Mods please delete this thread. There's already a meta thread up about remakes as well as a bait thread saying that tekken for the ps2 is retro and a thread about how to use the Gamecube's GBA player. It's obvious that we're being flooded by troll posts.

Better than the arcade version. And 100% retro, as remakes are allowed.

But it is. Remakes are allowed, and it is a remake of a 1999 arcade game.

Star Fox 64 is really more of a "reimagining" because so many plot elements are different.

[Anonymous No.4754349]

>>4752198
It isn't really a remake. It is just one of the first examples of randomly not continuing a naming trend. It is basically Road Rash 4.

[Anonymous No.4754494]

People of this thread might care so I'll disseminate it here too.

Here is an imgur album with a fuckton of Clock Town screenshots from the remake and the original. I plan on making one for the other areas too later.

I'm not even sure if this was a remake, it's basically a massively upgraded home console version over the arcade version, similar to Soul Calibur. But TTT was a huge step, since I think Tag arcade was just the Tekken 3 engine.

Because I'm mocking and exposing your repeated, futile efforts at getting the rules of this board changed. Please, continue your useless endeavor of shitposting the board up because you can't get your way, it only makes me laugh even harder. Enjoy the mods deleting this thread just as they did to the previous one you made.

That doesn't even make any sense with the post you responded to. I think you need to go back and take Psych 101, because you obviously flunked it.

Anyway, even if you're not OP, you seem awfully upset that someone thinks this thread doesn't belong here, meaning you're just as complicit as the OP.

If Metroid Zero Mission is a remake, Star Fox 64 is a remake.

[Anonymous No.4755518]

>>4752180
In terms of game mechanics and QOL changes I'd agree. However, the new version loses out when it comes to the moral message and artstyle that the original had.

[Anonymous No.4755545]

>>4755072
Metroid Zero Mission replaced the first Metroid, while Star Fox 64 started a new series.

Star Fox 64 was a reboot.

[Anonymous No.4755715]

I've read a lot of people give shit to this game because of "ugly 3D graphics", but it has better level design than the original (almost the same, except some parts were altered or changed for the better), more boss fights, better final boss, lots of hidden stuff, a boss rush mode, customizable soundtrack and the top of the cherry is it has the original too.
I wish it was 2D instead of 3D though, but everything else this one does better.

[Anonymous No.4755786]

>>4755715
Having seen that game on the vita, much of its issues come from the washed out and generally crap psp screen. Many ugly psp games look MUCH better on the Vita, the colors actually existing and popping out.

The graphics are definitely worse than nice sprite work regardless, though.

[Anonymous No.4755793]

>>4755786
I've got a PSP 3000 and the game looks fine enough, I think most people play the game on emulators at stretched resolutions.
but yeah not as good as the spritework.
Some of the backgrounds and details are welcome though. Rondo's original 2D sprites are nice, but some of the backgrounds are lazy.

[Anonymous No.4755806]

>>4755793
I tested both that game and Ghouls and Ghosts on a co-workers Vita and they looked amazing. The colors were bold and vibrant. Both are ugly as sin on my PSP1000. 3000 is somewhere in between. This highlights one of the huge failings of the Vita, no disk drive. I simply won't buy a game I already own again digitally.

Unfortunately, "2.5d" platformers are just janky feeling regardless, even the good ones.

I'm not an expert in Star Fox, but the N64 game was too much different to me from the Snes one when I played it back then.
Btw I didn't like the 3DS release: small screen, less colorful, less charm, etc.

[Anonymous No.4757707]

You start, OP

[Anonymous No.4757731]

ZM does improve on the original, but it's also a downgrade in some ways. Every room has been made into a cramped box to accommodate the GBA's smaller screen resolution, and the openness of the game world was significantly scaled back. There are much fewer ways to sequence break, and ZM makes every effort to obstruct you from doing so.

I really hate all the hand-holding shit that Nintendo forces into these remakes. It doesn't make any sense. Casuals never cared for the original game, so why tailor the remake to them?

>ITT Remakes/remasters that are better than the originals
Conkers Live and Reloaded on the Xbox is visually superior to the N64 version. I still prefer the N64 version because they added a few pointless enemies in the Xbox.
