"Earlier this week IGNcube reported that Namco and Nintendo were jointly developing a new Star Fox shooter for Nintendo's next-generation console. Today, at a press conference in Tokyo, Japan, the two companies made the news official. Several other projects from Namco were also officially announced for GameCube.
Star Fox, developed by Nintendo and Namco, will arrive for GameCube April 2003 in Japan, according to the companies. The title is being created on Nintendo's Triforce arcade board but, allege insiders, will first appear on GameCube and then head to the arcades. The title, as readers will notice from the poster image we've grabbed below, features a different art style from Rare's Star Fox Adventures, and will in fact be a straight 3D shooter in the traditional style of the franchise."
My Score: N/A
Advantages: Fox McCloud takes to the skies again!
Disadvantages: Hopefully this won't just be StarFox 64 with updated graphics.
