R.O.B.

Deleted 7 years 7 months ago Posts: 54340	Do you guys remember ROB (Robot Operating Buddy) that came with the original NES? He only was included during the first year of US production and was replaced by the now famous Zapper. ROB included several gyros that he manipulated. There were only two games that were ROB compatible. One was Gyromite and the other was Stack-it. ROB didn't seem to ever take hold in the uS marketplace (Japan saw the same reaction to ROB but decided to market him to the US anyway!) ROB is a forgotten piece of video game history, even though he kinda sucked, and should have a hallowed place in all of our hearts ALL HAIL R.O.B. !!!

He was fun to play with for like five minutes and then it was like, ok this is gay. The more I think about it he was really useless and boring.
	I don't know about you, Miss Kitty, but I feel so much... yummier

Didn't R.O.B. play part in the Starfox series, or is that just another guy?
