Nintendo has released detailed requirements for earning medals in the classic video game StarFox 64. The game features a medal system that rewards players for achieving specific hit counts on each stage. These targets vary significantly depending on the mission difficulty and structure.
Exact hit counts needed to earn medals on all stages listed.
The medal requirements range from a low of 50 hits to a high of 300 hits. Fichina, also known as Fortuna, requires only 50 hits to earn its medal. Area 6 presents the toughest challenge, demanding 300 hits for the corresponding medal. Other stages like Zoness require 250 hits, while Meteo and Venom both require 200 hits. Several stages including Corneria, Sector Y, Katina, Aquas, Sector X, Titania, Macbeth, and Bolse all require 150 hits. Solar and Sector Z have lower thresholds, requiring just 100 hits each.
Nintendo has not announced any new pricing or availability information for this guide content. The data provided focuses exclusively on the gameplay mechanics and achievement criteria within the existing game title.
The guide highlights strategic differences in stage design. Venom's medal requirement of 200 hits can be easier to achieve if players approach the stage via Area 6 due to a specific Star Wolf encounter. This structural detail allows players to manage their hit counts more effectively in certain scenarios.
Video Games Chronicle published the guide outlining these specific hit targets. The information clarifies the exact numerical goals needed for each medal in the game.
