No StarFox for Wii

starfox The StarFox franchise has been dormant for a long time, and its creator Dylan Cuthbert just might be the one responsible for it.

In an interview with G4, the very vocal developer – who is also the president of PixelJunk developer Q-Games – stated that he isn’t interested in designing a new StarFox game for the Wii.

He notes that it’d be a big project with “like 100 people on the staff” as one of the main reasons. However, he didn’t rule out the possibility in the future, though he does note that using the Wii controller would be difficult.

“I don’t know…maybe the new one [Motion Plus.] Maybe that’d be more fun to play with. I don’t know. The Wii is a bit more of a toy, I think.”

Cuthbert also has a few choice words for Shigeru Miyamoto, who he points to as the driving force in taking Fox McCloud out of his Arwing and onto the ground. He says that “Miyamoto doesn’t really care about [the core fans]. He wants to make what he wants to make, so he just goes ahead and gets it done.”
