Play SD Gundam Gaiden - Knight Gundam Monogatari (Japan) (Rev 1) Online

SD Gundam Gaiden: Knight Gundam Monogatari is one of those weird, charming NES RPGs where chibi Gundams wear medieval armor and swing swords instead of firing beam rifles. You start off as a tiny knight—well, a tiny Gundam dressed as a knight—wandering through blocky castles and fighting monsters in turn-based battles. The sprites are adorable, and the music has that classic 8-bit RPG vibe, all bleeps and bloops with the occasional dramatic fanfare.

At first, it feels like a standard fantasy RPG, just with mobile suits instead of wizards. But then you realize you can recruit other Gundam knights to your party, each with their own little quirks. The translation’s a bit rough (it never officially left Japan), but the gameplay’s straightforward enough that you can muddle through. Just don’t expect deep lore—this is more about smacking dragons with a laser sword.
