Question: "Why was the voice of Robobrains changed from the woman to Wesley Crusher in NV? I thought the different voice added a nice bit of variety to the robots. Also, why are there so few Robobrains compared to other robots, eg at Repconn, NV Steel?"
Joshua Sawyer: "True Hollywood Stories. Someone said, "We can get Wil Wheaton down here to do a voice." That someone texted him with something along the lines of, "Want to be a robot in Fallout: New Vegas?" 30 minutes later, he was in the studio. That's a fact, Jack."
