SHOOSH YEAH!! I first saw him in the N64 Version, I freaked me out....viewing my cousin playing it years ago and Andross sucking in the Arwing......DUDE YOU COULD SEE DOWN THE GUYS THROAT!!!!
@@mrdaviddesertfire6801 emperor palpatine did not start off as a scientist working for the good guys. He was always bad. He implemented himself into the good government and helped to turn it bad.
Andross is Nintendo's most dangerous villain hands down. Even Ganon, as magically potent as he is, could only hope to amass planetary control at best. He was defeated by one kid with a magic sword. Andross actually mannaged to take over an entire system. It took the combined efforts of the entire system to beat him. Given time I think Andross would have proven to be far more evil as well. His goal of taking over is not logically motive based. He isn't building a better future or undoing some past transgression. His plans are purly psychotic and his use of his intelligence has no restraint or accountability. He is perfectly content taking entire races and using them for biological weapon experiments. Not to mention he is persistent as fuck at surviving and rebuilding. Limitless technology and resources under the control of a biologically mutated super brain that cares only about dominating and experimenting. If the Venomian army had won, I have no doubt Andross would have betrayed them as well. Rendering his own loyal forces into test subjects. It's too bad they don't treat this character with more respect in the franchise. Maybe they try not to because Andross can't be translated into a kid freindly experience like Bowser. Genocide is bad for buisness.
I think stages like Sector X really give you an insight into the truly unstable nature of Andross's psyche; You show up in a previously uninhabited sector of space, having been told that there is an enemy base there working on some secret weapon. You later find out that not only is the base gone, but that Andross's "secret weapon", a relatively advanced artificial intelligence piloting an incomplete robot, is responsible. And that's truly frightening; the fact that Andross is so intelligent that he is capable of creating intelligent artificial life and a "living" weapon powerful enough to wipe out a whole base and the hundreds of soldiers garrisoned there, so insane that he thinks nothing of letting these loyal soldiers die as fodder to test his new weapon, and so vain and egotistical that he would make such a weapon who's only thoughts at all are of meeting/worshiping his "creator", and destroying his enemies. Then again, as for what you said about him being Nintendo's most dangerous villain... Giygas would have something to say about that. Even staying within the same genre, I would pit Mother Brain against Andross. That would be a close battle.
Andross is such an underrated villain. Arguably one of Nintendo’s best villains, and like Mother Brain or some of the one or two shot shot Zelda Villains (Vaati, Veran, Onox and Twinrova) he deserves more glazing and respect. That and he’s creepy af.
In a way he's the reason why James McCloud is dead. The scumbag defected to Venom for money. Wolf on the other hand is just doing his job. Although its possible he just happened to be a childhood bully of Fox.
@@DAN007thefoxx1 Wolf has, on multiple occasions, demonstrated that is has some sense of honor. He kicked Pigma out of his team just because of how disgustingly selfish he was, and even helped out in Assault (and some endings of Command).
Very good video, you did a good job at collecting Andross's backstory and information, I've read around about him, but you collected and presented it all together very nicely here and even learned a few things I didn't know before!
A lot of information is incorrect, and would likely cause any new starfox gamers to absorb false information, I've already found multiple cases where he didn't properly do research
Not 100% incorrect, but a lot of details were left out 1. Falco being the leader of how own gang of pilots. 2. Dinosaur planet was still in the Lylat system, it was only near the edge of it. And 3. The Krozoa spirits where only HALF of the reason Dinosaur planet was falling apart, it was also due to the planet's core being unstable since the core stones were removed.
What I like about his character is that hes a genius and knows what he wants and how to do it. He was once a good person but overtime he saw the crazy power in his experiments and it drove him insane as all he saw in his work was destruction that could help corneria but he was doing it on the planet itself and its sad as its stated or hinted that him and General Pepper were best friends at one point even a brotherly like bond. Which is why Andross is obsessed with killing Pepper for hiring Star Fox to kill him for good.
I’m not sure if someone’s brain can count as their true form because wouldn’t it just be the brain of their “true form?” or was the rest of Andross’s head also artificial? Like maybe skin grafted onto a frame surrounding his brain.
He destroyed his entire being, aside from his brain, so when you destroy his face, you are just destroying a shell, causing the only real part of himself to appear.
Except you did have one thing wrong that I had noticed. Pigma Dengar actually wasn't a friend. He was actually a person who had volunteered for the job. And was secretly working under andross. And like you said once they had gotten to venom,he had attacked both peppy and James.
+Apex Ashan, do you think part of this story (about fox dropping out of the academy to form the team) will be turned into non-canon after star fox zero?
+Gray_FoxRJ Since that Comic was based off the original SNES Star Fox and Star Fox 64 was a Reboot/Reimagining of the SNES one it could of been out of canon since. Now I'm making Excuse Plots even more complex...
I'm happy to report that it wasn't rendered non-canon. Zero is more of a remake than a reboot. the overall story is the same, even though everything else is different.
but in star fox 64 james wasnt killed, he was just, doin shit, most likely inside the stomach of andross, wait, andross doesnt have a stomach, WHAT THE F#CK THE JAMES DOING
As a Starfox fan I came up with the theory that might explain why were Andross went mad. And just had to work hard to be the scientist he was, but he was insanely jealous at James McCloud because James had everything, especially a beautiful wife named Vixy that Andross lusted over. So Andross thought up a plan about planting a bomb on James Car. But when the car exploded and Andross went over to see if he killed James, he founded devastating shocked that he killed Vixy instead. It killed the woman he loved dearly so that might be a reason why he went insane. And why Fox has no mother.
Yeah I don't think Andross is dead either. I mean he "died" in Starfox 64 yet in Adventures he is back yet again. He also came back in that Titania Incident comic. If he is somehow revived in Starfox Zero it really wouldn't come off as a surprise. I just think the whole Assault side story with Andrew was just to give you the feeling that even without Andross people still remain loyal to him so you in a way still feel his overall influence even though he is not in the game. Also Ganon has died in Twilight Princess yet in a game in the same timeline Four Swords Adventures which is AFTER Twilight Princess Ganon returns acting behind the scenes as the true enemy of the game manipulating both Dark Link and Vaati.
Andross died in Star Fox 64, but his spirit merged the Krozoa Spirits to make a new body to revive himself. Also, Ganon wasn't resurrected in Four Swords Adventures, he was reincarnated.
Krystal: “I don’t know, Fox. Something tells me that Andross is still out there. And that he could come back at any time, in any form, and kill us in ways we can’t even imagine!” 🚌 **pulls up** Andross: **disembarks** “BOO! Hehe! Raugh! Yee-uh, Grrrgghh! Aaahhh! Blblblblblbl!” 🚌 **pulls away** Andross: “Wait! STOP! I left my gun on the seat!” **to Fox and Krystal** “Wait here, please?” **chases bus and shouts, loses a shoe, notices and laments, but continues to chase the bus**
There are *three **_Star Fox_** comic books* to date -- • An initially Japanese-exclusive 3-part manga comic titled *_Star Fox: Farewell, Beloved Falco_** (c. 1999-2000),* which takes place between the events of both *_Star Fox 64_** [3D] (1997; 2011)* and *_Star Fox: Adventures_** (2002).* • There was also a Japanese exclusive comic manga based from _Star Fox 64,_ albeit with some *minor alterations.* • There was even a *Nintendo Power issue* in 1992, set prior to the original *_Star Fox_** video game on the S.N.E.S. (1993).*
Falco dropped out of the Academy, that does not mean he was a bad pilot. Falco hates structured environments and he would have been forced to work for the Corneryean Army. When Fox left, he followed knowing that Fox would need help during the war. After the Lylat wars he went off on his own as a mercenary until the Aperoid Invasion 8 years later when he reunited with Star Fox to finish off the dredges of Andross's army.
So wait, Andross actually turned himself into a giant brain? Inside some sort of biomechanical head? I always thought the head was some sort of hallucination/holographic projection.
In *_Star Fox 64_** [3D] (1997; 2011),* there are two difficulty routes that span through 7 missions out of 15 to get to Venom. Though they look similar in the map of the Lylat System in-game, the levels themselves are completely different. The *"Normal Mode" Route* has the player fight the *"Golemech,"* and then Andross, but it's only a robotic double of himself. After both the fight and the end credits, you'll hear Andross's laughter and see his head onscreen, meaning that you didn't defeat *the **_real_** Andross.* The *"Hard Mode" Route,* however, has you fight against the *Star Wolf Team* -- a rival mercenary team led by *Wolf O'Donnell* -- before facing off against Andross. This time, however, when his skin cover is destroyed, Andross's *_"true_** form,"* as Fox puts it, is revealed -- a large floating disembodied brain and two floating laser eyes attached to it via strands of electrical energy with squid-like tentacles (likely the *nervous system)* underneath. He even makes a pun about it, saying this now-infamous line: *"Only I have the brains to rule Lylat!"* After killing Andross, escaping from the crumbling base -- like something from the *"Second Death Star" scene* in the Steven Spielberg movie *_Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi_** (1983)* -- with James' supposed "ghost" guiding the way *_and_* the end credits, the screen will simply say *"The End,"* meaning you defeated Andross once and for all. *Or so we thought...*
If Nintendo followed the story line from the Nintendo Power comic, it would've been far more successful, easier to continue the plot for sequels, darker story telling, deeper history, and more interesting characters. I can see Fara would be a more interesting love interest than Krystal for Fox. Krystal was thrown in so fast at the last second that even Krystal forgot why she was involved in any of it after her intro plot.
I wouldnt say it's bad it just sounds like you back away from your mic or u get muffled I can still hear what your saying but half way in the quality drops happens on the 2nd video as well.

@@thegreatestever913 Well, yes, but actually no, their games have a Linear Story, yet it kinda got Rebooted 1 or 2 times kinda, on the SNES we have the first Game, then we got a trilogie of Starfox 64, Starfox Adventures and Starfox Assault, then everything has been put back to 0 somehow with Starfox Zero - no Pun intended
Jr rayes ... finally! Someone actually knows for a fact, that most of what he’s saying is literally just ripped from the star fox wiki, I mean I read through most of the page and guess what? Most of what he said, is literally there in text form, i shit you not!
@@angiemontgomery4712 Yep. I actually mention that in the description. I don't think I got 100% from the wiki but almost all of it did come from there. It was the best place of information that had it all piled up accordingly. I looked at other sources of information and they all pretty much covered the same things.
At first I thought he was and fox just believe he was seeing his father but in star fox zero, Andross says "Curse you James mccloud, why won't you just stay dead"
Some have speculated that he simply *vanished without a trace,* along with his Arwing, during his presumed escape attempt from Andross's clutches. -- Edit(s): • Although... now that I mention it, doesn't it seem familiar to some of you, in which something similar later happened to a certain cheeky, Cockney-speaking, time-manipulating *you-know-who* during a test flight of an *experimental teleporting fighter jet* that went wrong?
@@Mr.M2045☝ *_"IGIARI!_** / OBJECTION!"* ☝ I mean the character *Lena "Tracer" Oxton* (voiced by *Cara Theobold* in English versions) from the Blizzard Entertainment video game series *_Overwatch_** (2016-present)!* In her backstory (from my knwoledge), she was an ace pilot -- and the youngest, at that, as she was *18* at the time (now *27* as of *_Overwatch 2_* since October 4th, 2022) -- who was hand picked to be the test candidate for the experimental teleporting fighter jet named the *_Slipstream_* one day in early 2068. Unfortunately, during her maiden test flight, the aircraft's onboard *teleportation matrix somehow malfunctioned,* catapulting both the _Slipstream_ and Tracer -- who was still trapped inside, unable to eject -- into some sort of *time warp,* resulting in her being declared *M.I.A. ("Missing in Action")* and later *"Presumed Dead"* by now-former Overwatch Strike Cmdr. *Jack "Soldier: 76" Morrison.* A few months later, however, Tracer was found alive, but had a tragically *different look.* When her accident with the _Slipstream_ happened, it severely *desyncronized her molecular structure from the constant flow of time,* causing her to *disappear for hours, days, if not weeks at a time* before randomly *reappearing like a ghost,* rendering her unable to maintain her physical form. The doctors who saved her -- including *Angela "Mercy" Ziegler* (voiced by *Lucie Pohl)* -- couldn't figure out how to treat this newfound disease, one they had now dubbed *"Chronal Dissociation Disorder."* It seemed that Lena would eventually die from this disease within a matter of hours, if not days, or just simply be lost in time. That was, until *Winston* -- a genetically enhanced gorilla who currently serves as a part-time scientist and field agent, as well as a good friend -- came up with a way to at least stabilize Tracer's condition. Over the course of a few days, Winston developed a device now called the *Chronal Accelerator,* which not only helped anchor Tracer to the present time flow, but also give her control of her own time. She was even given new abilities related to time (although I'm sure it took some getting used to at first). With these abilities, she could speed up time or slow it down at will, giving her an edge in speed, maneuverability and agility, *even in combat.* Some time later, she became a field operative for Overwatch, as well as the Tracer we know today. After that... *we know the rest.*
Never understood the story of this guy what I can tell he did some bad stuff people tought he was crazy so the government decides to banish him to the poor side of the galaxy colonies and he ended up helping them and they like him and decided to rebel and so on.
+Astrodude55 Thanks, and mannn I didn't notice how much I read from that .-. , the website basically told everything that happened in order, so it was hard to try to reword things but I did try my best. I wrote out a script on word and read from that, but I guess I never noticed how much stayed the same. The story was already in a perfect format so I couldn't change much.
Ya'Know so did I, and I got that from my Cousin playing the game. I have it on my 3DS but never knew how to get to that point, I beat the game but never battled Andross's brain.
+Carlos Ruiz (InfamousCLR) Yea I kind of did that by accident. I used a bunch of sources but arwingpedia was the main one. I guess I didn't "Summarize" as much as I thought I did. I was reviewing what I said and realized most of it was just said the way it's written, I was kind of bummed out to be honest because I put a lot of effort compiling everything I needed to say, I have no idea how it ended up like that. I guess I didn't pay enough attention? It's not too big of a deal though because I originally intended "Badass Backstories" to be a show that's literally read of the Wiki of a character, however I decided to not do that anymore after making the first episode with Master Hand. I know most of everything (Except the ending of Part 2 I guess) was read off the website, but I couldn't really think of a better way of explaining the events of Andross' backstory. Everything happened chronologically and all the details were already said, there really wasn't much to alter to begin with. I did my cite my sources however with the link in the description so there's that. :P ...Man I wrote a lot...
@@darkstarmoonshadowAnd what do *_you_* think you'd do, pull a *Fox Mulder* (played by *David Duchovny)* from *_The X-Files_** (1993-2002; 2016-2018),* or something with those beliefs?
+Christopher Langheinrich By jackin it to hardcore furry pornography, I assume. lols I dunno. Sometimes people gain a lust for power / money / etc. from being built up by other people's compliments. Remember that Andross was once well-respected. You might even say he was beloved. That much admiration directed at one person can make them feel like they're more important than everyone else.
Does anyone else find Andross disturbing as hell?
no
You are not alone. He is quite disturbing and don't look at the n64 version at 12:00am.
i truly was afraid of him as a child :> When my dad was playing SF64 and he had to beat Andross i used to hide in another room xD

It would also be neat to find out the true origin of the Aparoids.
Nobody knows except the creators of Assault the origin of Aparoids
So wait, Andross actually turned himself into a giant brain? Inside some sort of biomechanical head? I always thought the head was some sort of hallucination/holographic projection.
No he conducted deadly experiments on himself so he turned into a giant floating monkey head on crack with big mechanical hands
In *_Star Fox 64_** [3D] (1997; 2011),* there are two difficulty routes that span through 7 missions out of 15 to get to Venom. Though they look similar in the map of the Lylat System in-game, the levels themselves are completely different.
The *"Normal Mode" Route* has the player fight the *"Golemech,"* and then Andross, but it's only a robotic double of himself. After both the fight and the end credits, you'll hear Andross's laughter and see his head onscreen, meaning that you didn't defeat *the **_real_** Andross.*
The *"Hard Mode" Route,* however, has you fight against the *Star Wolf Team* -- a rival mercenary team led by *Wolf O'Donnell* -- before facing off against Andross. This time, however, when his skin cover is destroyed, Andross's *_"true_** form,"* as Fox puts it, is revealed -- a large floating disembodied brain and two floating laser eyes attached to it via strands of electrical energy with squid-like tentacles (likely the *nervous system)* underneath. He even makes a pun about it, saying this now-infamous line: *"Only I have the brains to rule Lylat!"*
After killing Andross, escaping from the crumbling base -- like something from the *"Second Death Star" scene* in the Steven Spielberg movie *_Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi_** (1983)* -- with James' supposed "ghost" guiding the way *_and_* the end credits, the screen will simply say *"The End,"* meaning you defeated Andross once and for all.
*Or so we thought...*
The star fox timeline is normal, but complicated for people who don't know.
Star fox zero and star fox 64 timeline is both reboot timelines
Lore of The Andross Backstory (1/2) momentum 100
that moment when its hard not to read from the starfox 64 narrator script xD
If Nintendo followed the story line from the Nintendo Power comic, it would've been far more successful, easier to continue the plot for sequels, darker story telling, deeper history, and more interesting characters. I can see Fara would be a more interesting love interest than Krystal for Fox. Krystal was thrown in so fast at the last second that even Krystal forgot why she was involved in any of it after her intro plot.

Andross for smash bros ultimate
Why is he a floating head
what's with the audio quality?
+CL Chaos Is it bad? There was a lot of background noises I had to edit out, and this was my second attempt at recording already.
I wouldnt say it's bad it just sounds like you back away from your mic or u get muffled I can still hear what your saying but half way in the quality drops happens on the 2nd video as well.
I'm recording with my iPhone, and if anyone comes into my room, I would have to stop recording... :P This may sometimes lead me to forgetting exactly where I held my hand when recording, which I think may be the cause.
ah ya that could explain it :)
yay oso bakstory of the grox from game spore
HAHA taken 1 to 1 from the starfox wiki xD not even written new.
EPIC!
Star Fox and the Legend of Zelda share one thing in Common:
Their Games are not in the right order😅
? Star Fox is
@@thegreatestever913
Well, yes, but actually no, their games have a Linear Story, yet it kinda got Rebooted 1 or 2 times kinda, on the SNES we have the first Game, then we got a trilogie of Starfox 64, Starfox Adventures and Starfox Assault, then everything has been put back to 0 somehow with Starfox Zero - no Pun intended
@@Chris-gx1ei the main storyline is 64 through command. I view SNES and Zero as just different storytellings
you know what forget it you dont het the refremce

I was just wondering, how do you make your intro like that.
I already had the intro, but I tweaked it with music and footage from things I like which was done on after effects.
no the speech
+David Sobampo The thing's I say in the video?
You got all of the information about andross from Wikipedia.
Jr rayes ... finally! Someone actually knows for a fact, that most of what he’s saying is literally just ripped from the star fox wiki, I mean I read through most of the page and guess what? Most of what he said, is literally there in text form, i shit you not!
@@angiemontgomery4712 Yep. I actually mention that in the description. I don't think I got 100% from the wiki but almost all of it did come from there. It was the best place of information that had it all piled up accordingly. I looked at other sources of information and they all pretty much covered the same things.
Hmm yes lore
hmmmm this speech sounds familiar
+David Sobampo my voice?
Is James really dead
Nobody knows
At first I thought he was and fox just believe he was seeing his father but in star fox zero, Andross says "Curse you James mccloud, why won't you just stay dead"
Some have speculated that he simply *vanished without a trace,* along with his Arwing, during his presumed escape attempt from Andross's clutches.
-- Edit(s):
• Although... now that I mention it, doesn't it seem familiar to some of you, in which something similar later happened
to a certain cheeky, Cockney-speaking, time-manipulating *you-know-who* during a test flight of an
*experimental teleporting fighter jet* that went wrong?
@@josecarrilloii4036 No...
No I don't know who
@@Mr.M2045☝ *_"IGIARI!_** / OBJECTION!"* ☝
I mean the character *Lena "Tracer" Oxton* (voiced by *Cara Theobold* in English versions) from the Blizzard Entertainment video game series *_Overwatch_** (2016-present)!*
In her backstory (from my knwoledge), she was an ace pilot -- and the youngest, at that, as she was *18* at the time (now *27* as of *_Overwatch 2_* since October 4th, 2022) -- who was hand picked to be the test candidate for the experimental teleporting fighter jet named the *_Slipstream_* one day in early 2068.
Unfortunately, during her maiden test flight, the aircraft's onboard *teleportation matrix somehow malfunctioned,* catapulting both the _Slipstream_ and Tracer -- who was still trapped inside, unable to eject -- into some sort of *time warp,* resulting in her being declared *M.I.A. ("Missing in Action")* and later *"Presumed Dead"* by now-former Overwatch Strike Cmdr. *Jack "Soldier: 76" Morrison.*
A few months later, however, Tracer was found alive, but had a tragically *different look.* When her accident with the _Slipstream_ happened, it severely *desyncronized her molecular structure from the constant flow of time,* causing her to *disappear for hours, days, if not weeks at a time* before randomly *reappearing like a ghost,* rendering her unable to maintain her physical form.
The doctors who saved her -- including *Angela "Mercy" Ziegler* (voiced by *Lucie Pohl)* -- couldn't figure out how to treat this newfound disease, one they had now dubbed *"Chronal Dissociation Disorder."* It seemed that Lena would eventually die from this disease within a matter of hours, if not days, or just simply be lost in time.
That was, until *Winston* -- a genetically enhanced gorilla who currently serves as a part-time scientist and field agent, as well as a good friend -- came up with a way to at least stabilize Tracer's condition. Over the course of a few days, Winston developed a device now called the *Chronal Accelerator,* which not only helped anchor Tracer to the present time flow, but also give her control of her own time.
She was even given new abilities related to time (although I'm sure it took some getting used to at first). With these abilities, she could speed up time or slow it down at will, giving her an edge in speed, maneuverability and agility, *even in combat.* Some time later, she became a field operative for Overwatch, as well as the Tracer we know today.
After that... *we know the rest.*
Never understood the story of this guy what I can tell he did some bad stuff people tought he was crazy so the government decides to banish him to the poor side of the galaxy colonies and he ended up helping them and they like him and decided to rebel and so on.
who ever is playing really needs some help
The gameplay is so Noob that It's Very hard to watch
I was slightly offended until I remembered I wasn't playing lol
I think we can ignore the dinosaur planet saga. Although the development has a really interesting story, it's a horrible game.
It’s ironically my favorite Star Fox Game
Bruh. This is a good video, but why are you reading directly from Arwingpedia?
+Astrodude55 Thanks, and mannn I didn't notice how much I read from that .-. , the website basically told everything that happened in order, so it was hard to try to reword things but I did try my best. I wrote out a script on word and read from that, but I guess I never noticed how much stayed the same. The story was already in a perfect format so I couldn't change much.
Star Fox 64 was awesome
Excape
I just keep getting roasted 😅

Slippy is the Meg of the Star Fox world
ikr he always needs help
And by *"Meg"* (not to be confused with the long-thought-to-be-extinct *_Carcharodon megalodon,_* or simply the *Megalodon shark),* what do you mean?
Good intro music. Too bad the game sucked.
@@XLentGamingNetwork lmao guess you are .
@@XLentGamingNetwork you said " good intro . But the game sucked" then Electkooops asked you which game lmao nd you called him retarded lmao
The Truth he was talking about Star Fox games, dipshit. The intro music is from Sonic 06 you insolent fuck. That’s the game that sucked.
@@XLentGamingNetwork *_HEY!_* Watch your vulgar lips!
Jose Carrillo II no.
Wait, Fox was guided out of Venom by James' SPIRIT? What the fuck!?!?!?!? I thought his father survived or something.
No haha, in star fox 64 you can clearly see his ship vanishes in mid air
Ya'Know so did I, and I got that from my Cousin playing the game. I have it on my 3DS but never knew how to get to that point, I beat the game but never battled Andross's brain.
It's likely *his supposed "ghost..."*
ohhhhhhhhhhhhh I love starfox adventures storyline coz it's best game ever
starfox adventures ending tho 😍😍😍
im actually a cat HELL YEAH I AM That game killed the StarFox franchise.
Venemese sounds better than venomian
*MONKE*
The gameplay made the first few minutes of this unwatchable
just reading off arwingpedia
+Carlos Ruiz (InfamousCLR) Yea I kind of did that by accident. I used a bunch of sources but arwingpedia was the main one. I guess I didn't "Summarize" as much as I thought I did. I was reviewing what I said and realized most of it was just said the way it's written, I was kind of bummed out to be honest because I put a lot of effort compiling everything I needed to say, I have no idea how it ended up like that. I guess I didn't pay enough attention? It's not too big of a deal though because I originally intended "Badass Backstories" to be a show that's literally read of the Wiki of a character, however I decided to not do that anymore after making the first episode with Master Hand. I know most of everything (Except the ending of Part 2 I guess) was read off the website, but I couldn't really think of a better way of explaining the events of Andross' backstory. Everything happened chronologically and all the details were already said, there really wasn't much to alter to begin with. I did my cite my sources however with the link in the description so there's that. :P ...Man I wrote a lot...
ANYTHING PEDIA IS PURE BULLSHIT!!! BULBAPEDIA, WIKIPEDIA, BULLSHIT. it's all lies and made up crap.
@@darkstarmoonshadowAnd what do *_you_* think you'd do, pull a *Fox Mulder* (played by *David Duchovny)* from *_The X-Files_** (1993-2002; 2016-2018),* or something with those beliefs?
wow just this link?
Andrew Smith What do you mean?
people can only see this when they click from the last vids link to get to it because is is locked from all other ways to view it...
I did that because part 2 isn't out yet. I only finished half of this back story, although the entire episode will be out in a couple of hours.
ok
I hate Andross. So glad Fox k!lled him. (Like 3 or 4 times) (why the hell is Andross like William Afton from Fnaf?)

Dude, the video came out in 2014. _Star Fox Zero_ came out in 2016. :\

wait he got a lust for power?!
why did he gain that lust???
+Christopher Langheinrich By jackin it to hardcore furry pornography, I assume.
lols I dunno. Sometimes people gain a lust for power / money / etc. from being built up by other people's compliments. Remember that Andross was once well-respected. You might even say he was beloved. That much admiration directed at one person can make them feel like they're more important than everyone else.

You said "ecscape" even though its escape.
XlentGamingNetwork 02 :(
It did. I've played it. Too glitchy. Even the new character (Silver) sucked, at least his attacks anyways.
Wait what are you talking about?
Oh, when u were talking about the back-story, on the adventures part u pronounced it "ecscape" even though its pronounced "escape"
:(
what about star wolf it looks like Andros's he must have gave them a new look
Sounds like the story of Fauci
Do samases backstory
I'll take that into consideration, thanks for watching :)
Escaping is pronounced "eh-skay-ping" not "ek-skay-ping".

Yes it is. I was in highschool still
