Addressing an erroneous edit where PG was listed as lead developer. That's false for many reasons. We follow a standard where lead auteur is often listed first because they are considered the primary designer. Sora and Mistwalker are listed as lead developers on all their games because despite having 2-3 employees, they are considered the design charge. Now back to Star Fox Zero, Miyamoto confirmed the game was a Project Garage work, and that the programming team was tinkering away on it for 6 years [1]. Now that actual programming team Miyamoto mentioned are the SOLE game programmer listed in the credits. Nintendo programmed the game in-house, and are the lead auteurs (directors, supervisors, producers are lead). Now then poster claimed despite any circumstance, PG has more staff in the game. That's not true. [2]. Those credits break down to about 30~ Nintendo, 30~ Platinum Games, NOA (localization), Mario Club (debug), About 50 outsourced ART staff to Bee Tribe, Alvion, Avant, Digital Media Lab, Inis Corp, Black Beard Design Studio, Lakshya Digital Pvt and music/sound outsourced to T'S Music Co., Ltd. and SoundDesignWave Co., ltd.

The box art for the game features, very prominently I might add, a beautiful calligraphy of the kanji character 零 (rei/zero) along with the words StarFox, with スターフォックスゼロ ZERO being featured underneath that. I was wondering if maybe we should mention in the opening like of the article that the game's title seems to be stylized as StarFox 零 in Japan as opposed to the standard スターフォックスゼロ?

Do it's a prequel of the original game Star Fox (1993), or a reboot of the franchise? 2.9.253.185 ( talk) 10:12, 25 November 2015 (UTC)
Given that the official link to the manual provides information about the specifics of the gameplay, characters, controls, contact information, etc., is there any reason it shouldn't be included as an external link? Publishers uploading official manuals is a relatively recent thing, which is why most articles don't have this, but is there any reason not to start including this in the article where possible? WP:VG/EL states that an appropriate reason to include a link in a video game article is: "If the page contains substantial information that is relevant but not necessarily encyclopedic in nature". The game's manual would seem to be the definition of this. Ozdarka ( talk) 01:19, 3 May 2016 (UTC)
