Item Description

The first time a Nintendo 64 controller shook in your hands, there is a good chance an Arwing was taking fire. Star Fox 64 was the first game to support the Rumble Pak, and Nintendo sold it in a bundle with the accessory, so the jolt of a laser hit and the shudder of a boss going down became part of how a generation remembers it. It is a reimagining of the Super NES original rather than a straight sequel, and it turned that game's on-rails shooting into something closer to an interactive space opera.

Fox McCloud, Peppy Hare, Falco Lombardi and Slippy Toad set out to stop Andross and save the Lylat system, and the route they take is up to you. Fly well, meet hidden objectives or save a wingman at the right moment, and the path splits toward harder planets; struggle, and you take the easier road. Forward-scrolling stages alternate with all-range mode battles where you dogfight freely in open 3D space, and the game swaps vehicles too, sending the Landmaster tank across planet surfaces and the Blue-Marine submarine into the depths of Aquas. Earning medals on every planet eventually opens an Expert mode.

The radio chatter is what turned it into a phenomenon. Voice samples from 23 characters replaced the original's animal noises, and lines like Peppy's “Do a barrel roll!” and Slippy's constant need to be rescued passed into gaming folklore. The rival Star Wolf team, led by Wolf O'Donnell, ambushes you with taunts of its own, and the score by Hajime Wakai and Koji Kondo gives every mission a big, brassy sense of occasion.

Up to four players can also battle in split screen across a three-part multiplayer mode, a fixture of late-90s sleepovers. Nintendo has returned to this exact story more than once, remaking it as Star Fox 64 3D on the 3DS and reimagining it in Star Fox Zero, but the 1997 cartridge is the version all of them are measured against. Europe knew it as Lylat Wars; on a Nintendo 64 shelf it is the definitive Star Fox, and nothing quite matches hearing the team call out over the radio as Corneria's coastline rushes toward you.

About the game

The update to the 16-bit Super NES title continues the original's on-rails 3D shooting action on the Nintendo 64. Starring Fox McCloud, Peppy Hare, Falco Lombardi, and Slippy Toad, this new 64-bit version contains 15 plus levels, easy, medium, and difficult paths, forward-scrolling levels as well as full 3D realms, and a three-part multiplayer mode using a four-player split screen. In addition to plenty of Arwing action, the game introduces a new hover tank and even features a submarine level. The 8-megabyte cartridge also boasts voice samples from 23 different characters instead of the original's animal noises. Star Fox 64 was the first game to feature Rumble Pak support. A Rumble Pak bundle and standalone version of the game were sold. Released in Europe under the name Lylat Wars.
