In a move that leaves me puzzled, Nintendo has decided to skip online play for Starfox 64 3DS. The game will feature single cart local multiplayer with up to four friends, but will not allow you to challenge others across the globe. It's a real shame, unlike many games that shoehorn in online elements Starfox 64 3DS is definitely a game that could have really benefited from online competitive play. It would have given many gamers who had already experience the game on Nintendo 64 another reason outside of the 3D and enhanced graphics to purchase this game. I hope this doesn't mean there won't be online scoreboards as well, as that would be another major missed opportunity.
