Can’t let you do that, Star Fox!

Earlier today, Nintendo started streaming a new Star Fox anime short. The feature, titled Star Fox Zero – The Battle Begins, was animated by Production I.G. and WIT Studios. Series creator Shigeru Miyamoto co-produced the project.

The feature was followed by a “Treehouse Live” feature, in which Nintendo’s Treehouse staff show off Star Fox Zero for Wii U.
