In addition to Vib Ribbon, PaRappa, Um Jammer Lammy and.. holy heck how many games has this guy composed music in?.. He also did Sony's (of course Sony's) 1999 bot named AIBO (Eye-boow). TELL ME THAT THEY ARE A LIVING (don't hurt his feelings), EXISTING, PIECE OF ART.
In addition to the AIBO robot dog's cuteness overload, again, the music slaps. Sadly, Masaya was only brought to one model, and not the others. Including this model, the cute one:
But he gave the 7 (the one he worked on) a good sample of his mind.. pun intended. Get it? MIND? Because the 7s run on softwares named MIND?? im not funny.. There are 3 minds, MIND 1 made in 2003, MIND 2 made in 2004, and MIND 3 made in 2005. Do you think there's a mind four? No, becuause Sony put the dog down in 2006.
Onwards, MUSIC!

The next are official software add-ons to sound like the prototypes.

Aibos are amazing bots, I would consider getting a 7 as they are the smartest model made!

Please watch this if your considering getting a companion but can't hold a dog. In a way, aibo, feels.. like it has a real soul.
ive wanted an aibo for soooooo fucking long but at this point 1) im NOT sure how easy itll be to get all the software i want (i cant remember exactly how it works for ers7s) and 2) itll probably need TONS of mechanical servicing which i dont mind but its also scary because 3) they are So fucking expensive.
New friends? New friends!! Both a Mind1 ers-7 and a 1000 from Japan. Neither dog was sold as fully tested so I’m very pleased both work well. The 1000 came with a bunch of little outfits and spare paw pads, it’s obvious he was well loved 🥹
my formal apology for being gone for multiple months. im really gonna try again this time to be active, got some nice stuff to show, can't wait! in the mean time, have some aibo doodles! ✦
