Chibi Robo Date gets Unplugged

Despite a few US retailers dropping Chibi Robo: Park Patrol from their releases lists, the game has been delayed by a few weeks as confirmed by Nintendo.

Originally scheduled to appear in stores on September 24, the game has been pushed back until October 2. Park Patrol is based on the original characters introduced in the GameCube title.

Just in case you need a refresher course, here’s a direct quote from Nintendo’s E3 2007 fact-sheet. “A pollution epidemic is transforming the local park into a contaminated wasteland. It’s up to Chibi-Robo to return the park to its former glory and defeat Sergeant Smogglor, champion of all things toxic and gross. With his trusty squirter and boom box in hand, Chibi must raise flowers, defeat noxious Smoglings and save the world.”
