Boss Fight
The alien uses most of the gadgets you have used in the past as a means of attacking astro. These include spraying a massive gush of water with the water gadget that must be jumped over, Firing missiles with the minigun gadget and throwing vertical and horizontal shurikens with the shuriken gadget. Eventually the alien will get annoyed and slam its controller into the platform causing it to get stuck and the alien will grab onto it with its hand prompting the player to punch the aliens hand to send the alien reeling back in pain, allowing the player to use its own controller against it. Each phase has you use a different upgraded gadget, phase 1 has you use the water gadget to extinguish the aliens giant flaming boxing gloves, phase 2 has you use the shuriken gadget to destroy the blade of the aliens giant sword, and phase 3 has you use the minigun gadget to shoot down the projectiles that the alien throws at the player. Each successful defense will deal damage to both the alien and the visor before the alien steals back its controller(the color of the platform will change color depending on who has the giant controller,blue for astro,black for the alien)until eventually after shooting down the aliens projectiles with the minigun gadget the player must charge up a beam by holding the fire button down. After holding it down for long enough the alien will be blasted into space before being destroyed in a massive explosion, ending the fight and sending the vr visor crashing to the floor(don't worry the ship fixes it). Defeating the alien also rewards the player with the E.T crawl home trophy.

Unlike the other bosses the alien cannot be seen dazed and defeated on the world selection screen when beaten due to the aliens boss fight being its own level and not part of a world.

The alien has red eyes with the vr visor on but is unable to actually do anything with it other than look cool.

You can also gain the Shoot the shu trophy by shooting the presidents name in the credits that play after beating the alien with the minigun gadget(if you miss you can always replay the credits if you want).
