What&#8217;s more, the uncomfortably realistic character redesigns have not gone down well with Star Fox&#8217;s fanbase&#8211;but at least the meme game is on point.<\/p>\n<p>The news of yet another Star Fox 64 remake has been met with some incredulity among fans, considering Star Fox will be the third remake Nintendo has made for Star Fox 64&#8211;which itself is a reboot of the original Star Fox. With only ten total games in the franchise, half of them are now essentially the same game.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bluesky-embed\" data-bluesky-uri=\"at:\/\/did:plc:n2vls4e3kc4c4ada2mglrd2e\/app.bsky.feed.post\/3ml7qi4ic522e\" data-bluesky-cid=\"bafyreic2hm6yn3t72fhchqh6twx662qzkbn2te5d7ciaqzkryrhqmmkvfm\">\n<p lang=\"en\">\n<p>&mdash; <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/did:plc:n2vls4e3kc4c4ada2mglrd2e?ref_src=embed\">Grantaelangelo is a party dude (@grantthethief.bsky.social)<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/did:plc:n2vls4e3kc4c4ada2mglrd2e\/post\/3ml7qi4ic522e?ref_src=embed\">2026-05-06T22:23:15.446Z<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/embed.bsky.app\/static\/embed.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Recent leaks out of Nintendo had claimed a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/articles\/the-legend-of-zelda-ocarina-of-time-remake-new-star-fox-game-in-development-for-switch-2-report\/1100-6539069\/\">new Star Fox game was in development<\/a>, giving fans hope that a sequel was on its way to refresh the long-neglected franchise.
