Star Fox 64 (or Lylat Wars depending on where you’re from) was one of the standout titles of the Nintendo 64 for many people. If there’s one thing that I think all Star Fox fans can agree upon, it’s that this game is an absolute classic. But why is this the case? Why do people remember Star Fox 64 so fondly, more so than any of its predecessors and successors alike? And to add to that point: why is the Star Fox franchise eternally stuck in a loop of recreating the same formula that it defined. To put it the simplest way possible: Star Fox 64 is just a really good game. Wanna know why? Well, I’m FibreOpticBroadbean and this is The Perfect Simplicity of Star Fox 64.

I remember finding the waterfall the first time it was actually shocking
When I get a 3DS someday, I will 100% be buying the starfox 64 remake on it!
i always found the shot of them running with great fox flying behind them funny. Like someone just stole the ship and they are chasing after it on foot in desperation,
still a amazing game to this day
100% great video.
Honestly the hard ending of this game gives me goosebumps, loved the video man!
when's the next episode of pokemon insurgence
Thanks for this video! I really wish they would do a good remake or predecessor.
Thank you for this childhood game that is near and dear to my heart.
Perfect game and great review; I miss when video games were so unpretentious and no rail shooter has ever topped Star Fox 64 imo
honesty star fox 643D is I think the best version in the series as in it does have better looking graphics and some extra tweaks but it's essentially the 64 game looking better
I gave away my N64 a couple years ago to my cousin, who gave it to me in the first place, and all the games and controllers. But let me tell you.. if I ever make enough money to buy myself another N64 the first game I'm buying is Star Fox 64. I still play it on my 2ds but it just isn't the same as using those amazing old school controller. This game is still my favorite game to ever play.
Falco: "I guess I should be thankful."
Well, it's a huge step up from "Mind your own business, Fox!!"
I played all of the games you mentioned in the beginning of the video!
"Never give up! Trust your instincts!"
Perfect game
I really feel like its a near-masterpiece.
There are so many great quotes in this game, but which one do you think is the best? Reply with some of your personal favourites!
I wish star fox assault would get the recognition it deserves it's far better than star fox 64.
Wow, i never saw that Warp Zone in my entire life. This game keeps surprising me even after all this time.
One of the best endings in a video game.
This was incredibly well written. Well done.
So many childhood memories from this game. I remember being a kid and for months not knowing how to get to Sector Y until my friend came over to show me a "secret passage" he heard from another kid on the playground. Then together we all watched Andross disintegrate not into a robot but into his brain form. That was such a wow moment from an incredible game.
My new idea make part 2
At the end of the game when the screen turned white unexpectedly, as a kid it felt so long i thought the console froze up…. Till the dialog came thru. …. Seeing it again now, the white shows up what feels like a quick moment in comparison. … Game is a 10/10! Excellent replay value and super fun.
Starfox 64 was is and always will be steaming hot garbage with garbage controls, the land master is unresponsive mainly in the thrusters, and slippy and peppy or even falco being on your team but not doing absolutely Shit the entire game literally. They don't shoot enemies they just fly around and whine in your ear that they need help. The flying is absolute dog shot especially in the free flying missions.
