Star Fox Characters
Star Fox is the only multi-character universe where every character representing it is able to wall jump. The Star Fox characters are the only characters in Brawl (and thus the first in the series) to use special victory quotes depending on what other characters are present in the match. The Star Fox series has many characters throughout the series, both constant and not. Here's a list of them all from the original Star Fox to current date. Star Fox Team edit.
Star Fox (universe)Argonaut SoftwareQ-GamesRail shooterThird-Person ShooterConsole/platform of originFirst installment(1993)Latest installment(2017)Article on Lylat WikiThe Star Fox universe ( スターフォックス, Star Fox) refers to the Smash Bros. Series' collection of characters, stages, and properties that hail from Nintendo's series of primarily on-rails space shooter video games. While all have been published by Nintendo, most entries were developed by a different company: Argonaut Games (originally Argonaut Software), Nintendo themselves, Rare, Namco, Q-Games, and PlatinumGames. The series takes place in a fictional star system starring anthropomorphic animals, focusing on missions undertaken by the mercenary team Star Fox, led by the main character, to pilot Arwing spacecraft into battle against interplanetary threats.
Fox, his wingmate, and his rival mercenary have all been featured as playable characters in the Super Smash Bros. Contents.Franchise description During the early years of the NES and SNES, Nintendo worked closely with Argonaut Software, who had previously developed the 3D wireframe vector graphics-based space shooter Starglider for old computers such as Commodore 64.
With them, Nintendo developed a prototype for a similar style of game on the NES (aptly titled NESGlider), but even after it was ported to SNES, it was found that the SNES hardware's capabilities for anything presented in three dimensions was severely lacking. Argonaut agreed to develop a custom chip that the SNES could use to make it better at 3D, and the final product, the Super FX Chip, was more powerful than the SNES' standard processor by leaps and bounds. Nintendo designed their 3D rail-shooter game, (which was renamed Starwing for the PAL release due to trademark issues caused by an unrelated Atari 2600 game named Star Fox), based on this chip that was built into the game cartridge itself, and in doing so released the first 3D graphics accelerator in a consumer product. Meanwhile, Nintendo opted to avoid creating a game with all of the conventional trappings of a futuristic science fiction space shooter, and therefore gave Star Fox a cast of anthropomorphic animal characters, born out of Shigeru Miyamoto’s passion for drawing caricaturized humanoid animals in his school days.The 1993 release of Star Fox for the SNES was very significant in the gaming press and the eyes of the public, and thegame won many accolades both for its ambitious three-dimensional presentation and its shooting gameplay.
Star Fox is often credited with pioneering the use of 3D video game graphics on home consoles, and Nintendo took advantage of the opportunity to establish the IP as a series and franchise; however, despite a SNES sequel namedeffectively finishing development, Nintendo decided to cancel it, and a programmer explained it was because of the impending release of the Nintendo 64 and the presumed price increase of the upgraded Super FX 2 Chip (though the console would end up releasing much later than originally intended). Shigeru Miyamoto had wanted the next Star Fox game to make full use of the enormous advantages offered by the newest hardware, and so he produced, which is for many intents and purposes a series reboot and a remake combining the story and gameplay elements of both Star Fox and Star Fox 2. : The son of Star Fox team founder James McCloud, who was seemingly killed when his supposed teammate Pigma Dengar betrayed him to Andross' custody, Fox McCloud leads the Star Fox mercenary team in his father's name.
He starts out an amateur Arwing pilot but gets more confident and cockier over the years. His main arch-enemy at first is the villainous ape scientist Andross, but his chief rival pilot throughout the series is Wolf O'Donnell, and his romantic interest is the blue fox Krystal. Among his acts of interstellar heroism are destroying Andross more than once, rescuing Sauria the Dinosaur Planet, destroying the Aparoid Queen, and defeating the Anglars.
His design is based off his appearance from Star Fox 64. As a fighter in SSB, Fox uses a slow-ish blaster and is intermediately light.

Falco Lombardi is the smart-mouthed but experienced and trustworthy companion member of the Star Fox team, and is the most adept Arwing pilot of Fox's wingmates. His past is a mystery to the team, and after Star Fox 64 he left the team for personal reasons, mainly for being tired and bored. However,after Star Fox Adventures, he has since returned to his post to rediscover the thrill of flying with the team. It is hinted that Falco was formerly a member of a gang.
Like Fox, Falco's design is based off his appearance from Star Fox 64. As a Melee fighter, Falco is a modified version of Fox whose statistics more closely resemble the SSB version of Fox, and his slower blaster features knockback. He is a top-tier ranked fighter as well for his blend of speed and power, only falling short to Fox.Stages Super Smash Bros. Melee features two Star Fox-themed stages:. : Fox's longtime archrival and leader of the Star Wolf mercenary team makes his playable debut in Brawl. He has a unique feral style as opposed to the other characters, and his normal attacks are visually distinct (he uses claws and occasionally his legs). His special moves are inspired by Fox and Falco's, but are heavily modified to make him more distinct.
His Final Smash is also the Landmaster, but unlike Fox and Falco's it deals more damage and knockback at the expense of a shorter duration.
