In Star Fox 64, players follow Fox McCloud, Falco Lombardi, Peppy Hare, and Slippy Toad as they attempt to save the Lylat system from Andross. This version of the game featured realistic, 3D ships and environments, voice acting, levels where you’d go into the Landmaster tank or Blue-Marine sub, up to four player multiplayer in Battle Royal, Point Match, and Time Trial modes. If you decide to go through it again, remember to go through all of Meteo’s Warp Points to unlock the Katina level and all of Sector X’s Warp Points so you can visit Sector Z!

 

Star Fox 64 is $9.99 in the Nintendo Wii U eShop.
