Former Nintendo Power Artist Explains The Reason Behind His Mysterious Star Fox 64 & Star Fox 64 3D Credits

"I thought a lot about the varied, detailed internal construction of those things". As you may have already seen, Time Extension recently had the rare opportunity to speak with Benimaru Itoh, a figure who, among other things, created the original Star Fox comic adaptation, published in Nintendo Power Magazine in 1993. As part of this conversation, we wanted to find out as much as we could about the creation of the comic, asking Itoh about his influences, his introduction of Fox's love interest F

Did You Spot This Insanely Deep Star Fox Reference In The New Switch 2 Game?

Impressive knowledge on display. Nintendo has just revisited Star Fox 64 (again) on Switch 2 and delivered a game that reminds us why Fox McCloud and his crack team of mercenaries are so beloved in the world of video games – and it hides an Easter Egg that proves the team behind the game are diehard fans.

More games should be on rails (literally)

It's been a good few weeks for games on rails. Nintendo's Star Fox remake wisely kept the tightly scripted, action-packed levels from Star Fox 64 largely the same, and they're still fun to fly through nearly 20 years later. Denshattack!, a new game from Undercoders, similarly features levels packed with carefully orchestrated sequences to great effect. Except instead of flying through space as an unnervingly realistic anthropomorphic fox, you're flying - and flipping, and spinning, and grinding

The future of game consoles is looking bleak

It's been a real good news / bad news week for Nintendo.
