Is Robopon Any Good? | Sun Version Showcase!



My first ever introduction to Robopon was actually through a Jwittz video years ago, claiming it was a Pokemon Knock off. Let’s see if that holds true, or if that’s another example of people pushing that outdated narrative.

  1. I'm not a fan of the 1st Robopon game, but the 2nd game, for the GBA, is much better (in my opinion).

    Also, the Robopon that Doctor Disc gave you is based on the birthday you set for your character.

  2. This game is one of the few examples where I can actually understand people calling it a Pokémon knockoff, cause it really comes off that way, particularly with some of the character sprites.
    I don't necessarily agree, but I can understand it with this specific game.

  4. Robopon was not only the first monster tamer outside of Pokemon I branched out on but the first Japanese import I ever played. My country never released robopon so I landed a Japanese copy at a second hand store and it was the sequal GBA version.

    As a result when I decided to backtrack I stuck to Japanese and imported Robopon Star version. Also if you have a Japanese N64 you can actually buy Robopon 64 and it had a transfer pack usage. Except it wasn't like stadium. It was a RPG where you can get your own robopon.

  5. Robopon sits up there in the gbc gems category along with Metal Walker, Magi Nation and Dragon Warrior Monsters. Games that should be played and enjoyed by all.
    A Robopon let's play would be perfect. Even if its later down the line.
    Also if not a remaster or reboot then Robopon should get onto the GBC I guess emu for the Nintendo Online Service.

  6. Haha watching you play and making fun of one my childhood games is hilarious. The game is super weird and doesn't really make any sense. Seeing it from a different point of view kinda makes sense. There's a lot they don't really explain. Here's a hint check all the shelves and bookcases for hidden items and the crate things in town have items too.

  7. Please keep playing it! I loved this game as a kid. I enjoyed it a lot. There are definitely wild battles and places to train just like pokemon. I remember thinking the encounter rate is not as high. Still a fun game, it seems like you just couldn't figure out where to go.
