Remember how fun Star Fox 64 was? And remember how fun the multiplayer was, with the tanks and the Arwings? If you were looking for a more portable version of that multiplayer experience ... well, you won't find it in Star Fox 64 3D. Oddly enough, the original multiplayer mode has been scrapped in favor of something different.
There are three different multiplayer modes: Survival, Score Attack and Time Attack. Survival is an elimination-based mode, while the latter two task players with scoring the most points overall in a match and in a set amount of time, respectively. Each of these game types modify the formula slightly, but overall the goal is the same: shoot everyone else and don't get shot yourself. It's basic stuff.

You'll be able to read our preview of the multiplayer mode later today.
Nintendo has found a neat way to make its perforated, environmentally-conscious 3DS packaging into something wonderful. Siliconera snagged an image of Star Fox 64 3D's case, which slips tiny avatars of the game's key players in each hole, Brady Bunch-style.
With The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D and Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D in stores, the Nintendo 3DS scene has calmed down a bit - at least in the United States. However overseas in Japan, Nintendo's next major release, Star Fox 64 3D, has just arrived.
