  • Sit back and face the truth of it: Slippy Toad is the most important Star Fox member, whether you love or hate him. The mechanical genius is the inventor of literally every vehicle and weapon used by the team, for one, but this video goes on to explain more specific instances where Slippy has proven himself. Can't help but love the little guy.

    Not to mention that Slippy is the one who analyzes the bosses HP in 64/64 3D and Assault. If he is put out of commission in a level, you don't know how much HP the boss has.

    Instead of switching pilots on each mission, I think it would be cool if you could choose between each character and each of them will take different pathways on each Mission. Maybe even go to different planets at a time.

      Starlink crimson moon dlc kinda did it by making the rest of the star fox crew playable and they have a unique mission and in the final mission the ai for slippy is actually great and he doesn't need help 95% of the time and the funny thing is a different character called Mason got into trouble way more and had to return for repairs instead of slippy

    Funny enough, Adventures and Assault is where I saw Slippy shine the most. He was the guide in adventures, giving you advice. In assault, his analysis of shields and strategy was at his finest. I don't know if I'd call him the most important, vital and irreplaceable maybe. He probably created ROB 64.

    2:03 You make a fair point. However, being the Star Fox Assault professor that I am (bc I beat the game on all three difficulty levels w/ all S flags and all ally medals), when playing multiplayer w/ my family, I played as Falco, and I won 95% of the time. My mother obviously had to play Krystal, but sometimes she played as Slippy. My father played either Fox or Peppy. My brother always played as Wolf. At least once every few months we had a Star Fox Assault tournament. I won every single tournament obviously. So we stopped them. Nowadays, I’m only playing SSBU and watching Survivor starring Jeff Probst. Season 43 premieres September 21st at 8 PM EDT on CBS.

    If the Star Fox series ever gets a proper continuation, I hope they do something to show that Arwing piloting expertise isn't the only thing that matters.
    Give us missions where Slippy enters the fray in a Landmaster or on foot, where he can put his strengths to good use. Maybe missions where he's working on some kind of machine or repair job that ends up saving the team when things are looking grim.
    Or hell, give us a game where we can choose who we play as so we can experience their strengths and weaknesses firsthand.

    I really appreciate this video. All the members of the team are important and Slippy never deserved the hate he got. (Funny how people tend to forget Falco _also_ needed saving in the first stage of 64, and he doesn't even thank you for it! Unlike Slippy.)

    • @GoodOldDaysGaming
      @GoodOldDaysGaming  4 роки тому +5

      Doesn't Falco say, "I guess I should be thankful." I suppose that doesn't mean he is or that he does thank you, but it's kind of his way of doing it. But thanks for watching and supporting Slippy! 🐸

I feel if you were to do more of these videos with other gaming characters you could become a huge hit with it. I know you are a creative writer and its truly been showcased here today. As always keep up the amazing work we are all rooting for you.

    I actually never hated Slippy. And after seeing this, I've grown to like him even more.
    Sure, Death Battle had him die in the beginning of the Fox McCloud vs Bucky O'Hare fight, but it's his death by Bucky's crew (due to thinking he was a member of the Toad Empire they oppose) that leads to Fox fighting against Bucky. Similarly, Fox blowing out the rabbit's brains was obviously fueled with plenty of hateful fury for his friend's death. He even takes Slippy's robotic legs at the end not in a desecrating manner, but as a way to honor his fallen friend.
