why dont you let people like duckroll or jonnyram handle JP mag news threads? I dont get what's the point of trying to be the first to post news, specially when you dont have a firm grasp of the language.

not trying to be an ass just saying.
 
Gundam 0079 looks a lot like The Ace Pilot on the Gamecube, actually.*

*This is not a jab at the Wii, since The Ace Pilot was an awesome game.

I saw the scan on 2ch before it was posted here, it's not like you need to know a language to make a thread.

Looks better than Gundam Crossfire.
Anything is better than Gundam Crossfire.

But if they can retain the greatness that was Ace Pilot for the GC and have waggle controls... best gundam game ever. My JP Wii is crying with tears of happiness over this news.

I guess we can leave the rest of this week's news in your capable hands then :)
Right, off to play some WoW.

I guess even MAKING a thread is wrong, certainly prevents others from posting. Will not make any in the future.

0079 is super popular in Japan. It's a lot like Star Wars or Star Trek to the Japanese.

Actually, 0079 games aren't selling that well anymore because people are getting pretty sick of only 0079 games. One Year War bombed and Crossfire is sorta bombish. Will be interesting if this sells, but if I was a betting man I wouldn't bet on this one selling more than 50-70k or so opening week.

Sorry about that, I should've clarified what I meant by popular, I know the games aren't selling well (damn shame that One Year War bombed), but the original Gundam property itself is still popular in Japan.

Best looking wii game ever.

Wii Gundam 0079

Wtf? So.. Exists a law that prohibits to publish the American/European games in Japan in time?

Alright, I promise not to make another in the future, a news thread without updated news is obviously not worth making. I saw the scan on 2ch and figured the Team ICO stuff was fake due to the change on nekogagotoku's blog earlier, so I made a new thread. It's useless to even try to help even without knowing the language, it doesn't get appreciated (seems to get the opposite reaction... probably because of my run-ins with ducky a few months back) and seems to prevent those who know Japanese from posting. I apologize.

Wow, so the Guilty Gear rumor was true after all (assuming Souta is true).

It's all about Bartender DS. If that's what I think it is, I might have to pick up a DS.

:lol

his project is treasure island z

That's apparently not the case... Last week, Jonnyram posted :

Inafune is reportedly also working on a third title (besides RE5 and DMC4), that will be revealed shortly.

Treasure Island Z has already been revealed, so this source is obviously mentioning another project. And Inafune already stated that he worked on a Wii project, so it's not hard to make the correlation.
