R.O.B. = worst character in smash history

[c4pt41n 0l1m4r]

Finally, january 31, the game was released in japan, and within a few days tons of information and videos leaked out on the internet. With a grin, i soon discovered that some of the best characters returned, like marth, captain falcon, Luigi, and ness (well, ness kinda blows). I was really excited when i found out that wolf was joining the fight. Don't get me wrong, toon link licks balls too, but i expected something stupid like that, replacing one clone with an almost exact clone. But then i look at the final rouster, and there at the bottom i see R.O.B. At that moment, i died a little inside. I couldn't believe they wasted their time on a character that no one gives a s*** about. There was so many other characters they could of designed, like ridley or, idk, MEGAMAN. Hell, I WOULD OF WELCOMED BACK PICHU WITH OPEN ARMS! I guess what im trying to say is that R.O.B.'s a horrible idea, and he'll probably be the last character to get, just like mr. Game and Watch. Besides that, the game looks awesome, and i look forward to kicking all my friends a$$e$ at brawl.

Do you even know anything about ROB?

He's much more applicable for a roster seat in Brawl then Ridley or Megaman combined.

[Nakto]

Have you even seen any of the videos with Rob. He's actually quite strong and an all around good character, he also has alot of history with nintendo and he should definately be in the game.

[Ademisk]

He has one piece of history with Nintendo, which was largely a way to sell more consoles by making it seem futuristic. (OMG, THE NES HAS A ROBOT, I MUST BUY IT!) At least Megaman and Ridley have been in games. No, sorry, I'm sure there was a ROB game. At least Megaman and Ridley have been in GOOD games.


And this isn't saying he's not good in Brawl, just that he's kind of stupid in general.

[Spoon]

Totally. And if you say "Well, he's not a fighter!", then think back to Captain Olimar. Before I knew he was confirmed, I dismissed the thought of having him in as dumb. But look at him--he kicks major @$$, wide range, varied gameplay, and long range, I know you like him because you named yourself after him.

Brawl is a lot about a very varied roster, and having Megaman in would be like a blue Samus, and Ridley would be like a flying, purple Bowser.

[Colenstien]

Idk about that, but ROB does deserve a spot in the roster.

So, OP calm down and eat some fudge. That helps.

[phantomphungus]

You don't know anything about R.O.B. There's a thread made to inform why he was the best pick for brawl. HE SAVED THE ENTIRE FREAKING VIDEO GAME INDUSTRY! Look it up. He deserves to be a character more than anyone else, even though I would still prefer Ridley or Sukapon, he deserved it more. He is the most iconic character in Nintendo history besides Mario, or at least among hard core fans. And also, R.O.B dosen't have to be the last character you unlock. And again, he's one of the best characters in the game. He has a super fast, infinite range, 15% and high knockback projectile, has probably the best recovery, and has another even faster projectile that can be picked up and tossed again and again until it falls of the stage.

In short, you're an uninformed spaming loser that dosn't know a thing about nintendo history, other than the fact that they make video games.

Thank you, that's all im trying to say, just with a long, over exagerated, over dramatic post:laugh:

[Pluvia]

He's a good Character but not one I would've chosen for the game.

[clayfighter0]

With a grin, i soon discovered that some of the best characters returned, like marth, captain falcon, Luigi, and ness (well, ness kinda blows).

Ya ness really doesnt blow so no one appreciates you saying those things im sure ademisk is mad u said that ness blows and if Simna saw this he'd kill you!!!! but r.o.b is a little out of place ya... but he is still cool but fighting him is kinda awkward. And ridley would be impossible to make as a playable character he's to effin LARGE!!!!!!!!!

He was in Mario Kart DS.

[Viper JLT4GOV]

ROB is the WFT character of the rouster, but that don't mean he's the worst character, he's quite poupler and orignal than most of the Nintendo characters.

[LittleKey]

Not to mention the real games he was used with, Gyromite and Stacker. R.O.B. is just cool, if you don't understand that, I can't help you.

[hippochinfat!!]

ROB played a huge huge huge role in video game history.

GTFO

[LastReaper]

Well, I agree with some points, and I disagree with some points too. I don't really like R.O.B. When I unlocked him in mario kart ds, I was like "..........ok.......I guess, heeee's funny, and.....ok". I had the same reaction when I saw him in SSBB roster. They could've put another character instead, like, maybe, I dunno, Bowser jr/shadow mario (witch i'm sure would've had a better move set). But I know that R.O.B. is quite important for nintendo and I respect that. And he seems to kick *** too! And beside, I said to myself, there's 34 other characters so thats not too bad... even maybe I will play with him and appreciate! ( I don't own the game ). If nintendo think that he deserves a place in da game, then I'm alright with that...

[Oceanborn]

Only one game??

Burned, lol. The OP was so ignorant.

[Shadow Calibur]

No one expected a Nintendo peripheral to be in the roster.

That's what makes him so cool.

[Red&Silver]

i loled at the toon link part because i couldnt agree more

[NESSBOUNDER]

The fact that you think Ness blows proves you have terrible taste in characters and your opinion is voided.

In all seriousness though, I disliked ROB to begin with, but he's grown on me. Besides, if he wasn't in, we may have gotten Ridley or Megaman instead...yechh!!

[Juicy]

this guy needs a flashback to 1984 in newyork, when all the magic happened, and the legacy began

R.O.B.'s a horrible idea

[Ademisk]

R.O.B was a gimmick.


Also, the R.O.B boards are bad. I'm scared of coming here.

[Ademisk]

Wow, way to freaking fail SWF.

[Oceanborn]

R.O.B. has been a gimmick all throughout Nintendo history, as you may or may not have noticed from the list. R.O.B. IS a part of Nintendo history, just not the more popular side. It's about time he made a cameo in SSB, he already has in most other games, why not SSB?

And the only thing making these boards bad are people who start UNECESSARY topics like these.

[Ademisk]

True.

And I'm not saying R.O.B. doesn't deserve to be in SSBB, or that he's a bad character, don't start getting pissed thinking I'm saying that.

I'm saying R.O.B. is stupid. I have nothing against people who play him, but I think he's stupid.

[Warlock*G]

R.O.B. is featured in the most awesome party game ever, WarioWare. Therefore, he deserves to be in.

Case closed.

[Rizzle1110]

I don't think R.O.B. should be in brawl, they could of put a better character in like Megaman or someone other than a robot.

[PsychoIncarnate]

I don't think R.O.B. should be in brawl, they could of put a better character in like Megaman or someone other than a robot.

They weren't going to add Megaman to the game if R.O.B. was or wasn't in the game...

How the hell hard is that to understand?

Do people have thick heads?


There was no roster limit, the creator chose characters he wanted to...

He decided on R.O.B., R.O.B. didn't steal anyone's spot...


If he wanted them in, they would have been regardless

[Prevail]

Darkurai just won this thread with his last post XD
(I don't have anything against Pichu and G&W)

My opinion on this subject: ROB is a very unique character and I think he deserves to be in brawl. Although I could bad-mouth other characters on the roster, but I won't. There is no need to bother other people about character preferences. =)

[PANTSMAGEE]

cCANTAIN OLIMAR SHUT UP rob is so famous he is in designs outside of nintendo(there used to be a little robot with a little piece of paper that looks just like rob same colors also and walks... i forget the name of it though)

[frankisvital]

I don't think R.O.B. should be in brawl, they could of put a better character in like Megaman or someone other than a robot.

Spot the error.

[Admiral Bowser]

Dont diss R.O.B! I mean come on! A Robot in a Smash bros game!? He's an amazing character and needs to be respected! You'd never see a Robot in a fighting game cept brawl (I'm not certain of it) and robots rule! and C4ptain 0lim4r, u need to keep them pathetic comments to yourself! Besides I seen worse characters in smash not mentioning names (*cough roy cough*).
No rizzle1110, Megaman dont deserve to be in such a great game in, especially when Samus can own him!
Back to topic, R.o.b also made brawl more epic with his appearance in the SSE.
The point is "Rob Rules!"

[Ademisk]

Megaman's already been in fighting games, along with dozens of other robots in other fighting games.

[Oceanborn]

True.

And I'm not saying R.O.B. doesn't deserve to be in SSBB, or that he's a bad character, don't start getting pissed thinking I'm saying that.

I'm saying R.O.B. is stupid. I have nothing against people who play him, but I think he's stupid.

LOL, that's fair I guess. Not everyone has to like the same things.

[technomancer]

ROB is in

Megaman is out

No more QQ

No more I would have raped you with Zero if he was in brawl johns

[56k]

Hey guys, cry more.
