The Starfox bunch got a lot of flak in Brawl for all having the same movesets. On one hand they do at least have very different play styles and regular attacks and on the same hand it must be difficult to come up with interesting specials when most of the time these characters are hidden away in their vehicles (I'm still convinced Fox's specials are based on the Arwing's abilities) but the series had deviated a lot lately and these guys have been seen on foot a few times with different weapons so maybe they could have done more with them - or maybe they wanted to stay truer to their original incarnations.

In that vein I gave Wolf his eye patch, simply because I prefer it, but kept his "space biker" look, because I like that too. Interestingly Starfox is one of the few Nintendo franchises that actually advances in story; Unfortunately I think they kind of lost their way by Command (even though playwise it was an awesome game) so now that Lylat Wars has been re-released I wonder if they're tempted to go back and retcon the entire series. If so it might make Krystal obsolete! But more on that next.

They could at least have given them different Final Smashes ie: Fox has Landmaster. Falco could hop in an Arwing and manually shoot at the stage, similar to Snake. Wolf could call in an air strike from Star Wolf, similar to the stage attack on the Corneria Stage. Pretty simple, right?

Cool style!! I see a lot of Mario & Zelda fanart in all kinds of styles, but not enough Starfox! (; v ; )
Even if they have the same moves, I was still very very happy that they included Wolf!!! & I love his outfit, & his claws. & your idea of Final Smashes really would've made the difference <8D

Also, every SF fan I talk to would rather have Command as non-existant within the timeline, including me. Hopefully, Nintendo thinks the same, if they do plan to continue.

Well thanks, I'm glad to see the Starfox fans are out there!

As I said, I thought Command was a really good game to play, and I actually liked the idea of multiple endings, even without a "true" ending, but the lengths they're going to to push the story almost seems like they're building up to some sort of finale, and we don't want the series to end, do we? Either that or they've just completely lost the plot.

Agreed with what you said about the alternative Final Smashes. :)

I wish I still had that image of Toon Link's final smash being depicted as a green landmaster.
