I love f-zero and starfox. I had no idea Imamura also did the art for my favourite zelda game, majoras mask!
That said I wish we'd get a new f-zero game sometime..
Yeah - the interview touches on the lack of new F-Zero and, to a lesser degree, Star Fox games. Apparently, they just haven't been a priority, there was a reference to games being canceled far into development, so I wonder if that happened as well.
I love the idea of Nintendo finding a good partner studio to bring a fresh take to F-Zero.
He said a new F-Zero would cost a fortune in this day and age. And so they are probably hesitant to invest in one and then only sell like, a million or less copies.
