star-fox-zero--656x373

We’ve got another round of gameplay details for Star Fox Zero on Wii U. Get the info roundup below. 

– Star Fox Zero’s Corneria mission uses the same layout for Corneria City as Star Fox 64 with a new coat of paint
– Fly under a bridge to save Slippy, boost past falling buildings, and shoot construction robots throwing metal beams
– Control the Arwing with the left analog stick
– ZR: fire lasers
– Can hold down the button for a charge shot
– Y: Arwing does a somersault
– Moving the right analog stick activates boost
– Pulling the right analog stick back triggers the brakes
– Tapping the right stick left or right twice does a barrel roll
– Move the Wii U GamePad to control where the Arwing shoots
– GamePad’s screen shows what Fox sees inside the cockpit
– At the end of the Corneria mission, it switches to an all range mode
– When this happens, Fox needs to shoot spider-like robots from climbing a tower
– Robots are invulnerable aside from a red target on top
– Need to use the cockpit view to shoot down the enemies
– After the spider robots, the Star Fox team needed to shoot laser cannons from a giant saucer
– Another demo at E3 set in Area 3
– This stage brings Fox McCloud into an empty space field with enemies to shoot down in all range mode
– After taking out a few ships Pigma Dengar flies in and turns the stage into a dogfight
– Pigma tries to fly behind Fox to get him in firing range
– Using the somersault and then a charge beam turns the tables on Pigma
– Hold ZL to shift the camera on the TV to focus on the action instead of behind the Arwing

    First off, I’m not a huge Star Fox fan. I enjoy the games, but they have never been top tier to me.
    But I gotta say, the more I see of this, the more I am liking it. Looks like fun, I like that it doesn’t seem to be on rails as much as it used to.

  • PRIMUS

    Can I control the R-wing with no motion controls? If so then yes I am sold.

  • Mythosa

    Off topic:
    Treehouse live stream is up for day 3.

    I ordered Bayonetta 2 today, so time to see what Platinum is all about.
    I think Vanquish was also a Platinum game, and I really liked that game

    • Mythosa

      Hope you enjoy it. I played through it pretty quick, it’s worth playing, but I actually think that W101 is a better game personally.

      Damn, did it again, here comes the hate lol.

      • Kidking17

        W101 huh? Might get it to give it a try, after Bayonetta 2 I was thinking about getting Donkey Kong, but I’ll consider that game as well. Also Hyrule Warrios but that game is a Maybe because I find the Warriors style of game too repetitive, but the game looks cool PLUS ZELDA lol.

        • Mythosa

          Honestly, I would say you need to get all those games lol.
          I have put in far more time into Hyrule Warriors than any of the other 3 games. I didn’t dig that style of game before HW either.
          You really can’t go too wrong with any of the games you mentioned. I would say that Bayo 2 and W101 are actually the two games mentioned that people might not like as much because they appeal to a certain gamer that enjoys a certain genre. But if someone is unfamiliar with them, they should try them.
          W101 has a demo on the eshop still I think.

          • Kidking17

            Reading you guys talk I think I’ll get the W101 after I beat Bayonetta 1&2. Should be fun!

      • ednice

        No one can hate you, anyone who finished W101 and Bayo 2 probably compared those endings and saw a clear winner.
        Plus the scaling is better.

        • abINC4l

          I like the gameplay of Bayonetta 2 better, but the story and humor of The Wonderful 101 was better.

      • Agt_Pendergast

        I don’t want to pick, I love them both!

        • Mythosa

          Nothing wrong with that 😀
