Okay, that was actually very interesting. I have never even heard of R.O.B. until reading about the Crash of '83. Now that I've seen it, I can honestly say that R.O.B. is probably THE MOST ANNOYING THING NINTENDO EVER INVENTED. If retailers had actually heard this thing in action for four hours a day BEFORE agreeing to sell NES systems, they never would have made it out of the gate. Very interesting indeed but I can honestly say that I don't need to go full retro and find one. Good video though.
I know. There's always emulators and roms and R.O.B.s might still be sold, especially because of Super Smash Bros. Brawl but yeah. Back then anyway, we didn't have one. Funny though, we had Super Mario All Stars on Super Nintendo that let us play Super Mario Bros. 1-3 that went to the Nintendo, and one of our next door neighbors had a Nintendo so we got to play things like Kirby's Adventure a little. Ya.y! ^^
When I was 6, I remember getting the Nintendo when it first came out. It came with Mario Brothers, Duck Hunt and Gyromite. It came with the gun and of course, the R.O.B. I think it stopped working. I just used to control the gates with the controller. Wow! I surely miss the 80's.
Nintendo should upgrade R.O.B. It would be VERY easy. Just needs a faster motor and more advanced programming. You could probably use the the components of a Gamecube to add on to R.O.B.
I don't have a NES, and I still want it! But, I want the Japanese kind.Since the red and white one is cooler than the grey and darker grey one.And it's the original.
It's called a tribute. And be appreciative. That thing saved the Video Game industry, so it's an HONOR for it to be in the game. Besides, Pit CAN'T be the only classic character that's turned new.
They should bring back R.O.B. and use him for new Wii games, and this time make him able to do more stuff and be less noisy, as well as more efficient.
Man I remember playing with R.O.B. when I was small the Nintendo was the first system I got and R.O.B. came in the NES Bundle with Duck Hunt and the NES Gun with R.O.B and Gyromite I should of taken care of my R.O.B. I miss him lol.
I had a Toy called Toby the Dog once that interacted with its own special VHSs in the same way R.O.B. did. Or at least it was meant to, my Mom doesn't recall it ever working, I think maybe it was designed for NTSC when we were PAL or something. But even if it had worked it would just have said a couple of different reactionary phrases, R.O.B. looks like it was much cooler.
The material the blocks for Stack-Up is called Fomex i think. we use it at school in design and technology. The way you describe it and the way they look fit the bill perfectly.
Yeah but in another movie, though i forgot its name is a robot alot bigger than Wall-E and looks alot like him run away from the government or something like that it was
Not just the most important object in the history of NES, but the most important object in the history of GAMING! He saved video games. I read it in an article.
