April 28, 2007 - Perhaps the most high-profile game of the Super Nintendo era to have suffered the fate of being canned is Nintendo's StarFox 2, which was set to expand upon the original's use of the Super FX chip, boasting hordes of battleships and assault fighters in spectacular 3D. Internal development issues, the title's high production values, and the impending launch of the Nintendo 64 led to the game never seeing a release.

Asked, generally, about such games in a new interview with GameHead, Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto said, “One good example would be a game that we had been working on for the SNES, called Starfox 2 - the sequel to the original Starfox. And while we'd worked on that game for quite a while, it ultimately got put on the pending list, so to speak. We have been looking at ways of maybe trying to bring a product like that back to life, and we have been looking at what we could do with that on the Nintendo DS.”
