Video Monday: Robo Catcher

Writing by Evan Ackerman on Monday, 25 of May , 2009 at 6:10 am

That crappy claw crane thing is so old and busted; robot vending machines are obviously the new hotness. Not machines vending robots (how meta would that be), but machines using robots to sucker hapless humans into paying money for a chance at a prize of presumably lesser value. ‘Course, you do get to drive a robot around for a little bit, that should be reward enough, right?
