R.O.B.

R.O.B. (Robotic Operating Buddy) is a robot built in 1985 by the Japanese game console manufacturer Nintendo. Nintendo's intentions were not to sell R.O.B., however, but instead to promote their Nintendo Entertainment System to a market shaken by the video game crash of 1983. Resulting in being no more then a marketing ploy, R.O.B. developed an existential crisis and was treated like dirt for decades before appearing in ROBLOX.
