Custom Robo is a video game for the Nintendo GameCube. It is a science fiction action game in which the player, called a commander, pilots and customizes a miniature robot to battle other players in an arena called a Holosseum. Holosseums come in a variety of sizes and layouts, and some even feature environmental hazards, such as ice or lava. The average robo is 30 centimeters tall. The first half of the story takes place in a Domed City which the people in belived was the extent of the world. This, however, is not the case. The second half of the story takes place outside the dome. After the story mode is completed, the player may choose to go through the story again or enter a series of tournaments called the Grand Battle

Characters

- Lucy: Your landlady who wakes you up every morning. She knows nothing about Custom Robos. Later in the game she will acquire a Robo of her own in "The Grand Battles".
- Harry: A member of the Steel Hearts who first wanted to have you join so that he can boss you around. He tries to be a real ladies man, and for whatever reason, it seems to work sometimes, but he often fails. It turns out after you join, he is still the one being pushed around. He will give you some good tips and advice before most battles, so make sure you listen carefully to what he says.
- Marcia: A member of the Steel Hearts who is the pride of the team for some part of the game. Orphaned, she lived with her brother--an ex member of the police squad--until he left suddenly. She has the ability to "Half-Dive," which means to see through a Robo's eyes and even read the last thoughts of the Robo's Commander, when she does, though, it can strain her mentally, so she can't half dive for too long.
- Ernest: The leader of the Steel Hearts. He doesn't do much but call members of the Steel Hearts and give them their assignments, but usually just ends up yelling at them. In "The Grand Battle" he's in a few parts but serves no major purpose apart from organizing the Steel Hearts Cup. He has a keen eye for poetry.
- Evil: Your "Arch-Nemesis". He runs another bounty hunter group named Dark Blue.Has a huge ego. Evil thinks of himself as a king and that he is caring and the smartest one of them all, often saying he threw a fight on purpose when he loses, but he lets his pride interfere with everything, yet that does not prevent him from keeping his loyal (and slightly dim witted) minions by his side.
