Here's my playthrough of Expert Mode in Star Fox 64!

Expert Mode is unlocked after earning all 15 Medals in the normal mode! In Expert Mode, there's more enemies, the Arwing takes twice as much damage as it did before, the Arwing now instantly loses a wing and all it's laser upgrades just after 1 crash, a message from ROB 64 in Sector Y exclusive to this mode, a special illustration shown after the hard and easy ending, and as you saw on the Thumbnail, Fox wears sunglasses just like his dad.

I loved Star Fox 64 so much as a kid when I played it on the Wii so many years ago! It's gameplay is amazing, the action is intense, and the interactions with all the characters are really fun to listen to!

This copy of the game I have, was previously my cousin's. He gave it to me in 2015 since he no longer had his N64. This game is actually easier to play with the Original N64 controller compared to the Wii Classic Controller, and it felt great to finally play this game with the Rumble Pak! X3
