have you ever played gyromite?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.
Basically what happened was that stores didn't want to put anymore video games on the shelves since the crash of the industry in the US so Nintendo bundled the console with R.O.B. as a toy, thus saving video games in America.I keep reading this, but I never see any sources. >.>;
If it wasn't for him we wouldn't have gotten video games back then but I doubt everyone in America would have ignored such a thriving market. Besides that we could have always import games from Japan since they never had such a crash as the US.if it wasnt for him you wouldent be able to play brawl if it wasent for him there would be no nintendo
*facepalm* Without Gyromite(or R.O.B.) there probably would be no Metroid, Megaman or Smash Bros even. He saved a failing game company that was on the verge of bankruptcy from extinction. If it wasn't for Gyromite there would likely be no Nintendo. Gyromite had enough success to keep Nintendo afloat until big hit games like Super Mario Bros, The Legend of Zelda, Castlevania and Final Fantasy came to the scene. The hype from Gyromite showed the public that video games might be worth the money for consumers which allowed more interest for big hit games to come. And the success from Gyromite kept Nintendo afloat. Partly why there are so many references to him throughout games from Nintendo. Sadly up until now and even now very few people know the importance of R.O.B. in gaming history. Putting him in Brawl is the least they could do imo.He has one piece of history with Nintendo, which was largely a way to sell more consoles by making it seem futuristic.

Same. I guess combating ignorance with understanding is something I couldn't help but attempt to do. =DThis thread is fail, but I couldn't help but respond ^_^;
ROB is a terrible character.*facepalm* tl;dr
Fixed it for YaIke is a terrible character.
I see you t0mmy mah boi!R.O.B. almost took Mario's spot, but they managed to get Mario in on time. They did this by cutting out Megaman, Cloud, Sephiroth, Simon Belmont, Soma Cruz, Hitler, Jesus, and Your Mom from the roster.
It was all worth it.
Ummm....Zajice?ROB is a terrible character.
