Retail Roundup: April 21, 2009

Ed Kirchgessner  //  April 21, 2009


This week: robots of all varieties.

B

eginning a relatively quiet week is this fresh take on an old classic. Excitebots: Trick Racing takes most of what made Excitebike and Excite Truck so enjoyable and adds robots. While the combination may sound over the top, this looks to be a rather solid kart racer for the Wii. If nothing else, this first party release would give you something else to do with all those racing wheels you have lying around your game room.

Koei's never been known for its fresh ideas — after all, who needs new properties when you can instead make Nobunaga's Ambition XVIII? All kidding aside, Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 2 is actually a match made in heaven. Combining one of the most beloved anime franchises in history with one of the best selling button mashers was an act of pure genius. The sequel arrives this week for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PS2. I call Gundam Ez8!
