See How the Star Fox Demo Stacks Up Against the N64 Classic

During today’s Nintendo Direct, Star Fox unveiled a complimentary demo that grants players immediate access to the prologue cutscene, the foundational tutorial, and the iconic Meteo stage.

Hands‑on experience with the demo lets us directly compare the polished remake to its beloved Nintendo 64 predecessor, especially when examining the revamped Meteo level showcased in the screenshots below.

Although brief, the demo delivers a satisfying half‑hour journey, featuring Meteo’s alternate wormhole exit and a clear demonstration of the remaster’s visual enhancements. As a longtime haptics enthusiast, I’m eager to revisit the experience to test the Joy‑Con 2’s mouse controls.
