The many, many, many pilots of Gundam Battle Universe

PSP's Gundam Battle Universe is only a week away (for importers, at least). Namco Bandai is cramming a load of Gundam history into this upcoming action game, and this trailer does its job of reiterating that point. This lengthy video goes over the nearly endless stream of characters and suits that are playable in the upcoming game. With production values like these, it's easy to see Battle Universe tearing up the Japanese sales charts for yet another easy PSP victory. Watch out for it.

New Gundam Battle Universe Famitsu scans

For those who are anticipating the July 11th Japanese release of Gundam Battle Universe, we have a couple of scans to help alleviate the pain of waiting for this import to reach your hands. It features of the mecha from the many incarnations of Gundam, new mission features, and their female (at least I think they are... one can never tell with anime) pilots. Why is there another Gundam game you ask? Like the endless number of Dragon Ball Z games, they never fail to sell extremely well over in Japan.

Gundam Battle Universe trailer complete with mecha geekiness

This Gundam Battle Universe trailer has everything a Gundam otaku needs. There's a good set of mobile suits to see. Even more exciting is watching those same mobile suits blow each other up all to the sonance of those wacky sound effects and overly-excited voice-overs. What's there not to love? And hey, there's four minutes of it. The game seems to be set for release on July 17 in Japan. Anyone planning to import?

Gundam Battle Universe continues anime license flood

by Andrew Yoon { Apr 17th 2008 at 6:00AM }

The Japanese can never have too much Gundam. PSP has been home to a number of Gundam titles, and each one has sold a fair share of copies. The upcoming Gundam Batlte Universe is an unsurprising addition to the PSP library, all things considered.

It's yet another compilation game, which combines many decades of Gundam lore into a single title. Tipster Torin V. says that it plays like Virtual On -- we'll take his word on that.

Check out the entire scan at GAForum.
