Background

R.O.B., the Robotic Operating Buddy from the NES. Has seen few game appearances but joins the fray in Brawl! R.O.B. saving the video gaming industry. People were losing interest in video games quickly but then came R.O.B. who played NES games WITH you. Suddenly people were getting reinterested in video games again and although R.O.B. didn't last very long on the market he did his job of saving the industry. If he hadn't come along we may not have video games today.

Role in SSE

Spoilers

R.O.B.'s role in the Subspace Emissary is something hardly any of us would have expected. He plays the role of the Ancient Minister, the one in charge of the subspace bombs. He feels sorrowful with the task he must do, sending R.O.B.s to activate bombs, only for them to meet their doom. When he gets a little too soft at the bomb factory, Ganondorf takes charge and commands the R.O.B.'s to start the bombs. He attempts to stop them, but does so unsuccessfully and is attacked by them, burning his robes and showing he is R.O.B. as Ganondorf has full control.
