Miyamoto wanted an Arwing amiibo for Star Fox Zero, but had to give up on it

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 7 Comments

This information comes from Shigeru Miyamoto…

“We were working on a couple of ideas for the game for well over a year. There was one point where we had an Arwing Amiibo that would transform into the walker. But it was really tough to execute that in the normal Amiibo size and in a way that met with product-safety standards. We had to give up on it. For now, it’s only going to work with Fox and Falco from the Super Smash Bros. series. At some point, if we don’t have to do it at Amiibo size, it might be nice to have that Arwing that can transform into a walker.”
