Namco Bandai Hints at new Gundam VS game

[Hop2089]

Namco Bandai will soon be showing off the latest entry in the Gundam VS series, arcade game information site AM-Net reports today.

The site posted the contents of an invitation to Namco Bandai's 2011 Winter New Product Sales Meeting event. The invite mentions the following games for show at the event:

• Gundam VS Series Latest Title
• Dark Escape 3D
• Taiko Drum Master (New Cabinet)
• Tekken Tag Tournament 2

Tekken Tag Tournament 2 needs no introduction. Taiko Drum Master's cabinet revision was announced last week. Dark Escape 3D is a gun shooting game that was shown at the September AM Show (see Dengeki's coverage here).

The Namco Bandai arcade showcase will be held on December 8 and 9 in Tokyo, December 12 and 13 in Osaka and December 15 in Fukuoka. The event is invite only, but the Japanese press is often among the invite list to these types of things, so if a new Gundam VS game is announced we'll likely hear about it.

Note: The only reason arcade news is posted is due to Gundam Vs always getting ported to PS3/PSP, and the chances of a port 6 months-year after release is certain for the PS3 or Vita.

Gundam Vs now with possible AGE support, too bad it will be a while after release before it's ported. They are milking the cow here.

You can never get enough Gundam.

Did you pre-order Extreme VS Hop?

Gundam VS games are great and all. I should be getting Extreme VS the day after it comes out from my import dealer.

But I'm much more of a Musou guy. Hopefully we'll see Gundam Musou 4 next year.

Did you pre-order Extreme VS Hop?

Yes, I preordered it already, on the exact day it is up for preorder on Play Asia which was actually the day of the TGS announcement.

Can't wait for my copy of Extreme VS to get here...
