SD Gundam Battle Alliance Blasts Onto Switch This Year

I'm going to get it but I'm still playing through the generations games. Not to mention the Robot Taisen games. Granted those are all SRPGs and not ARPGs but still.... I need a clone. I'm going to have to learn how to play games in my sleep.

All I ask is for playable Wing grunts. I'd love a Virgo II, Taurus or Aries... but at least just a Leo.

I’ll keep an eye on this, and would probably end up piloting the original RX-78 at first, then wind up using wacky G-Gundam mechs like Nobel Gundam and Gundam Maxter mostly afterward, or just stock GM’s or Zakus for a challenge. 😁

Incidentally, as I post this, the article says 2 comments (not including mine), but I see only HotGoomba’s.

It’s sad to think I’ve been ignored by a user here, likely another Gundam fan. It just bugs me to be omitted, as a mature and respectful reader here. I suppose just because I’m old school and believe everyone has something worthwhile to share and deserves to be heard (outside of harassment/abuse), doesn’t mean others have to do me that same courtesy.
This illustrates why outside of this site, I don’t use social media.
Sigh…

Wow, Teksetter. That's... some deep-seated insecurity on display there.

Hm interesting unfortunately I have no clue about gundam. 😅

I will need reviews but I am interested.

Why always chibi... Just give me a normal Gundam game.

I already have a bunch of Super Robot Wars games and a Gundam Genesis game to get through. Otherwise I'd definitely be looking into this.

Gundam!? Action RPG!? Take my money! TAKE IT!

This looks so cute. Yes, please. I will love this game.

This piques my interest, although getting tired of the musou style gameplay. Also from what little info available may be tilted more towards multiplayer.

I would like a more story-driven tactical shooter type game. I know Battle Operation 2 is available but its Free to Play with all that timed drops and other FTP malarky I have no time for; whilst the recently released campaign forces you to play as genocidal Space Nazis so not interested there.

How I miss the PS2 and the golden era of Gundam games (yes they weren’t exactly outstanding beacons of quality but they were fun, contained packages; well several of them).

Oh hey, Big Zam.

This looks really cool but I have extremely mixed feelings about SD Gundam. Towering mechas and cute SD design are a weird combination.

I'm also a casual Gundam fan at best, but if this had normal designs I would definitely be more interested.

@Lupin
Thank you for the comment, my kind gentleman thief.

"Insecurity" was not what I was trying to project in my rant last night, but I can understand your interpretation. I think what mainly motivated me to post were mixed feelings - indignity at being put on mute, a little FOMO from being excluded from (Gundam) conversations, and perhaps a little paranoia and sense of betrayed entitlement. Mostly it was just me being tired and emotional and way too obsessed with the comments here, I'd say.

It's the internet after all, and it's foolish to expect much courtesy and trust from anonymous strangers.
I apologize for forgetting my place. Please forgive my rant, and have a great day.

@JasmineDragon
I thought the same thing - I would prefer realistically-proportioned mobile suits over the SD versions. Maybe the chibi designs are easier to implement?
This presentation last night reminded me how much I liked the Gundam Federation vs Zeon arcade ports by Capcom(?) that were on the PS2 and GC long ago. They were very similar to this squad combat game, but with anime-accurate, realistic mechs. I bet you'd like those, if you haven't tried already.

@Lupin G Gen original suits like the Tornado Gundam or Sisquiede would make my day

Looking forward to a modern action Gundam game that isn’t about boost management or slow as molasses along with the even worse boost management. It’s a shame they botched New Gundam Breaker and banished that series to mobile hell.
