The world hates R.O.B.
>slow as fuck in real life
>extremely obscure without smash bros
>had one cameo in mario kart ds, never shows
up anywhere outside of smash again
>games were awful
>gets called a rip off of wall-e despite being older
>at the beginning of subspace, he’s forced to surrender his people to tabuu or face the genocide of his entire race
>tabuu kills R.O.Bs without a second thought, literally using two of them for every subspace bomb he sets off, and randomly sending them to die against characters he knows they can’t beat
>R.O.B has to carry down all of these orders, or else he and the rest of his people will be killed
>finally, when tabuu decides to sacrifice 40 robots in order to destroy the isle of ancients and the rest of his species, R.O.B decides he’s had enough
>tells his people not to kill themselves
>ganondorf pushes a button and they start blowing up the island anyway
>R.O.B decides that he can’t live with the guilt of sending countless of his own people to die, and stays on the island to die
>DK grabs him and drags him off the island anyway
>for the rest of the game, he’s barely in cutscenes, he has no moment of glory, nothing ever happens pertaining to him again
>except at the end
>when tabuu is defeated, every location destroyed by subspace bombs is returned
>the entire smash universe is built again
>except the island where R.O.Bs used to live
>everybody’s home returns except R.O.B’s, because fuck him right?
>surely, snake’s codec aknowledges his hardships
“In Japan, R.O.B is the color of the Japanese famicom!”
>what about palutena’s guidance?
“Hah, R.O.B really isn’t a creative name!”

>he’s got no friends
>he has to constantly live with the guilt of his entire species’ death
>his gameplay is boring and forgettable
>he’s embarrasingly mid tier
>still has no stage
