Star Fox 64

Infinite Point Match
By: Kevin Mumm

To Extend a point match as long as you want to, first begin a three player, five point match. The trick is to have the first player to rack up four wins and then defet two player simultsneously. If the two players are defeted at the exact same time, the win counter will move to six points, going past the normal limit of 5 points.The match will continue till you restart the game or turn it off.This trick works better if the two "target" players are characters, not tanks or Arwings.

Pyramid Game

This is a cool Multi-player game for Star Fox 64. First, you must have four players and be able to play as a tank or single character(no vehicle). You must select Corneria as the battle arena. Now, three players are single characters each must find a large pyramid. One player will be a tank and try to run over the other players. The object of the game is that the other three players must try to take over the other players' pyramid by shooting each other. When someone has captured all the pyramids he must defend himself against the tank. If the tank runs over the other player, he wins. If the person defending himself defeats the tank, he wins.

Cool Glitch

Select the TANK in vs. mode, and go to Corneria. Once there, head towards one of the towers, and fly up it. As soon as you see the top, DROP!!! You will fall inside of the building! You can't move (except for left and right) but you can shoot out at other players. They, however, can't shoot you!!! You are IMMORTAL!!!!! Sometimes though, you will slip out of the building, in which case, simply go back in. It may take a few tries to get completely stuck, but the near assured victory is well worth it!

Play Expert Battle Mode

Put the main game on expert mode, then go down to VS mode and select it. In VS mode it will be just like expert mode. When you crash once you will lose your wing, and there are also more enemies in Katina.

Fly Under Water with an Arwing

In the Zoness level when you see the "Enemy Tankers" fly at water level but not to the point of colliding with the water... then crash into the side of the tanker. Your arwing will be pushed under water for about 4 seconds and you can still fire!

Play Battle Mode with Landmaster Tanks

To get the tanks in Battle Mode, you need to only acquire a medal on Venom (the hard route).

Play Battle Mode on Foot

To play as the Star Fox members (on foot), simply play the game on Expert Mode and acquire a medal on Venom (the hard route).

Fight Star Wolf in the Training Mode

Once you get to the All-Range mode during your Training, you can practice against Star Wolf -- that is, if you actually want to. Just get 100 hits and Star Wolf ships will appear.

Go off radar

When you are playing in a 2 to 4 player battle royal or point match, you can go off radar! To do this you must fly as close to the ground as possible and you will not appear on other player's radar. This is very useful since you can sneak up on your friends and blast them down before they figure out you're even near them!

Vehicle Guide

In order to maximize your score it is important to master every aspect of your vehicle's control. Here is a quick guide to some of the craft's capabilities.

Arwing

Throttle

A lot of the levels require you to slow down in order to get the maximum amount of kills (especially Area 6). Get used to playing whilst holding down the break button.

Lock On Blast

By holding down the fire button you can build up a charge of green energy that has a larger blast radius then your regular laser. Once the blast is charged simply move your aiming target over an enemy to lock on. Press the button again to release. If you hit an enemy with an energy blast without locking on, you will automatically get a +1 hit.

Homing Bomb

After you have charged up a green energy blast and locked on to an enemy target, try launching a bomb instead. The bomb will actually home in on your target like the energy blast would. Deadly.

Premature Bomb Detonation

Once you have launched a bomb you can detonate it at any time by simply tapping the bomb button again. Useful for short range targets. Or if you miss.

Sharp Turning

In the 360 degree levels you can turn left or right faster by rolling whilst turning. Press left or right and repeatedly tap the Z or R button respectively to turn faster. Also, try breaking whilst turning for a tighter turn radius.

Looping and Immelman

If your throttle meter is full you can perform one of the Arwing's two 'special' maneuvers by pressing down and either accelerate or break. The loop is handy for evading enemies on your tail and collecting items stacked vertically, while the Immelman allows for a quick turn around in the 360 arenas.

Landmaster

Hover

The Landmaster's most useful power is the ability to hover momentarily by holding down Z and R simultaneously This allows you to both fly over obstacles and get a better trajectory for shots when there is something is blocking your path.

Roll

By double tapping either the L or R button you can make your Landmaster roll. In the four player Vs mode this makes your tank effectively turn around, like the Arwing's Immelman.

Blue Mariner

Lock On

The Submarine's lock on system differs from the other two vehicles, in that you have use the Bomb button to fire missiles, and you do not need to charge them up first. However, you can only have ONE MISSILE ON SCREEN at a time. Once that missile detonates you can fire the next. Be careful you don't fire a missile at something in distance when you need to shoot multiple targets in the foreground. Click your stick left or right to lock on to your next target.
