So now that everyone's favorite Robotic Operating Buddy is a driver in Mario Kart DS, does anyone think we'll see him in future Mario titles? Do you want him in future Mario titles?
I hope so... I love R.O.B. and I'd love to see him stick his adorable robotic head into the next Mario Party or Kart or Sports. He's a helluva lot cooler than Daisy, Waluigi or Bowser Jr., that's for sure, and since I doubt Nintendo will make R.O.B. 2.0 for the Wii, I want him to live on in gaming somehow. I'm very curious as to what kind of roles the little robot will have in the future (in Mario and non-Mario games).
On the flip side though, I can see how some would see him as not "really" a Mario character. He started as a peripheral for the NES, he's made cameos in F-Zero GX and the box art of Viewtiful Joe. Anybody not want to see him in more Mario games?
