Well since I visited the folks this holiday season I decided to find my old Robotic Operating Buddy (ROB) and take him home with me. Poor ROB however only has 1 hand left and lost his spinning tops of death but either way I fired up the batteries and tied a Wii remote to him and made him play Wii Sports.
Wii sports Results
Tennis - A complete waste of time... alas poor ROB just doesn't know when to swing
Bowling - He can't hold down the B key so we just skipped this entirely
Golf - um no comment
Baseball - He throws the slowest pitches and it's always a fastball. His performance batting is the same as Tennis
Boxing - Odly enough this is the only Wii sports where ROB is decent as he's able to give the low level AIs a rather entertaining fight (you know something is wrong with you when you are yelling at a 1 foot tall robot to throw more punches)
On a side note: I still think ROB could beat up RoboBuddy any day of the weak even with just one hand and no spinning top projectiles.
Edit: For those wondering how I got it to do anything.... well it was a mixture of old camera flashes, flashlight, and a strobelight. Basically I kept throwing lights at it to cause it to seizure.
