There must be something broken in my brain because I think the new starfox designs look awesome.
John getting cut off in the edit at 25:25 as he ventures more into his views on AI 😂
A lukewarm yet bespoke greeting right back at ya.
I have no idea what is so bad about the Star Fox designs tbh.
I want a new wave race.
We need more N64/GameCube sized games with modern graphics for reduced prices.
I like the new look of the Star Fox character as well. The gameplay at 60 fps is more important anyway
Splatoon and now StarFox with a lower price! A good change.
I think Oliver meant to say Illumination (not Imagination) with regards to the Star Fox characters.
I love John’s take on the chip shortage
I am so excited about Star Fox coming back with modern visuals, as they just don’t make games like this anymore. A new Wave Race with Switch 2 tech could be mind blowing. We haven’t seen modern water tech used in a racing game, and I would love to see it happen just once.

I’d like to see pilot wings, wave race, and rogue squadron games remade from the n64 days. Sequels ideally but I doubt it especially from rogue squadron.
What a treat of an introductory line, cheers 🍻
Sold for 75 dollars into second hand market my GTX 1080 zotac mini which lasted dec 2016 to June 2025. Legend
14:20 Eternal Darkness being given the Resident Evil 2 remake treatment would be DIVINE.
I’m still going to hold off on the switch 2 till they release a proper oled.
I'm gonna need another price hike before I feel comfortable buying
Thank you John and Oliver. I watched the Star Fox Direct before seeing any reactions/opinions and thought it looked awesome! Reminded me of the SNES box art, but a more polished version of it. I was surprised to hear there's so much negative sentiment.
Star fox zero had a learning curve that nobody could be bothered climbing. That game was the best in the series. The only one to solve the problem of putting yourself in harm's way when aiming.
