Title: Wowwee 8000 RoboRemote software
Post by: loumsc on October 02, 2016, 08:58:52 PM
Can anyone provide this software and/or provide a link where I might find it?
I have searched Google and Bing and cannot find it. I would like to find it before it disappears completely.

Thanx,
Lou

I entered "WowWee 8000 Roboremote" and got a bunch of stuff. There is even a physical remote on Amazon unless I'm reading something wrong. Below is just one of my search results.

That sounds pretty cool that there is a single device out there that will support Rex the Dog and the RoboReptile and the Raptor and all those other chunky huuuge robots. Good luck with your search!

I found this on www.manualshelf.com › ... › Baby Accessories › WowWee Roboremote 8000

Apparently you have to download this software from the internet. Hopefully that link will work. I'm sorry my screenreader took away the code that turns the link text into an actual link. I think you can still just put the text into your web browser and still be able to use it. Good luck!

Thanx for the response. This link is for the manual only which I have. I am trying to locate the software which is no longer available on the Wowwee site.

Well then! That stinks. I don't know where else to look if WowWee has removed it from their site. I'm really sorry I couldn't help. I hope you find it.
