R.O.B. was like the worst idea ever. Next to the powerglove in execution. So amazing that we used to pay for that stuff. :lol:

Usually it just didn’t work. It was supposed to do certain actions by watching the screen flash.
Also doubled as an easy way to cause a colorful siezure. Even then there were only two games that used it.

i loved hogans alley.
never had rob…
it never made sense to for me to
want a robot that dropped something on a plastic thing…
i could have used my toes for that.
i had and probably still have that damn running pad…
it was much easier to use sitting on the couch 😃

I \<3 duckhunt. My old roommate found a working NES at a garage sale so we actually had one in our dorm room/apartment at UB! It was awesome. I’d get drunk and pwn clay pigeons. Pull the system as far from the TV as it would go and I think I got to round 35 once. (After round 20 the games over if you miss once.)

Duck Hunt is like the greatest game ever in terms of simplicity. 🙂
