Miyamoto confirmed Star Fox's return alongside Project Giant Robot and Project Guard. In Star Fox on Wii U, players will be able to steer their Arwing fighter in cockpit view using the GamePad, and the ship can now morph into a helicopter or Landmaster tank from Lylat Wars at will.

Moving on to Project Giant Robot, players will be able to create their own custom robots and battle them using motion and GamePad inputs in order to knock the other fighter down. It's also viewable in cockpit mode using the GamePad.

Lastly, Project Guard has players defending Earth from a robot invasion.
