False. Eventhough Fox has the bigger hitbox...it's only slight, I mean, you still have to get close into the opponent regardless. Falco has a better time appoarching and setting up for a shine (his amazing Dair, lasers, blah blah). BUT, Fox's shine does> Falco's shine. I'm just saying it's not simply because of the hitbox. It's because Falco's shine combos are easier to avoid and at times can be less effective than Fox's. Also.... shinespiking

Those reasons listed do give fox a better shine true... but even though I've never actually seen the hitbox in AR or anything I swear fox's seems a ton bigger to me but maybe I'm just too used to playing with falco.

eh, this guide is too bland. That's probably why. Also, I'm to lazy to make big updates, especially since I don't know what else to put. Then again, it solves nooby shine questions.

I think that we've all learned that no amount of guides/informative posts ever solve nooby shine questions, they always pop up and then they get yelled at to go read the guides.
