Title: Mario Kart DS Secrets (Spoliers)
Post by: The Big Boo on November 19, 2005, 04:32:41 PM
I recently heard that in Mario Kart DS, you could unlock somebody named Rob. Is this the old NES perehpiral, R.O.B. the robot, or did I hear wrong and is it actually a Bob-omb, or something like that?

Oh woah. Why R.O.B., and not someone like... uh...

*Thinks*

...Well, why R.O.B., I wonder?

R.O.B is apparently the fastest guy or something I heard.

You are the winner!!

I've almost unlocked all the characters, but so far have no R.O.B. Also the characters that I have unlocked are:
Waluigi
Daisy
Dry Bones

Wow, size one font sure is small.

Woah! That's real surprising! How many characters are there total?
Title: Re: Mario Kart DS Secrets (Spoliers)

I believe there is about 14 characters total, and there should be about 4, or 5 secret characters.

There are 4 unlockable characters. I've gotten them all, and I'm fairly sure that I've unlocked everything in the game.

Are you sure R.O.B. is the fastest? I think Bowser in his alternate vehicle is just as fast.

How many of you have gotten rankings of at least one star on all the missions in Mission Mode so far, besides me?


But here is my main question: WHO EXACTLY IS R.O.B.? What sort of "NES peripheral" was he?

i don't know too much about him, because i don't use him a lot..

R.O.B is a NES perephrial which was useable with only two games. I don't know exactly how he was used, i think his eyes registered certain flashes on the TV screen and moved his hands to use a controller, or something... He's pretty fast, but definetly not the fastest, especially when you unlock all karts for all characters. I, personally, use Luigi the most...

To answer your question, smfan, i've completed everything. triple-star the missions, triple-star the GPs, beat all the staff ghosts.

Rob is faster than Bowser. Basically because he's metal and metal is heavy.

The unlockable characters are

Daisy
Dry Bones
Waluigi
R.O.B.

I want this game so bad. I even went to the wikipedia page for spoilers.

Then buy it.

It's just not that easy. I have the money and DESPERATELY want to buy it. But my mom said "No. Wait until Christmas so that you don't get a game someone's already got you." Like anyone in my family thinks video games are good for me anyway.

I think the R. O. B. we are speaking of is on one of the mini games in Wario ware mega microgame$ (GBA)

R.O.B. is awesome, dude I can't wait to go to college and take some video game making classes. First thing I do once I find out how to make 3D models is make a hack of MKDS. I'm gonna make koopa drivers and make birdo and even add sonic characters.

I hope it is the one from StarFox 64 .....even though I don't have the game either. :/

It looks pretty much the same as this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:ROB_nes.jpg), but the stand he's on isn't there; he's made so that he will be part of the kart, rather than drive it. The thing at the bottom of the picture resembles one of his karts.

I like his LGS kart better, though. It just looks funny.

It's a little disturbing to se Bowser in it though...
