Crabfu strikes again with Tortoise RC bot
While they may be lacking in technical prowess, Crabfu bots never are lacking in charm, and this here remote controlled Tortoise bot charmed our very pants off. Video is after to the break, but be sure to be on your guard for Tortoise bot's war of attrition with an indifferent kitty -- you may just end up trouserless, and we can't be held responsible. Hrm, that didn't come out right.

Aw, it IS adorable. And so sad when it flips over and can't get up....
But what is it with the war of turtles vs. cats anyway?

I can't believe I just wasted 4 minutes of my life watching that.

I can't believe I just wasted 4 seconds reading your post
grjohnston @ Jun 22nd 2008 12:38AM
No, I think you meant it to come out just as it did. Why that was how you wanted it, however, is unfathomable.
A.C.E.R. @ Jun 22nd 2008 12:52AM

You failed the test

I'd certainly echo what other have said about being able to setup a routine. I HATE having go back to the menu and pick my next exersise.
And in the mini games section... you have to press teh 'A' button 4X to just try that game again. Very frustrating expecially when you're playing a game that you don't need a wii-mote for and you want to try over and over again (like ski jump). It would have been great if they parked an 'A' button on the backside (maybe right of the power?) so you could just kick it...
Also be really cool when other games start using the balance board. Anybody else think Monkey Ball would be really fun with the board?? :)

Smart cat, it knew it's some dumb human tricks.
Erik @ Jun 22nd 2008 4:15AM
The POV shot with him rotating the sticks makes my head hurt. I am used to flying RC planes and that would result in complete disaster.

Naughty Bunnies @ Jun 22nd 2008 8:41AM
no. and judging by your avatar you're just a little to deep in the world of metroid prime.

Timmy @ Jun 23rd 2008 9:22AM
Are you sure this isn't a new military killing machine?
Strap a little C4 under the "Shell" and send the terrorists a little surprise.

I'm not sure why this is called a "robot" and not a "legged RC vehicle."
