OMG I FREAKIN' CALLED IT! Look at the time I made this thread! I was so right! A few of the minor details were off, but the important thing, AM = ROB, I SO CALLED!!!!! WOOOO!!!
-----------------
Ok, so I was thinking about ROB, and why the hell he's in the game. I mean, what's so special about ROB anyway, he's just a generic enemy in the Subspace Army. Then it hit me:
The playable ROB must be special!
Why else would he be playable? Ok, so then, what makes this ROB special? Here's my theory:
ROB = The Ancient Minister
Think about it. With the reveal of that Tabuu guy, I think its apparent that he is the final boss of the SSE. Meaning the AM is under his service, perhaps his right-hand man. Ok, then look at all of the Shadow characters, like Bowser, Zelda, and Diddy. It seems that the shadow bugs swarm onto a character, and make an evil copy of them. Then one of the villains turns the good character into a trophy and takes off.
Ok, so my theory goes like so: The playable ROB is the leader of all the ROBs. Tabuu and the villains used the shadow bugs to make an evil copy of ROB, and then turned him into a trophy. The evil copy put on a disguise and became the AM. All the other ROBs can't tell that this is an evil copy, so they still follow orders, even if its a suicide mission. When you watch the part of SSE with Marth, and the two ROBs set off the Subspace Bomb, you can see them bracing themselves, and looking sad about it. I think they don't want to blow up stuff, but they're still following orders.
Later in the SSE, you must have to fight the AM, and shortly afterward, you probably find ROBs trophy, set him free, and he joins you to get revenge.
It fits. ROB can hover, and the AM can hover. The AM has no appendages to speak of, and ROBs arms are probably hidden in that big coat the AM wears. ROB leads the other ROBs, and the AM commands the ROBs.
That would explain why this ROB is a playable character. He's special. He's integral to the story of SSE.
Ok, discuss!
