Hate bumping into things and kinda just getting hung up, it looks and feels lame, after the signature Star Fox "shake" with your vessel shaking and turning red, I also dislike having to push the left bumper fully in to shoot when flying. Personally, I'm in love with the graphics. I gonna play through it again.

Yeah, it's awesome! Definitely an underrated gem; possibly my favorite game in the series - no joke. I think after Starfox Adventures people were craving another SF64 so badly that they completely panned this game just because it has on-foot missions.
Sure, the controls for those moments on the ground are a little weird at first, but they're easy to get used to, and they do give you 2 other optional layouts if you don't like the default.
Also, what I never hear recognized is just how diverse those on-foot missions can be. It's fun being able to hop in the Landmaster or even the Arwing mid-mission. That, the more story-based CGI cut-scenes, and moments like when you get to literally ride on the wing of Falco's ship and shoot down baddies really make the Starfox team feel more real than ever.
I love it.

SOOOOOO GOOOd.
Seriously. Apparently that version is fucked due to an attempt to rebalance or something? but fuckit, I don't care. I love it too much.

Honestly, this is the only version I've ever played, but I think peoples' main problem with it is trying to play it with the GC controller. Capcom integrated some weird, shitty-ass control scheme designed specifically for the button layout, but it plays like shit.
Luckily, that GC-specific mode is optional and a more normal (and completely customizable) control scheme is readily available. The only problem with that is, "dashing/rolling" is performed by hitting both B + Y; which is difficult. So I just changed the "Z" button to act as both those buttons being pressed, rather than doing an unnecessary taunt. I don't mind it.
