E3 Trailer: Nintendo showcases 'Star Fox Zero'

Nintendo presented Star Fox Zero today during E3, giving a gift to fans that had no idea the game was coming so soon.
At the end of the trailer, Nintendo promises a release this holiday season, far sooner than what most expected.

Among the new features showcased is the ability to transform your Arwing fighter to a walking mech robot where you can use the GamePad controller to move to cockpit view.

Check out the trailer here:

This game definitely looks fun just as all other Starfox games did but too bad Nintendo just has no interest in trying to make their games a little less "cartoonish"

I am full aware that's the "Nintendo way" but a bit more graphical realism won't tarnish Nintendo's rep. in the slightest......EVER.

That one scene in a river canyon looks photo-realistic... there are several stages in Mario Kart that are similar, where they bleed between cartoon and real world GFX.

I'm sold.

I agree the game could use a little polish. Some of the background detail looks really good which makes me think they purposely made the rest look like the N64/SNES stylings for nostalgic reasons. Maybe over the next 6-8 months they will fine tune the visuals

I also hope they consider multiplayer Co-op with online support too.
