Once thought lost to time, Star Fox 2 became one of gaming’s greatest legends — a fully finished Super Nintendo sequel shelved just before release.

When it finally resurfaced decades later on the SNES Classic, fans got to experience a time capsule of bold ideas and experimental design. It wasn’t perfect — but it was fearless. Star Fox 2 was the game that showed how far Miyamoto’s team was willing to fly for innovation, even if it meant staying grounded for 20 years.
