Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash is the fifth game in the Chibi-Robo series, and its first 2D entry. This time, Chibi-Robo must stop aliens from taking over the world. So begins a worldwide adventure, featuring unusual gameplay mechanics (a spin wheel to randomly select levels and grinding for coins to fight the final boss) and many shameless product placements.

Zip Line was universally panned by critics and was one of the biggest commercial flops of any Nintendo-published game. This, along with poor sales due to Nintendo’s general lack of marketing for the series in the past, resulted in the Chibi-Robo franchise being put on ice. Put simply, this game blows.

To do: There's leftover debug and test files in the shader folder: ds_debug.shbin and test00.shbin. There's a debug file in the script folder known as debug.nb. There's a glitch you can do before the World 3 boss which brings up an invisible debug menu that can play its intro and defeated cutscenes. Look more into this. Any unused items?

Dummy Tracks

Present in the stream folder are three tracks named DUMMY_HOK_STR, dummy_hzmt, and dummy2. None of them contain any music, so it's very likely they were used as placeholders.
