'''ROB 64''' | '''ROB 64''' (or '''ROB64'''<ref>''Star Fox 64'' instruction booklet, page 6.</ref>), also known as '''ROB The Robot'''<ref>''Star Fox Adventures'' instruction booklet, pages 5 and 11.</ref> and as '''ROB''' for short, is the robotic operator of the [[Star Fox (team)|Star Fox]] team's mothership, the [[Great Fox]]. He first appears in ''[[Star Fox 64]]''. | ||

ROB's name is a reference to the NES accessory, [[nwiki:R.O.B.|R.O.B.]] (Robotic Operating Buddy), which is another type of robot. The "64" is derived from the [[Nintendo 64]], which is the console of his first appearance, the [[Nintendo 64]]. His Japanese name, NUS64, has a slightly different derivation from the Nintendo 64; it is a reference to the console's serial number, including its peripherals. It is also the abbreviation of "Nintendo Ultra 64", which was a working title for the Nintendo 64. In ''[[Star Fox Adventures]]'', the letters "NUS" are located at the top of his chest. | ROB's name is a reference to the NES accessory, [[nwiki:R.O.B.|R.O.B.]] (Robotic Operating Buddy), which is another type of robot.

In | In ''Star Fox 64'', ROB 64's role was operating and maintaining the [[Great Fox]]. When needed, ROB sent supply boxes that contained [[ring]]s or [[Smart Bomb]]s from the mothership. ROB also repaired the shield-depleted [[Arwing]]s of Fox's teammates, and would be done with fixing them by the time Fox had finished the next level. ROB only serves to relay information to the pilots, such as "''Location confirmed. Sending supplies.''" or "''Great Fox will cover you.''" In this game, ROB is the most analytical. | ||
In its [[Nintendo 3DS]] remake, ''[[Star Fox 64 3D]]'', ROB 64 provides the occasional advice for the player to take a 10-15 minute break. | |||

In ''[[Star Fox Adventures]]'', ROB has minor appearances in the opening and ending cutscenes with the [[Great Fox]], along with the core Star Fox team. Around the time Fox landed on [[Dinosaur Planet]], ROB tried to send [[Fuel Cell]]s down to him, but they were scattered across the planet by accident. | |||
In the opening cutscene, ROB is repaired by [[Slippy Toad]], and in the end cutscene, ROB jokes about Fox's attraction to [[Krystal]]. ''Star Fox Adventures'' is the first game where ROB's whole body is shown. | |||

On some paths in the game, ROB joins [[Star Wolf]] team when no "hero" character is playable. In this game, he, like in Adventures, becomes more humanoid, even uttering sarcastic remarks. For instance, if the Great Fox is destroyed, ROB says, "''Goodbye cruel world.''" He even has veiled feelings for [[Lucy Hare]], when he remarks to her that he'd do anything for her. | ||
