How many of you faggots played this? Probably the best game I've ever played. Never been topped. Gameplay is incredible, story is meta and funny while still being engaging, music and aesthetics were kickass. Multiplayer NEVER gets boring. Seriously. Find me a better game.

Damn dude that's cold

Agreed. Fuck off melee, this is the best game on the gamecube. I'm so sad there hasn't been a sequel for ages.

>game play never gets borring

Me and my brothers kinda ruined it. We kept redeveloping our meta (ignoring illegal parts) until we got to simply the on of the heavy models with a sniper gun. Just wait for them to attack and trade with a shot from the sniper, will win the majority of the time.

3ds game was a little more balanced bit kinda lacks die to no 4 player.

>story is meta
this is in no way a positive

There was a shitty thing for the DS, but I couldn't even make it through.

Really? I found the sniper to be one of the worst PvP weapons out there. No real coverage, other than the line between you and the enemy.

if you like ignoring how ridiculous video games really are, sure! But I like a healthy dose of self-consciousness

I thought the DS game was really good actually, basically Arena but more balanced and worse graphically. Plot was shit though, I'll agree there.

Only problem with it is its hard to hit with when the tatgets moving. But they gotta stop at some point ro attack and the sniper trades pretty well agaismt everything.

Throw in some homing pods and wide spreed bombs to apply more pressure and your set. For close up one of the heavy moddles has a retartedly op melee, so you just spam that.

I play for the whole package. Gameplay is obviously important, but I can't get interested in it alone. The story was what drove me away, really. It was like they tried to make afterschool specials edgy. If you're going for edge, fucking GO.

idk about illegal parts, but the flying robots with high mobility and homing shots stop heavy+sniper

the teleporting robots work best with sniper/dragon imo

>after school specials.
Pretty much describes it prefectly. Plot reminds me of metabots or something.

Best Gamecube game Best character

>fast aerial
Went through that to. Satalite pods and what ever the bomb that just causes exploshions in the air shut them down to hard.

This and the DS game have some really bad 2D art. Which is the only bad thing I can think about them, they're really dang good

As a ~13 year old I remember spamming dragon against the AI good times

This was the first game I beat in one sitting as a young lad

All its merits aside, this game was a reaction image gold mine

CR has some of the best video game reaction images ever.

Bull shit, unless you didn't read a single piece of dialog or do anything but follow the plot. The story was looong, especially including the postgame bonus arc

Did you get all that?

>Yes

>No

>WHO ARE YOU?! WHERE AM I!?

it was worth listening to the dialog twice every time.

agreed

Tempest
V Laser
Direct Bomb
Buster Pod
Booster Legs

I still boot up Arena from time to time to just try some different builds, but the one constant is that Tempest is my nigga.

One of the best multiplayer games I've ever played. Story was weird, but still fun.

What was your favorite/go-to robo build? Hard mode: no illegals.
>shrike
>splash gun
>wave bomb
>cockroach pod
>ground feet

I did it last summer. Took me almost an entire day, if not more, but I never stood up the whole time.

So how did you pee?

>Friend has the ds version
>has all the normal parts but no illegals
>Play agaisnt him
>set the map to the one with acid aand 4 moving island's
>put on titan everything
>use that floating illegal bot

Needless to say we did'nt play for very long.

>Ray01
>3-way
>Geo trap bomb
>reflection pods
>long dash boots

>Couldn't beat illegals with normal parts
What a fucking casual.

I liked the little fast goobers with the stungun or the drill
It wasn't always the best idea but it felt so satisfying when me and my brothers would play

The titan bomb would hit an a entire island when they were separated. Insant kill into the acid.

I held it.

Then he should have switched to a bot and legs that could cross the gap.
It's not like Titan bomb has a fast travel time,

>3ds version with 3D dioramas and streetpass ai battles (your set is a cpu that the other player fights) never ever

...

>3D Dioramas
You're thinking too small.

If they ever do a sequal i hope they let the play use a second primary weapon. I coils see lot of fun builds with 2 primary weapons.

Jesus christ yes pls.

I played the absolute fuck out of this game back in the day. So good.

Are these types of games just doomed to not be successful?

>give mira the watch dad told you to never even take off
>have to backtrack all the way back to their house to get it at the end

This is why I foolishly came to like video games

A real damn shame, the second and third games looked pretty fun.

How was that one?

I don't think these things really work out because they really need to be set up to be beyblade type fads.

It was decent, enough to get your tiny robot fix.

...

From what I played it was alright. Not too bad combat and customization. Really wish it had online though.

Pic related is probably my favorite of these fun-sized robot battle games.

My god, someone whose favorite is something other than the GBA games?
Quick someone take a picture.

I remember cheesing a lot of the bosses with the frame that lets you jump a gorillion times and the dragon gun that homes onto everything.

There is nothing wrong with the GBA games.

Custom robo isnt even the best robo fighter on the GC. Play gotcha force if you want a real 10/10.

Ray MK II>all other Rays
Felt fantastic to get it back in the post-game.

Strike vanisher can tele through bombs and pods, and there are a ton of guns that can fire from behind walls

Reminder that you could literally break every single fight in the game by using Harry's robo+Formula Legs+Punch Gun.
Faster and more health then a little raider, more stability if you ever got shot and a not stupid as fuck dash attack.

Custom robo was a budget title Iirc, it apparently it was good with around 200k sales.

Best game on the cube. Probably of the generation.

Picked it up at microplay, digged it alot, then I think I ended up loosing it or something when I was a yung boi. Good times.

i need them all user

>that fucking chicken frame
so good tho

Eh

RE

i remember seeing it in a walmart one day and thinking "huh, that looks kind of like a gundam" and the back of the box showed them fighting and i thought maybe it'd be neat.

best impulse buy i've ever made.

I love Custom Robo but holy shit go play some damn Virtual On you fucking faggot

best build coming through
>peregrine
>knuckle gun

It was a good game.
>asks you if the world is round
>"Yeah its round, like a sphere!"
>"Didn't they teach you anything? the world is flat"
>Elevator takes you into space.

>post yfw "Is the world round or flat?"

It still makes me sad they cut everything Custom Robo related from Smash.
Not even trophies left.

It's a top tier game to play every once and a while, a lot better when you have friends after beating the story mode though.

Preferred loadouts?

I havent played in a while, but I liked rocking a Little Raider with the stun gun. Rush in dodging shit, taze them to take off a healthy chunk of HP, then speed off again to look for another opening. Pods and bombs vary to try and pin the enemy down.

...

Gatling Strike Vanisher is what I used for a while, it's pretty fun, but a bit bullshit because of Javelin's instant charges.

>32

...

I just got it a few weeks ago, only played through the battle with those bandits but it's really fun so far.
I'm looking forward to customizing my robot, plus now I know where one of my favorite reaction images comes from.

Finally a good use for these stupid cards

MAH NIGGA. Nobody ever posts about this amazing Gamecube gem and its still one of my favorite games of all time. I replay this game at least one a year.

i think i beat the whole game mostly using the rayfall and halberd
i just liked teleporting

Yeah, too bad it will never ever ever ever happen.

We just had a thread last week, and they usually pop up at least once a month. Custom Robo hasn't been forgotten yet.

Who was best girl?

There was a dark period of a year or so, where everyone on Sup Forums never spoke about this game and/or never heard of it. it was a bad time.

Lightning Skies with powerful weapons that normally hold you in place.
Always good for a laugh.

Linda

Anyone know if the first two Custom Robo games are easy to play untranslated?

Billy

zip where???

>I still have the OC that one user made during a Sup Forums playthrough

he never finished and I'm still sad

I love custom robo arena but the aesthetics of GC version are so horrible, how can you even play it.

need to learn japanese to play the original but don't want to turn into a weeb ;_;

Gotcha Force is better

>yfw you first realized that everything was in a dome

>there was an entire class based around this in CR:A
>CR:A ran at something like 20 fucking frames, was limited to 1v1, had a story that negatively impacted the game instead of being funny and charming like the GC game's story
AND forced you to play through all of it to get to anything that wasn't the story
Why the fuck couldn't they have waited for better hardware for this game? It was murdered by the DS' limitations.

>yfw the first time you fought rahu

user the deviantart-tier art is half the fun

Man, I actually crushed that first campaign in an 8 hour session fueled by mexican Coke.

But then I got floored by the tea party tournament, in Grand Battle mode

>the plants felt unfamiliar
>they weren't made out of plastic or metal

>there will never be a sequel

is it? I thought it was just a joke bot

Unlike the Can parts it's legitimately good.

highlight of the thread, thank you based user

i remember emailing the creators of custom robo a few years back thanking them for the game and they responded like months later talking about how the love for the game is still strong in the west
