@SteffoSpieler@fellies.social Wikipedia is a bit weird about it.
So, here is how I count it:
Starfox on the Super Nintendo.
Starfox 64 is a direct remake of Starfox of the Super Nintendo. Starfox 64 3D on the 3DS is a remake/remaster (of that remake). Starfox Zero is a remake of Starfox 64 again (Wikipedia says it's a "reimagining" instead of a "remake", but like... yeah, no x3) and then now the new Star Fox on Switch 2, which is another remake.
That's 5 games, that are essentially, the same game with the same story, just retold again and again.

@Hatwolf@meow.social I see. Technically, remaster, remake, and reimagining do have their respective meaning. Remaster: Original code running, but some stuff improved. Remake: Nothing of the original code left; it's all new. Reimagining: The game is different. (As far as I picked up in the last few years at least.)
