Sweet!! I just got by brand new (well...not brand new -- it's used) Nintendo DS Lite today!! HALELUIA!!!1!11 When it comes out, we need to test it out!! You, me, and Rusty!!

BTW, I got a Nintendo system, so my opinions regarding my stand-ups for Sony-based consoles (aka the PSP) are no longer biased.

Tetris me you now! lol

Oh, I can't....I feel stupid when I say this...I didn't bring enough money with me for a game. I just got the console. Besides, none of the game really appeal to me -- only the upcoming ones.

Soon I'll post this in the first post...

Anyways, I have small bits of info for Star Fox Command for the Nintendo DS and Nintendo DS Lite.

Peppy has left the Star Fox team and has become a General. No word if General Pepper will be in the game.

It is said that Slippy gets a girlfriend. From what I've seen, it's true!

The game's box looks good!

The flying fish things that are attacking the Lylat system are called the Anglors.


It is also said that there will be a two player co-op mode. Some say it is confirmed, some say it's not. All we can do is hope.


I have moved all of these game updates to the first post. Any more updates will be posted there.

God, Peppy's OLD!! And Slippy's girlfriend is....yikes. LOL. But I'm sooooo glad Falco's a playable character!!

Like in Star Fox 64, this game is going to have a branching story with multiple (not just 2) endings. Depending on where you go, some characters might join your team, others will not. It looks like, no matter what you pick, you can only have 3 other teammates

Here are some examples. These are not true to what will happen in the game-I just made these up.

1) If you were to go from Corneria to Meto to Fortuna to Sector X to Macbeth to Venom you might have a Star Fox team of Fox, Krystal, Falco, and Slippy.

2) If you were to go from Corneria to Katina to Sector Y to Zoness to Sector Z to Venom you might have a Star Fox team of Fox, Slippy, Amanda, and Lucy.

3) If you were to go from Corneria to Solar to Meto to Titania to Sector X to Venom you might have a Star Fox team of Fox, Krystal, Lucy, and Falco.


Information from the Japanese Star Fox Command Website. http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/asfj/index.html

Japanese to English translation done by some members on the N-sider forums at http://www.nintendo.com/home

Star fox rulz it is such a sick game who dosen't like it smiles

That's awesome, Rusty!! lol, I dunno if I can keep up with all this new info...but I'm sure to get this game as soon as it comes out!!

Okay, It seems that the link to the Japanese Star Fox Command site was leading to a subpage on the site.
I have changed this so that it should go to the home page of the site.
Check the site again because you can get to more areas now.

Hey, Rusty -- do you know if you can use the Wifi Max as an access point?

I guess it would work. As long as it's WiFi.

I don't really know what it is so if you can tell me what it is and/or give me a website or picture of it, then I might be able to tell for sure.

Oh, never mind. lol. I found an article axplaining it:

http://uk.codejunkies.com/news_reviews. ... i=8911&s=8

This thing works great with my PSP, but I was none too sure about the Nintendo DS 'is all. Thx anyway!!

I agree with you it is very addicting but I haven't played it in a long time. Star Fox Command looks interesting but I don't think I will like the controls I hated Metrioid Hunters Controls uhh. and General Peppy is going to get very confusing from General Pepper. What is with the P's?

Major P.I.M.P.

LOL!! Yeah, I kinda noticed that too. But Peppy didn't become a General until later, so Pepper was Fox's commander at the time of N64: Lylat Wars.

But if there's any reason for me to doubt liking Star Fox Command, it'll have to be yours. Controls can be a problem, and the gameplay footage I saw didn't really make me feel any better about it. Never played Metroid before, but I saw someone play it, and he was all over the screens. Anyway, the pros greatly outnumber the cons, so I'm still gonna get it. FULL PRICE, FIRST DAY OF RELEASE!! I'm pre-ordering. ^^
