maybe they didn’t want to include shows that were canceled

(which is funny since the original Gundam series was cut short)

“X came before Turn A”

Oh yeah……….wow I feel like an idiot. All I know is I wished they had X in there since I liked it more, and they had G and Wing in there so why not?….oh well.

X came before Turn A. They also left out Victory Gundam and the kids from Char’s Counterattack, not to mention all the characters from the various UC OVAs. I think they just wanted the mostly not-shitty characters :V

Yeah, the latest gundam series in DW:Gundam is Turn A, so unfortunately no X…

I agree, it is a ton of fun if you’re a fan. The only beam gun weapon that’s actually really effective for doing a good bit of damage is the Wing Zero’s twin buster rifle attacks; the rest are pretty much useless unfortunately, though it’s still fun.

Range attacks being weak is a Dynasty Warrior thing. Even if you had the best bow with the best arrows with the accessories to boost bow damage on the character that was the best with the bow… the damage was still crap.

I don’t think Gundam Musou has anything beyond SEED (or X for that matter). Nobody cared long enough. And yeah, melee attacks are much much more powerful in that game than everything else. Which means units that are originally more melee-aligned (I’m looking at your Burning and Master Gundam) have the upperhand.

That doesn’t mean Amuro’s good ol’ RX-78 isn’t worth shit. At least, it has a beam spear.
And the Wing Zero (and I think the Zeta Gundam) can change into their Waverider (read: flying thingies) forms for easier movement on the battlefield. Not that it helps a lot, but it does make the experience better, I guess.
