"Star Fox is a series of sci-fi rail shooter video games created by Nintendo, featuring anthropomorphic animals as characters. The setting mainly takes place in outer space in the Lylat System. Games in the series have been released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, Nintendo 64, Nintendo GameCube, Nintendo DS, Nintendo 3DS, and Nintendo Wii U. The majority of the Star Fox games are considered rail shooters, although Star Fox Adventures is more of an adventure title in the vein of The Legend of Zelda."@en . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Usually set in the Lylat System, they battle Mad Scientist Andross, their rival counterpart Star Wolf, and other threats. There are currently five games in the series, only four of which are \"true\" Star Fox games. Some of the games had different names for European releases due to trademark issues. \n* Star Fox (released as Starwing in Europe), for the Super NES. Technologically advanced for the time - Nintendo put a coprocessor chip on the game cartridge to handle the 3D rendering - but looks quite dated today. Had some of the most memorable music in the entire series though, composed by Hajime Hirasawa who then left Nintendo. An SNES sequel, Star Fox 2, was produced in 1995 and had extra features such as evasive maneuvers and free-roaming levels, but was ultimately never released and most of the new features were incorporated in the next game in the series: \n* Star Fox 64 (released as Lylat Wars in Europe), a Killer App for the Nintendo 64, was a remake of the original game, and is usually considered to be the strongest game in the series, with frenetic and fun dogfighting and good gameplay variety. It's short, though, and the difficulty swings wildly between too easy (on normal mode) and cheaply difficult (on Expert). Notable as the first game to support the N64's Rumble Pak (the first mainstream vibrating controller accessory; yes Nintendo started that trend), which came bundled with it. \n* A remake was released for the Nintendo 3DS in September 2011. \n* Star Fox Adventures, also known as Dinosaur Planet, is generally the black sheep of the series. This isn't so much because it was poorly regarded by critics or fans (in fact, the game got fairly good reviews - better than both Assault and Command - and it's consistently cited as one of the best-looking games on Gamecube) but due to not originally being a Star Fox game at all. Instead, its origins lie in an unrelated N64 adventure game moved into the franchise (and to the Gamecube) by Nintendo's urging during development. The game did introduce Fox's on-again-off-again love interest, Krystal, who was integrated into the main series. Incidentally, this game was the last Rare-developed game for a Nintendo console before they were bought out by Microsoft. \n* Nintendo pawned Star Fox off to a third party once again in 2005, with the Namco-developed Star Fox Assault. While the return to the traditional shooter gameplay was well-received, the game suffered from too many missions on foot as well as a general lack of gameplay depth. In spite of that, the multiplayer is quite amazing, even for Star Fox standards. It also suffered from nicking its plot more or less wholesale from Silpheed: The Lost Planet, but it finally gave characterization to non-Star Fox characters. It also introduced Star Wolf's newcomer, Panther Caroso. To date, Assault is Star Fox's worst-reviewed game. \n* Finally, the most recent installment in the series is also its first portable installment, Star Fox Command for the DS. Featuring mostly free-roaming combat, the game introduced a well-executed touch screen control, a strategic map and customized aircrafts for nearly every character. It also had Multiple Endings, nine, to be exact. However, the plot isn't anything to write home about, and repetition sets in fairly quickly. This is the least-selling game of the series. The series is also notable for its long-rumored but never actually released second installment (that has had a late beta version leaked), Star Fox 2. Elements of that game were recycled into Star Fox 64 and (much more obviously) Star Fox Command. An arcade game was also planned during the development of Star Fox Assault made by Namco, a la F-Zero AX, but was canceled some time in the middle of development. The series protagonist Fox has also appeared as a starting character in all three Super Smash Bros games, and was joined by his teammate Falco in Melee and his rival and sometime ally Wolf in Brawl. There were also two official comics releases: \n* Star Fox, which was released parallel with the 1993 video game of the same name and compliments its Canon. \n* Farewell Beloved Falco was bundled with Star Fox Adventures only in Japan, and fills in plot details after Star Fox 64 and before Adventures. As its title suggests, Farewell expands on Falco's story and background. There is a character sheet, as well as a voluminous YMMV section."@en . . "Star Fox Zero"@en . "Star Fox"@en . .

The original game was a forward-scrolling 3D Sci-Fi rail shooter. Later sequels added more directional freedom as the series progressed. The game concept was inspired by a shrine to a fox god who could fly, which Shigeru Miyamoto visited regularly. The shrine was accessible through a series of arches, thus inspiring the gameplay. The first game in the series, developed by Nintendo EAD and programmed by Argonaut Software, used the Super FX Chip to create the first accelerated 3D gaming experience on a home console. The Super FX Chip was an additional math co-processor that was built into the Game Pak and helped the Super Famicom and SNES better render the game's graphics. The Super FX Chip has been used in other Super Famicom/SNES games as well, some with increased processing speed. Its remake, Star Fox 64, further revolutionized the video game industry by being the first Nintendo 64 game to feature the Rumble Pak. Due to trademark issues over the name Star Fox in PAL region territories, Star Fox and Star Fox 64 were released in those countries as Starwing and Lylat Wars respectively. However, Nintendo bought the rights before the release of Star Fox Adventures so future games could be released worldwide with the same name. The games follow an independent mercenary unit called Star Fox (made up of anthropomorphic animals) and their adventures around the Lylat system."@en . "Yoshinori Kawamoto"@en . . . . . .
