Cullination Royalty: Andross Part 2

Part 2: Why you should love him



In part 1 I stated how Ganondorf and Bowser get more featured and talked about than Andross does.  Why is this?  Andross is better than both Bowser and Ganondorf and here is why:

Why is Andross better than Bowser?

1.  All Bowser has is his fire balls and strength to defend himself.  Andross on the other hand (no pun intended) has magic powers.  I mean, he is a giant floating head with two hands after all

2.  Bowser can't even take over a Kingdom successfully. While Andross is the ruler of his own planet, Venom!  Not only that but Andross ruled the Lylat System somewhere down the line.

3.  Bowser has a son that he every once in a while takes care of.  That means that while Bowser is doing some important bad guy stuff, Bowser Jr. gets in his horns!  For all of you fathers out there, do you remember a time when you were trying to watch the most important football game for your team.  Then your offspring comes in the room and starts screaming and throwing things all over the place!  You can't concentrate!  That is what it is like for Bowser when he tries to take over the Mushroom Kingdom and he has to bring Bowser Jr. along.

4.  Because Bowser has a son, that also means that he has a wife somewhere.  Which also means that she gets in his way too.  "Why are you always chasing after this Peach girl?!  Is she prettier than me?!"  "You're just jealous of Mario because he knows how to treat a lady right!"  All this bickering from Bowser's (unknown) wife gets him no where.

Why is Andross better than Ganondorf?

1.  Ganondorf has limbs.  That means that Link can slice off his arm or chop his neck.  Andross though, doesn't have arms, legs, or a neck.

2.  Andross' different forms are much more effective.  Both Andross and Ganondorf have different forms when they fight their respectable foes.  Ganondorf though you usually use the same  tactic to defeat him.  Also, all Ganondorf's forms just get more ugly as they go on.  Andross' forms are more complex.  In one StarFox game he is cube after all.

3.  Andross was the ruler of the Lylat System and of a planet.  Ganondorf (much like Bowser) doesn't take control of anything.  He tries to...but fails.  He usually tries to go after all the pieces of the triforce...how does that work out for you, Ganon?

So as you can see, Andross is better than Ganondorf and Bowser but yet is not mentioned as often.

Come back on Friday as Andross' Cullination Royalty continues!  What did you think about this edition of royalty?  Sound off in the comment section below to let us know!  That rhymed!
