R.O.B.

The Robotic Operating Buddy was released in an attempt to get the NES into toy stores that didn’t want to sell video game systems. Only two R.O.B. games were produced, but this didn’t stop from ingraining him in the minds of classic video gamers around the world.

Games:
As accessory: Gyromite, Stack-Up
As a character: Mario Kart DS

One of the heaviest characters from Mario Kart DS, R.O.B. has been given much more nimble controls. Eyes that shoot lasers and other attacks make R.O.B. a robot you don’t want to mess with!

His unexpected entry into the Smash Bros series, nostalgia, and his fighting style earn R.O.B. the coveted top spot on our Smash-O-Meter!
