          It's not like they couldn't use them to make a proper single player game either since Code Fairy exists.

          Don't we have all the latest VS games localized on PS4 already?
          Spirits of Zeon is actual trash and Senjou no Kizuna is more of a cool amusement park attraction, the pod is what makes the whole experience.

                No way in hell its has more lifetime sales than popular mobile suits kits like the RX-78, Nu-Gundam or Unicorn.

      This is the quintessential reason. Any good quality we've seen from a Gundam game came as passion from the developers making it rather than a desire for quality from the people bankrolling it. Gundam Evolution was pretty standard fair as far as Gundam games went, a legit game made by people you can tell care about the series bogged down by the greed and rush of executives.

      But they're based though as they announced the yuri couple in Witch from Mercury never happened.

      >thinking it's based that old suits don't even know the shows they bankroll and just see them in terms of markets

    MH Rise,PSO2:NGS,FF origin, Soul hackers 2,FE engage,Wild hearts, Wo long and SD gundam Battle alliance has shown the fall of the Japanese game. And so does Shin Megami Tensei 5, which was just an utter garbage. Even Worse, Honkai starrail ,Zenless zone zero and Lies of P will dominate Japanese game market completely.
    Genshin,Starrail,Lies of P and Zenless zone Zero reduces DMC5,Dark souls 3,Sekiro, FFXIV,MHW,Elden ring into a mediocre shovelware.

    Elden ring was just a Fraud garbage like Cyberpunk because of shit optimization.
    Xenoblade 3 is a Metascore manipulated because Japanese dev feared genshin so they manipulated metacritics like TLOU2.
    At least we West still makes good game like Avowed, MS flying sim, D4 and OW2,Halo infinity, AoE4,Elder scrolls 6,STARFIELD,Modern warfare 2 and Forza horizon 5 so that they keep China and Korea from dominating America's game market. Phil Fish was right. Japan has no where to stand in gaming. Japanese games are dead. The time is for Chinese game and Xbox.

    >Dogshit games
    Gihren's Greed was fricking great.
    Operation Troy is pretty good and it's a Battlefront clone but it's trapped on the Xbox 360 and was Japan-only, a fan translation came out recently though, good luck running it on Xenia though.
    The PS2 games were "okay" though, but Zeonic Front was pretty great. CCA on PS1 was surprisingly fun too.

    The same reason why superhero games were dogshit for the longest time; they sell gangbusters regardless of their quality.
    Obviously every now and then somebody had the crazy idea to make an actually good game, and eventually that idea even stuck in the west, but the japs are clearly not there yet.
