When I run out of video ideas, I go back to talking about my favorite obscure Nintendo game. Just how it goes.

Also, thank you for watching my video! I hope you enjoyed hearing about the goofy little robot game :)
Buy animal well instead,it’s like halo 2 meets halo 3
It’s a mattress?sorry don’t know how to read
Enjoying Hades 2? I assume you got it in EA anyways, given your video on the first game. Still crazy there's a sequel.
If they remake this game, it will totally sell well as It Takes Two basically have the same premise and it was a success
I know you said best zzzs imaginable but I definitely heard best diseases imaginable . . . scary . . .
quite literally watching this at 3:25 AM
i always dislike when people hate on media aimed at kids for "heavy topics" when.. kids go through these things? kids witness marital issues, witness money struggles? they NEED that representation. they NEED that to feel seen and to help cope with everything. it's so incredibly important.
Someone in a blue shirt and glasses right now is still screaming at Zip Lash and throwing it in the toilet
I can still hear him now
What's worse is he lives in Ohio
HOLY SHIT IS THAT SCOTT THE WOZ
And fighting it after it turned into the Anti-Gex
“This game blows!”
My favorite part about that clip is that you can see the splash from the toilet hit Scott's face and he just has to pretend it didn't 💀
Scott the Woz:
People just don't "get" Chibi-Robo... WHAT'S THERE TO GET? HE'S A TINY ROBOT!
I recommend Moon: Remix RPG Adventure on Switch as a successor to Chibi Robo because Kenichi Nishi worked on it, who is Chibi Robo's original creator.
I stole a Nintendo power magazine from the local Barnes and Noble, because I was a dumb kid. I took it home and for months was plagued with paranoia that my mom would find it, so I only opened it up at night to avoid detection. Within this Nintendo power was a multi-page feature on chibi robo. Somehow my brain's wires have remained so crossed that as soon as I saw this pop up on my subscription feed I was immediately terrified in that same childlike way just by seeing chibi robo again, so thank you for that.
PTSD is fun
Do you remember which issue of the magazine it was? I’m interested
Does the Barnes and Noble still exist? If you still have the magazine, you should attempt to return it and give whoever is currently working there a sincere apology. See their reaction.
Damn you Baby Albert-ed yourself
nintendo Ninja's are here, RUN!!!
I think that something really interesting you touched lightly on is that, in some ways, Chibi Robo is a game about spending your energy helping people and finding yourself rewarded for doing it. It's about showing up for people and making a difference while still making sure to take care of yourself. It seems like a lovely game and a lesson certainly worth being in a kid's game.
The early-mid 2000's really had weirdly a lot of games where you're just a really little guy doing things in a big world.
- Pikmin 1 and 2
- Katamari
- Chibi Robo
There's probably more but those few were arguably the most mainstream.
Custom Robo on the GameCube was also about small characters, in the form of battle robots that people control. Back then, when I played the game for the first time, I had no idea that the first in the series was on the N64!
Grew up this game. Dad character sounds like he says Danger! Chibi robo is so cute and what other kids game is about saving a marriage!!
my brain also interprets the Dad's yell as "DANGEROUS"

The name "Chibi-Robo" hurts Nintendo fans like that of Golden Sun, Wario Land and Rhythm Heaven.
Scott's biggest nightmare
Thanks for contributing to my sleep deprivation
You can make up that sleep on a new HELIX MATTRESS
It’s 2:30 am where I live. What am I doing?
Watching a yakkocmn video, of course. It’s never too late for that!
Update: i fell asleep in English class
@@FENUSfenux sleeping at school so you can stay up late is a solid strat
You missed a perfect opportunity to drop a "My uncle works at Nintendo and my system is special".
I found about Chibi-Robo through SSF2. He’s one of those characters who I don’t know much about but his design even in a fan game shows how interesting his is. I love how music ties into his actions.
His side special is the toothbrush and I was really happy when I found out how to (or realized I could) make the entire song play without him brushing all the way into the blast zone.

The Chibi-Robo game on DS the west never got has a really high quality fan translation, where the subtitle is "Clean Sweep".
It's a really fantastic game, which I wish came out here in the west.
I'm a simple man. I see yakkocmn notification, I drop everything and watch
Chibi Robo is one of those childhood games that I'll always fondly remember for introducing me to the concept of a video game with an impactful story. Definitely deserves another entry akin to the first. Love the video!
Very well said, and I feel the same way too! Nowadays, it is quite expensive.
It got one. The third game is a direct sequel to the first with Jenny as a poor single mother. It never got released in the west but there's a good fan translation calling it Chibi-Robo: Clean Sweep. Highly recommend it.
@@DamatteKudasai I want to play that game too but playing it through any device other than the Nintendo DS would probably not feel so great. Maybe it can be installed into a flash cartridge.
@@big-backjack3564 I played it on my 3DS and DSi and aside from the backyard having a bit of slowdown it ran pretty dang good
@@big-backjack3564 I recommend Moon: Remix RPG Adventure on Switch as a successor to Chibi Robo because Kenichi Nishi worked on it, who is Chibi Robo's original creator.
Why did i unironically get emotional during some of the story moments he showed. Like idk, ig something about them really spoke to me, and I'm super impressed given how goofy the characters look.
Awesome break down for a game and character that I never thought I'd come to deeply appreciate, thank you Yakko, always a pleasure when you upload
Oh my god, i can't believe funky phil just fucking died
A family that has a robot older son dead in the basement was not in my expctations for this video, but i love him now
just wait till you hear the music for the flashback
wack
Lovesick mummy, tsunedere pirate captain, greaser egg toy, heroin addict teddy bear, groovy flower pot, aging elder toy rex, philosophic action figure, evil birds, nefarious bipedal rat warriors, the list goes on for fun wacky characters! I still have my GameCube Nd the disk lol
Obligatory "if you like Chibi Robo you should play moon, and Chulip, and L.O.L, and..."

@@retrauk dog you're venturing into games even I haven't heard of
Keep going
@@Fuhiro3 That's about all I got that's related to stuff like Chibi Robo and moon. Love-de-Lic and it's later offshoots just... Made some really neat games. Almost none of which are available on modern platforms. I think moon is the only one that actually has a port.
@@retrauk And Doshin the Giant just for fun
Hearing about Chibi Robo always makes me sad. The first game was so full of heart and well written and I’m glad that’s explored here since the actual fate of the series (being doomed to fail and turned into a soulless platformer before being abandoned) is far too well known. Especially with how many indie studios are being killed off by bigger companies and how many of said companies expressed disinterest in experimentation, it shows that it doesn’t matter how good something is, how loved it is, even how well it sells-if it isn’t an entry in a best selling series, it means nothing to the industry.
Indie games are absolutely carrying the gaming landscape, but I don’t know how long that’ll last given their treatment and rising costs of both development and general living conditions. We need games like Chibi Robo again :(
Chibi Robo was made by Skip, a company that works for Nintendo. Chibi Robo is Skips mascot, problem is Skip is dead.
The good news is that the creator of Chibi Robo Kenichi Nishi made Moon: Remix RPG Adventure on Switch.
Ironpinapple and Yakko's friendship is genuinely so heart warming, I love seeing them work on stuff together < 3
The odds that yakko puts out a video on Chibi-Robo the day after I was talking to my mate about it and reminiscing and wishing there was more like the original or, at the very least, Park Patrol, is insane. Nice job once again funny man inside my computer.
Haha yeah, I can relate! I was playing Chibi Robo just two days ago, I finished introducing Funky Phil to his kids XD
I loved playing Chibi-Robo as a kid and the current state of the series or lack thereof makes me the big sad, thank you for brining attention to this masterpiece!
I remember receiving/buying chibi robo as a child, playing it for like an hour, being so confused on how to proceed I got frustrated, and giving up. Thankfully I eventually went back to it and beat it down the line, because it easily sits as one of my favorite videogame experiences even now, glad to see it's still getting some love :^)
Other than The Legend of Zelda, Chibi Robo was my first open-world game!
@@big-backjack3564 when I was real small like six I was very dumb an just could not play-through games like this well an I also had gotten cut off from Chibi Robo for awhile since my mommy did not like the creepy dangerous magic using fella in the basement
@@senritsujumpsuit6021 bro I have no idea why (well maybe it was some of the slightly uncanny animations) he gave me the mild willies, but as much as I loved that game, it stressed me out so much more than I can explain (the little bug enemy things didn't help tho lmao)
@@senritsujumpsuit6021 I recommend Moon: Remix RPG Adventure on Switch as a successor to Chibi Robo because Kenichi Nishi worked on it, who is Chibi Robo's original creator.
We're gaming with this one
At this point, _"Nintendo's Forgotten Masterpiece"_ has to be the name of at least five different videos on this site, no?
*CHIBI-ROBO MENTIONED, RAAAAHHHHH!* I remember playing this game randomly on the family's gamecube and this game was an amazing experience.
My eyes got watery Wtffffff
CHIBI ROBO?! Oh this is a treat for me specifically I FUCKING LOVE CHIBI ROBO. Chibi robo is one of my favourite games of all time, God this makes me hope you also do a Clean Sweep/Park Patrol video too those are also great Chibi Robo games and I would love to see your thoughts on them tbh
i heard there's an English translation patch for Clean Sweep so i might check it out at some point
@@yakkocmnyeah that’s how I played it. If you end up playing it I would recommend a capture card to a 3ds specifically as it plays a lot better on there (or you can use the control stick patch if you don’t wanna bother). The translation is pretty good too, the only issue with it is in Captain Iberico’s (the pig cop’s) story line. I feel like there’s a pun that’s not being translated well as Telly keeps calling him “Captain Scared” and it just sounds like there’s meant to be some play on words that’s not translating well, but the rest of the translation is great tbh I would really recommend it
CHIBI-ROBO CONTENT???? WHAAAAAT? I swear you get more and more cultured with every video I watch of you.
A chibi robo video in 2024 ? Dreams DO come true
I recommend Moon: Remix RPG Adventure on Switch as a successor to Chibi Robo because Kenichi Nishi worked on it, who is Chibi Robo's original creator.
NEW YAKKO VIDEO? FOR ME? AND NO ONE ELSE?
I love HDMI ports and putting HDMI ports on every electronic I own. Good work as always!
This really makes me want a Chulip video. Not the exact same vibe but a lot of similarities in mature storytelling and unique gameplay.
I might also have to find a gamecube with a HDMI port after watching this! I knew of Chibi-Robo but didn't know it was this level of endearing, you did a wonderful job of sharing what makes it special... Thanks for another great video :)
iron pineapple jump scare
I’m adding “easy on the Baja blast buddy, it’s a school night” to my lexicon
I really hope this video gets more views Chibi Robo Clean sweep is so near and dear to my heart
Chibi Robo is in the same camp as Bayonetta, in that Namco technically owns the rights to the series, but Nintendo has published and even developed the entire series. It was never a big seller, so Nintendo doesn't feel the need to work with Namco on future projects.
Wow. 39:40 That guy predicted the future of gaming as a whole, man.
I had the pleasure of talking with Hirofumi Taniguchi (the sound designer and composer for Chibi-Robo!) and got to chat about how this game holds a special place in my heart ever since I got it at a Gamestop at like age 8. He also agrees that this entry is his favorite, though he did also work for composing Chibi-Robo Photo Finder as well (the others were composed by different people.)
Also the voice lines for Sarge are most likely sampled from a Monty Python movie "The Meaning of Life". I asked him about it, he didn't mention it directly, but said that they'd often "imitate" actors' voices themselves. - Though I did my own research and edited the movie, sure enough both Sarge and the Free Rangers were chopped up, pitched differently and sped up to get the distinct sound. (Most likely other characters' voices were the same, after watching the movie in full I heard at least 2 other instances of people who likely had their voice sampled and used in Chibi-Robo as well.)
Damn your first Chibi robo review was 7 years ago. Time really does hit hard. Love your videos and thank you for showing me more reasons to appreciate what we have.
Always a treat when you upload. It really sucks how Nintendo gatekeeps their old games, it just means younger people (me) miss out on gems like this, so thanks for the video.
I did not expect the iron pineapple voice over
Hey Yakko, you probs won't read this but since this video released I've been waking up almost every day thinking: Man, I miss watching Yakko, I miss feeling as hyped about video games as Yakko made me feel. I been watching you since the league days. Still love your videos. Thanks for making such good content, thanks for everything you've made. I miss the discord a little. I'll be rewatching your older videos now, thanks man.
10:31 - I'm glad to see someone else remembers Pokémon Channel. Always love to hear the Shop 'N Squirtle theme.
Here's my comment for the Algorithm, keep up the great work Yakko!
2:40 “This blows!”
*throwing into toilet sounds
Damn bro, I was not ready for this feels train but I sure am glad to have gone on the ride. That mix of whimsy with real life trauma really is one of the best ways to explore hard hitting themes without just...scarring your audience. That shit is good storytelling. We need a lot more of that.

The JP only game has a full english fan translation and it is also really good and worth checking out for anyone who likes the original
This video fills me with child-like wonder
Anytime persona music is in the background you know it’s going to be a good video
I remember back in the day I caught wind of this game and was like really excited for it. I finally bought the thing, loved it, completed it and then continued to play every couple of years. I love this game so much it's in my top 10 of my favorite games of all time.
43:32 I absolutely love it 😁👍👍
I love Chibi Robo. I still remember playing it on one of those TVs in (I think) Walmart, having to look up a full 90 degrees, and being completely enamored by the game and asking my mom to get it. I think it was the music effects of moving around that did it for me. Such fond memories
Before you made the comparison between Persona I was like "wait, does he play only Persona music on purpose, because the games are so similar, and have the same strengths that make'em really really good games?" Cuz... It would be wild.
Chibi-Robo is my spirit animal, and I adore that little amiibo. I love the little guy so much; this game and the sequel on the DS had such a huge impact on me as a kid. Beautiful stuff, and I yearn so hard for this game to come back in some form.
Yakko, what the Funk.
I went from "Oh, cool. A New yakko video to check out", to crying about a lego truck and some dancing flowers from a game i heard in passing once over 7 years ago. 🙃
Chibi Robo Park Patrol was my absolute favorite growing up and I miss it every time I think about booting my DS up. I got it originally as a hand-me-down from my older brother but I gave it back to him when he moved out and im incredibly tempted to see if i can find another copy for my personal collection. Whats there not to love about being a little guy taking care of some flowers and befriending other toys?
Getting Raz to read as Henry Jenkins and Kurt Squire was an ethereal experience thank you
Wow when you explained that whole part about the dad's backstory I legit cried :( This game cuts deep for people whose parents got divorced
I remember exactly how i found out about chibi-robo, was a kid shopping with my mom and grandma at k-mart and they had one of those gamecube demo stands with the tv in the top of it and chibi-robo was on it as a demo. I played that thing the entire time they were shopping and they had to drag me away from it to get me to go home.
funny and cute Nintendo game is about divorce and the family struggles, Cowabummer.
I grew up playing Chibi-robo and was obsessed. this game and Sonic Adventure 2 took all of muy childhood gaming time. somehow the best two games with the wrost cameras and platformings lol, the copter segments in this game are literally painful,
I subscribed to your channel initially off of the old Chibi-robo video since I've always been a big fan of the games and it was great to see you revisit it! I think this is by far the best analysis of this game I've seen yet and perfectly encapsulates why I love this game so much
I love how you can make me want to play every game you talk about. So much passion in what you do!
Your dedication to this video of one of my favorite games brings me to tears
I will never forgive Nintendo for what they did to my son. Literally set him on fire on Twitter which was the last mention of him outside of a Smash spirit.
Love you Chibi-Robo. Will never forget you.
As someone who is Very Normal about robots as a concept, Chibi Robo has been on my radar for a bit. It just seemed so silly and the robot designs are absolutely amazing, but now knowing just how good the games story is and its use of the concept of humanity outside of flesh when I only really knew about the cleaning and charging mechanics, I’m genuinely tempted to give it a shot. Thank you for giving me insight into just how awesome this game can be, I don’t think I ever would’ve actually thought to try it out myself.
I have such vidid memories of this game, I still own the copy with the sticker on it all these years later. It's delightful to know that this game is still being talked about. Love the videos!
Yeah I still have my original copy but I am missing the instruction booklet :(
Such a great video! Thank you making these Yakko:)
The thing that really stuck with me in this game is the fact that your basically a stranger thrown into this family's life as you see them struggle and have family issues. I didnt really see in any games back then.
I’m so glad someone else knows about the 29 memories of the olden days theme, it’s so emotional
Honestly, it's kind of sad to see that some of the criticism was "well, it looks adorable, but the story is too mature for a kid's game." It feels like it's condemning both the artistic value of games *and* the intelligence of kids. I was a teen when I played this game, back when it was relatively new. I loved it then, and it stuck in my memory as a fantastic adventure with moments that were brutally real for the game about an adorable house cleaning bot with psychedelic living toy friends.
There are a *lot* of Gamecube games that went all sorts of wild and weird places, which don't really get covered today and likely wouldn't be brought into the modern era, but deserve attention nonetheless. Thank you for bringing this one back into memory.
the reason I adore watching old shows from overseas an some movies more recent over there as well do what the west fears so often
Mirai is a film where the director based the main little children characters off his own kids an the whole films so real as heck
"When watching this film I know how much you love our kids" is the best thing to hear from your wife
@@senritsujumpsuit6021 Hell, the 90's "kids" movies were all about that stuff too. Like you watch "Brave little Toaster" and realizes it pulls zero punches.
@@NEEDbacon Brave Story is a film where for awhile on top of the MC child dealing with his dad divorcing mom the kids friend does a villian journey to resurrect his little sister who was stabbed to death in there house ends up also dying in the MCs arms they both revive but still da fuk 2000s films sometimes man :/
Another great yakkocmn video on games I have in the back of my head that I was considering playing! Thanks, Yakko!
thank you for giving light to this obscure little game. I really get your love for it and this might have been the best video i have seen from you, the pacing and explanation of what made it so special really shined through throughout the whole video :)
When you said "the most emotionally impact fully side story" and Dinah's theme started playing I was like, oh yeah this guy knows his stuff.
I always love your videos, but Chibi Robo was a big part of my childhood! I really just happened upon it one day in a gamestop when I was a kid, and just by chance my dad bought it for me. I mean the stars really aligned for me to get this game because the cashier actually never put the disc in the box, so we had to make a whole trip back to get the actual game lol. That's the way this game got into my hands and has left a lasting impact on me. I need to dust off my gamecube and replay it soon! Excellent video as always Yakko!
OK Awesome! So this game actually does exist and wasn't just a weird fever dream I had as a child!
I’m glad you went over one of the most charming yet forgotten Nintendo franchises. I first discovered Chibi Robo a few years back and was fortunate to get a GC copy at GameStop. I fell in love with this game immediately. I enjoy niche games similar to this game. Eventually i tried out Chibi-Robo Clean Sweep (english fan translation of Okaeri!) on the DS and it was fantastic, it exceeded my expectations!! It’s unfortunate that Chibi Robo was destined to die in the 3DS era. I doubt a revival could happen in the future. I’ll continue to play through Chibi-Robo GC game and the DS sequel again and again.
The early section about Chibi-robo's sound design reminds me of my own experience with the game Abe's Oddysee. While i never beat the game, and have issues with some of it's gameplay elements, one thing that stood out to me about the game and still lives rent free in my head is the sound effects and noises the various characters and their interactions with the environment make. As such i would recommend Yakko try out this game just for that experience alone and it isn't even necessary to beat the game to get it. Just playing around for a few hours is more than enough. And to fellow Abe's Oddysee enjoyers i say: Heddo.
Wow, this game was way ahead of it's time
Absolutely fell in love with Chibi-Robo when I first played it. As a kid, all the adult themes flew way over my head. Was like nothing I played before and I remember missing hours of sleep over it. Recently replayed it and wow yeah I didn't realize how bad the family situation was but was still so much fun and remembered whole game segments somehow. Would love for this guy to make a comeback one day.
Chibi Robo was made by Skip, a company that works for Nintendo. Chibi Robo is Skips mascot, problem is Skip is dead.
The good news is that the creator of Chibi Robo Kenichi Nishi made Moon: Remix RPG Adventure on Switch.
I know there’s been a lot of speculation regarding how the second half of 2024 will look for Nintendo since the Switch successor was seemingly delayed internally. A lot of people think Nintendo will rely on more ports and remasters to pad out the release calendar until the next console. It would be so awesome to get a Chibi Robo port for Switch. Definitely looking forward to the June direct and keeping my fingers crossed!
I love how the third game shows that the Dad ended up solving the energy crisis by working for Citrisoft and coming up with house generators that burn trash and convert it into electricity.
It's my IP to sit down. Do nothing with
I recommend Moon: Remix RPG Adventure on Switch as a successor to Chibi Robo because Kenichi Nishi worked on it, who is Chibi Robo's original creator.
I’ve never rewatched a sponser segment but this one was low key so funny 😂
park patrol was one of my favorite games as a kid. i beat the game on all 3 save files
Incredible video on one of my favorite games ever c: And don't worry about Chibi-Robo! falling into obscurity, there's a thriving community and we also got the game into SGDQ this year! It'll be on the big stage next month!
ive only ever seen this character in super smash flash up until now
Only Yamgo can sell me on Chibi Robo in a single video after me brushing it off as just some nintendo shovelware game for so many years.
it is a good day when there's a new yakkocmn video
You did a fantastic job of capturing so much of what I have always loved about this game
Oh my stars, thank you for talking about this game Yakko! Hearing anyone mention Chibi Robo in this day and age feels so nostalgic to me. It was such an iconic and influential piece of my childhood, I truly wish it had a better chance at success. There's nothing more charming than an itty bitty robot helping ease a family's woes, thru little actions that eventually make a big impact. I can think of no other game with this level of creativity, I would love to see a full remake of it one day!!!
I miss the 90s and early 2000s era
Gaming was so much better and fun back then imo
Here in South America game cube games were HELLA expensive and rare. I always wanted to play Chibi Robo but I could not only not afford it, but find it. And whats funny is I learned about it thanks to a magazine called Club Nintendo and ever since I havent stopped thinking about it
I too am unable to sleep without a dark figure sitting in the corner of my room stares at me.
How are your videos always so relatable and fun?
Also that Korok plush is so adorable, where did you get it?
I had commented on this video when you first posted it, so I'll just repeat myself! LOL
I have seen others I follow talk about this game, but only very briefly. Barely talk about the story, just the game play.
But seeing your video, going into deeper detail, really got me interested.
Maybe I'll try and grab it someday.
Thanks Yakko.
