Title: Chibi-Robo Gamecube
Post by: BLUEVOODU on January 02, 2026, 01:02:03 PM
Man... another title that's hard to believe that made it to the retro section.  This game made it to the Nintendo Switch Online Gamecube catalog.   This certainly brought back many memories... and I probably haven't played this game since... mid 2000's.  Chibi-Robo was released June 23, 2005 and was a fairly popular title. Man - Time has flown - I keep saying this a lot.

In this game, you are a cute robot that has to do many tasks throughout the house.  It's a basic platformer.  I remember it being a pretty fun game.   Do you remember this game?   If so, what do you remember and what did you like/dislike?

I remember this game. I am sorry to say that it never appealed to me. I have never played it. I don't remember if it was the graphics or the concept. It just didn't grab my attention back then.

Interesting - Is this one you own and are looking to try it out again?

I know I don't own it. It still does not appeal to me. The character design just doesn't grab me. Neither does the game itself. And the price that game is going for chokes my wallet just thinking about it. Maybe back then if it was a cheap pick-up I might have tried it. But with an average price on eBay of $200, .........nope

Man... for $200... I might be tempted to sell mine.   I'm looking at this left and right across my collection.   This is partly why I created the paring topic post:\

It's funny ... I haven't heard the title "Chibi-Robo" in forever... it's cool they brought it back to the Nintendo Switch... at least giving some of these titles more life.
