Nintendo made a Star Fox anime 10 years ago, and you can watch it for free on YouTube

The Super Mario Galaxy Moviecrash-landed in theaters on April 1. But even before this frenetic sequel to The Super Mario Bros. Moviewas released, Nintendo and Universal Pictures unveiled a character poster for Fox McCloud, the protagonist of Shigeru Miyamoto’s Star Foxvideo game series. This was a surprise for all fans. How would the anthropomorphic pilot from a completely different Nintendo franchise slot into the Mario verse? And does this mean a Star Fox movie is in the works? Probably not, but in the meantime, you can watch an animated Star Fox short for free on YouTube.
