A STUPID QUESTION I NEED ANSEWRD!

[Splinter Sensei]

I feel stupid for asking but wat is canon i know it has somthing to do with the story line but can

you guys give me more info about it?

[Dr. Wilopolis]

Canon means an occurence that actually happened in the story line. Such as James McCloud dying is considered canon, the events of SF64 are considered canon.

[Mr. Krystal]

Similarly, the events of the Star Fox Nintendo Power comic are no longer consider canon.

Canon means "official at this point in time".
