Doing barrel rolls is super great and all, but Star Fox 64 3DS didn't really capture my attention until today—when I showed up late to the party knowing about its "Online Stage Guide" features.
I'm not above perusing a FAQ now and then, so a little assistance for the Star Fox 64 noob—it's true, I've only played the original Star Fox for SNES—might come in handy. But it's the concept of in-game access to guides and online hints that may push me into purchasing the already-released Star Fox for 3DS.
I'd much rather see this in, say, Fire Emblem for 3DS and eventually the next Advance Wars, but we'll take this in baby steps.
