How is it not a fighter? Like I said, it lacks the SFII template, but it is still as much a fighting game as, say for example, Pit-Fighter. Here's a laundry list of reasons why V Gundam is not a fighter: It's only 1-player. You have lives that are consumed every time you die, and you can die multiple times per battle. Aside from the duels with Cronicle and Katejina, you're always fighting hordes of enemies that appear in groups of 2-3. You have no special moves of any kind. You have an attack with a beam saber, your vulcans, and your beam rifle. V Gundam isn't even a fighter in the vague sense that games like Smash Bros or even Virtual On are considered fighters. It's simply a standard action game with fixed locations rather than scrolling stages. If we include V Gundam, we're going to have to include Battle Assault 3, Gundam SEED for PS2 and the Capcom versus series.

Will there be a separate article in the future for the Arcade/PS2 Capcom Gundam Vs. games?

I sure hope it will be separate. I personally don't like that the BA games are clumped with the other fighters with BA3 ditched.

Has this article been abandoned?

Has this article been abandoned? Hopefully not. Off-topic, but that DBZ HD thing that you screenshotted has not gone up because I am going to rewrite it slightly and expand it to have the other SFC games as well. It will still have your screenshots for DBZ HD, though.

Yeah part of me just wants to stick up the article as is and just suck it up. I might do that, eventually.

That'd be a shame when all we need are a few character descriptions for Battle Assault 2 and some kind of concluding paragraph. Now that finals are over, I can actually work on stuff, so let's not kill this thing yet.

Yeah, you know? How about this - I rip the extra character profiles, someone can write about them, we'll polish it up and call it a day. Cool?

I was going to do it, but okay.
I think the char descriptions for Battle Master and Battle Master 2 could use a quick grammar fix.

If you have time, please feel free to write them all. I'm pretty strapped, esp. during the holidays when everybody wants projects completed in time for the new year (resulting in constant 12-hour workdays for me) but if nobody else has time or is familiar with the characters, I'll volunteer to do a part. Just let me know.

You know, considering the BA games have characters from several anime and the plot is pretty minimal and insignificant, I don't see why we need character descriptions in the first place.

I really hate to necropost, but is this article (2D Gundam games) still going under work? I'd be interested in seeing if there is anything worth contributing for Battle Master/Battle Assault writing. I have a few screenshots, though not specifically in-game ones... I.E.

Alright guys, I'm digging this up from its grave again.
To finish off, I basically need quick descriptions for these characters for the Battle Assault games.
Akahana Heero Mikhail Gato Scirocco Judau Kamiru Denim Ple-Two Char Haman
Trowa Argo Sai Domon Chibodee George Master Zechs Quatre Wufei Duo Amuro Shiroh Dozul Valdor Treize Kyoji Ulube
Some of these (mostly Char/Amuro and the Gundam Wing folk, as well as the G Gundam fellows) were covered earlier in the article, so just mention any minor differences.
Once that's set, we should be good to go!
