If you’re a subscriber to Nintendo Switch Online and its expansion pack, you’ll want to keep your eyes peeled on August 21st. Why is that? Because another “Nintendo Classic” will drop on the service, and the game that will arrive is Chibi-Robo! For those who don’t remember this character, it was a “cult classic” title that featured an adorable little robot that was meant to help out a family, and others of its kind on Nintendo platforms and beyond. The unique look of the character, mixed with the gameplay, made it stand out from others of its kind.
Now the game will be able to be played in full on Nintendo Switch Online. Here’s the trailer for its arrival and its official synopsis:
“Chibi-Robo is a four-inch-tall robot who’s arrived at the Sanderson house with the goal of helping the family get the most out of life and find happiness. Day or night, he’ll help however he can, whether that’s by cleaning or looking for lost items. In this chibi action-adventure title originally released for the Nintendo GameCube™ system in 2006, you’ll aim for the top of the Chibi-Rankings by gathering Happy Points and Moolah (aka money)! It’s rumored that Chibi-Robo will become Super Chibi-Robo if he reaches the top of the rankings…but between a daughter who only speaks in the language of frogs and toys that come alive when humans aren’t around, Chibi-Robo has his work cut out for him in the mystery-packed Sanderson house!”
