NES R.O.B. (Robotic Operation Buddy) I don't know anyone who ever had one of these, or how it worked, but I remember it just looked ridiculous

I had one bundled with my NES. Ridiculous is an understatement.

A little video game history...

The ROB was included with the original NES because after the big video game crash a few years earlier none of the major retailers would consider stocking a new video game system. With ROB nintendo was able to sell the system as a "Robot Toy" instead of a game system. Once it had become a hit they quickly stopped producing ROB.
