R.O.B - NES - Robotic Operating Buddy
For those who do not know, the Robotic Operating Buddy was an NES accessory designed to be the "Family Robot", and to boost the image of the NES in America.

The peripheral never took off, and only two games were made to function with the device.

Good Lord, R.O.B.'s BACK! Run for your lives! Run away from the most useless "gimmick" peripheral to hit U.S. shores!
(note: this is BEFORE Nintendo's diversion into 3D 'handheld' gaming)
