I liked this update alot, especially because we got Metaknights special moves as well :bigthumbu I'm really glad that Andross made it in some form.

EDIT: Although I think most people expected him as an AT.

Ok, then, where do you see the "four special move types" topic??
Who gives a crap? I know where I don't see it, and that's in this topic that I'm posting in now.

I think people failed to read what sakurai said there. The versatility of the new special moves is one of the biggest steps up since the Forward Special was introduced. I hope for the type of diversity seen in Samus's Super Missiles, and not just minor timing changes.
See how the title says

NEW ASSIST TROPHY: ANDROSS

That means that this topic is about discussing Andross, not whatever the fug you want because you're too lazy to find/make a topic.

I didn't make a topic because I figured someone else would. Or I figured it's not a big freaking deal to put the two together, considering they came at the same time. YES I know the Petey Piranha/ Go K.K. Rider! had two separate topics. I don't care. It's late. I'll look if anyone posted a new one by morning.

It took two seconds to find that.

So I'm on topic: Andross is cool.

At first, when I saw this update (I didn't look at the pictures yet) and saw Andross as the update my first thought was "A boss?" Then I looked at the icon "A character?!" but then I scrolled down and realized it was an Assist Trophy...ah...he looks cool though! I hope we get the SF64 Andross in Adventure mode or maybe Wolf. Oh yeah and this is Day Two of me getting another update right, yay! Item, Assist Trophy, How To Play, and Special Moves. I'm Godly.

Sakurai sure played smart when he included one of the most memorable bosses ever. The ATs are sure going to be my favorite item.

Has anyone fought the classic Andross using the Hard route? Very tough when he gets the devil face. He shoots nova bombs out of his eyes constantly.

Retro Andross will kick total a s s! Who knows,Sakurai kind of left a hint saying that normal Andross might show up in subspace emissary.

Adross loks cool and im glad they decided to go with the classic one.
what I have noticed about assist trophies though is that with the ones that attack such as dr wright and andross for some reason in the screen shots it only shows 3 characters. where's the 4th? I doubt by coinsidence that the 4th character fell to their doom both times. I dunno maybe you can conrol certain assist trophies the ones who attack I think.

The variety and quality of ATs so far is most excellent. I wonder how many there will be by the end...

Hmm...if the monkified Andross is a boss, imagine using the AT Andross against it.

Mysteries of time go even deeper....

They might not have AT's on Subspace Emissary at least in boss battles... because if they do announce Andross64 as a boss... come on! That throws the laws of psychics off SO much! lol.

yeah i think there will be an andross boss in the subspace emmisary, cause if he wasn't going to be one, wouldn't you think he would be the AT, and not this version?

anyway, it's an ok update. if it wasn't for the four special moves update with Metaknight's moves, i wouldn't like this day as much, but it's a cool idea for an AT

That would have been great, also... but I'd like him as a boss moreover... I mean, Star Fox needs an ultimate boss on Subspace Emissary... why not Andross64?

I'm sure you don't want Oinkinny. lol.

Look how big he is. Yoshi is standing on an upper platform and he's only even with Andross's mouth.

Most likely no, but why would you have to be Yoshi?

Remember, just because Andross is an assist trophy, doesn't mean he can't be a boss. There's no reason to assume that.

You put that twice by accident, Burrito? lol.

Well, you know for sure Star Fox has a (big?) role in Subspace. I mean, we've already seen the Arwing being chased by the Halberd. So, hopefully this is evident to having a Star Fox boss.

This update provides further evidence to the "You control/are the AT" Theory - would it be that bad a feature?
You morph into Andross, and keep tapping A to produce more Panels?
Tap A to throw more Hammers as a Hammer Bro?
Knuckle Joe final hit - A = Rising Break, B = Smash?
Nintendog - A = Left Paw Up, B = Right Paw Up?
I'm all for it.
