    It’s one of Nintendo’s most distinct games in years, one that makes great use of the Wii U for a fun, distinct solo or co-op experience.

    The difference with Star Fox Guard is that, for me at least, it clicked automatically, and I was having a blast from the first moment.

And this was the bonus game. Let's see. Great control set up. No forced Motion controls. Simple to learn difficult to master. It's addicting.

    The Status of better than the game it came free with may well change if they patch in an no motion control mode for Starfox zero. Which wouldn't be entirely unwelcome.

It's a simple, but fast paced tower defense game that still takes lots of skill and strategy.

    Some flaws with the game is that even though its a simple game, they still try to complex it a little too much with a "story" and other features when all that needed to be done was level waves.

    All around, this game is a great bonus game. But why is the bonus game better than the main game?
