Talk:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary

CPU in Subspace Emissary Mode? That sounds new.
From the article in question: "In single player, teams are still available. However, the second character is a CPU, and if the main character is defeated, the player takes control of the second player, until it, too, is defeated."

I knew about single-player controlled teams, but the second character can be a Computer Player (CPU)? That's news to me; I thought the other selected characters were merely extra lives, which are different from a computer-controlled player. The instruction manual and GameFAQS don't seem to corroborate this. Can you elucidate upon this claim, please, if you can? I know I've pressed every button on the controller during character selection and during gameplay in one-player mode, and certainly haven't seen any evidence about the above statement being true.
