Why do I want this robot?

Listen I know it's a kids toy, but look at his adorable little face.  He's got a monitor for a head!  Technology has gotten to the point of where you can buy a robot with a working monitor in his face for 10 bucks!  I wonder if he can be hacked.

What is it with you and cheap ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- from Walmart?

Is it your birthday soon?
If I had only one wish, it would be for three more wishes.

I am not completely sure about that kiddy robot, but if I ever got a robot I would want one that could clean the house for me because cleaning is evil though necessary.
Life is great. It's full of surprises!

If your interesting in a robot that can be programmed but has personality and other cool features and a SDK to make stuff I would recommend Cozmo.

You can play games with it and let it do it's thing but also with the SDK you can make it speak and also use it as a webcam viewer as you drive around it's well worth checking out the video.

Yeah, I'll bet Nin Nin has some purpose in mind for a robot.

Hack into a modern day version of the Nintendo R.O.B.? And just ignore it when it watches you sleep?
