I have to disagree with you, nothing can limit starfox from being many different genres, the closest example would be Star Wars franchise with its many spinoffs,,,also if u look at my original post I said Retro would be working on something unexpected like Advance Wars, and I also believe that Retro should work on something else other than StarFox.
interesting find :/ ,,,maybe some other game with another Disney protagonist ?
I agree 100 percent.
Every single time someone brings up how limiting Star Fox is in it's potential, all a person has to do is point to Star Wars and Star Trek.
Star Fox Adventures had the right idea about Star Fox visiting different planets and going on different adventures on each planet. Because Star Fox is all about space traveling from planet to planet, you can really do many types of genres.
I also had an idea for a Star Fox third person shooter where you control Star Fox and you team up with Falco, running and shooting through levels and solving puzzles together.
You could talk to Peppy on a codec thing for mission briefing like how Snake talks to the Colonel on his codec. Slippy would be in charge of sending you gadgets or vehicles for you and Falco to use on missions. He would be the mechanic.
