Revision as of 21:01, 14 April 2016

A comprehensive list of games and spin-off media that feature ROB as a supporting character.

Star Fox 64/3D

R.o

ROB 64 in Star Fox 64.

ROB's debut in the Star Fox series was in Star Fox 64. His role in the game was operating and maintaining the Great Fox. When needed, ROB sent supply boxes that contained ringssmart bombslasers, or Wing gyro from the mothership. ROB also repaired the shield-depleted Arwings of Fox's teammates, and would be done with fixing them by the time Fox had finished the next level. ROB only serves to relay information to the pilots, such as "Location confirmed. Sending supplies." or "Great Fox will cover you." In this game, ROB is the most analytical and does not appear beyond the communications channel.

Instruction book description

Operating from the mothership Great Fox, ROB works closely with the Star Fox team offering support when necessary.

Strategy Guide description

ROB 64, the robotic navigator aboard Great Fox, considers Slippy its best friend, probably because Slippy regularly recharges ROB's proton packs.
—Official Nintendo Power Player's Guide, pg 8.

Call for backup

ROB 64 will sometimes contact you via sub-space radio during battle. When you hear a chime and see a yellow icon flash, press the right C Button to open a channel. ROB will send a supply container with an item in it. To find other items and identify strategic points in each mission, refer to the battle maps on the following pages. The chart below is a key to the icons on the map and tactical readouts.
—Official Nintendo Power Player's Guide, pg 16.

Star Fox Adventures

ROB Star Fox adventures

ROB in Star Fox Adventures.

ROB appeared again in Star Fox Adventuressometimes going by the name of ROB The Robot (which may have been influenced by the developer change). He helped with processing saved data. His role was very minor in this game, but he appeared in the ending scene along with the other members of the Star Fox team. Also in this game, ROB seems to have human-like, changing personalities. This may be due to his rebuilding by Slippy Toad. This is the first time he appeared in full physical form as he was restricted to the communications channel during the Lylat Wars.

Instruction book description

After several rebuilds by Slippy, ROB has now been infused with much more personality and has gradually become recognized by all as a fully-fledged member of the Star Fox team.

Star Fox: Assault

ROB 64 Assault Ending

ROB / NUS64 in the ending cutscene.

ROB served a role in Assault similar to the one he had in Star Fox 64. He was nearly destroyed when Peppy Hare crashed the Great Fox into the shield protecting the entrance to the Aparoid Queen's lair, but Peppy and ROB managed to use an escape pod before the ship was destroyed. The Aparoid Queen had used ROB's voice to try and convince the team to "join them".

Instruction book description

The observation and analysis robot assigned to the Great Fox. His main duties are to assist Peppy and transfer vehicles to Fox and company.

Star Fox Command

ROB 64

ROB 64'S Biography.

ROB returns in Star Fox Command, piloting the new version of the Great Fox in the map mode, and also giving some advice to Fox and the other characters during the missions. On some paths in the game, ROB joins Star Wolf Team when no "hero" character is around to play as. In this game, he, like in Adventures, becomes more humanoid, even uttering sarcastic remarks. For instance, if the Great Fox is destroyed, ROB says, "Goodbye cruel world." He even has veiled feelings for Lucy Hare, when he remarks to her that he'd do anything for her.

Star Fox Zero

SFZ ROB64

ROB on the Communications Channel in Star Fox Zero.

ROB returns in Star Fox Zero, acting exactly like he has done before in Command, giving necessary advice and stays on the comms like in Star Fox 64. ROB's appearance is now a combination of his Star Fox 64 3D and Star Fox: Assault character design.

ROB 64

Robotic operator of Star Fox team's mothership, the Great Fox, ROB is networked to the ship's main computers, allowing him to process any requests by the Star Fox Team and send vehicles and items to team members in the field.
—Star Fox Zero

Super Smash Bros. Series

ROB is only mentioned in the Great Fox's trophy in Super Smash Bros. Melee. He appears as both a Trophy and stickers in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. His trophies are both modelled on his Star Fox: Assault character artwork, since ROB lacks a full physical appearance in Star Fox 64 3D. ROB appears in just one of the hidden taunt conversions where he recites a quote spoken in Assault when an Aparoid Missile appears on radar.

ROB's trophy.

A robot who assists the Star Fox team, though with statements like "zero percent possibility of success," he's definitely not the team's morale officer. His frank anyalsis does help the team hone their plans, and with the support from him and Peppy, the pilots can stay focused on the fighting.
NA release
A robot that assists the Star Fox team. Sometimes he says rather blunt and depressing things about how they have a "zero percent possibility of success", but it only helps them hone their plans based on his expert analysis. With support from him and Peppy, the pilots can keep their minds on the action.
