R.O.B. is one of the four unlockable characters in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', the others being [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]], [[Dry Bones]], and [[Waluigi]]. This is R.O.B.'s first and only playable appearance in a ''Mario Kart'' game, and he is the game's only playable character that does not return as a playable character in later installments. He can be unlocked by winning gold trophies on either all Nitro or Retro Mirror cups. In the game, he is tied with [[Bowser]] for being the fastest and heaviest racers. R.O.B.'s [[Emblem|symbol]] is the NES D-pad colored purple and is the only emblem in the game not to be in a circle. R.O.B. has two original karts: the [[ROB-BLS]], which resembles R.O.B.'s stand for the game ''Stack-Up'', and the [[ROB-LGS]], which is a kart that appears like "legs" for R.O.B. His karts are fast, heavy, and have stronger handling, but they also offer the weakest drifting among all the other karts. Due to his arms not being very flexible and lacking true hands, R.O.B. is the only character in ''Mario Kart DS'' who does not control his kart with the wheel, despite his karts having one; instead, he seems to do so by moving his arms, like the real | R.O.B. is one of the four unlockable characters in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', the others being [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]], [[Dry Bones]], and [[Waluigi]].

In non-international | In non-international release, R.O.B. is named '''HVC-012''', the model number for the Japanese version of R.O.B., and also colored after his Japanese model. His karts have also different colors in the Japanese version. Also, the staff ghost data for [[Desert Hills]] and [[Rainbow Road]] feature the Japanese R.O.B. and vehicles, regardless of the version of the game the player has. | ||
