I really like Star Fox Adventures. I think it's a great Zelda clone done by a great software developer, using the larger world/lore built around the Star Fox universe. Consider that, outside of Star Fox 2 which didnt get release properly for decades, none of the other main line Star Fox games seem to know what to do narrative-ly other than tell the same basic story.

I think Adventures deserves a lot more credit than it receives.
"It's not a Star Fox shooter!" "They've made plenty of those."
"It's too cutesy and kiddie!" "Gasp! Nintendo and particularly its own franchises are famously known for their mature games! I'm also surprised."
"It doesn't include most of the other cast!" "No, and it doesn't have to. Most of you hate Slippy anyway. Imagine a cool backstory game about Star Wolf and Fox's dad? Let them expand with new stories and new gameplay styles."

It's not a perfect game at all, but I feel it's definitely more a victim of what it wasn't versus what it actually had to offer.
