New Chibi-Robo Is Like Classic Chibi-Robo

By Spencer . July 2, 2009 . 2:25pm

Fans of Chibi-Robo should enjoy Okaeri! Chibi-Robo! Happy Rich Oosouji. The two games are pretty similar. Players pick up trash, sweep floors, and do chores to keep Jenny and her family happy.

Chibi-Robo Developers Were, At One Time, Planning A FPS

By Spencer . December 8, 2008 . 1:47pm

Skip is one of the most sanguine video game studios around. This company was behind the pleasant, but unreleased in North America, Giftpia and delightful Chibi-Robo. Sure, Chibi-Robo shoots mecha-spiders with an arm cannon, but it’s still hard to imagine…

Captain Rainbow gives a nod to Link

By Spencer . August 28, 2008 . 10:18am

Minmin Island is a home for washed up video game characters waiting for a wish to come true. Link doesn’t fit in here, but Skip has snuck in a reference Legend of Zelda fans should get. See it in the…

By Spencer . April 9, 2008 . 3:28pm

Laugh out loud with Archime DS

By Spencer . March 15, 2008 . 12:30am

Agetec sent an e-mail officially announcing LOL, a localized version of a Skip published game Archime DS. Skip created Chibi-Robo and the cheerful, but woefully lost in translation (read: never been localized) Giftpia. LOL sticks to Skip’s light hearted tone…
