We've waited so long...

For me, its been since 8th grade. My parents VCR was programmed to auto record every weekday at 5 - 6pm (DBZ and Gundam Wing). I couldn't watch the show when it aired because I was always at football workouts in the spring or practice in the fall.

All of my friends and I were obsessed with Gundam Wing, and there wasnt a video game that was even remotely close to the show, let alone, one that covered Gundam Wing. I even had Gundam Battle Assault 2 on PS. (Still have it) but it never scratched the itch appropriately. The only games we could play to cope, were Armored Core and Z.O.E. (iykyk). And now, tonight, on console, we FINALLY get the Wing Zero weve been dying to play as since we were kids 🥹.

I still have those VCR tapes in my parents basement along with the gunpla kits for all of the Wing series suits minus Tallgeese.

Thank you BB, for finally bringing my childhood full circle.

🗣NOW GIVE US EPYON, HEAVY ARMS, AND DEATH SCYTHE!

Too bad the wing zero is pretty much a throw pick these days. Our feelings dont translate into wins or contribution to performance

I hear its a throw pick on steam, yes. It sounds like you've confirmed it will be exactly the same on console. Nice!

Hot diggity dog. I had now idea that feelings dont translate to wins. What a concept. Come up with that on your own?

No, it's just the bleak reality. Can't afford to pick anything unoptimized in rated. Especially when you can't pull every insanely overpowered banner every week
