Play SD Gundam Gaiden - Knight Gundam Monogatari 2 - Hikari no Kishi (Japan) Online

Ever wanted to see Gundams in full medieval armor, jousting like knights of the round table? That’s basically SD Gundam Gaiden - Knight Gundam Monogatari 2 in a nutshell. It’s this weirdly charming NES game where tiny, super-deformed Gundams swap beam sabers for actual swords and shields. The sprites are adorable, and the whole thing feels like someone mashed up Arthurian legend with a robot anime—somehow it works.

You start off as a rookie knight (well, rookie Gundam knight) running around castles, fighting other mechs in turn-based duels. The combat’s simple but satisfying—you pick attacks, block, or charge up for special moves. And yeah, there’s a story here too, something about light and darkness, but honestly, I was mostly here for the absurdity of watching a tiny Gundam in a cape declare honor before clashing swords.

If you’ve played the first game, this one tightens up the mechanics a bit. If not, no worries—it’s easy to jump into, though the menus are all in Japanese. Just follow the icons and enjoy the pixel-art jousting tournaments. It’s one of those games that makes you smile just by existing.
