That was a weird marketing decision. I rented "Starwing" a couple of times on my SNES and loved it. They should have called it Starfox 64 or at least Starwing 64 over here too, I didn't realise it was the same shit, ended up getting PS. That alone probably wouldn't have changed my choice of console, but at least I would have been hyping it up during recess to other kids at school.

They had licensing issues with the UK release or something.

It was super ironic, IIRC. Someone over there had the rights to Star Fox, but the game that was Star Fox never got released over there or something.

Google it if I've piqued your interest, because I just confused myself trying to reiterate it.
