Yes R.O.B. (Robotic Operating Buddy) also know as the "Famicom Robot".



I remember it vaguely. It was a NES accessoir you could play games with, but I can't remember what it's specific functions where. If you know this or even own(ed) you're pretty hardcore and you should share your wisdom. :smrt:

here's the Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R.O.B.) on it.
And here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oFvYokMSIo&mode=related&search=) you can see it in action in Nintendo's first tv commercial.

I only ever seen it in Starfox. It looks quite flimsy.

can't you race as him in mario kart ds? ^^

Yes, he did a cameo ^^

ha! i thought the picture looked familiar and so did the name ^^

Hah! I never realized ROB from Star Fox was a reference to this. That's awesome.
