    It is my understanding that digital games/DLC are region locked on consoles/PC, but the physical games are region free. I don't know your situation, but you'd probably have to use a site like PlayAsia to get the physical Switch game in that scenario.

    So, new SD Gundam Battle Alliance trailer dropped: TL;DW: -100% confirmed this is a "Gundam is a simulation" crossover. -Console demo drops July 22, save progress carries over if you buy on that console. -Characters do interact with each other a little if they're in your squad. -AGE-FX and...

    Well yeah, UC has the most staying power... because it's the only one they built upon to that extent. Having a back to back stretch of three shows, plus the original and its trilogy adaptations, plus CCA, plus 2 OVAs, all before the turn of the century gives UC a critical mass none of the other...

    Honestly, it felt like Bandai didn't allow any of the season 1 characters to die or replaced them with identical twins so they wouldn't have to change their merchandising stuff. So you wound up with tons of redundant characters all competing for the same amount of screentime, because Bandai...

    She got done dirty in 00 Season 2, but pretty much everyone who wasn't Setsuna and Tieria got screwed by the absurd amount of characters and plot packed into that season. It would've been nice if Soma/Marie and Allelujah/Hallelujah were constantly switching personalities and interacting with...

    Threadmarks: SD Gundam Battle Alliance Announced (Multiplatform, Localized)

    Guess what - there's a new Gundam game coming out this year: Bandai Namco will release SD Gundam Battle Alliance for the Nintendo Switch sometime in 2022. Information regarding the title appeared during a Nintendo Direct. In the presentation, several key gameplay features were revealed. This...

    That's not disturbing, that's to be expected when each show has a different tone, story elements, and themes. The people who like the 90s UC OVAs are not necessarily going to like the mainline UC stories, the people who dislike a lot of UC's more out there elements probably won't like 00 S2...

    What I never got was why anyone thought doing the anime and game concurrently was a good idea. They should have given the game a few months to work out a rough script, then started making the show.

    Here's a compiled set of translations about how Gundam AGE was a dumpster fire of a production: The interviews with the main showrunner (Hino) are very illuminating.

    Well, its not a certainty that its going to be Build Divers... or Build Fighters for that matter. For all we know, they could create some kind of new Build subfranchise. That said, we would be seeing a lot of CG for the Gunpla battles (if there are any), which may/may not be a good thing...

    Here's some more stuff in the Build subfranchise: http://gundamnews.org/gundam-build-divers-battlogue-anime-and-live-action-gundam-build-film-announced-for-gunpla-40th-anniversary Not feeling real good about that live action thing, mostly because anime to live action doesn't really work well.

    If you ever wanted to know how Gunpla is made, here you go: https://asia.nikkei.com/static/vdata/gundam/newsgraphics/bandai-gunpla/ As someone working in a machine shop, I greatly respect and admire the work these guys do when working the molds.

    Guess what - if you've got a PC, you can play G Generation Cross Rays! Also available via PS4 and Nintendo Switch, but I think you have to import them, unless Bandai Namco decides to randomly drop links to them on the US/EU stores.

    Honestly, the best bet for a Zeta rewrite involving Sayla would be a live action Universal Century movie series, one that focuses on making things less stupid and full of retcons. Problem is that Sunrise probably wouldn't approve of it diverging far enough to fix many of the problems (like the...

    Here's a random non-anime/non-Gunpla thing: Crunchyroll Announces Expansive Gundam Licensing Partnership with SUNRISE & SOTSU Also, Gundam Battle Operation 2 is out on US PSN, so there's that too.

    Here's an out of left field comparison - Gundam Build Divers and the XFL: The argument that they're both attempts to cash in on super popular things (the NFL/Build Fighters) without understanding what made the originals good is fine, it's just some of the other stuff like the episode where...

    There may be a stream or something tonight (EST - midday tomorrow Japan time) about Build Divers Re:Rise. Not 100% sure on this, due to the tweet I originally saw the info being deleted.
