I also manage Mecha Damashii and do toy reviews over at. If you are at all curious about my other game reviews, then head on over to my page at OpenCritic.įollow me on Twitter, Facebook and YouTube. I also haven’t included the remake of Demon’s Souls, as I have yet to acquire a PlayStation 5.Īpart from all that, it’s been a good year for Japanese games overall, and I look forward to what 2021 will bring. According to Wikipedia, they are doing 250 billion yen in revenue per year. Now, of course I expected Sony and Nintendo to be 1 and 2 but I did NOT expect Bandai Namco to be 3. As always there are a few omissions, with games like Death Stranding absent, simply because I found it just tedious and weirdly overrated. So I've been doing some research and I discovered that Bandai Namco is the 3rd largest video game publisher in Japan after Sony and Nintendo.
I just wish that Evo would add this game to its line-up, as it definitely deserves its place in the tournament scene. With a robust online setup and an extensive mission mode, there is a ton of content here to keep the hardiest arena battler busy. However, here it now is, and it is the thoroughbred arcade multiplayer game we all knew it would be. Not to mention the complete lack of Gundam Extreme Versus games released in the West back when the PlayStation 3 was still with us.

However, if my obsession with Gundam has taught me anything, it's that (for now) this franchise will remain strictly import-only. These apps will be available on iOS devices in Japan in the coming months, but there's no word if we'll ever see a U.S. The third app, NDAM Tool Box, presents what appears to be the cockpit of the titular Gundam mech, through which users are presented with shortcuts to other apps such as Safari or Mail. Gundam G Generation Touch is a slower paced, turn-based strategy RPG populated with supercute versions of the same 'bots.
Gundam Fighting Spirit is a stylized 2D-fighting game where players battle their favorite giant roboto against one another. Two of the demonstrated applications are games. It's no secret that I'm a huge fan of giant Japanese robots, specifically those from the Gundam anime franchise-there are more than 30 Gundam action figures/models littering my desk as I write-so I'm excited to see these apps in action. Based on the hugely popular Japanese model robots, Gundam Breaker 2 will have you build and battle with your favorite plastic mobile.
