Nov 22, 20116This game is criminally short. What you actually play is so fun and wonderful and at times fairly challenging. It's just a con putting this game out though at a full £40 initial price because there is nowhere near enough content despite being utterly brilliant all the way through. And I'm sorry but online 16 player dogfights woould hae been immense!!!!

Sep 9, 201110This was one of nintendo 64 best game and now its on the 3DS. One of the year best 3ds games. SO far this is the best 3d effect game. If you have a 3ds this is the game to get. There is no doubt , get it. It is worth the money.It has a lot of level and very fun to play. If you loved the 64 version then you will love this version even better.

Nov 16, 201110Nice that it's now possible to take such a game with you that was only playable on a big console 10 years ago. The 3D and gyro controls work well.

Dec 28, 20121As another reviewer said, it's "criminally short", and that's an understatement. Within the brief time (a couple days) I owned this game, I had beaten the game several times seeking out every variation and path I could find. I guess if I had been a bigger fan of the original then maybe this would be more fun.

Dec 26, 20119If You've Played Star Fox 64 Before, And Have Loved It, Then You'll Love It On The 3DS! Though If You're Familiar With All The Levels And Such, This Game May Seem Too Easy, Or A Bit Old, But The New Graphics And Score Mode Make This Game A Worthy Buy.

Dec 11, 201210I absolutely love this game. I will tell you now if you do not enjoy replaying games and going for perfect scores then probably avoid. This game has either a ton of re-playability or none and will take you a day or 2 to finish. I enjoy replaying this over and over trying to find the best routes to get the best scores. No there are no achievements, but there is something else, FUN.

Feb 18, 20129I can easily go along with all of the positive and mixed reviews here. The game's 3D is astounding and the story and alternate missions provide a good challenge. Yes, I realize that this game is short and I beat it one day after I got it, but the multiplayer and medals system makes up for that. Well done over all.

Sep 15, 20119This is the ideal 3DS game: Great 3D effects, short and tricky levels, pretty much perfect controls, a great storyline and voice acting and of course, fun. I've only played it for a good 30 minutes, but..well... it's just great. Don't know why I'm not giving it a 10, but 9 seems like the perfect score for it.

Apr 15, 201210This game was really good and plus this has been my first to play this game because I have never played this on any other system the multi-player mode was pretty good.

Nov 21, 20118This gameis another must have for the 3ds and brings backs memories of the 64 days, but this verison has better graphics then the 64 by a long shot. the 3d affect is amazing and the Starfox 64 3D levels really do look amazing on a handheld. the only thing that sets this game back is online play. i wish Nintendo would stop being lazy and made online play but other then that u have to get.

Nov 16, 20118Not the best 3DS game out there, but not that bad either. I never played the original, but the graphics looks absolutely amazing and has some of the best graphics on the system! But the lack of online connectivity is just disappointing and there is not much to do after you finish all of the modes. Definitely a must-have game for 3DS owners.

Nov 10, 20119Great game but there are problems. There is not all the multiplayer content from the n64 version with landmasters and even ground based gameplay with little to no new gameplay stuff here. But, this has some of the most addicting gameplay ever with scores making the player come back for more and more control customization with smoother graphics and frame rate.

Nov 12, 20119Starfox comes back!!! The magical game of N64 now in a "remake" version. For 3ds this game is very good, because we can play it for a short time many times and the 3d is great. Differents ways to play this game, but maybe a little short.

Dec 4, 20118Star fox 64 was originally a N64 game which has been remade on the 3DS. The graphics have definitely improved from the original with a higher polygon count and faster FPS but still with the same art style of the N64 game. The Star fox 64 3d tells of a group of futuristic spaceship or â

Apr 12, 20129Star fox 64 3D is an awesome space-shooter game that has incredible graphics & 3D, fun game-play and a great soundtrack. The land master missions aren't quite as good as the other missions, but hey, they're still great! I've never experienced the apparent glory of the original Star fox 64, but i truly love the 3DS remake.

Mar 4, 201210The original star fox 64 was the best game i have ever played, and the new 3ds version is good too. Although, I would have liked to see new levels along with the old ones. The only other faults the game has are the new soundtrack and the voice acting, in my opinion, they should have kept them the same.
-
Mar 13, 20128Well presented update of the classic shooter, although many of the same problems of "on the rail" game play still are present here. Also the 3d can get a little buggy in some of the more intense scenes. Otherwise a great time with nice action and great controls.

Jan 25, 20138Everything you loved about Star Fox 64 is abck and updated for the better. The 3d makes flight look great although I was not a fan of Gyro controls, despite it being a neat idea. All the content you had in 64 is here including the multiplayer. Although leaving Online out was a bad move the game is still worth a purchase in my book.
Let's hope Fox finally gets a new game on WiiU now. -
Apr 22, 20127What there IS of it is good. But I just cannot tell anyone, in good conscience, to buy this game and spend $30+ on it. I beat this game in less than 3 hours, and was like what, "That's It?". Definitely agree with the "criminally short" comment.

Jun 15, 20129A magnificent remake of Star Fox 64 from Nintendo 64. Best textures, good special effects and superb 3D. But there is one drawback - the game is too short and there is no additional content.
-
Oct 1, 20129Star Fox 64 is a timeless classic. The game has a forgettable story, BUT the gameplay is just PHENOMENAL. It is like nothing any game has ever seen before. When you add the kickass flight gameplay, the great voice acting and new stunning 3DS visuals, this game is a steal.If you have never played this game before, do yourself a favor.

Nov 4, 201210An amazingly awesome game. The gameplay is superb, and the gyro controls work well. Voice acting and dialogue are a little corny, but that's part of the appeal. A must-buy for the 3DS, and does Lylat Wars proud!
-
Jan 5, 20136The Fox still works. The levels are okay. But the game feels old and some levels are boring. Plus; the game is far, FAR too short. 2, 3 hours max and you can beat all the levels in the game. The game is good. Yes. But Pullblox has more content. This isn't worth the price tag!

Oct 31, 201180Even fourteen years after its first release fast and variable space action Star Fox 64 remains one of the best rail shooters and the 3rd dimension fortunately doesn't ruin its original playability. [Oct 2011]

Oct 28, 201180The graphics are beautiful, the 3D effect is very well implemented and the Arcade Mode is a good addition. Good, albeit a bit short, space action for your spare time.

Oct 25, 201190The game shines again, as did 14 years ago, combining the nostalgia with modernity.
