Does this remind anyone of an old NES friend?

I saw these at CES and got a follow up email/code I figured I'd share. I know it's no R.O.B. but it made me think of him

Expensive but kinda neat...

Kind of reminds me of the Hailfire droid from Star Wars.

It DOES look like a Hailfire Droid from Star Wars.

Doesn't really remind me of ROB though.

From cruising around the website I don't get a clear sense of what this thing does. Does it play games for you? Are they video games? I don't get it...

I think he means in concept, not physical appearance.

I was thinking the same thing. I did find a video on there, though, showing them in action. Looks like a neat little toy that I'm sure I fould have loved to have if it came out when I was in Jr. High.

I did mean concept - plastic robot interacting with TV. It's a weird little toy.
