History YMMV / StarFox2

** Thanks to the ContentLeak mentioned on the Trivia page, the unused human woman pilot has gotten a bit of a following for the potential of changing up what species are represented in the Lylat system, even going to the point of having her grayscale [=CSS=] graphics paint her as a SassyBlackWoman.

** Despite Fay and Miyu not appearing outside of this game, both have developed dedicated followings amongst the fandom for being amongst Star Fox's only major female members and their appealing designs, to the point that many fans want them to reappear in the series as major characters, with some going as far as to consider them to be better female characters than the more promiment and Main/{{Base Breaking|Character}} Krystal, despite once again, lacking any other appearances outside of this game. Thier followings would only increase after the game got Main/{{Uncancelled}} and was released to the public.

** Despite Fay and Miyu not appearing outside of this game (which was also cancelled to boot), both have developed dedicated followings amongst the fandom for being amongst Star Fox's only major female members and their appealing designs, to the point that many fans want them to reappear in the series as major characters (despite their chances being low), with some going as far as to consider them to be better female characters than the more promiment and Main/{{Base Breaking|Character}} Krystal, despite once again, lacking any appearances outside of this game. Thier followings would only increase after the game got Main/{{Uncancelled}} and was released to the public.

* EightPointEight: [[TheShelfOfMovieLanguishment The game was shipped more than 20 years later than its intended release date]]. Even knowing this, many (but not all) critics judged this game by modern releases rather than [[SeinfeldIsUnfunny by its own merits for the time]]. This resulted in [[https://www.ign.com/articles/2017/09/27/star-fox-2-review IGN]] giving the game a mere "5.0".

** Heavy Chariot and Knight Nack can both be time sinks if you don't have nova bombs or upgraded lasers. Heavy Chariot rolls around the room attempting to run you over, only being vulnerable to attack when it stops to open up its midsection to shoot some bombs. Attacking when it's wheels are closed will only result in your shots being reflected back at you. Knight Nack hides behind a large shield that also reflects your shots back at you, forcing you to either wait until it moves the shield to try and shoot you, or try and walk behind the boss to shoot it in the back (a feat that's made harder by the fact that there are several turrets in the room also shooting at you). On hard, it's possible to run into both bosses on the same play-through.
