R.O.B. + Gyromite: Top Level
Vložit
- čas přidán 7. 01. 2016
- My robotic buddy R.O.B. completes the last level (Phase 40) of Gyromite spinning two tops simultaneously!
I am aware it can be done by just spinning one (can you figure out how?), but I am more interested on the spinning top part than the game. - Sport

Kids will never understand that R.O.B is not just a fighter in smash, he was a true gamer
one of us!
O N E O F U S.
He actually saved Nintendo in the west.
This robot helped sneak the nes into the toy isle
But you are a kid. SMH
Something about Rob’s ability to “see” commands via the encoded color flashes will always fascinate me.
Oh, wow! I was wondering what the flashes were! I honestly thought the game might have been having some corruption issues or something. 😂
I had somehow never heard of R.O.B. before today, and I would have been prime age when it came out. I bet it was amazing in ‘85! I’m still impressed with it, but I’m not patient enough for it now. Lol. It did make me realize how long things took back in the day, and maybe this guy helped pave the road of patience necessary for dial-up internet. Lol. Thinking about dial-up makes me want to go use the internet on my computer and make a phone call at the same time just because we can now. Hahah
@@racheeerach uses something similar to lightguns.. xd
R.O.B. was amazing. He did a great job saving the gaming industry with Mario. What a robot! Let's all raise a glass of motor oil for him! To R.O.B.!
My only question is this: How does he spin the tops?
To spin up the tops R.O.B. places them on the tower on its left. It has a hole for the axis of the top and a rim that starts to rotate when it feels the weight of the top.
zoclates Oh.
To R.O.B!
Listening to this with raycon is not a pleasant experience
I'm amazed how long those tops spin to this day.
Like other companies of the 80's and before, they built their products with quality.
They make a great paperweight
@@sethhorst6158 Poggers!!!
That's the one thing that keeps going through my head watching videos of this thing. How did they do it? I legit don't understand. The button caps they get placed in must be really smooth plastic.
@@darkl3ad3r they are heavy gyro tops with a narrow round point, they spin for ages wherever you left them and the caps are indeed smooth concave dishes. not visible in normal images but under the top metal layer is a thick steel washer making up most of the width and the top shaft is mounted loosely on a pin so it doesnt interfere with rotation. rob and his accessories have a fair amount of glue at certain critical areas which has all failed with age so inner components which would not have been visible nondestructively can now be seen directly when the glue fails on its own, my particular sample was quite dysfunctional because of all the glue failing
To this day, ROB is some ludicrously impressive tech sold in the 1980s as an accessory to a game system.
I've had a R.O.B. for 15 years with none of the racks or gyros, so I've never seen it in action... this is the coolest thing ever!
Love the video. I'm 38 and played that game as a kid. I have a 5 year old daughter that I just played it with and I had her control the pipes. She said "I'm faster than R.O.B."
She's not wrong. :P
What _isn't_ faster than R.O.B.?
Dinosaurs fossilizing are faster than ROB.
So is wood petrifying.
A turtle on a cartoon is faster than ROB.
Sakurai should add that Gyromite level as a stage in Ultimate, as well as the doctor guy as a trophy. R.O.B. being only represented with himself is not okay
They have both
Trophies are not in ultimate :(
Andres E. Gomez M. You mean Professor Hector
@@frazercowan4030 This was before we knew trophies would be replaced with spirits.
They should make it so that if a player plays as ROB and they throw a Gyro it switches the doors lol
wow. i would not have the patience to play this game
Xavier Newell nobody did.
Either play two player or on an emulator with the a and b buttons handy
It actually looks really challenging with multi tasking. I like it!
Xavier Newell It was SUPER annoying...even in the 80s. Promise. You know Nintendo and their weird ideas for products. LOL
but rob has
Legends say that those tops are still spinning.
🤣🤣 This comment deserves more love
It's amazing to see my main in SSB4 still being used for the NES system till these days.
You main a good character
I remember seeing the commercials for this when I was kid. This is the first time I've seen it in action. This still looks like some futuristic next gen gaming shit to me. A robot that you play games with? That's the future man.
Normie: Playing a platforming game.
Next Level: Pressing buttons on a second controller in order to complete a platforming game.
Out of this world: Using spinning tops to hold down the buttons on the second controller for you.
*ASCENDED: Using your controller to command a robot who spins and places spinning tops on a second controller for you.*
turning images into text is not a very good idea
@@Nep3taLeijon good idea in concept tho but yea
If Nintendo made a faster more advanced R.O.B for the switch, it would sell like crazy. It would be way better than Labo
IKR? I really hope they make a modern version of ROB one day
Frazer Cowan Dude I could find a cardboard box and call it a labo but this...we need this back
New idea. Make a working ROB *out of* Labo.
Life was slower in the 80s
90$ just for 1 gyromite
I love that you last move has the top fall off the red button at the end, thus finishing the level.
the man is a spinner master
So ROB is a fighter, a racer and a gamer. Long live ROB
The future is HERE!
Miguel Melgoza haha
The future WAS here!
@@fat_sonic it was. Over 30 fuckin' years ago!
That's awesome. I got the deluxe set for Xmas in '85. I don't think I ever completed a single stage on Gyromite with ROB. Years later my brother tore his guts out trying to make a bong out of him.
Interesting idea for a bong
Ashstrodamus1 I might have to report this comment I'm so mad lol I love weed tho but Rob is worth moreeeee
Ashstrodamus1 ...HE DID WHAT NOW?!??! Put boiling water over him!!
Damn!
Robotic Operating Bong (R.O.B)
this is gonna go unnoticed but I'm saying it any ways
tbh R.O.B was quite innovative at the time it was made. People back then must've been like "woah, a robot that operates the second controller with spinning tops and some mechanical buttons? Cool!"
Here to learn to learn more about my Smash 4 main. Thanks for uploading
I simply love how he consantly stares at the screen....lol
Wow. 30 years later and he can play the game perfectly. Great video 👍
Very cool! I always wanted one as a kid (and even now) but _damn_ I never realized how slow the gameplay was with ROB.
OMG this robot use to aggravate me so much waiting for it to pick up the disk then for it to put it in the right color. Those were the days. Kids will never live such happy times
I congradulate you on your perfect timing with squishing the smiks and your abillity to not only win with ROB on any level but the final level is absloutly amazing. You my friend are a legend.
I never had the R.O.B version of gyromite, no wonder they gave you loads of time for each level!
Exactly!! It was better to use the second controller to control the locks. The robot was very slow. You said you did not have the R.O.B. version of this game? You didn't miss a thing.
We need more of this type of Gyromite gameplay honestly. This is just so interestingly different and unique of a game
Yes! I loved this puzzle game.
You brought back some memories. Thank you
im so proud of him
Nintendo was a genius and still is in damn good technology for 1985
the amount of patience strategy to complete this is quite amazing.
Had this thing as a kid and never knew what it was or how to play it... glad i stumbled onto this video... every so often i'd have a flashback of this robot and asked myself what the hell was the purpose for it lol...
Extra style points for that last plunger lift
Thanks so much for sharing this when I was a kid I had this gyromite, duck hunt & the running game with the mat - Gyromite was slow. It would make me mad - lol!! I appreciated it though. Brings back sooo many great memories with my family & siblings 🙏🏾🙏🏾😊😊
This video is a prime example of what I tell people all the time. Nintendo is the most innovative gaming company in the business.
Always have been!
They just... aren't too good at making decisions as a company.
@@KiwiTheRetroGal **Cough** Drift
@@KiwiTheRetroGal Huh? They seem to have been better decision makers in the hardware business than *Sega* were.
@101Volts yeah but at least Sega had hall sensors in their joysticks lmao
Axl Rose playing with ROB and singing-> "Little patience, mm yeah, mm yeah
Need a little patience, yeah
Just a little patience, yeah
Some more patience, yeah (I've been walking the streets at night)
Just trying to get it right (A little patience, yeah). "
Nice toy and idea for 1985. 80s kick ass
lmfao
Those spin longer than fidget spinners
AdManOfChaos i love fidget spinners! Thanks for saying fidget spinner
Shihao Chey best insult ever
@@shihaochey6704 Truely, fidget spinners tear people apart from each other.
I would like, but... *69 likes*
*NOBODY LIKE THIS COMMENT*
It’s at 69 likes
Mad skills. I am really impressed.
I wanna go back!! Thank you for the memories
Dude you are expert level! I had one of those when they first came out, but as a 7 year old I didn’t have the patience to maneuver the game with ROB. I still have ROB and all of the pieces somewhere in my parent’s garage.
Is it Just me or is rob the most adorable robot in existence-i mean Just look at him
*Now You're Playing With Power since 1985*
Actually 1983 🇯🇵
I didn't buy an NES set with ROB. I was a little late for that. My set had the console, two controllers, zapper, and Mario and Duck Hunt on the same cartridge. But looking at that box, looking at the way the controller is set up, made the old thing feel new again. It brings back how big that cardboard box was, and how the styrofoam padding smelled, and the squeaky sound that padding made. And how hard the plastic zapper was in my hand, and the way it clicked. Just bringing back all those details.
Wow!! Thank u for the good ole memorys 😥
Amazing! Well done
I couldn't help but =) for six solid minutes. Thanks for the upload.
I'm 38. We had this game when we were kids. And I could not for the life me figure out how R.O.B. works.
OMG!! that was Absolutely AMazing!!!!
Hi. Im ROB too lol. I had all of this in Christmas of 1986. This was some crazy stuff back in '86 compared to Atari 2600 and 5200 or Collecovision or Intelivision. I wore out my first Nintendo by either 89 or 90. Then got the one with the orange zapper and SMB. So I had two Duck Hunt's and SMB. I held onto R.O.B. and the spinner setup platforms for a few more years. Sadly like a idiot I threw them out. I maybe got Robot Operating Buddy to work with Gyromite generally on 6 occasions as proficient as this in the video. A lot of them never really worked right out of the box for some reason. Or worked inconsistently. But no kid in my neighborhood that I knew of had him I miss him.
That was awesome! I might consider buying the Family Computer Robot for my Famicom, and ROB for the NES. Hes super cool!
Can we all just acknowledge what a freaking awesome idea for a product R.O.B is? And this thing came out in the 80s? I feel like there's so much potential here that isn't being tapped into, especially as someone who grew up not really having anyone else in the house who was wanted to play games with me. Kids today would love this thing.
Amazing!
Beautiful
This is the game that came with my NES back in 85 and ROB himself lol 🤖🎮📺🎮🤖
I already wish they would make a brand new robot friend that would actually play any game console with you like Xbox 360 and Playstation by actually giving the robot hands that can fit a whole controller.
This brings back childhood memories.
My NES was a hand-me-down that came with a copy of Gyromite, but no R.O.B. Never even heard of R.O.B. until years later. I had no idea I was playing Gyromite the wrong way!
I bought this Robot Game for my 2 boys for Xmas 1985. They were 6 & 8. I thought this was the coolest game I had ever seen. I was right. They are both great gamers & computer literate.
and to think this guy is literally one of the best fighters in smash ultimate...
rob looks like hes having nam flashbacks the whole video
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that’s savage!
this seems like a such a complex method of gaming and i would love to try it. The back and forth of putting the spinners after spinning them and trying to move them on and off buttons to raise and lower the pillars. I've never even heard of such a complex video game untill brothers friend searched up R.O.B. well we were playing smash bro for wii u
I always wondered what game R.O.B was from had no idea he was an actually toy this is one of the most wild devices ever
Of course, it didn't work as most of us expected it to work at the time of its release. It could've been the marketing that launched our expectations beyond anything that was rational. I'm really not sure what I expected when I was a kid, opening my new NES Deluxe Set for the first time. It just seemed so futuristic and high-tech. But in hindsight, R.O.B. is really a fascinating experiment. Like a marvel that was meant to be played and mastered - with all its limitations - even more so than the two games that were made for it. After a few weeks I tossed it aside, thinking it was crap, and that it would've been impossible to beat Gyromite using it. In the 80's, people were used to consoles like the Atari 2600, and cheap home computers like the Commodore 64 or the VIC 20. There were a number of half-a$$ed games that were hardly tested, and some were unplayable if they even worked at all. It was easy to throw R.O.B. in the same huge pile of useless products and software. Same with the Power Glove...though some people have now mastered that...apparently.
My God! You must have the patience of a saint!
SO INTENSE YOU CAN'T PLAY IT ALONE!
If you've ever seen Game B, you'll know how patently absurd this assertion is.
I DID NOT EXPECT THAT WELL IMPRESSED FOR 80S
you have to admit this is super cool back in the day
Happy birthday R.O.B. 🎉🎁🎂🎊
i cant believe how much of a gamer the little robot is
And just like that, I want a R.O.B.
This is awesome
R.O.B. Seems like a super cool robot in the 80s
Very Very good!! Greath! O need this robot!!
Took you 35 years to complete a level waiting on him lol
Rob destroyed TVs back in the day ....i didn't use it more than once...but I got plenty of use from the blaster.... so many memories i got the nes from NYC for Christmas by the next Christmas everyone had one but for a year i was the coolest kid in school
I wish I could find this, I had it when I was younger.
The robot was awesome, but it took too damn long!!
Before the rovers on Mars there was R.O.B. on NES!!
And, R.O.B. never took his eyes off the screen, true multiplayer right there!!!! 😛
Does anyone know where I can buy it? I know it's no longer in production but I'm sure it's somewhere
Wow!! Best days as a kid 😪
I bought one of these in pretty good shape, but it has no parts. I need this whole setup to make it move cuz it won’t move? Also the arms slide down the torso every time I pull them up. Did I get a bad one?
This was my first Nintendo game. I got the Gyromite/Duck Hunt Combo and Robi the Robot would always get me killed on this game.
so this robot is part of reference for making Wall-E model robot
@@glitchm.c.9931 you're blind
This so epic.
one of these days nintendo will give rob the comeback to deserves
this is super fing crazy !
woah! That spinner looked a little dangerous at 4:55!
R.O.B. was moving kinda of slow. It probably would be faster to just grap the player two joystick with your other hand and move the red and blue locks yourself. My best childhood friend had this game 38 years ago. He would either have me or his younger brother control the locks while he moved through the game: grabbing all the plants. I had only seen my friend use the robot once. Now I understand why.
This could still be a good game. With the stuff we have now we can make something like this, but a bit smoother.
With the advances in artificial intelligence and robotics I don’t see why Nintendo can’t make a R.O.B. 2.0 for the switch, even if it’s just for specifically programmed timed buddy challenges and responses to imagery or WiFi signals.
John Lambdas That’d be awesome!!!!!
I think Nintendo should lay off the gimmicks for a while
@@chip6933 hope you like ring fit adventures... and their never gonna stop with that stuff and if they simply regulate it to optional accessories what's the harm?
Rob is adorable
*Epic Gameplay*
Hello, I do not know how to contact you, I wanted to know if it is possible to use a few minutes of the game process that appears in your video for a video on my channel about ROB, of course credited both when the footage is shown and in the final credits.
Rob doesn’t have his own game. He’s just an accessory
Wow it makes the power glove look practical. I still want one though...
Ok I am interested what was rob used for I remember seeing this as a kid and I couldn’t get one so what is he used for
Say whatever u want but pretty darn cool for 1985 gaming
This looks so slow yet so cool at the same time
A rob that works..... wow lol awesome!!!
