have you duys ever thought of trying to put this game on the wii's virtual console. apparently sometime in the future nintendo will allow independant developers put their games on the VC. even if nintendo makes a profit from your game it will get huge exposure. thoughts?

any nintendo involvement would mean krysatal involvement along with the crappy storyline rare started.

besides, freespace cant go "wii"

Yes there has been thought

Yes it's an interesting concept

But it can't be done due to both Coypright laws, conversion problems and just overall would take TOO MUCH FRIGGIN TIME

Few things of note:

1) This is a TC for Freespace. Under the license terms of FS's code release, the executables created from the code can never be sold.
2) To use any of the models from this would be to use the POF file format. (Parallax object file) The format is still owned by Interplay.
3) The wii works in ways entirely different than a normal computer; and would require more code changes than mod content changes to even run. The SoL team aren't coders, they are modellers, FREDders, and artists.

Well, we (using that liberally) could always... you know..... drop the mission loop where Fox is sent off on a mission so that Slippy and Falco can shower together.....

Arent bird supposed to eat frogs? Ooooh wait, that came out wrong....

BuT still, i wouldnt mind a little fox-krystal action.

But youre not going to have character models right? only ships.

The character known as Krystal is not part of the SoL story line as it takes place before Starfox: Adventures. As for the Nintendo Wii, I doubt it has the proper hardware to run SoL. The controls alone would require a more complex controller than what the Wii currently has available to it.

this is an adventures prequel/ and or replacement. so maybe in the cutscenes. *imagines the developers desperatly trying to play the parts of fox, Krystal, slippy, peppy and falco*

maybe cutscenes are a bad idea :\

edit: dangit, J! you like posting at the same time as me, dont you.

No, no SF2 characters. ;)

There will be at least one new character though.
