Star Fox 64 was approachable because it was simple. You were on rails...

Reggie and Iwata muppets aside Nintendo’s Digital Event kicks off with a bang. Nintendo took their digital stage to introduce a new set of Amiibo, Turbo Charge Donkey Kong with his vehicle the Barrel Blaster and new Hammer Slam Bowser (complete with mjolnir -like hammer) figure with his vehicle Clown Cruiser.
