  • R.O.B. favoring Gyro references the Gyros from Gyromite serving as the basis for R.O.B.'s down special.
  • The stage references R.O.B. being a real-life video game peripheral. The stage also references how fighters are decreased in size relative to their surroundings, so in this environment, the Giant R.O.B. reflects the peripheral's real-life size.
  • The Grab type references the gameplay mechanic of Gyromite where the player uses the R.O.B. peripheral to grab the spinning Gyros.

Trivia

  • R.O.B., Earthbound, and Pikmin are the only series represented by a fighter to use photographs for their spirits.
  • The R.O.B. series is tied with the Duck Hunt series for the fewest spirits of series represented by a fighter, with a total of three each.
    • R.O.B. and Ice Climber are the only series represented by fighters that do not have any primary spirits associated with them, though Final Fantasy also had no primary spirits prior to Sephiroth's release as DLC.
    • R.O.B. is the universe represented by a fighter with the smallest number of spirit battles assigned, with only one. Prior to version 10.1.0, Final Fantasy held this title, having had no spirit battles.
  • The R.O.B. and Wii Fit universes are the only universes whose spirit battles never contain fighters outside of their series.
  • All of the R.O.B universe's spirits use R.O.B.'s international gray color scheme regardless of region, rather than changing to its red and white color scheme in the Japanese version (excluding the alternate artwork for R.O.B.'s fighter spirit).
