pay attention to the lore of the series, some of which Nintendo didn't even touch on with past games (but I still don't understand why Ubisoft just didn't make it a Switch exclusive because of the StarFox stuff in the Switch version)
Loved starfox zero. Currently playing 2 player with the wife in the cockpit.... not easy but loads of fun. Just played through Starfox 2, would love to see a 3D remake of this. The real time aspect is great and for 1996 was pretty impressive for the snes.
I would love to see the next Star Fox be similar to Adventures, Assault, & Star Link. I really enjoy the single story line in those games. Plus, being able to run around on foot and hop in/out of vehicles whenever you wanted - I mean, that’s pretty much everything I ever hoped for in a Star Fox game. I think they could ditch the rail system with the air combat too - the ability to fly in any direction you want like in Star Link is just way cooler!
Well, if they would stop rebooting for the sixteenth time, I would take a little bit of MGSV and mix it with SF: Assault and Star Link. Being able to explore planets, get out on foot, and of course, on rails and "all range mode" flight missions. The Star Fox team would have expanded and hired more people, slowly growing into an army that freelances to the usual employer. You can manage people and resources, and this could mean that there is a steady feed of missions to enjoy.
Star Fox; Mercenary is an interesting idea, although it might get repetitive. I feel it should play more like Mass Effect 1: There are specific story missions on specific planets (the rail missions), and there are other explorable worlds with side missions. Depending on the world will determine the vehicles available to explore in. There should also be a few hub areas to explore on foot. Although my dream star fox game is a telltale-style adventure game starring James McCloud when he goes to investigate Venom and gets betrayed by Pigma.
Your idea at the end isn't what my ideal StarFox game would be, but I'll be damned if I wouldn't play it and enjoy it. I always thought there needed to be a lot more focus on the characters who aren't Fox McCloud. The fact that there are so many great characters but you only get to play them in two games in the story modes is just criminal.
I'm down with this idea....but we NEED to see Fox and Falco use Melee combos and shine when they're in the ground so we can say "ahahah...Smash Bros" lol XD
I really wish Star Fox Assault was remastered - or that there was a direct sequel with additional content. Star Fox Assault with updated content, perhaps including online multiplayer would surely receive the positive ratings for which Nintendo is clamoring.
Would be interesting is Star Wolf levelled with your team as you upgraded and expanded it, perhaps introducing new characters and bringing back old ones like you said, maybe even picking up people you don’t hire.
I would love to see a new Star Fox game but rail shooters are dead. Maybe a brief homage but they could take this franchise into soooooo many directions!!! We ❤️ Star Fox!!!!!!
Star Fox Mercenary sounds great! Add in budgeting for Arwing, Landmaster, Blue Marine, and on-foot weapon/armor upgrading/customization and you have my vision of an ideal Star Fox game which I dubbed Star Fox Forces.
I would like a Star Fox game that is open world I think that if Nintendo made it similar to Breath if the Wild where Fox can explore planets outside of his Arwing and walk around on the surface and maybe bring back some of the older planets that were in the other games like dinosaur planet I think that would be cool and it might bring Star Fox popularity back.
Oh and a prequel with original star fox crew would be sick! Young peppy action. Pigma betraying them at the end. Some good backstory lore is needed desperately for the series. Too much potential to not explore stuff like that.
No walkers. No transforming. Arwing can already hover, and they have a tank for ground missions. Otherwise really good idea, they are literally mercenaries so it's fitting.
ok, so i feel like this would put some people off. Personally what I'd like to see is a game that's a continuation of Assault's gameplay. The main mode would involve a two part story where you create a character to be the newest member of either Star Fox or Star Wolf. As you progress you could level up your stats that would unlock more things you could do (like unlocking flight maneuvers when you put points in the piloting skill). The main story would involve the events from your chosen team's perspective as well as run in's with the opposing team. But the true ending would unlock after completing both sides of the story, like what Sonic Adventure 2 did. I think the Create-a-Character thing could also translate into online multiplayer.
still love bayonetta 2's easter egg being what got platinum games to work on star fox zero.(meaning fox mcloud has the sexy umbran witch to somewhat partly thank for his renewal.:3) for the next star fox would love a mix of assault(with improved control) & 2 letting you fully explore planets with multiple playable characters(that you could recruit in mission/sidequest like 2's characters including the scrapped ones or even new characters.) alongside on rails arwing mode making the plot about star wolf using andross's portal technology(starlink did feel like it was showing wolf's individual threat/showing assault's plot point of andrew & pigma leaving in zero.) while fox has a personal arc looking for his father(since he's alive in zero just in another dimension like snes.) and bringing krystal back(since they do have interest in bringing her back just do more with her psychic abilities/not have her replace peppy.)/maybe bringing the aparoids as ancient machines from venom's ruins that andross experimented on unleashing after his death.
Starlink had some potential, and I played it through to basically 100%, but to have that type of open solar system come back, I would really like for it to have alot more depth to it. There needs to be actual locations to visit, like cities or special landmarks. Give the player a bit more of a stragetic system to employ defense systems and build up resources, Starlink sort of did that, but it didn't make alot of difference what you built or where, give the player the ability to dispatch allies and hire defense forces. Starfox 2 showed they wanted to do somethingl ike that, but in star fox 2, there is like 5 little locations that are as simple as push a button and blow thing up, or dog fight sections that lasted all of 10 seconds. Little short activities can be sufficient if there is something else backing them up in between them. There is actually just so much that can be done in that regard, and it's something nintendo has shown they are interested in trying or have been in the past. I do like the idea of mixing in classic levels in the open world. Why not mix both game types, such as there could be a normal campaign mode and a sort of Conquest mode that would be a war for the Lylat system kidna how Dynasty Warrior Conquest games have. Idk just throwing ideas out there. or lean out of the strategy elements and more into a Mercanaries direction, and make it like a Bethesda style open world game with space ships and dog fighting, but where your actions and who you side with can determine the outcome of the story.
How about a STAR FOX MOVIE?!!! If this new upcoming Super Mario Bros movie is successful then hopefully it'll give Nintendo and Illumination the boost to make a new Star Fox movie or series next.
When it comes to a new starfox game I like the bases of Star Fox M. Being able to play as other characters, pilot other ships, exploring planets both in a vertical and on foot. Of course on rails and dogfighting being done with racing as something to do on the side. Didn't touch story but with an open world we can not only explore and learn more about the planets but also the characters. Starlink and Assault had added layers to there characters with unique dialog but do to Assaults short run time and starlink not being a starfox game Didn't have enough time to go deeper and look at other characters. Imagine a series of side missions offered by various characters. For example you can talk to Bill who could be found on corneria, Katina, or on the great fox and he'll offer a series of missions dubbed "Bull Dog Missions". You'll join Bill on missions throughout lylat that are dogfighting centric (for obvious reasons). After completing them you are rewarded the ability to play as Bill along with his ship.
My idea is VERY similar to yours. Great Fox and Corneria would be hubs/safe havens. There would be a system like Mass Effect where you have “paragon” and “renegade” options to mold Fox as you like. You can explore planets as well as do missions on them (like you stated) and you can have a love interest for Fox (Krystal, Fay, come to mind). Also, have more of a story line for Star Wolf. I like “A Fox in Space” and their take on Fara Phoenix who is Wolf’s girlfriend (she was Fox’s love interest in the Nintendo Power Comic from 1993). And then Venom... make it like the suicide mission in Mass Effect 2. But every so often have a mission that lets you quietly explore Venom before your fight with Andross... who I think needs to be like he is portrayed in “A Fox in Space”.
Star Fox 2 would have worked out fine been released in 95 early 96. Gameplay wise it would have been pretty unique. Only concern might be Frame Rate. Nintendo 64 had a few delays. Both the GameCube games were unique and good. Some co-op StarFox missions would be good. 🤔🛸🦊🐦🐸🐇
I love the pitch for Star Fox Mercenary! Though if i could add one thing, i'd love to see a return to the infantry missions Assault provided, with all the different characters having different playstyles and having different guns/gadgets to pick up! Just gotta change the tank controls to something more modern and bam, we could have a really solid Star Fox game!
I just want a new star fox game with the same mechanics and play style as Star Fox 64 with new gen graphics. I loved that game it was a staple of my childhood
Some multiplayer missions will be good idea as well Co-op campaigns are fun. They could use the melee combat from star Fox Adventures obviously expand on it.
If hope Nintendo doesn’t get rid of Krystal and make Starfox Zero Deluxe (deleting or putting motion controls optional) and Starfox Adventures HD (and maybe Assault HD)
i think you hit the nail on the head. id love it. hell we could even include races both ground and flight based as OPTIONAL quests and customize our ships with gear or even get under the hood with like new boosters and engines and such. give slippy some actual developement so we dont hate him as much maybe? but when i say on land., in one of those timelines it kinda made canon that the F-zero series is in the same universe so why not explore that a bit? and nintendo was suposedly working on making starfox in the same universe as metroid so why not make that a thing?
The game idea is good, I had it too, but it still is just shoehorning in the arcadey Star Fox formula that nobbody seems capable of bringing beyong the mastery in 64. Rather than Star Fox, I would evolve Starlink into an F-Zero game. Start with a full F-Zero GX system that in the lore is jsut a computer simulation, and a level editor. Then you can spend win earnings from those races to drop onto Starlink planets, and like missions on Monster Hunter or Death Stranding you will build those racetracks on perilous planets according to the plans in level editor. The idea is that racing is illegal, and when you go planetside your main goal is to do repetitive tasks farming armor and crafting options. These behaviours will be aggregated among all players, and used as the basis of actual canon new set of some 60ish new F-Zero characters, kinda the same way Kojima games aggregated nuclear disarmament or terrain development. If a thousand people all dress up as Boba Fett and go around wreaking havoc, chances are that the game recognizes the combination of Boba Fett armor as "the correct" use of that equoipment and the character as a havoc wreaker. This will circulate in the game world as the rumored identity of that character. Then at regular "splatfests", devs can release hype trailers and character reveals and this whole WWF-style face-heel dynamic and cutscenes, all based on actual popular ways people have played the game. It could be hype on the level of smash reveals.
I love your idea for Star Fox Mercenary. That's the kind of game I want. Have it start after the Emperor Anglur ending of Command. Star Fox disbands, Star Wolf thrives, Venom starts to take over under the command of Dash. Fox must once again fight for Corneria, while trying to unite his team and win Krystal's forgiveness
I grew up on playing star fox on my Nintendo 64, and I still think that it is the best game of the whole franchise and just you mentioned it, it is because of its amazing storytelling. Good video man 👌🏻
Ok if i were doing a star fox mercanary game it start like this. Set 5 years after the events of lylat wars team star fox has disbanded due to lack of stable work. But with a new threat emerging its up to fox to rebuild his team and save the lylat system once again.
Man. They aint never going to make another starfox game. And if they do, its going to be really small. Or just not what we really want. But hey, at least I got my closure with StarFox Zero
Zero was the closest thing we got to a real starfox sequel,so I agree with you on that,if anything port it to the switch and get rid of the gyro controls.
I like your idea, just hope that it can incorporate Assault's gameplay styles. With better controls, of course, but I loved Assault's gameplay. Also, maybe you can upgrade your gear, vehicles and weapons on the fly (another RUclipsr named NickOnPlanetRipple pitched a similar idea). Assault was, as one other YTer said, primed for perfection. If it were longer, it would have been received much better.
I've got an Idea for a Game that I've been working on for Years. But if I could get in contact with Nintendo, then I'd be set to make this Idea come to life.
I want a freaking next gen third person rail shooter. Honestly it’s the best genre no one ever buys. I want to get popular because the games are like a roller coaster ride
Star fox remaster. 64/Assault remake by Platinum/Zero from Wii U. I know how hard this would be but it's an instant buy for me. Assault with proper online multi-player with proper controls would be a blast.
The game idea I had was one that stared Fox's (and Krystal's) son, Marcus McCloud and his new Star Fox team in Star Fox GT. The game would involve playing though multiple missions on different planets, and possibly as different characters. Wolf also had a son named Vermilion O'Donnel who formed his own Star Wolf trio that Marcus would come across. The big bad of the game is a criminal organization that consists of a race of humanoid-cyborg like aliens that threaten to exterminate all life throughout the Lylat system and make it their own empire. The gameplay would involve using different vehicles in certain missions, mostly the arwing, with some Landmaster and Blue Marine and On-foot missions. Marcus and his new Starfox team defeat the evil organization and save not only the Lylat System, but the galaxy as well. I might write more lore on somewhere like Wattapad sometime.
If we could play as the other starfox members and choose which one to play as for each mission or if they had their own unique story/levels to play as would be cool.
Here's what happens in the new StarFox game that i imagine! Yeah of course Krystal is going back since she appears only in the franchise games Peppy decided to go back fly on his Arwing with Fox, Falco, Slippy and Krystal Bill, Katt, Amanda, Lucy and Dash gonna returned Marcus (Fox and Krystal's son) gonna appears and he gonna have two little sisters (a young girl and a baby) Andrew decided to go back on the StarWolf team Wolf gonna revived Pigma as a cyborg and he gonna rehired him Andross returned since he was the main antagonist of StarFox And last to finish this! Miyu and Faye (from the cancelled sequel of the SNES game) gonna appears
Corrr ... sign me up ... I'm well and truly in on this idea!! Would love to see the story continue from the end of Assault though! Maybe the rewards from the jobs can go towards weapons and vehicles like you say but also go towards building a new, bigger and better Great Fox seeing as it was destroyed at the end of Assault 🤔 really wish Nintendo would do more with StarFox; it had and still has so much potential!!!!
Unpopular opinion: Assault & Adventures were the best Star Fox games & actually progressed the series forward. It was the crybaby 64 fanboys who kept wanting rehashes of the same game & that’s what ruined the series.
All I would like to see that you get a chance to play with all the different team mates and do the mission with like a different skill set. Also the team needs to be more involved in everything
I would make a prequel, where you play as Ace Vulpes, a new recruit to the Star Fox Team, when it was James McCloud in command. You’d fly alongside Peppy, James, and Pigma as they are hired to tackle a group of space pirates terrorizing the people of the Lylat System… ultimately pursuing them to the barren planet, Venom, where a scientist has coincidentally been exiled. The story would show Pigma betraying the team, leaving the other 3 at the mercy of the Pirate leader and his benefactor… Andross. James and Ace perish creating a diversion, buying Peppy enough time to escape and warn the Cornerian army about Andross building up a massive invasion force. You’d then play as Peppy when escaping Venom, and in the epilogue taking place during the Lylat War (when Fox, Slippy, and Falco comprise the team with Peppy)… after defending Corneria, Peppy breaks formation when he sees the Pirate leader, now one of Andross’ generals, and endeavors to avenge Ace by taking him down once and for all.
This idea is pretty much exactly what i pictured the next Star Fox game looking like (only less Ubisoft reuse of assets and repetitive missions). The one thing i would add would be additional on foot sections. Similar to the on rail sections you travel to specific area's to undergo these quests. I imagine these sections playing like Zelda meets Mass Effect, where Fox can freely swap between using a blaster for ranged combat or a staff (like in Adventures) for close quarters melee combat. Unfortunately the big thing I see holding these expansive Star Fox games from happening is that it would be an expensive endevour. If ever there was a time to make it happen it's now since the Switch is insanely popular.

Personally, I would love to see the StarLink team make a full-on starfox game.
Yup. It's the best starfox game to date
@@chrisbethel7108 Hell no. It's really good and definitely like top 3, but I wouldn't say it's the best
Agreed. Star Fox is great but Nintendo seems to not really know how to handle it anymore
@@chrisbethel7108 Personally, the Star Fox Assault game by Namco on the Gamecube was the game that I would love for them to do more of. People didn't like that fact that you had to leave your R-wing and fight on foot but I loved tha aspect of the game, especially with in pvp mode. That being said, I would by Star-link game based solely on the Star Fox universe. Ubisoft only really sold that game on the Switch and that was because of Star Fox.
Mmmm that could work.....maybe
To me, StarFox, being one of the few canon series from Nintendo, the story will always be a selling point. I've always dream of a "StarFox: Genesis", where you can play as the original SF team: James, Peppy, and Pigma. Getting to see the events untill its downfall, and how Fox reformed the team, ending with the beginning of the Lylat Wars, Rogue One style.
Star Fox all day
You are a genius!

I would settle for a follow-up to the formula of Star Fox Assault with the branching paths, but dang does Star Fox Mercenary sound like an idea I can get behind.
Amen!
@fox_mccloud.64
Assault is underrated, Command is not good, and Star Fox 2 is actually great.
Assault is criminally underrated. Command is a dumpster fire, and the characters from SF Assault and SF 2 should combine
Yeah, I was hooked on Assault for hours. I don't understand why people disliked it so much. I thought it was great fun!
(I actually like it better than Star Fox 1 on the SNES. Star Fox 64 was what turned me into a Star Fox fan.)
What are you talking about? Command is a good game, not the best in the series, but still a good game.
I loved Assault too!
@@TheDr502 Assault was interesting for sure
The ground mission stuff needs work though, specifically with the controls/mechanics when actually going around shooting stuff when hopping off of the vehicle. Like on-foot gameplay needs improvement(especially the aiming system for that)
I didn't realize how much I'd love an open world Starfox game until you talked about the supposed Starfox Mercenary. Come on Nintendoooo.
Damn that’s pretty spot on from what I want to see the only thing I’d want to that idea is the return of on foot combat from Assualt. Honestly I’d be happy if they went that route not mention they could some characters from the comics.
I'd say balance it with more Arwing missions or multi path missions such as the taste for Katina, Sauria, Corneria and the Aparoid home world where you get 2 or sometimes 3 ways to play via landmaster, on foot or up in the Arwing.
Since there are still fans who complain about too much ground missions, that could be a compromise?
Don't forget to add the super smash Brothers move set for foot combat, that would add another unique element in either 3d or 2d platforming (think mario odyssey)
imagine if great fox was a hub world where you could navigate through many planets, asteroid fields, sectors, etc. With dungeon and aircraft missions, upgradable ships/weapons and many routes to take, pleaseNintendo, make it happen!
You mean starlink:battle for atlantis on switch?
@@chrisbethel7108 Possibly everything we wanted for Star Fox despite not being an official Star Fox game!
@fox_mccloud.64
@@chrisbethel7108 Except actually be able to land on the ship and walk around and intereact with and develop characters, rather than randomly a place in space you have to fly out to for no good reason to progress a few story missions.
The thought of an open world StarFox game is honestly a great idea, it would make StarFox feel like more of a world and an actual place for us, the player, to explore. Allowing the fan base to see the entirety of StarFox and how the team operates, upgrading and moving up making the player feel like he is progressing his team further. Maybe even giving us a few scares on the planet Aqua as we freely explore the planet's depths, maybe even make a mission where we explore a sunken ship. Perhaps the whole hiring of different characters could open up more upgrades or changing the ending depending on who you saved or hired. The possibilities for a StarFox Mercenary game really are endless.
I think that it would be pretty cool to have a StarFox game that wouldn't necessarily be us following Fox or at least not as heavily as the other games. I'd like to see a game that's more so of a prequel, allowing us to follow the stories of all the other members of StarFox like Slippy, Falco, Peppy, hell even Wolf would be a neat character for a StarFox game to delve into, showing us a different team entirely. It would even be cool to see Krystal and how her planet got destroyed, her life before going to Dinosaur planet. By the end of the game, they could give us an ending that's pretty much the beginning of the older games. It's just a thought though.
The Legend of Peppy: Breath of the StarFox
An immersive game would pair well with the story idea I had:
A 'civil war' between Venom's new government under Dash Bowman and a massive rebel military force under Andrew Oikonny, with the entire Lylat System caught in the middle.
Star Fox gets involved at first by beating back the enemy armies from Corneria, but end up responding to different threats in different locations.
I think it would work well with an exploration angle like what Starlink had.
Star fox is an idea with limitless possibilities and opportunities. I really hope Nintendo follows through with another one that shapes it into what it was meant to be.
Facts
To add an idea about your starfox mercenary pitch.
Why not add a feature where you can train new members by playing as them or have the game go through a in game time clock. Hiring other pilots, bounty hunters if you have a good reputation with that person or certain section of a planet.
You can send those trusted/trained pilots to go and tackle the missions themselves but it varies on levels and you can permanently lose these allies if you send them to the wrong battle.
I've always loved the starfox series ever since I got my mits on it back in 1995 but being a fan has never been easy because of constant remakes/reboots and sequels that have divided the fanbase.
Adventures is a console technical achievement with amazing fur effects at the time, a decent zelda clone. But the babysitting, half of the voice delivery and other things have soured the experience for most people.
I still really bloody love SF Assault, it advances the lore, adds more characters (thank god it gets rid of pigma. never been a fan of him), having a unique alien race the aparoids is a nice addition, the local multiplayer is tons of fucking fun and you can tell the Namco staff had alot of fun making these maps, there is so much attentiont to detail for a old gamecube game that it makes me wish I get to read more lore on the culture of some planets or witness some actual events going on with other aliens or civilians.
I'm not very good at command, in fact I suck ass at Metroid Hunters, the controls made me give up after I got the first ending in the game, so I just youtubed the entire game and it's one of the weakest games but I've always liked the many weird ways the plot goes depending on what you do.
Zero, it played fine for me but it did feel pretty dull going through the same first chapter of the starfox game story. I did like the control style it is pretty unique but... I tried getting my buds to play this and they didn't like it. They gave up super fast cus of the controls.
Great idea, that's exactly what I had in mind, Nintendo should try to improve and expand the other franchises like Star Fox, F-Zero, Metroid, Kid Icarus, and the other series, I mean when was the last time you heard about those games? Star Fox could be a golden opportunity for Nintendo to try something new instead of just giving them another game, why not give them their own show, I mean there are tons of SciFi and anthropomorphitic animals shows, comics, and movies over the years, so it is possible to create a Star Fox show. I was thinking of improving their character designs, personality, give them their own origins, as well as giving them character development as the story goes on, and rewrite the story like in Star Fox Adventures. I wouldn't make Krystal be a damsel in distress when she was trapped in a magic crystal until Fox saves her at the end of the game, I was thinking to make her the main character in the story when she meets Fox for the first time, but she didn't like him at first because he was a stranger on her second home planet and tried to kill him because of misunderstanding, then they work things out, and decided to work together to accomplish their goals while also getting to know each other more.
I would most likely hope for a Star Fox game that has a canon story where the whole team would travel even beyond the Lylat Syatem. The character that I would hope to see return is Krystal, and her a Fox's relationship will unbreakable.
I would like to see krystal bill grey and panther come back. As well as new star fox amiibos.
I would most like hope for Krystal to return.
Holy shit, NINTENDO PLEASE LISTEN TO THIS DUDE. WE NEED THIS GAME.
This is the best idea I've heard proposed! I hope Nintendo's listening >.> (and please create deeper storytelling like Assault and Adventure)
Short version
Nintendo: The on-rails action of SNES and 64 was purely a hardware limitation.
Fans: Give us more SNES and 64-style levels.
Follow-Up: Okay, that's a pretty great pitch from John. This is well worth watching for.
I've thought a lot about how Nintendo could revisit Star Fox. Star Fox is a mercenary crew, so there should be some level of logistics. Upgrades and stuff for the Arwing, Landmaster, and even the great fox would be awesome, and of course hiring new recruits as well. Certain recruits should be better at certain things than others.
You'd pick up quests from General Pepper or who ever else. Just like you say in your idea, some of them could be on-rail or all range mode. To keep it in Star Fox fashion, you should still get cool rewards for completing missions in a certain way. Imagine this.
You pick up a mission, it's to help Bill and his squad out. You help them out but in keeping as many of his squad from being shot down as possible, he will owe you a favor. From then on any mission you begin will give you the option to call for Bill's help. You finally pick up a mission that you think will be a bit difficult, and from the beginning of the mission you fly in just like always, but this time Bill and his whole squad is there to help in all range mode. If it's a rail mission then maybe his people will swoop in and out randomly to take out bad guys. Sick!
There could still be foot missions too, and if you don't like foot missions, you should be able to employ Slippy and Falco to do it for you, at the cost of them not doing it as well as if you did it your self, or maybe they take more of your earnings to do it, while you still fight the Arwing fight.
I also imagine an off shoot mode where you fight for control of the map with the cornerian army vs andross or the aparoids or whatever else they want to put. Very reminiscent of 2005 Star Wars Battle Front 2's Galactic Conquest mode, but maybe I'm getting ahead of myself there lol.
I agree Star Fox Mercenary sounds like an idea that I can also get behind and would love to see happen in the Star Fox series.
Love your pitch for a new Star Fox game. I hope one day Nintendo will make or get someone else like Ubisoft to make a game like that
With the release of Star Wars Squadrons maybe Star Fox can adopt some of that gameplay
I have to get this message out there, this is far by one of my favorite vids. Im so happy there's a lot of big fans out there in this comment section
Might not be what most fans want to see, but I'd love to see a Mass Effect-style RPG set in the Starfox universe. Sure, it wouldn't really be a Starfox game per say, but it'd be interesting.
I miss the characterization and development from Star Fox Assault. Wolf constantly calling Fox 'pup', for example, or Fox saying 'Wolf...' showing that he cares for him.
13:51
It's from Wario Ware Smooth Moves.
Y'know, that weird one on the Wii.
Nintendo should try to improve and expand the other franchises like Star Fox, F-Zero, Metroid, Kid Icarus, and the other series, I mean when was the last time you heard about those games?

Interesting that the next star fox game we got was actually an old one, the Adventure Beta.
Fantastic! I hope nintendo sees this!
Honestly I'd be down for any Star Fox game as long as it isn't another reboot. Don't get me wrong, I love Star Fox 64 it's arguably my favorite game but I want something different.
Star fox assault is the best star fox game from a gameplay perspective
There’s so much potential for starfox, like a story about the original star Fox team with James Peppy and Pigma. Or even a game about Star wolf and how they came together. Hell command was kinda crap but in one of the endings Fox and Krystal have a son that leads a new starfox team, they could do something with that.
I want another star fox assault style game with more character development and off rails gameplay. Also an online multiplayer
It would be great if they made a new Star Fox game similar to the one you described. Hopefully they at least port all the previous games to the switch.
My ideal Star Fox game would be one similar to your idea but with the on foot section from Assault but revamped. The way I would do this would be make it like a mix between Halo and Battle Front 2 (the good one not EA’s abortion). You would be able to do stuff from Halo like duel wielding, using equipment, melee, pick up turrets, and projectile weapons would do damage to armor and health, while energy weapons would do damage to shields. The influences from Battle Front 2 would be the ability to either destroy a ship by taking out chunks from the outside or being inside and destroying vital systems then getting out. There would also be ground and air vehicles in addition to yours you could hijack. Different characters would have different strengths and weaknesses like speed, health, and other things. They would also include the different vehicle transformations from the different games. There would also be a set of power armor that’s used in hazardous areas and augments you.
It’s really sad that Nintendo basically killed Star Fox due to shear incompetence. Maybe the future will be in fangames like Star Fox Event Horizon made by UndyingNephilim and this Star Fox Adventures remake made by Esphirian (ruclips.net/video/JGEGPeO_RX0/видео.html). I really hope Nintendo doesn’t murder those two games.
It makes me mad that Nintendo butchered Krystal’s character to pander to the Krystal hating audience in Japan. The reason they hate her is because she wasn’t made in Japan which is one of the dumbest reasons to not like a character. That game should not have been the ending to the n64 continuity (we don’t even know which ending is the real one).
Star Fox Zero was fun but the motion controls are pretty jarring if you pick up the controller after having not played in a while. It’s disappointing how they just rehashed the same story from 64.
While Star Fox 2, Assault, and Starlink are any of the blueprints I'd like for them to go. With old characters coming back, modern gameplay, a new mission, and online multiplayer. I wonder if a remake of a previous game might be the route the best bet at this point so late of the Switches life cycle. Not SF64, they did that twice kinda, and neither time stuck. The second time with Zero blew it. I'd vote for Assault or Star Fox 2. I'd say 2021 because of the 5 year pattern or 2023 because the 30th anniversary. That being said I like this idea too which seems to have Starlink and Star Fox 2 in mind.
I still say Nintendo should bring StarFox Zero over to Switch and give it normal controls. I'm not saying this because I'm one of the very few folks, out there that actually liked the game, but I think Nintendo can use it basically as a way for folks who aren't familiar with Nintendo's franchises and were introduced to a few of them in Smash. The story is simple enough for newcomers to understand and it covers the Lylat System pretty well.
Something that I think that would be pretty neat to see down the line is if they decide to do a prequel for the entire series, focusing on the events of James McCloud, the father of Fox McCloud. I just think that would be pretty cool to see, you know? Maybe getting a deeper understanding of why Andross is the way he is, getting to see Corenia before its present state, etc.
After that, Nintendo should do a "StarFox Mercenary" either in-house or better yet with Ubisoft since they're close with the Big N and despite the mixed reception that Starlink got, they did pay attention to the lore of the series, some of which Nintendo didn't even touch on with past games (but I still don't understand why Ubisoft just didn't make it a Switch exclusive because of the StarFox stuff in the Switch version)
Loved starfox zero. Currently playing 2 player with the wife in the cockpit.... not easy but loads of fun. Just played through Starfox 2, would love to see a 3D remake of this. The real time aspect is great and for 1996 was pretty impressive for the snes.
Just get Starlink: battle for Atlantis on switch. It's the starfox game we've needed
@@chrisbethel7108
That not many folks liked or have completely forgotten about
Gosh..
Enhanced StarLink gameplay with Mass Effect type narrative and story.
I'm sold
Star Fox has so much potential it's a pity Nintendo simply uses it to try and force their "inovations" on the players. I'm looking at you Wii Mote 😡
I would love to see the next Star Fox be similar to Adventures, Assault, & Star Link. I really enjoy the single story line in those games. Plus, being able to run around on foot and hop in/out of vehicles whenever you wanted - I mean, that’s pretty much everything I ever hoped for in a Star Fox game. I think they could ditch the rail system with the air combat too - the ability to fly in any direction you want like in Star Link is just way cooler!
Oh yeah, one last thing - bring back that incredible soundtrack from Star Fox Assault! Seriously, it was amazing!
Well, if they would stop rebooting for the sixteenth time, I would take a little bit of MGSV and mix it with SF: Assault and Star Link. Being able to explore planets, get out on foot, and of course, on rails and "all range mode" flight missions. The Star Fox team would have expanded and hired more people, slowly growing into an army that freelances to the usual employer. You can manage people and resources, and this could mean that there is a steady feed of missions to enjoy.
It's nice to hear Star Fox Command music used :)
Star Fox; Mercenary is an interesting idea, although it might get repetitive. I feel it should play more like Mass Effect 1: There are specific story missions on specific planets (the rail missions), and there are other explorable worlds with side missions. Depending on the world will determine the vehicles available to explore in. There should also be a few hub areas to explore on foot.
Although my dream star fox game is a telltale-style adventure game starring James McCloud when he goes to investigate Venom and gets betrayed by Pigma.
Your idea at the end isn't what my ideal StarFox game would be, but I'll be damned if I wouldn't play it and enjoy it.
I always thought there needed to be a lot more focus on the characters who aren't Fox McCloud. The fact that there are so many great characters but you only get to play them in two games in the story modes is just criminal.
I can't wait to see 30 years of Star Fox for next year.
I'm down with this idea....but we NEED to see Fox and Falco use Melee combos and shine when they're in the ground so we can say "ahahah...Smash Bros" lol XD
I think utilizing the Great Fox as a main (walkable) hub between missions would be fun. Like Starcraft 2 Wings of Liberty or Ratchet and Clank.
I really wish Star Fox Assault was remastered - or that there was a direct sequel with additional content. Star Fox Assault with updated content, perhaps including online multiplayer would surely receive the positive ratings for which Nintendo is clamoring.
This is really cool, man! Sadly i dont have Nintendo's consoles, but i love this series=^_^=
Would be interesting is Star Wolf levelled with your team as you upgraded and expanded it, perhaps introducing new characters and bringing back old ones like you said, maybe even picking up people you don’t hire.
I would love to see a new Star Fox game but rail shooters are dead. Maybe a brief homage but they could take this franchise into soooooo many directions!!! We ❤️ Star Fox!!!!!!
Star Fox Mercenary sounds great! Add in budgeting for Arwing, Landmaster, Blue Marine, and on-foot weapon/armor upgrading/customization and you have my vision of an ideal Star Fox game which I dubbed Star Fox Forces.
I would like a Star Fox game that is open world I think that if Nintendo made it similar to Breath if the Wild where Fox can explore planets outside of his Arwing and walk around on the surface and maybe bring back some of the older planets that were in the other games like dinosaur planet I think that would be cool and it might bring Star Fox popularity back.
Oh and a prequel with original star fox crew would be sick! Young peppy action. Pigma betraying them at the end. Some good backstory lore is needed desperately for the series. Too much potential to not explore stuff like that.
No walkers. No transforming. Arwing can already hover, and they have a tank for ground missions. Otherwise really good idea, they are literally mercenaries so it's fitting.
ok, so i feel like this would put some people off. Personally what I'd like to see is a game that's a continuation of Assault's gameplay. The main mode would involve a two part story where you create a character to be the newest member of either Star Fox or Star Wolf. As you progress you could level up your stats that would unlock more things you could do (like unlocking flight maneuvers when you put points in the piloting skill). The main story would involve the events from your chosen team's perspective as well as run in's with the opposing team. But the true ending would unlock after completing both sides of the story, like what Sonic Adventure 2 did. I think the Create-a-Character thing could also translate into online multiplayer.
All right who do we show this video in Nintendo to pitch the idea for Star Fox Mercenary?
still love bayonetta 2's easter egg being what got platinum games to work on star fox zero.(meaning fox mcloud has the sexy umbran witch to somewhat partly thank for his renewal.:3)
for the next star fox would love a mix of assault(with improved control) & 2 letting you fully explore planets with multiple playable characters(that you could recruit in mission/sidequest like 2's characters including the scrapped ones or even new characters.) alongside on rails arwing mode making the plot about star wolf using andross's portal technology(starlink did feel like it was showing wolf's individual threat/showing assault's plot point of andrew & pigma leaving in zero.) while fox has a personal arc looking for his father(since he's alive in zero just in another dimension like snes.) and bringing krystal back(since they do have interest in bringing her back just do more with her psychic abilities/not have her replace peppy.)/maybe bringing the aparoids as ancient machines from venom's ruins that andross experimented on unleashing after his death.
You mentioned the black hole, but not the secret out the dimension course. Paper plans attacking you haha
Starlink had some potential, and I played it through to basically 100%, but to have that type of open solar system come back, I would really like for it to have alot more depth to it. There needs to be actual locations to visit, like cities or special landmarks. Give the player a bit more of a stragetic system to employ defense systems and build up resources, Starlink sort of did that, but it didn't make alot of difference what you built or where, give the player the ability to dispatch allies and hire defense forces. Starfox 2 showed they wanted to do somethingl ike that, but in star fox 2, there is like 5 little locations that are as simple as push a button and blow thing up, or dog fight sections that lasted all of 10 seconds. Little short activities can be sufficient if there is something else backing them up in between them. There is actually just so much that can be done in that regard, and it's something nintendo has shown they are interested in trying or have been in the past.
I do like the idea of mixing in classic levels in the open world. Why not mix both game types, such as there could be a normal campaign mode and a sort of Conquest mode that would be a war for the Lylat system kidna how Dynasty Warrior Conquest games have. Idk just throwing ideas out there. or lean out of the strategy elements and more into a Mercanaries direction, and make it like a Bethesda style open world game with space ships and dog fighting, but where your actions and who you side with can determine the outcome of the story.
How about a STAR FOX MOVIE?!!! If this new upcoming Super Mario Bros movie is successful then hopefully it'll give Nintendo and Illumination the boost to make a new Star Fox movie or series next.
When it comes to a new starfox game I like the bases of Star Fox M.
Being able to play as other characters, pilot other ships, exploring planets both in a vertical and on foot. Of course on rails and dogfighting being done with racing as something to do on the side.
Didn't touch story but with an open world we can not only explore and learn more about the planets but also the characters. Starlink and Assault had added layers to there characters with unique dialog but do to Assaults short run time and starlink not being a starfox game Didn't have enough time to go deeper and look at other characters.
Imagine a series of side missions offered by various characters. For example you can talk to Bill who could be found on corneria, Katina, or on the great fox and he'll offer a series of missions dubbed "Bull Dog Missions". You'll join Bill on missions throughout lylat that are dogfighting centric (for obvious reasons). After completing them you are rewarded the ability to play as Bill along with his ship.
My idea is VERY similar to yours. Great Fox and Corneria would be hubs/safe havens. There would be a system like Mass Effect where you have “paragon” and “renegade” options to mold Fox as you like. You can explore planets as well as do missions on them (like you stated) and you can have a love interest for Fox (Krystal, Fay, come to mind). Also, have more of a story line for Star Wolf. I like “A Fox in Space” and their take on Fara Phoenix who is Wolf’s girlfriend (she was Fox’s love interest in the Nintendo Power Comic from 1993). And then Venom... make it like the suicide mission in Mass Effect 2. But every so often have a mission that lets you quietly explore Venom before your fight with Andross... who I think needs to be like he is portrayed in “A Fox in Space”.
I really want to see the story carry on from either Assault or Zero, incorporating characters from Command in either scenario.
Star Fox 2 would have worked out fine been released in 95 early 96.
Gameplay wise it would have been pretty unique. Only concern might be Frame Rate.
Nintendo 64 had a few delays.
Both the GameCube games were unique and good.
Some co-op StarFox missions would be good.
🤔🛸🦊🐦🐸🐇
I love the pitch for Star Fox Mercenary! Though if i could add one thing, i'd love to see a return to the infantry missions Assault provided, with all the different characters having different playstyles and having different guns/gadgets to pick up! Just gotta change the tank controls to something more modern and bam, we could have a really solid Star Fox game!
If platinum handled those sections in assault, it would have been perfect.
i love the star fox series.
I just want a new star fox game with the same mechanics and play style as Star Fox 64 with new gen graphics. I loved that game it was a staple of my childhood
Some multiplayer missions will be good idea as well Co-op campaigns are fun.
They could use the melee combat from star
Fox Adventures obviously expand on it.
If hope Nintendo doesn’t get rid of Krystal and make Starfox Zero Deluxe (deleting or putting motion controls optional) and Starfox Adventures HD (and maybe Assault HD)
i think you hit the nail on the head. id love it. hell we could even include races both ground and flight based as OPTIONAL quests and customize our ships with gear or even get under the hood with like new boosters and engines and such. give slippy some actual developement so we dont hate him as much maybe? but when i say on land., in one of those timelines it kinda made canon that the F-zero series is in the same universe so why not explore that a bit? and nintendo was suposedly working on making starfox in the same universe as metroid so why not make that a thing?
The game idea is good, I had it too, but it still is just shoehorning in the arcadey Star Fox formula that nobbody seems capable of bringing beyong the mastery in 64.
Rather than Star Fox, I would evolve Starlink into an F-Zero game. Start with a full F-Zero GX system that in the lore is jsut a computer simulation, and a level editor. Then you can spend win earnings from those races to drop onto Starlink planets, and like missions on Monster Hunter or Death Stranding you will build those racetracks on perilous planets according to the plans in level editor.
The idea is that racing is illegal, and when you go planetside your main goal is to do repetitive tasks farming armor and crafting options. These behaviours will be aggregated among all players, and used as the basis of actual canon new set of some 60ish new F-Zero characters, kinda the same way Kojima games aggregated nuclear disarmament or terrain development. If a thousand people all dress up as Boba Fett and go around wreaking havoc, chances are that the game recognizes the combination of Boba Fett armor as "the correct" use of that equoipment and the character as a havoc wreaker. This will circulate in the game world as the rumored identity of that character.
Then at regular "splatfests", devs can release hype trailers and character reveals and this whole WWF-style face-heel dynamic and cutscenes, all based on actual popular ways people have played the game. It could be hype on the level of smash reveals.
@@sboinkthelegday3892 there is an upcoming game called Aero GPX that is exactly like GX.
I absolutely Love star fox but Zero killed the franchise I think :(
I love your idea for Star Fox Mercenary. That's the kind of game I want. Have it start after the Emperor Anglur ending of Command. Star Fox disbands, Star Wolf thrives, Venom starts to take over under the command of Dash. Fox must once again fight for Corneria, while trying to unite his team and win Krystal's forgiveness
I grew up on playing star fox on my Nintendo 64, and I still think that it is the best game of the whole franchise and just you mentioned it, it is because of its amazing storytelling. Good video man 👌🏻
Ok if i were doing a star fox mercanary game it start like this. Set 5 years after the events of lylat wars team star fox has disbanded due to lack of stable work. But with a new threat emerging its up to fox to rebuild his team and save the lylat system once again.
Nintendo should follow starfox assault formula
I would like to see Platinum Games make another Star Fox in the same manner as Vanquish, Mass Effect, and Astral Chain.
When I heard Platinum was developing Zero I imagined there were going to be sections that played similar to Bayonetta.
Make another Starfox Adventures type game but add more dogfights of course.
Man. They aint never going to make another starfox game. And if they do, its going to be really small. Or just not what we really want. But hey, at least I got my closure with StarFox Zero
Zero was the closest thing we got to a real starfox sequel,so I agree with you on that,if anything port it to the switch and get rid of the gyro controls.
I like your idea, just hope that it can incorporate Assault's gameplay styles. With better controls, of course, but I loved Assault's gameplay. Also, maybe you can upgrade your gear, vehicles and weapons on the fly (another RUclipsr named NickOnPlanetRipple pitched a similar idea). Assault was, as one other YTer said, primed for perfection. If it were longer, it would have been received much better.

The other one I saw before, the first you got never seen before, but I will later.

I've got an Idea for a Game that I've been working on for Years. But if I could get in contact with Nintendo, then I'd be set to make this Idea come to life.
I have been making ideas for new star fox games, even one of them involves brand New characters
Whao Star Fox Mercenary? If this is that way to Freedorm Space Combat And exploration like Star Link then I’m in for that. I hope they make it so
Dude.... yes this game sounds amazing!
I want a freaking next gen third person rail shooter. Honestly it’s the best genre no one ever buys. I want to get popular because the games are like a roller coaster ride
Make it a open world version of Start Fox Assault
What we need is The Legend of Peppy: Breath of the Star Fox
Breath of the Barrel Roll 😉
😆
I wish they make a new Starfox game for Nintendo Switch.
Star fox remaster. 64/Assault remake by Platinum/Zero from Wii U. I know how hard this would be but it's an instant buy for me. Assault with proper online multi-player with proper controls would be a blast.
The game idea I had was one that stared Fox's (and Krystal's) son, Marcus McCloud and his new Star Fox team in Star Fox GT. The game would involve playing though multiple missions on different planets, and possibly as different characters. Wolf also had a son named Vermilion O'Donnel who formed his own Star Wolf trio that Marcus would come across. The big bad of the game is a criminal organization that consists of a race of humanoid-cyborg like aliens that threaten to exterminate all life throughout the Lylat system and make it their own empire. The gameplay would involve using different vehicles in certain missions, mostly the arwing, with some Landmaster and Blue Marine and On-foot missions. Marcus and his new Starfox team defeat the evil organization and save not only the Lylat System, but the galaxy as well. I might write more lore on somewhere like Wattapad sometime.
I hope they make a new Star Fox game in the future
If we could play as the other starfox members and choose which one to play as for each mission or if they had their own unique story/levels to play as would be cool.
My dream game is an epic star fox sand box open world rpg
Here's what happens in the new StarFox game that i imagine!
Yeah of course Krystal is going back since she appears only in the franchise games
Peppy decided to go back fly on his Arwing with Fox, Falco, Slippy and Krystal
Bill, Katt, Amanda, Lucy and Dash gonna returned
Marcus (Fox and Krystal's son) gonna appears and he gonna have two little sisters (a young girl and a baby)
Andrew decided to go back on the StarWolf team
Wolf gonna revived Pigma as a cyborg and he gonna rehired him
Andross returned since he was the main antagonist of StarFox
And last to finish this! Miyu and Faye (from the cancelled sequel of the SNES game) gonna appears
Corrr ... sign me up ... I'm well and truly in on this idea!! Would love to see the story continue from the end of Assault though!
Maybe the rewards from the jobs can go towards weapons and vehicles like you say but also go towards building a new, bigger and better Great Fox seeing as it was destroyed at the end of Assault 🤔 really wish Nintendo would do more with StarFox; it had and still has so much potential!!!!
Unpopular opinion: Assault & Adventures were the best Star Fox games & actually progressed the series forward. It was the crybaby 64 fanboys who kept wanting rehashes of the same game & that’s what ruined the series.
All I would like to see that you get a chance to play with all the different team mates and do the mission with like a different skill set. Also the team needs to be more involved in everything
I would make a prequel, where you play as Ace Vulpes, a new recruit to the Star Fox Team, when it was James McCloud in command.
You’d fly alongside Peppy, James, and Pigma as they are hired to tackle a group of space pirates terrorizing the people of the Lylat System… ultimately pursuing them to the barren planet, Venom, where a scientist has coincidentally been exiled.
The story would show Pigma betraying the team, leaving the other 3 at the mercy of the Pirate leader and his benefactor… Andross.
James and Ace perish creating a diversion, buying Peppy enough time to escape and warn the Cornerian army about Andross building up a massive invasion force.
You’d then play as Peppy when escaping Venom, and in the epilogue taking place during the Lylat War (when Fox, Slippy, and Falco comprise the team with Peppy)… after defending Corneria, Peppy breaks formation when he sees the Pirate leader, now one of Andross’ generals, and endeavors to avenge Ace by taking him down once and for all.
If they released a star fox game that was that immersive and detailed I would actually buy another Nintendo console.
This idea is pretty much exactly what i pictured the next Star Fox game looking like (only less Ubisoft reuse of assets and repetitive missions). The one thing i would add would be additional on foot sections. Similar to the on rail sections you travel to specific area's to undergo these quests. I imagine these sections playing like Zelda meets Mass Effect, where Fox can freely swap between using a blaster for ranged combat or a staff (like in Adventures) for close quarters melee combat. Unfortunately the big thing I see holding these expansive Star Fox games from happening is that it would be an expensive endevour. If ever there was a time to make it happen it's now since the Switch is insanely popular.
