I liked to take things apart so my ROB soon became mounted to a radio-controlled car. He hasn't been seen since.

I LOVED gyromite though and it was also my introduction to the nes and held me over for the LOONG period between when the nes was released and when SMB actually was released in the US.

I disagree though... if you want people to hate gyromite then by all means give them rob to play with... otherwise, playing it with a friend or on an emulator with all four buttons mapped to a single gamepad is the way to go.
