Yesterday we caught wind of a set of Gundam games and apps courtesy of Japanese video game magazine Famitsu. All of these games are currently playable at the Tokyo Game Show, and our friends over at AppBank have posted hands-on videos. We still don't know much about these games, or if they'll even be released in English on the US App Store, but quite a few people are excited for them judging by the comments from yesterday.

Gundam Fighting Spirit � A fighting game where players are pit against other mobile suits.


Gundam G Generation Touch � A strategy RPG with what sounds like tons of content with additional suits to unlock.


NDAM Tool Box � A Gundam-themed dashboard-like app lets you launch things like Safari, Mail, and other apps.


The Gundam suite of games and apps is scheduled for release this winter, but as I already mentioned, we still haven't heard whether this will be a Japanese-only release or not.

""Capcom's Street Fighter IV [$9.99] not only is proving to be a fantastic fighter for the iPhone, but also one of the best supported games we've seen from big-name developers who historically haven't had that great of a track record when it comes to free content updates. We loved the game when it was first released, as evident in our review. Since then, both Cammy and Zangief have been added, and this most recent update includes E.Honda and C.Viper. Each come with two costumes, their own associated set of moves, and combos to master. Also included are some new costumes for Ryu and Chun-Li available via in-app purchase.

If you haven't picked up Street Fighter IV yet, now is a fantastic time to get on board. Capcom did an amazing job adapting the controls to the touchscreen of the iPhone, the graphics look great, and you really can't argue about four additional characters being added since release for free. Hopefully Capcom keeps the update train rolling.

""A few days ago we were surprised to see Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck's Revenge [99�] dropped to a dollar, but today the original The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition [99�] as well as Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck's Revenge for iPad [$4.99] saw similar price drops. In the past we've posted at length about Monkey Island and Monkey Island 2 and both games are about as classic as you can get when it comes to point and click adventures.

The Monkey Island series follows the exploits of Guybrush Threepwood, a white blouse wearing wannabe pirate with a name that is nearly constantly mispronounced by every character you come across in both games. The ghost pirate LeChuck causes problems in both game, and vanquishing him both times requires a ridiculous adventure filled with hilarious writing, a great soundtrack, and complete voiceovers. If you have an iPad, I highly recommend picking up the iPad version since it looks fabulous on the device� and it even comes with director commentary.

You really can't go wrong with both of the iPhone games for 99� a pop. Both work fine on the iPad pixel doubled, and while they don't have Retina Display resolution graphics, they're still a ton of fun to play through on the iPhone and each version of the game comes with an associated lite if you'd like to try before you buy.

Update: Scratch that bit about Retina Display graphics, Monkey Island 2 was updated mere moments ago to include high resolution graphics. If you've got an iPhone 4 or new iPod touch, this is 99��you really should spend.
