Star Fox flies in formation on Wii U

Shigeru Miyamoto returns to starships and animal people for a new Wii U entry in Nintendo's classic shooter series. Three levels were on hand in a small pre-E3 event hosted by Miyamoto himself, two in small arena style stages similar to those in Star Fox Commandand a third showing off the game's new helicopter vehicle.

While these levels demonstrated how classic Star Fox combat has been adapted for the unique two-screen set up offered by Wii U and its tablet controller, they're far from representative of the full version of the game Nintendo plans to release in 2015. Even as a prototype, though, Star Fox demonstrates great potential.
also featured in Project Guard, which Miyamoto hinted will be related to Star Fox.) The GamePad view then shifts to the robot's first-person view. It's tethered to your ship, so it can't go far, but it would be perfect forrescue and retrieval stages.

Nothing like a rescue mission was on hand at the event, though. Star Fox is raw potential at this point, a proof of concept that is more unfinished than any playable demo from Nintendo I've ever had hands-on time with. Outside of the dual-screen interplay, it's doubtful that anything of this prototype will remain in the finished Wii U product, let alone the simplistic environments and art.

Miyamoto promised as much. He said during a Q&A session after the demo that a full story will be available in the game, but broken into small selectable chunks so people can play missions in any order they like. There will also be traditional on-rails shooting stages, which Miyamoto referred to as "Valley Mode" stages, just like those in the original Super Nintendo game.

The only definites known about Star Fox at this point: Miyamoto's experiment with the two screens shows promise and the man himself will be heading up development. Otherwise, the game is a mystery. Even the studio behind the game remains unknown. While this prototype was made by Miyamoto's team at EAD, he said that Nintendo is looking for another studio to partner with to finish the game within one year. Regardless of who develops it, Star Fox already demonstrates that Nintendo isn't ready to give up on the two-screen concept of its current console.
