Star Fox 64 3D: The Past and Present

[SgtSkullFog]

FUCKING LOVED THIS GAME... wish i still had my nintendo 64 and starfox :(

[AVandSK]

better graphics and its a little more bright.

GO NINTENDO

[TheBulletDodgingMan]

Gay. Go play Call of Duty.

[Trogdorbad]

@TheBulletDodgingMan

Can't tell if trolling or just fucking stupid.

[TheBulletDodgingMan]

@Trogdorbad Or having a different opinion. Fascist.

[Trogdorbad]

@TheBulletDodgingMan

Way to compare two completely different games.

WELL YOU KNOW I MEAN SKYRIM IS OK BUT SHINOBI IS JUST SO MUCH BETTER

I dare you to try and argue that comparing Skyrim and Shinobi makes a grain of sense.

[TheBulletDodgingMan]

@Trogdorbad All that matters is that Call of Duty is WIN. Nuff said.

[fartman114]

i personally feel that the 64 is better looking, it looked less choppy but hey i think its great that the kids of this generation get to play the games that that we played as a kid. the parents should just buy an old 64 and cartridge game because a car could run over those things and it would still work.

[VengadorDorado91]

Solar looks awesome!

[quasyj]

i have it on wii

[meatballbrawler2]

@AlabamaSoldier LIES!ALL LIES!The Wii does have great games like Super Mario Galaxy and The Legend of Zelda.Not to mention Kirby and others that I can't list!

[groundbeef2]

HOLY SHIT, now I need the 3DS version to augment my happy childhood memories of this gme...

[Trogdorbad]

@groundbeef2

Sorry for the interruption, my childhood is augmented.

[groundbeef2]

@Trogdorbad You and me both. Also, TROGDOR SHALL BURNINATE

[AlabamaSoldier]

I need this for Wii, not 3DS.

Hell, Wii needs this just to have a game worth playing!

[vindelextreme]

nintendo looked better

[3DSSUCKSPSVITAFUCKIN]

3ds is better

[ZombiezKilla58]

fuck all the cod haters. fuck all the starfox haters. your all pussies for hating both. you cant even compare them!!! i play both. i also have the original starfox 64. and no video game is for real men. a real mans game would be something outside. why do i always have to explain this!

[S0ryiu]

@ZombiezKilla58 Horse shoes: a real man's game.

[Parkourpurist89]

Fuck Cod, this is a real game right here!

[hotdogman67]

Conker's Bad Fur Day and Perfect Dark for 3DS NOW! IDC if Rare was bought out by Microsoft, either.

[MetalGamingLive]

@hotdogman67 would never happen, microsoft owns both of those games, just wait for the playzune... oh wait hahahaha fuck you microsoft

[boidoh]

So funny i come here for star fox and then a comercial for CoD MW3 shows up.

[maccamuffin]

Ooo, the sun looks very nice....



[funkipor]

3ds me son mejores pero el 64 me recuerda a buenos momentos

[pnoyguitar]

It made an improvement. I mean, it's 3D. It's like you can see the depth on everything.

[scikoolaid]

IGN should be comparing to the real n64 version, not the virtual console that has graphical inaccuracies because of emulation.

[PandolfsParade]

To me, the most amazing thing about this comparison is that the 3DS is a system that can be held in your hands, and it excels past an actual console system. I'm not saying that we shouldn't appreciate or hate either of them, because I friggin love this game to bits. I'm just saying, take a look back, and see how far we've come in the field of video games. I think we deserve a pat on the back.

[bastardstrash]

rescue yesterday with my nintendo 64 Lylat Wars and today I bought the star fox64 in 3d, I LOVE THIS GAME

[mquiroz90]

Looks so different almost the same from the one from 1997

[maidenslayer]

1:01 much better on the 3DS. When playing on the N64 I always thought that level was like sand dunes or something.

[Trevor1182]

This is one of the greatest games ever made, looks nice on 3ds, but i still prefer the original

[thrustmegatron]

Disrepectful Little WHELPS!

[dethdrummer1123]

Some aspects look really good, but the brightness kind of bugs me. It's better to obscure some details in shadow in my opinion, gives it more of a realistic feel.

[MrThreshold2009]

i'm a massiv fan of lylat wars from the n64 and still have it but this looks great. shame i cant afford a 3ds. a real fuckin shame cos id totally buy this. if only i had a better job. you see i studied loads n ended up in a big amount of debt, then the recession started and i was unemployed for 3 years before finally getting a shit job that got me 9k a year, then that ended and im unemployed again. so im job huntin and even then i wont have money even if im lucky enough to get a job. so no 3ds.

[MetallicaBrando217]

I have embarked on a quest! ...to find apecmt191997's comment...

[whyicpna]

es lo bRAVAZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[seckusa]

cant believe the magma level looked that bad on n64.. geeze

[SlamTheLabel]

@seckusa who cares but while playing the game you get way more immersed and don't necessarily care about stuff like that. That's what makes the n64 games so amazing. Also hdtvs make standard quality games look really old. Hdtv needs to have an option to show stuff in standard quality as well. Starfox would've looked a lot better that way.

[CKNewsReviews]

DO A...... SUMMERSAULT! :D

[Iruleyoufail]

its funny that psp had better graphics than the DS plus more features and the DS still out sold it and since nintendo lowered the price down on the 3ds i have no doubt the 3ds will beat the vita.

[moon1l]

@Iruleyoufail once again proves that good games make sales not pure power

[BuccaneersTalib]

@Iruleyoufail maybe the ds had the better games? I fucking hate people like you, You would but a 60 dollar barbie game if it had good graphics. GRAPHICS IS NOT WHAT MAKES A GAME GOOD.

[Iruleyoufail]

@BuccaneersTalib wtf are you talking about, i was making a point how graphics mean shit to nothing in a game or a system its gameplay not graphics i've games with good graphics but shitty gameplay and i hate it.

[Adventureruler]

You can see the difference lol

[MahajiHaji]

Well.

Now I need to buy a 3DS.

[notANOTHERaccount6]

Zoness looks AMAZING on 3DS

[TheIpadFanatic4Life]

@thelasthallow it's leaps and bounds beyond what you say it is. Your fucking retarded. Get your facts right

[TheIpadFanatic4Life]

It looks pixelated because the systems screen is small, thats all. It looks wonderful and sharp and non pixelated on the system itself

[Default158]

its amazing to see how far handhelds have come

[eaglegolfer808]

I love the 3DS remake, but I miss the N64 voices :\

[xvxThexShadowxvx]

@eaglegolfer808 That's exactly how I feel. I love the remake but if theres one thing I could change it would be the voices. The actors sound like they were trying too hard lol. They should've did what Zelda did; keep everything the same except update graphics. :D

[scikoolaid]

@xvxThexShadowxvx omg exactly! I made a point to tell nintendo that very thing in my club nintendo survey's. I don't know why they messed with the game, the only speculation i could think of was maybe they somehow lost the original material and scrambled to re-record it... Probably not though

[MrDoriefs]

shit, it looks worse - pixelated and day-glo

[pelerestern]

Enter: goo.gl\oUcPQ and get your own Nintendo 3DS.

[TheNaitokurabu]

I disliked it just so there would be 64 :D

[iteachvader]

@TheNaitokurabu Damn... somebody messed that up for us...

[Nebuli2]

@TheNaitokurabu And now it's 69 :P

[nedetasert]

Contest started: goo.gl\ZoAiK - obtain Nintendo 3DS Console.

[Caleb1upman]

63 people still cant get passed Andross on the Nintendo 64 version

[w028856]

thumbs up if u played or got this game yet

[w028856]

@Digiflower5 me too

[MrJamiedude]

in terms of graphics... the most spectacular diffrence between the 64 version and the 3ds versons are the levels. its a shame only two levels were shown in the video and not levels like katina. the graphics on that level is sweet.

[spencersdh1]

@MrJamiedude I agree completely. The way the sun glistens when it reflects off of the water is awesome.

[AlextheTitan]

@mastergp4life Somewhat true. Still you must see that some people would want to see a comparison.

[meandmyfriends999]

Watch in 240p for best results XD

[KillerPikmin]

I may buy a 3DS just to get this.

[meandmyfriends999]

@KillerPikmin its a REALLY great game,with lots of replay value!

[KillerPikmin]

@meandmyfriends999

I know. I've been playing the 64 version since I was 6. ... Which was 97.

[meandmyfriends999]

@KillerPikmin .....oh...i was born in 97,now i finally got this classic game XD I can see why it is!

[KillerPikmin]

@meandmyfriends999

Glad to see a fan join the ranks! Rock on

[meandmyfriends999]

@KillerPikmin do a barrel roll!! XD

[aStrayforMyTime]

do the characters still talk(I hope) in the 3ds version? "USE THE BOOST TO GET THROUGH"! [I know falco, get of my ass i'm better then get over it]

[NDUDE]

I've beaten SF64 several times, and I just finished my third run through SF643D. The 3D version is really nicely polished, both video and audio (crisper sound, really cool water effects). Honestly, I think it's a much better remake than OoT3D.

[jacen0000]

s a nintendo owner and n64 starfox lover im really pissed this has no online multiplayer, what were nintendo thinking this game would have rocked with online play, i was thinking of getting a ds but i was realy dissapointed when i heard this isent online so i see no reason to buy one , i get fedup easily with 1 player games, this should have been online complete fail by nintendo what were they thinking not having online with this

[TrueRandomnessV2]

I like the redone graphics for the 3DS, but I really miss those old N64 graphics.

[sfried]

They didn't show Zoness. Best looking level in the game IMO.

[mumajugs1]

Trust me people the graphics in this game are WAY better in real life. A serious must have for the 3ds library, despite it being a port.

[raeman9653]

I'm not sure how i feel about the 3ds version. The original just seems more classic to me. SF64 was one of the first games i ever owned, and sure, the graphics may have been improved, it just doesn't sit well with me, especially now that the voices have been changed.

[sithlordsoup]

but will it blend?

[GrayWoIf]

Looks like a shiny old game...because they are trying to make it look like the original as much as possible but if they had made this a new game it would look much like something of this generation

[RyuHoly]

both r sill good to me

[802hulk1]

N64 looked way better then that

[Flash11I19]

They used to say the original DS was more powerful than the N64. But I was never sure about that. But I am now definetly sure that 3DS is a lot more powerfull than the N64. That means there is no excuse if Nintendo wont release future 3DS games with the size of Banjo Tooie for example. Yeah, that would be the shit. Banjo Tooie with better graphics on 3DS. But too bad that will never happen.

[zachfernandez92]

this is a great game and has beutiful graphics

[h3nkku]

that is NOT how solar looked on N64!

[taintedtapper]

3DS has larger Render distance

[threat645]

Lol. And this dus NOT make me want to get it eneymore then i already did.

OG for the win. No buy

[Dasraxo]

no difference.i actually see the 64 with the better graphics

[TheWhistleTeam]

@Dasraxo Ahaha oh wow

[Dasraxo]

@TheWhistleTeam do you agree?

[dmanjj2]

@Dasraxo Solor level...

[AshesAriseArchives]

I'd still take the N64 any day (nostalgia)

[GamerzHub118]

main enhacment colours are more vivid and rich

[Terryracoon]

Facts about 3DS and it's games:

1. These are the best handheld graphics there are out there at least until vita comes around (Unavoidably, it will have superior hardware), but still

2. NEVER trust a video to show you how a game looks on a handheld: Handheld games are crafted especially for the handheld screen, and usually look 5x better on it, and NOWHERE is this more true than with the 3DS

3. The guys bitching that " THIS IS GHEY AND HAS SHIT GRAFX" don't care about anything i just said....

[thelasthallow]

@Terryracoon 1 no they arnt Android games and Iphone games look just as good

2 well they had both the N64 and 3Ds versions IN the video so even though they both look bad in the video you can still directly compare the two versions

3 well he is pretty much right you know. there are some things that look great but there are quite a few places where you notice its barley better than the N64 version. also there seems to be more jaggies on the 3DS version.

[Terryracoon]

@thelasthallow "more jaggies on the 3DS version."

Remember what i said about looking better on the actual system? Well, said jaggies (The point everybody brings up when saying this looks "shit") are barely visible on the 3DS screen!

"Iphone/android looks just as good"

Just as good =/= Better

People are saying these graphics are BAD, but considering other games on handheld systems look either "Just as good" or "Worse"... You get the idea...

[thelasthallow]

@Terryracoon its not hard to look for a video to see for yourself. you just a nintendo fanboy who dosnt see past the 3D.

[Terryracoon]

@thelasthallow *facepalm*

Good job insulting your way around the main point....

"NEVER trust a video to show you how a game looks on a handheld"

When you look at the ACTUAL SYSTEM, you can't see the jaggies, unless of course you press your face against the screen "Herpderp dis grafx r teh blurry n pixely"! The same happens on PSP, too....

You CAN however say this is a small improvement over the 64... OOT3D did a better job revamping the game....

[thelasthallow]

@Terryracoon actually you can get a pretty goo representation of a game through youtube. the fact of the matter is the 3DS is like as powerful as a dreamcast so these remakes wont be that much better. like we can see with this video and the zelda remake things do look better. but its not like WTF OMGBBQSAUCE better. its just like wow that's cool and that's about it. the fact is the games barley look better deal with it.

[SolBuster]

@thelasthallow Apparently you haven't seen the graphics for the Resident Evil games on the 3DS

[trollbie]

@thelasthallow Oh my god how stupid are you

[thelasthallow]

@trollbie the question is how much of a fanboy are you?

[DARTHREVANKICKSMALAK]

This new game looks like it has 2003-2004 graphics, I smell low budget all the way around

[Terryracoon]

@DARTHREVANKICKSMALAK It's a handheld, buddy handhelds are always 1 or 2 gens behind graphics-wise...

[dmanjj2]

@DARTHREVANKICKSMALAK Your trolling right? Handhelds didnt even have these graphics in 2003-2004.

[BlazeArceus777]

Nintendo: You get to star in a new game that clips your most AMAZING performance in SF64.

Fox: Well? What's my new game called?

N: Star Fox 64... 3D.

F: BUT THAT'S THE SAME F***ING GAME!

N: Well, the earlier games kinda sucked, so... we had no choice!

[xeliz0r]

@BlazeArceus777 LOL

[millsyrules26]

@BlazeArceus777 all you did was copy smosh

[kingbooforums]

all they did was make everything shinyer

[TheWhistleTeam]

@kingbooforums Absolutely not. They remade everything, the models are much more detailed, the textures are clean and hi-res and they used dynamic shadows and reflections, really nice shaders and bump mapping here and there. Have you actually played the game? I bought it yesterday and I was stunned at Zoness!

[kingbooforums]

@TheWhistleTeam what's bump mapping?

[notoriousmakavel1]

@TheWhistleTeam there is no AA look at all the jagged edges.

[TheWhistleTeam]

@notoriousmakavel1 I know that, I haven't said anything about antialiasing.

[cjschrisAU]

Old game is old. Give me something new Nintendo for once.

[ZFFM]

Solar went from a boring planet that you avoid because it makes you vomit, to the most gorgeous thing on the 3DS. Well played Nintendo, well played.

[TheCanadianPenguin]

If the 3DS wasn't such a fucking gimmick I would've got this game. It looks like the only interesting title on the 3DS right now.

[LWStupidus]

It still looks like shit. Nintendo should focus on its graphics for the WiiU and not just rely on its bread and butter brands.

[LukePaz99]

@2mek8 The game isn't you to be a shit.

[JakeyFreakin]

@2mek8 - No one gives a shit about what you just said there. You know why? Because for one you sound like a 10 year old prick and two... oh wait I think I covered everything. Go back to playing black ops because your too young to even understand.

[2mek8]

@JakeyFreakin

and im gone play my BFbc2 on my pc

1080 60fps

SUCKAAAAAAAAAA n im 20 so shut the fuck up dick head

[jimmyelgringito]

@2mek8 What jakey said. No one gives a shit about what you said. If you really are 20 you are extremely immature for your age. Grow up ;)

[2mek8]

@jimmyelgringito what ever dude

thats ure openion

i cant say or do shit because this is youtube

[jordanserg31]

Technology has changed dramatically, i can see the difference, Nintendo only had a 64MB GPU on the N64. compare to today where it is a hand held, it has a 200MB 3D Nvidia GPU.

[megamanx1800]

Wasn't Star Fox 64 already in 3D?

[superboertje12]

yeah u right! i install my n64 again, bring my 3ds back and play starfox on n64! bcuz the 3ds sucks! thnx for help me before i decided to hold my 3ds and wasted 200 euros

[SuperPSTutorials]

both look terrible, nintendo is best known for its shit graphics but fun gameplay.

[jimmyelgringito]

@SuperPSTutorials Nintendo is actually known for getting the most out of their hardware and making incredibly fun games.

[FellFour]

@SuperPSTutorials I'm sorry, but can you stick your XBOX 360 up your ass please. Thank you! :)

[Jatsun95]

@Shufflerover123 no, i didnt say that either.

[xeliz0r]

Still, 3DS version looks outdated, IMO.

[GameAtHeart]

@xeliz0r That's only because you are comparing it to Consoles and not Handheld's. It can't really be outdated if you don't really give any reasons.

If comparing to handheld's which you should, it's not outdated.

That is till PSP Vita comes out which Users have said the Graphics are more better which is a reason to say outdated except it's not out yet so it remains dated within the Year.

[jimmyelgringito]

@xeliz0r I just got it and it looks incredible.

[xeliz0r]

@jimmyelgringito no doubt, in the 3ds itself... it should look better than a trailer on youtube :-)

[jimmyelgringito]

@xeliz0r After playing the updated version i have to say that it looks amazing. The polygon count is not that great when you are close up to things, but the textures look great, almost current gen ps3/360 quality :D

[kreater111111]

i used to go to my cousins house just to play this game

[MojoSmelz]

some stuff wasnt to different it was just brighter. but god how the lava level has changed

[Gastornik]

Do a Barrel Roll! !!

[MattCoxGraphicDesign]

im sorry for those people who like this but it still looks shit

[XxDarkGundamxX]

@MattCoxGraphicDesign

I respect you're opinion, but this game came out today and I played and is awesome.

[Jacke9779]

N64 ftw! Best console evar! :D

[MEGAINDIEROCK]

@Jacke9779 SNES was & still is the best console ever made in my opinion.

[FinalFantasySys]

Nintendo 64 gamer was playing at night, and 3DS one at day ^^

[97dusk]

To those old-school gamers that live so deeply in the past, the 3DS looks and sounds better than the original. The 3DS version has much deeper detail and is much brighter, Solar is the perfect example of this. Yes, I was born the year Star Fox 64 came out on the N64 and started playing it when I was 2. And for you guys saying that the N64 looks BETTER is just a complete shame.

[DISYICE]

@97dusk Lol playing it when you were 2? I barely remember anything from when I was 5 in 1998

[jFND90]

@97dusk Damn, I feel so old. I used to think kids born post-1995 will have a long way away before they can actually verbally communicate with other people. Now it's 2011 and I'm friggin' 21. Definitely missing the SNES/Sega Genesis days.

[MakeAGameWithMe]

iam gay for starfox

[KatieKalamity]

60 people can't let us play this, starfox

[benaqui247]

i never played the original game but this seems very similar to the update that zelda ocarina of time got and some criticized. mainly i am glad that its not depressing and dark colored anymore.

[SuperMariofox18]

Cool

[gboy556]

Congratulations Nintendo, you've slightly improved the graphics of a 90's videogame...

[tdogg00000]

what it boils down 2 is n64 looked better in level design and 3ds looks better in boss design

[JBT24]

Man, I had no idea SF 64 was such a dark-looking game.

[SEGANextGen2012]

12.12.12

DREAMCAST 2

It's Coming...

See channel for evidence

[BLAZ3R0]

Isn't it funny watching people rage on every video you watch, it's just hilarious, annoying fags! XD

[harmfulifconsumed]

are you fucking retards actually that blind to think the simple, low-polygon N64 original looks better than this 3D remake?

IGN commenters: dumber than Fox news viewers. Oh wait, they're owned by the same company.

[Hfajardo97]

@harmfulifconsumed That's because it does. In the 3DS its different but since they stretched the 3DS version it looks way more pixelated than the N64 version but when they show the bosses you can tell that the N64 has less polygons. Other than that, according to this video the N64 looks better. In real life it doesn't but most people don't realize that.

[harmfulifconsumed]

@Hfajardo97 Even so it looks better, just because some morons think that YouTube represents exactly how a 3D game on a handheld will look like doesn't make them less retarded.

[notoriousmakavel1]

@harmfulifconsumed agreed n64 looks better looking sad port.

[Legokink1]

Wow just wait and see what handhelds will look like in the future

[mynameisdudler]

what is in the mind of the person hitting the dislike button?

you read the title watch the video and its exactly what it says it is.

if you dont like n64 star fox

3ds

or w/e it is why bother clicking on the video in the first place?

[PowerfulProducti0nz]

Much better graphics love it :D

[xDarkness69]

I still like how it looked back then except for the water in corneria that's like the only difference I saw

[mynameisdudler]

@xDarkness69 really!!? i think you need glasses or do a double check on this video

maybe slow it down a bit or something

i can totally see the difference
