In days gone by, the burning desire of Dr. Andross to rule the Lylat system filled the galaxy with the chaos of war. The mad ape sent out wave after wave of armies from his stronghold on the planet Venom, and used unique forms of radiation to create horrible monsters and terrible soldiers. His ambition swept this army across the galaxy to the planet Corneria. It was there, however, that a quartet of mercenaries known as Star Fox put an end to the threat, and the leader of the team, Fox McCloud, defeated Andross in single combat. In the years that followed, Venom was designated a forbidden planet and placed under the rigorous watch of Cornerian forces. All was going well until a mysterious army suddenly sprung forth from the toxic seas of the planet. Controlled by a mysterious leader called the Anglar Emperor, this new threat cuts through the Lylat system like a scythe through ripe wheat. The unexpected attack once again places the peoples, cities, and culture of the Lylat system in dire peril. But much to the shock and dismay of the Lylat people, the members of Star Fox have gone their separate waysleaving Fox McCloud as the lone obstacle in the Anglar armys path. Despite the odds, Fox heroically launches himself into the fray. But can he survive without the aid of his former teammates?

Star Fox Command Hints V (DS)
The famous franchise reaches the DS
Nintendo is one of the biggest video game companies in the world, owning a lot of extremely profitable and popular franchises, from the likes of Mario, The Legend of Zelda, or Metroid. But another highly successful, yet not that well-known, is Star Fox. Introduced during the 2006 edition of the Electronic Entertainment Expo, the game reached Nintendo's native Japan on August 3, North America on August 28, and Europe on January 26, 2007. It was developed by Q-Games and published by Nintendo in all of the aforementioned territories. "Star Fox Command isn't intended as a redesign of the series; it is the merged outcome of combining the Star Fox franchise with the Nintendo DS and its special features," its creators said. "There was no intention to take it to the strategic level of Advance Wars, as Star Fox has always been very much a pick-up-and-play kind of game. We just wanted people to have some light fun with the touch screen, drawing their routes, capturing bases and the like, but not too hard core." Here are some of the general features and functions that the game boasts: - Using the touch screen, players can draw the routes they and their teammates will take, then battle the enemies they encounter as they take over bases and strategically advance across the map. - Players can blow their friends out of the sky as they dogfight with up to eight people over a local wireless connection or take on up to four players from around the world on Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Multiplayer functions: - Offline Versus Multiplayer (six players); - Online Versus Multiplayer (four players); - Online Multiplayer; - Multi-cartridge Multiplayer; - Single-Cartridge Multiplayer. Support functions: - Stereo Surround; - Cartridge Save; - Vibration. Overall, it was praised for being a return to the roots of the franchise, of air battles, and received generally positive reviews regarding its gameplay and the use of the DS' features. HINTS Extra missile for the Great Fox When you go to an enemy base or fleet, destroy every enemy on the radar before you collect the last enemy core. When you finish the stage and go back to the map, you will get one missile for the Great Fox.
