[[File: | [[File:Andross SF64 artwork.jpg|thumb|Appearance in ''Star Fox 64'']] | ||
In ''[[Star Fox (game)|Star Fox]]'' and ''[[Star Fox 64]]'', Andross began his invasion of the [[Lylat System]]. He was challenged by the new Star Fox team, led by the son of James McCloud, Fox. Andross had been experimenting with many things including an array of bioweapons for the war. He had also created several robotic defense weapons and hired the [[Star Wolf]] team to hold off Star Fox. All failed and Fox McCloud himself alone invaded Andross's lair to battle him. When Fox finally encountered Andross, he found that the experiments Andross had conducted had transformed him into a giant, floating head and pair of hands. Fox destroyed this form and Andross was revealed to only be a giant brain and set of eyes. Fox defeated this form of Andross as well, setting off a massive explosion that took out his entire lair. If Star Fox had gotten to Venom from [[Bolse Defense Satellite]], Fox would have encountered a false, cybernetic Andross and Andross's face would appear after Star Fox collected their reward from Pepper, signifying his survival. | In ''[[Star Fox (game)|Star Fox]]'' and ''[[Star Fox 64]]'', Andross began his invasion of the [[Lylat System]].

Andross remains dead during the events of ''[[Star Fox: Assault]]'', but his legacy continues. His nephew, [[Andrew Oikonny]], leads the remnants of Andross' army on [[Fortuna]] and remains true to Andross' strange penchant for appearing as a massive floating head by building an airborne vehicle which mimicked Andrew's head and hands. This ship appeared as the first level's false boss in the game. Fox quickly dispatched the reproduction. The badly damaged craft, presumably piloted by Andrew himself, attempted to escape but was utterly obliterated by an [[Aparoid]] while Andrew delivered a megalomaniac monologue. | |||
=== ''Star Fox Command'' === | |||
In ''[[Star Fox Command]]'', Andross was one of, if not the only, character to have the same role during the invasion of the [[Anglar]] regardless of the story. When Fox and whatever teammates he had at the time went to Titania, they encountered an entity that claimed to be the ghost of Andross. This was probably a hologram Andross left with his bioweapons to guard his acid neutralization device based on Andross's dialogue sprite. Unable to do anything when Fox and his allies defeated the bioweapon, Andross allowed him to take the device. | |||

He had a second trophy in ''Super Smash Bros Melee'' based on his appearance in ''Star Fox 64''. He also appeared in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' as an Assist Trophy. Andross in his original form would move to the background and blow hexagon shapes at the fighters. | Andross appeared in both ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros.
