Guilty Gear waggles into the US, leaving glitches in Japan

Aksys Games, publishers of Hoshigami Remix on the DS, have announced that they're localizing Guilty Gear XX Accent Core, the fifth revision of the third entry in Arc System Works' totally metal 2D fighting series. The new version includes 2 new characters, A.B.A. and Holy Order Sol. Aksys claims that A.B.A. has "never been seen outside of Japan," a claim that is only true if nobody bought Guilty Gear Isuka.

In addition, Siliconera found a post on Aksys's official forums stating that they'll be fixing the bugs that were prevalent in the Japanese PS2 release. We consider "not being broken" a significant gameplay feature.

Finally, in a decisive victory for Internet linguists everywhere, the official press release advertises, in addition to Gamecube controller and Classic Controller play, "Waggle controls exclusive to the Wii!" It's, like, an official term now.

GG XX Accent Core on PS2 is buggy, Wii owners benefit

With the release of the PS2 version of Guilty Gear XX Accent Core this week in Japan, those quick to snatch the game up have found the title has more than its fair share of bugs and glitches. They're so bad that Arc System Works has issued an apology and delayed release of the Wii version of the game until July in Japan, giving them some time to fix all of the issues so that the Wii version of the game offers a better experience.

We've embedded video of the glitchy PS2 version in action past the post break.

New Guilty Gear screens and details

While these pictures are from scans and thus aren't the best quality, they come with a bonus bit of information: Guilty Gear XX Accent Core players will have a choice of two control schemes: Wiimote with full motion controls, or a more traditional control scheme. Just what we wanted!

This latest Guilty Gear is due out in Japan near the end of July.

Gundam 0079 revealed, Guilty Gear XX Accent Core announced

We have yet to get the first Gundam game in the US, and Bandai Namco is already moving on to another one. Whereas SD Gundam SCAD Hammers used the pudgy lil' SD Gundam characters, this one is based on Gundam 0079, which is serious business. We've got a scan featuring the first images from the game after the break.

Also announced, but not yet shown, was a Wii version of Guilty Gear XX Accent Core-- this is apparently 2D Fighter Announcement Week. We're a little scared to see how a precise 2d fighting game will use the Wiimote, and we're hoping that we can skirt the issue with configurable Classic Controller functionality. At least until Hori gets around to releasing a wireless joystick.
