00:00Star Fox 64 always seemed larger than the boxy CRT television I played it on. Star Fox,
00:05a remake of the 1997 real shooter for Nintendo Switch 2, has the same effect. Thrusting beneath
00:10tumbling skyscrapers, barrel rolling or aileron rolling between lasers, trying desperately to
00:15keep a rival pilot in my crosshairs, it's as if I'm stepping through the screen and into the
00:19cockpit, rather than sweatily hammering every button on the handheld. Star Fox delivers thrilling
00:24arcade-style action, new cinematics that enrich the story, and a highly replayable experience
00:29overall. However, the campaigns branching past lose some mystery from the original game,
00:34co-op can be a little awkward, and not everyone will like its character redesigns. Star Fox on
00:39Switch 2 makes the lilac system feel far fuller, uplifting one of Nintendo's greatest action games,
00:44and with its on-rails action proving timeless, this is now the definitive way to play Star Fox 64.
