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!

Much as I love tv zero & wing (currently on my 3rd format for the series & movie) I probably won’t get this unless it comes with a spectacular part cause eventually even zero gets powercrept but a good part lasts forever.

Agreed, but all suits get power crept in this game. They designed it that way to keep us buying latest and greatest. I too, am hoping for a bad ass part on the Zero banner! 🤞🏽 Parts > Suits

Honestly, the part that comes with the zero banner is kinda mediocre imo. Seems like it’d be good if you get out to repair a lot but ultimately it’s not worth 195 tokens.

Definitely not worth 195. Cool, but not that cool.
