Star Fox 64 Comparison - Nintendo 3DS Vs. Nintendo 64

[@lukasm6905]

The 3DS version looks as if it was the GameCube version of the original game

[@Z-Mikes00]

3ds hardware is very comparable to the gamecube even the new 3ds has some aspects that are not only better than the gcn but the wii

[@georgezee5173]

Nah... It's obviusly an upgrade from the N64 version, but it's not using the potential of the 3DS/NGC at all. It's like a 1.5 version of the N64 game.

[@anthonystevenson830]

3d version has better graphics but the N64 has the better experience. It's always the same when they try to remake or remaster classics games that made our childhood.

[@a-dallas-184]

to be honest...the n64 looks slightly sharper than the 3ds version.

[@mikeexits]

That's because it's a higher resolution.

[@timkasansky2528]

you're not even supposed to play 3ds on screens larger than 400x240.

[@Martyste]

@@mikeexits N64 was emulated. Normally it would be 304x224, lower than the 3DS's 400x240.

[@Adventureruler]

Such a badass game

[@Virosaa]

aquas is a way better experience on the n64. the 3ds version is more bright overall. The atmosphere of the game is just meh compared to the n64

[@Eevee860]

Gameplay is the only important part, also aquas on n64 is so dark you can't see anything, it's horrible

[@Virosaa]

@@Eevee860 Thats why you used the torpedos to illuminate your surroundings🤣Anyway,n64 was better for me.

[@georgezee5173]

@@Virosaa I do prefer the ambience on the N64 original game most of the time.

[@georgezee5173]

@@Eevee860 The whole point of that stage was to make the bottom of the ocean look like outerspace. It had this unnerving feeling about it, where things could jump at you at any moment. Even though in the 3DS version they show that aspect as well, the fact that you start in a beautiful looking tropical-like part kind of ruins that feeling of dread that the original one had since all you knew about that ocean was that it's dark and dangerous.

[@ZA-7]

Space levels looks better on the n64 version (in my opinion) , this becuase the shadows are too basic and space is dark.

[@forrestannis909]

Anyone know what theme Aquas used? Doesn't sound familiar to me, can't be Command, I know it's not from 64, Assault, or Zero, definitely not the original or Star Fox 2. Could it be from Adventures?

[@Superturbo93blanka]

Yes, it is from Star Fox Adventures: Ocean force point temple theme music.

[@forrestannis909]

Interesting. Love that you played Sargasso at the Solar part by the way. My favorite part of the Assault soundtrack with one of my favorite 64 levels along with Sector X.

[@Superturbo93blanka]

@forrestannis909 Thank you. I find it to be a perfect combination between them.

[@forrestannis909]

Imagine the Solar theme from both versions of 64 & the Sargasso theme from Assault mixed together & with the resulting version of the Solar theme having the combined sound fonts of every Solar remix in Command then that resulting Solar theme mixed with Sargasso, that would sound perfect.

[@Superturbo93blanka]

​@forrestannis909 Indeed it would have been perfect music for that.

[@celinesenden4142]

3d version is better
