Title: Should Nintendo release a R.O.B. Peripheral for Wii?
Post by: Chozo Ghost on June 07, 2009, 02:01:06 AM
This would probably be just as stupid of a peripheral as the original R.O.B. was and even if it were released it probably would only have one or two games that supported it, but on the other hand it is worth noting that robotics have advanced by enormous leaps and bounds since the mid-1980s, so if Nintendo actually did release a Robotic Buddy for the Wii it could be far more advanced and far more capable than R.O.B. was on the NES.

It could be something that communicates wirelessly with the Wii via the same bluetooth technology that the Wii-mote runs on, so this means the Wii R.O.B. wouldn't have wires to get tangled up in. It could actually be able to communicate with you verbally via speech synthesizers built into its body and give you advice and stuff for the games you are playing, or perhaps even play against you via a tiny wii-mote and chuck built into his robotic hands. He would be great to have if you wanted to play a multiplayer game but didn't have any friends over.

But other than that, I have no idea what a Wii R.O.B. could actually do to justify its existence.

Why not just release a Virtual R.O.B. channel?

Well, Microsoft is planning a M.I.L.O. so why not?
