Now that the franchise is over, what went wrong? Were the shit controls really enough to make it flop even harder than SMTxFE?
>>336220160
I'm surprised that many people bought it considering how few people own Wii U's
It's not just the controls. It's that they failed to improve upon SF64 in literally any way. Nintendo doesn't understand that shit gimmicks are no substitute for strong design.
>>336220160
serves them right.
Nintendo games usually rely on long term sales until they make a profit. They also don't need to sell 7 million copies to break even either.
It's sold like dogshit in japan for decades and it's a wii u game. It's banking on a western success, though it probably won't get that either.
DUDE JSUT LMAO
Nobody but furries cares about Star Fox.
>>336220542
I think that the certain korean surgeon cares more about Star Fox than everyone else combined
Remove motion controls. Remove every shitty vehicle except the Arwing, instead innovate the Arwing gameplay. Balance rail sections and all range sections.
More Star Wolf dogfights, those were by far the best part of the game.
It's a a shame that they treated a historic franchise like that man.
>>336221018
>Remove a great control scheme because I'm too shit to adapt to it, and obviously have never played Splatoon
>Remove vehicles that have been in since 64, and 2, like the chicken and the landmaster
Jesus Christ.
I wouldn't mind an option to play with a "proper" control scheme, but the gyros work perfectly, just like in Splatoon. It takes a small amount of time to get used to, but the skill ceiling is much higher.
That, and more content.
why did it go this way lads?
>>336220160
>People surprised Starfox didn't sell in japan
I hate to break it to you, but Starfox never sells in japan. Starfox, F-zero and Metroid are all basically western-centered franchises. Nintendo even acknowledges this fact and says this is why they don't like making these games. They want games that will sell domestically to.
>>336221375
Nintendo should have let Platinum take care of everything
Instead they had to fuck it up
>>336221430
>nintendrones still damage controlling
>>336220160
don't care, game is fun. take this shit to /biz/ or /trash/.
>>336221375
Nintendo didn't pay for reviews
Review websites will always rate games lower if they're not paid, unless the game is undeniably good and they would get massive shit for rating it poorly.
Seriously, not a single review website gave it a fair or balanced review. They weighted it down heavily for non-issues instead of the actual flaws of the game. They almost entirely missed all of the key issues with the game, which just reeks of them being shitters
>>336220160
Star Fox is a franchise westerners buy
#FE was made for Japan
>>336220240
>I'm surprised that many people bought it considering how few people own Wii U's
Nintendo games sell very well most of the time.
Splatoon sold twice as much as Bloodborne for example
>>336221658
>The Wii U outsold the PS4 in Japan
>PS4 only sees success in EU and US via sports games and CoD
>>336221557
I guess they forgot to pay the ordinary fans on Metacritic too.
>>336221723
And how are those Japanese sales working out for nintenshit?
>>336220160
Well that's what you get for making a game with shit controls and gimmicks Miyamoto should be let go he's fucking up games now
>>336221814
>And how are those Japanese sales working out for nintenshit?
Nintendo has a really good attach rate actually.
It also helps that they make their own games, so they see all of the profit from those sales.
Sony and M$ don't really see much profit when CoD sells 10M copies again.
>>336221658
>most popular Sony IPs are all remastered games

If you wanted a SEGA Shooter just get a SEGA Shooter.
>>336220240
There's this stigma that WiiU owners will buy and play anything.
It's untrue. They don't buy bad games for the sake of it.

Are you shitting me?
The Korean who kept buying porn of Falco jacking off on buildings is a fucking surgeon?
Well at least we have A Fox In Space

Furry as shit, but god damn that was well done.
>>336221972
Sega, the only one who can make fun arcade games. You're right! One day Nintendo will make a good one, hang in there.
>>336221658
But Splatoon was LITERALLY the only Wii U game coming out in months and it was marketed towards children.
>>336220160
It's quite sad that such a great game gets a bad rap because people are both stubborn and shitty players who can't admit a game could be good just because they don't understand the control scheme.
>>336222325
Bloodborne is LITERALLY the only PS4 game worth buying.
Also children don't buy things like Splatoon, children want CoD and Destiny and things like that.
Most of Splatoon's playerbase is adults, with a few kids thrown in occasionally.
90% of the time though, kids are too worried about being seen as "kiddy" for playing something that isn't "mature", so they stick to GTA, CoD, Destiny, things like that.
>>336222183
Or Namco, Capcom, SNK and Taito
>>336221921

>>336222469
It's an average game at best, mediocre at worst. It's extremely short with no multiplayer, easy with no additional difficulty options, has an annoying forced stealth section, alternate routes don't really do much, etc.
>>336222652
DELETE THIS
>>336222534
>Most of Splatoon's playerbase is adults
Then they're the scrubbiest adults I've ever played against. The community in Splatoon is really fucking bad, but you assumed so since most are assumed to be kids new to games.
>>336222534

I don't think even SF fans love SF0, it's just nintenbabies
