How do I get 6 bombs?! It seems so random. But loving the heck out of it. I swear those info holo deck things were made to flesh out a sequel already in the works!

Haven't had a chance to play my copy yet (Kirby Air Riders currently has the slot), but came across this on YouTube so thought I'd share it. It's well-done.

« Last post by pokepal148 on July 11, 2026, 10:12:28 PM »Apparently Retrofighters took another stab at an aftermarket Playstation controller with the Defender Pro. The Defender was a solid controller but the d-pad had occasional double input issues and it ultimately just didn't feel like a Playstation controller. Alot of retrofighters controllers look like the same controller just with different buttons slapped on for different consoles and the original defender definitely felt more like a generic Xbox or Switch style controller than something I would associate with the Playstation which I found kinda off putting. The Defender Pro is redesigned to be more similar to the wireless Logitech PS2 controller I am very fond of and it has some nice features like trigger stoppers to make me happy, along with support for stuff like sixaxis and pressure sensitive buttons. Also if I understand it correctly it connects to the PS1/2 through a 2.4ghz connection and adapter while it connects to the PS3 through Bluetooth and there's a switch on the back to swap between them so you could theoretically use the one controller for both of those systems which is useful for the rational human beings who didn't shell out for a Frankenstein modded PS3 for PS2 games like I did.Whoever decided that the Dualshock 3 should only charge from a USB charger with an active data connection should be thrown into the sun.
It sure makes safely charging the things a gamble in one of the biggest lightning sites in the world in the middle of the summer storm season, that's for sure. Didn't think I'd ever miss Rest Mode this much.
I'm waiting to see what the feedback on it is like but I am definitely hopeful.

I'm reading analysts are seeing this as a shadow announcement of the PS6 launch date.
For all the hate Nintendo is getting for Key Cards, at least they are keeping physical media and also DROPPING prices of digital games. Starfox is a much easier pill to swallow as a remake with it being $50. Also definitely going for Splatoon Raiders with it being $50 as well. Can't remember games being this cheap since Gamecube/Wii days.

I'm pumped to play some.Hey if any of you see me online, I will drop everything if you shoot over an invite to Star Fox Battle Mode. I used to dream about playing Star Fox online with this community and now we have a worthwhile online mode to play. Command just wasn’t it. Also if anyone discovers any strategy to stay out of the line of fire please tell me. I feel like a sitting duck half the time.
I actually got a bit of decision paralysis with route options for my first run. Ended up deciding to go for the "Miyamoto route" but couldn't bear to fail Bill. It didn't matter because I messed up sector X so now I'm on Macbeth.
I think we are friends, if not I’ll add you this evening. I’ve got a ton of NWR friends that carried over all the way from the 3DS days. Also what’s the Miyamoto route?
I’ve got 20 hours clocked since launch. Played the Campaign 3 times but haven’t done the hard route yet trying to get that new Venom 1 medal. Completed 3 stages challenge mode and been having a really good time reading through intel files. But that multiplayer, I am so incredibly hooked! I could live with these 3 stages and modes for a good long time though of course I do want more. The thing is the straight up raw gameplay in multiplayer is so well done. Escorting friends back to base, keeping enemies off of them. Dodging enemy fighters between the rock formations or floating debris and launching a bomb straight into the walls when I can’t get behind them is so good! No game breaking bugs yet. It feels good! My friends list is lit up with Star Fox! The future is bright!
I've been too busy to log back on my Switch so I'll check if we are friends this weekend.
The Miyamoto route is based off an interview where he mentioned his preferred route. Corneria -> Sector Y -> Katina -> Sector X -> Sector Z -> Area 6 -> Venom.
Its the only route with all three "letter sectors". And it charts a bit of a rise, fall, and rise again for the crew. They start off riding high until Katina where they fail. Then they work their way back and through the warp zone end up on the back door to Venom. The only thing I wish I could squeeze is an initial Star Wolf confrontation because that Venom fight really deserves a prior conflict.
In fact I think my next route will be through Fichina and Venom 2 just for that experience again.

(At least remove the spam link.)
