'''ROB 64''' is the robotic pilot of the [[Great Fox]], the [[Star Fox Team]]'s base of operations.


== Appearance ==
{{quote|Message from [[General Pepper]]! Priority one!|'''R.O.B. 64'''}}
ROB appears to be golden, with a round head, that has a small plate with vents on it on his head that moves up and down when he speaks, and a glowing red visor. His torso is out-thrust, and has the Star Fox Team logo on it. He is bipedal, and has two arms, with wrists that can elongate. He also briefly had the letters "NUS" on his chest in ''[[Star Fox Adventures]]'', which is the code for all [[Nintendo 64]] accessories.
 
 
'''R.O.B. 64''', known as '''NUS64''' (ナウス 64 Nausu Rokujūyon) in Japan, is the robotic operator of [[Star Fox Team]]'s mothership, the [[Great Fox]].
 
[[Image:R.o.b_64.jpg|thumb|left|R.O.B. 64 in ''[[Star Fox 64]]''.]]
 
R.O.B.'s name is a reference to the NES accessory R.O.B.(Robotic Operating Buddy), to which he bears a more than passing resemblance. The "64" is derived from the console of his first appearance, the [[Nintendo 64]].
 
R.O.B.'s Japanese name, "NUS", stands for "Nintendo Ultra Sixty-four," the original name of the Nintendo 64 system, and is part of the serial number of all N64 components: the controller, for example, is NUS-005. Like with his English name, the 64 is derived from the console of his first appearance, the Nintendo 64.
 
R.O.B. has the ability to completely control the Great Fox, technically making the ship fully autonomous. It is also networked to the ship's main computers, allowing ROB to process any information requested by the Star Fox Team. R.O.B. can also use the ship's transfer device to send vehicles and items to Star Fox team members in the field.


== Game appearances ==
R.O.B. appeared again in ''[[Star Fox Adventures]]''. He helped with processing saved data.

===''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' Trophy Information===
R.O.B. was nearly destroyed in ''[[Star Fox: Assault]]'' when [[Peppy Hare]] crashed the Great Fox into the shield protecting the entrance to the [[Aparoid Queen]]'s lair, but Peppy and ROB managed to use an escape pod before the ship was destroyed.

R.O.B. returns in ''[[Star Fox Command]]'', piloting the new version of the Great Fox in the map mode, and also giving some advice to [[Fox McCloud|Fox]] and the other characters during the missions. On some paths in the game, R.O.B. joins [[Star Wolf Team]] when no "hero" character is around to play as.

Interestingly enough, R.O.B. seems to have changing personalities. This may be due to his rebuilds by [[Slippy Toad]]. In ''[[Star Fox 64]]'', R.O.B. only serves to relay information to the pilots, such as "''Location confirmed. Sending supplies.''" or "''Great Fox will cover you.''" He only speaks when absolutely necessary, and is very analytical.
 
In ''[[Star Fox Adventures]]'', R.O.B. takes on a more human attitude, as he speaks more as if he were an actual person, and not just a robot. One example is at the end of the game when he asks Fox if he's OK, as he detected a high-temperature frequency within him. Fox tells him that he's fine.
 
In ''[[Star Fox: Assault]]'', he returns to his analytical personality by rarely speaking unless commands are to be given.
 
Finally, in his latest appearance, ''[[Star Fox Command]]'', he again becomes more humanoid, even uttering sarcastic remarks. For instance, if the Great Fox is destroyed, R.O.B. says, "''Goodbye cruel world.''" He even has veiled feelings for [[Lucy Hare]], when he remarks to her that he'd do anything for her.
 
It is unknown if R.O.B. has a [[Star Wolf Team|Star Wolf]] counterpart or if he will return in the next game.

R.O.B. 64


R.O.B. 64, known as NUS64 (ナウス 64 Nausu Rokujūyon) in Japan, is the robotic operator of Star Fox Team's mothership, the Great Fox.

R.O.B.'s name is a reference to the NES accessory R.O.B.(Robotic Operating Buddy), to which he bears a more than passing resemblance. The "64" is derived from the console of his first appearance, the Nintendo 64.

R.O.B.'s Japanese name, "NUS", stands for "Nintendo Ultra Sixty-four," the original name of the Nintendo 64 system, and is part of the serial number of all N64 components: the controller, for example, is NUS-005. Like with his English name, the 64 is derived from the console of his first appearance, the Nintendo 64.

R.O.B. has the ability to completely control the Great Fox, technically making the ship fully autonomous. It is also networked to the ship's main computers, allowing ROB to process any information requested by the Star Fox Team. R.O.B. can also use the ship's transfer device to send vehicles and items to Star Fox team members in the field.

R.O.B. appeared again in Star Fox Adventures. He helped with processing saved data.

R.O.B. was nearly destroyed in Star Fox: Assault when Peppy Hare crashed the Great Fox into the shield protecting the entrance to the Aparoid Queen's lair, but Peppy and ROB managed to use an escape pod before the ship was destroyed.

R.O.B. returns in Star Fox Command, piloting the new version of the Great Fox in the map mode, and also giving some advice to Fox and the other characters during the missions. On some paths in the game, R.O.B. joins Star Wolf Team when no "hero" character is around to play as.

Interestingly enough, R.O.B. seems to have changing personalities. This may be due to his rebuilds by Slippy Toad. In Star Fox 64, R.O.B. only serves to relay information to the pilots, such as "Location confirmed. Sending supplies." or "Great Fox will cover you." He only speaks when absolutely necessary, and is very analytical.

In Star Fox Adventures, R.O.B. takes on a more human attitude, as he speaks more as if he were an actual person, and not just a robot. One example is at the end of the game when he asks Fox if he's OK, as he detected a high-temperature frequency within him. Fox tells him that he's fine.

It is unknown if R.O.B. has a Star Wolf counterpart or if he will return in the next game.
