- —ROB 64
ROB 64, known as NUS64 (ナウス 64 Nausu Rokujūyon) in Japan, is the robotic operator of Star Fox team's mothership, the Great Fox.
Information
ROB's name is a reference to the NES accessory R.O.B.(Robotic Operating Buddy), to which he bears a more than passing resemblance. The "64" is derived from the console of his first appearance, the Nintendo 64.
ROB's Japanese name, "NUS", stands for "Nintendo Ultra Sixty-four," the original name of the Nintendo 64 system, and is part of the serial number of all N64 components: the controller, for example, is NUS-005. Like with his English name, the 64 is derived from the console of his first appearance.
ROB has the ability to completely control the Great Fox, technically making the ship fully autonomous. It is also networked to the ship's main computers, allowing ROB to process any information requested by the Star Fox Team. ROB can also use the ship's transfer device to send vehicles and items to Star Fox team members in the field.
Appearances
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 rings, smart bombs, lasers, 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.
Star Fox Adventures

ROB appeared again in Star Fox Adventures. 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.
Star Fox Assault
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 Apraroid Queen had used ROB's voice to try and convince the team to "join them".
Star Fox Command
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.
Voicing
ROB is voiced by Daisuke Sakaguchi in the Japanese version of Star Fox 64, and by David Frederick White in the English version. In Star Fox Adventures, his voice is performed by John Silke. In Star Fox: Assault's Japanese version, he is voiced by Yusuke Numata and by Dex Manley in the English version.
