Platinum Games boss Hideki Kamiya has stated that he wants to create a brand new Star Fox game ... at gunpoint. Apparently, it would not be enough for Nintendo to simply ask the Bayonetta developer. Despite seeming to really want to make it, Kamiya would rather make it after staring down the barrel of a .45.
"I want Nintendo's staff to come to Platinum, stick guns at us and tell us 'You guys make a new Star Fox'," stated Kamiya after learning that Nintendo developer Shigeru Miyamoto has expressed a desire for a brand new Star Fox title.
Kamiya also revealed that he was working on a 3D shooting game for Capcom many years ago, but when he discovered Star Fox 64, he gave up because the classic title was too satisfying and he felt there was no need for his own game. He praised Star Fox 64 for its unique scenario and "heated battles."
Seems like he's really fond of the series, so I have no idea why he wants to do it at gunpoint when it seems he'd happily do it under any circumstance. Maybe he's got a real kink for hostage scenarios. Some people are like that, and they get themselves into all sorts of trouble.

I had no idea people disliked the Bayonetta missile-riding. I was grinning like a baby after doing several lines of cocaine playing that Space Harrier throwback.
I don't know if Platinum is the right studio for it, but somebody should make a sequel, spiritual successor, or something related to Star Fox that isn't a piece of shit like Adventures.
Come on Nintendo! Give the franchise to the creator of Okami! Now!!
What was wrong with the motorcycle and missile levels? I can't imagine Bayonetta without them.
I'd rather they give it to someone like Treasure, but they've already made Sin and Punishment 2, so what do I need Star Fox for? Really?
The Space Harrier level was total crap, but I would imagine that if they took the time to build the right mechanics for an entire game, Kamiya could probably pull it off. If anything, the end result would be interesting at the very least.
But really, let them make the darn game if they are already lifting up their butts in offer.
Nintendo is so franchise-happy that for them, keeping their fringe franchises going is almost like innovation.
Then Star Fox Adventure came out and I cried, that game and assault were terrible.
Bayonetta was amazing, I really hope Platinum games works on this project.
Though originally it wasn't even part of the Starfox franchise. It was called Dinosaur Planet. But then Miyamoto came in and told Rare to change it to Starfox Adventures because the main character looked like Fox. So the story had to be altered.
NOW.
I don't see how they couldn't make a better game than what has been released after 64.
