Game Boy gets its first strategy game and its first Gundam game… and Kunitori Monogatari is pretty lousy at being either. Rather than depicting a cool Gundam, this is about chubby robot suits in ancient Japan. And the cumbersome strategy interface yields to some absolute rock-bottom barrel-scraping fighting game. Disastrous.

I have SD Sengokuden 2 and it’s an amazing game for me. However I’m biased because I was a kid in the 80s in Japan when they first brought out the SD Gundam toys which were Gashapon, and I had a pretty cool awesome collection back in the day. I bought this game recently because I wanted a version that didn’t use the battery back up. As far as I can tell this one doesn’t seem to. The second one is FAR FAR better, but if something goes wrong with my SD Sengokuden 2 then this one should suffice.
