A R.O.B. (which stands for Robotic Operating Buddy) is a peripheral for the Nintendo Entertainment System, Nintendo's first home console. R.O.B. has since featured in a number of Nintendo games as a character, including Mario Kart DS and Super Smash Bros. Brawl, which Captain Olimar is also a character in. In Pikmin, there are a number of treasures related to the device - its "head" is Remembered Old Buddy; and the Gyro Blocks, all found in Hole of Heroes and all part of the Blast from the Past series, are blocks related to the peripheral.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl
In a cutscene of Super Smash Bros. Brawl's Subspace Emissary, Captain Olimar battles a giant R.O.B. with Captain Falcon. Giant R.O.B.s also appear in both characters' games.
