Does that M30 work on Switch Online as well as PC?

I have an 8bitdo SNES controller around here somewhere, if it works on Switch Online for SNES playing I'll see if I can find it, because that would be awesome.

It definitely works with the Switch, but it seems like you need to do some button remapping at the system level for it to have the correct buttons for Online games.

Remake of Starfox 64 coming to switch 2

Kinda glad I didn't wait for a Switch 2 and bought Switch instead.

I’m the perfect Nintendo consumer. I skip half the consoles. So I buy the remakes the first time I get around to the games. Where’s my ocarina of time remake?!

Rumor is that is actually in the works.

That will make me buy a switch 2. Do not shame me. I’m sure someone here paid Blizzard $25 to run around for 3 weeks during the D4 season in T2 judgement armor.

Fun fact - I got into a major “declutter” phase a couple years ago. Decided to sell my Ps1, PS2, and N64 stuff. I sold a perfect N64 with box and everything plus a copy of the gold versions in box of each Zelda. All opened along with other boxed games for significant dollars.

At the time I had a tub of other n64 games at my grandparents farm. Didn’t sell those. Fast forward last year and I’m there and go to get the games. I find my star fox 64 but someone had removed the game and left a mint condition box. Pretty sure it was my brother. I sold the box by itself for $50 on eBay. Nintendo collectors are weird.

I think the characters look a little too real. They should be more cartoony like most Nintendo games.

I was an avid starfox and starfox 64 fan… so I will be all on this.

My first job was part work “Americanizing” jewelry pins - like those little “5 year” pin with a fake ruby etc. i took them off the long paper strip, pushed them into a foam backer, flipped the 20x20 foam grid over, put the backs on then ripped out the foam square and put them in little plastic presentation boxes- it was now… made in America (back then, now i think its assembled in America) i got like… 5 cents per? Dunno… worked all summer and bought… StarFox 64 w rumble pack!!!

Remake. Remake. Remake. These people make original games anymore? How about an original Star fox for switch 2?

I'm super disappointed that this a remake. Can someone lock Miyamoto in a basement with a gaming pc and copies of X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter, Freespace 2, Freelancer, Wing Commander, etc.?


This is an easy sell for the male gamer demographic: "You are an ace pilot in a spaceship and you fly around with your bros and blow a bunch of shit up." SIGN ME THE FUCK UP THATS ALL I WANT IN A SPACE GAME, THANK YOU.


They could have made a new game with gigantic space battles between hundreds of starfighters, but instead they remade Starfox 64. Space battles between dozens of giant capital ships bristling with weaponry, blowing each other up as you weave in between them, but instead they remade Starfox 64. Assaulting a hidden pirate fleet hiding in a dense asteroid field, but instead they remade Starfox 64. Fighting a bunch of battlemechs with jump jets using the urban terrain of a city to play cat and mouse with your aircraft, but instead they remade Starfox 64.

ASSAULTING A GIGANTIC SPACE STATION AND FLYING INSIDE IT TO BLOW UP THE REACTOR CORE LIKE IT WAS THE SECOND DEATH STAR DURING THE BATTLE OF ENDOR, BUT INSTEAD THEY REMADE STARFOX 64.

2+ decades of technological advancement in console gaming and you spend time remaking an old game, instead of making a game similar to it, but much bigger and grander in scope.

Slippy has a fucking terrible voice. I’ll get this eventually.

Looks great, I loved Lylat Wars (European name for Starfox 64), still have the old cartridge somewhere.

The FF7 remake thread has helped me look at the new starfox and say... thank you for at-least not butchering it while you remade it.

From what I gather, everything is new - the level designs and layouts are "the same"

I was a big starfox & SF64 fan everything they showed matched my memberberries perfectly, the layout the bob-and-weave float-yness of the ship etc.

What didnt match obv is the new mission brief scanes and added cutscnes, the "fleshing out" of the characters is not something I really jive with, as mentioned in the mario movie, fox acted more like falco... so /ehh

One thing I /hope/ I noticed.... one of the objectives to get to the "best" and "hard" route was keeping your teammates alive... slippy is especially hard because he is pants on head retarded and they only regained so much HP after each stage.

Your teammates take damage when a bad guy gets on them and you dont save them etc. etc... but on the fire planet-- if you fly too close to the lava you take periodic damage (or it is always and increases if your close...its been a bit)... however! your crew does not, UNLESS THEY ARE TALKING... only while they are talking do they take the periodic damage.. and in this stage there is ALOT of useless banter and I would always have stupid slippy die AS HE IS TALKING TO ME about random nonsense... and while I loved the game I was not super ace pilot at it, you essentially had to have slippy at 100% going into that stage and be right on the draw saving him (at your own determent usually) - and yes the "Help me!" message causes him to take damage AND the "Thanks fox!" message... so many times i would save him near the end and he would go "Thanks for the save!" = "AAAHHHH!!!!!!!" boom

Anywho, looking at the video, I think I could tell that they (peppy was talking) were NOT taking damage while talking during the lava planet.

edit: rewatched the video- right when peppy pops up to talk, he takes a hit of damage, and I do not see him being "attacked" on the screen...ehh /sigh lol guess I gatta GET GUD
