Looks stunning but Sticker Star was only "okay".

So SFZ is a rehash of Lylat Wars/SF64 with extra bits tacked on and Star Fox Guard bundled with it. Interesting.

There's a lot of stuff coming in the next few months. Which is nice.

It looks a lot more polished, that's for sure.

The deal-maker/breaker for me is still the controls though. If Starfox Zero is going to insist on Gamepad-only control for the main single-player campaign with no option to use the Pro Controller instead then it'll have to be a no for me. I really hope this isn't the case.

For those who missed it yesterday.

Surprising amount of Wii U games on the way, of course they filled out with "updates" to existing titles, but the next few months are looking alright on that platform.

Enjoyed that last night. Everything is coming in April or May pretty much. What's happening in June Nintendo? Eh?

Starfox I thought was looking a bit better, although still rough and the edges. I thought the bit on Federation Force was interesting - they are trying HARD to sell that game now. It looks pretty fun, but I think it suffers from the low power of the 3DS.

Hmmm. I actually thought it looked much better myself, far better than how it looked the last time we saw anything of it from Nintendo. If the controls aren't Gamepad-only then I'll probably pick it up.

And this will please the older fans (even if it does require amiibo to unlock).

->Open Spoiler<-

Lost Reavers from Bandai Namco also interested me - looks like it could be great fun in multiplayer. Will definitely look out for the open beta on April 14th.

Soul Reaver?! You got me curious. But it's Lost Reavers...

It looks better, definitely. But not something I'd class on the level of production value of a top tier game like 3D World or MK8.

You're right!

I keep getting the two confused, even when I searched for it again!

Corrected.
