Robo NO.1 is an enemy in the Game Boy version of Donkey Kong. It resembles a knight, although the name indicates it is also robotic.

History[edit]

Donkey Kong (Game Boy)[edit]

Only one Robo NO.1 appears in the game, encountered in Stage 9-6 of the Tower. The enemy displays the same behavior as Aqua Man, Miira, Penpen, and Golem, simply walking back and forth on a platform and turning around at the margins, causing Mario to lose a life if touched from the sides. Robo NO.1 can be stood on and also picked up and thrown, like most other enemies. Robo NO.1 cannot be defeated, since there are no other enemies or projectiles to use against it (besides an undefeatable Gyātoru).

Super Mario Kodansha manga[edit]

In the Super Mario Kodansha manga, a Robo NO.1 appears in chapter 2 of Super Mario: Donkey Kong 2. It is seen with the other enemies building the Tower and attacking Mario and friends until Monchee interveens.

Security robot that walks briskly

He looks like Miira (p. 214) and Aqua Man (p. 36), but this guy is a robot. One appears only on the face of Tower 9-6. It's all right as long as you don't touch it from the side.
