'''R.O.B.''' (short for '''Robotic Operating Buddy''') is an accessory for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] who recently made appearances in a few ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' games. In Japan, it was known as the '''Famicom Robot''', which was short for '''Family Computer Robot'''. R.O.B. functions by translating flashes of information on the television screen into physical actions (using technology similar to the Zapper Gun). R.O.B. was first used for the game ''Gyromite''. R.O.B.'s seem to have a relationship with one another, as when the R.O.B.'s are about to detonate the bomb [[Outside the Ancient Ruins]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', one of the R.O.B.'s is seen waving goodbye to the [[Ancient Minister]]. | '''R.O.B.'''

Players could control R.O.B. with the control pad to make him raise and lower gyroscopes. To make the gyroscope spin, the player must set the object in the gyroscope spinner and then balance it on one of the two round trays that are connected to controller two. Placing a gyro on the red tray lowers the red gates in the game; placing a gyro on the blue tray lowers the blue gates. | Players could control R.O.B. with the control pad to make him raise and lower gyroscopes.
