| Currently, the true path of the storyline is unknown. In one interview, Dylan Cuthbert and Takaya Imamura stated that the next game could very well start in the middle of ''Command''<ref>http://ds.ign.com/articles/731/731088p2.html</ref>. An issue of ''[[wikipedia:Nintendo Power|Nintendo Power]]'' has also stated that the canon ending is the standard ending, The Anglar Emperor<ref>http://www.aeropause.com/2010/10/read-a-long-with-nintendo-power-261-december-2010/</ref>. It has been said in an interview that the [[Star Fox (series)|Star Fox series]] may be over, but if a sequel is made, it will determine which ending is canon, or whether the game (or even its prologue) is canon at all.{{CitationNeeded}}
| | {{Main|List of Star Fox Command endings}} |
| | ''Star Fox Command'' is notable for having nine different endings based on which path the player takes. According to designer [[Dylan Cuthbert]], none of the endings are canon because the game is set in an alternate timeline.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/nintendo/comments/8mu1pp/im_dylan_cuthbert_and_i_worked_on_four_versions/dzqkhn8/ Dylan Cuthbert AMA - Reddit]</ref> However, on the contrary, the 261st issue of ''[[wikipedia:Nintendo Power|Nintendo Power]]'' has stated the standard ending, the Anglar Emperor, is the standard one. |
