R.O.B. the Robot (http://www.bermuda.ch/balduin/blog/rob.jpg)was an adorable add-on for the NES that didn't really work. InProject Guard, Shigeru Miyamoto's Wii U dual-screen take on tower defense, R.O.B. the Robot is an insane stressor, an unrelenting sneak that ruins your carefully-laid security plans.

Playing like a lost Nintendoland mini-game, Project Guard does take keen advantage of the Wii U's often underutilized controller. While only a single person can play at this point, it's also a deeply amusing group activity. Guardcertainly doesn't feel like a standalone game, even with the presence of a long lost Nintendo icon, but based on Miyamoto's comments this experiment is likely tied into another of Nintendo's recently-resurrected classics.
