Fox McCloud
is an anthropomorphic video game character and the chief protagonist of the ''Star Fox'' series. He was created and designed by Shigeru Miyamoto and Takaya Imamura. As his name implies, he is a red fox and the main character of the franchise. In each game, the player controls Fox in his Arwing, with a few games such as ''Star Fox Adventures'' and ''Star Fox: Assault'' where he is controlled on the ground. He is the leader of the Star Fox team and is joined by his wingmates on various missions. In the English release of ''Star Fox 64'', he was voiced by Mike West, who would go on to reprise the role in the English release of ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U''. In both the Japanese release of ''Star Fox 64'' and ''Super Smash Bros.'', Fox's voices were done by Shinobu Satouchi (speaking in English with a Japanese accent for the English version). For English dialogue of ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' and ''Star Fox Adventures'', Fox's voice was done by Rare's Steve Malpass. In ''Star Fox: Assault'', his voice was done by Jim Walker in the English release and by Kenji Nojima in the Japanese release. Nojima reprised his role for ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', as did Walker for the English version. Nojima reprised his role once again in the Japanese version of ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U''. In ''Star Fox 64 3D'', he is voiced by Takashi Ōhara in Japanese. ==Concept and creation==
In 1992, Nintendo and Argonaut Software collaborated to produce a 3D space shooter for the Super Nintendo, provisionally titled 'SnesGlider'. The development team, led by Shigeru Miyamoto, redesigned what had been a tech demo into a rail shooter, with Nintendo designing the game and Argonaut handling the programming aspects. However, without a story, it lacked incentives to play beyond flying and shooting. Miyamoto sketched out a fictional universe, but could not decide on a natural hero to convey a sense of an epic space saga. Names under consideration included "Star Wolf", "Star Sheep", "Star Fox", "Star Sparrow", and "Star Hawk".〔 Miyamoto finally settled on having a fox as the main character after visiting Fushimi Inari-taisha in Kyoto, the head shrine of Inari, a Japanese ''kami'' associated with foxes. Inari is portrayed as being able to fly, and its shrines, particularly the one in Kyoto, are surrounded by red arches (''torii''), giving Miyamoto the idea of a fox that could fly through arches.〔 Fox's face was modeled after Inari's, and usually wears a "red turtleneck" or "red scarf" around his neck, like the statue, with the exception of his design from ''Star Fox: Assault''. Fox McCloud's personality is heavily based on Shigeru Miyamoto's personality, with the surname 'McCloud' being suggested by Dylan Cuthbert, one of the Argonaut team.〔〔
