R.O.B. in Viewtiful Joe!

[Divine E]

Hey guys! Your Sexy Sombrero Man, Divine E here! Hoo-Rah! Well, back in the day, before I had Wii or DS, I had the GameCube. My cousin also had a Gamecube. Well, my Cousin's GC came with this demo disc that had sereral game Demos. I played them all on my GC, and out of the ones on there, I found a true gem. Viewtiful Joe. Now, I really wanted this game, however, I did not buy it til some time. In fact, I didn't buy it until the summer of 2008. It is a good game, even though I can't beat the friggin Helicopter on the first level. Well, when I got it, I noticed something... Something that I almost missed. R.O.B. Take a look.



See? He is right there on the back of the case. Just sitting there for no apparent reason. Remember that this game was made before Brawl. First of all, who was behind this Cameo appearence? Did Nintendo or Capcom do it? Why? Well, I am sure this has kept you entertained for at least a minute. I hope you like what I have found. (Even though I am sure most Viewtiful Joe players have seen this before, but were too lazy to post about it. lol.)

Wow, nice find! I still have the game and the case and that never caught my eye.

[MetalSilver]

Wow lol good job finding that XD

R.O.B. seems to be appearing in like everything lately. Is it just me or is Nintendo trying to get some use and make it look like they didn't screw up so bad when they first introduced him back in the NES days. lol

Screw up? Are you not aware that R.O.B. saved video games? When Atari started releasing their really crappy games, they made the Game market crash. Most stores would not carry video games, nor would they carry consoles. But then, Newcomer Nintendo found a way to sell their new console. The started a bundle. The sold a robot with their Nintendo Entertainment system. This Robot was called R.O.B. People bought the NES for the Robot, and soon found that the Robot was useless, and games like Super Mario Brothers and Duck Hunt were much more fun. Now I know what you are thinking. R.O.B. didn't save video games, what about Sony and Microsoft? Well, if you think about it, Sony made their Playstation because of Nintendo betraying them. Microsoft saw Sony's and Nintendo's success, and wanted into the money. So if you think about it, niether of those companies would exist today without R.O.B. either. So don't insult R.O.B. He is a hero to us all!
