Chibi-Robo

Nintendo brought this little hero onto the scene a little later in the lifespan of the GameCube and I gave it a go. I was pretty pleased with the puzzle solving nature and running around as a pint sized robot in a huge house. It was a little tedious for the first half of the game having to plug into the wall to recharge constantly, meaning I had to drop what I was doing to go find a power outlet. As you progress you acquire better batteries that last longer per charge which you'll be very grateful for. The main story is pretty unique. The father and mother are having marital issues and throughout your daily cleaning you do things to bring the family closer together until it's a happy family again. There is also a little girl that you help find stuff for and a ton of other smaller chores you have to do for toys, plants and a host of other characters. It had it's flaws and it dragged a few times but for the most part you'll have fun with it. Utilize that backwards compatibility with your Wii and rent it. You might find this to be another hidden gem on the GameCube.
