Yes, that's Nintendo's R.O.B. One of the most useless peripherals of the original NES, he's redeemed himself as a playable character in Mario Kart DS. At least I think he redeemed himself.
Not sure why I drew this, but I did. Voila.
EDIT: Fixed a color. Now I'm going to go to bed. X3
Heh! Well, if not in actual form, he's shown up in a few games as a cameo too.
R.O.B. was a cute idea in concept, but the support was very, VERY slim. Only two games were made that supposedly support R.O.B., one normally included with it (Gyromite)...and THAT game doesn't even really need him! O.o
Folks are usually trying to get Gyromite not because it's a good game, but because the game is a standard Japanese Famicom game connected to a special converter! With this converter in hand, it could allow folks to play Japanese Famicom games on their own Nintendo systems! X3
Heh! R.O.B. seems to have a number of cameos out there. I recall seeing him in Gamecube's Viewtiful Joe, around the beginning of the last stage in the background.
There was, but he certainly didn't look like that. Although one of the bosses--Spyborg, they call it here--is said to be based on a R.O.B. prototype. Perhaps that's why it kept saying "I must be complete" and "Where is the creator?"
I gots no life to be looking all this stuff up online. X3

By the by, R.O.B. made a cameo in F-Zero GX on the GameCube. He's a giant robot thing in Famicom colors outside one of the tracks.
