Azito 3d (3ds)

Defend Your Underground Base With Giant Robots And Monsters In Azito 3D

Back on the PsOne, Banpresto made a series of base defending games before tower defense was all the rage. Players had to manage an economy and build giant robots to protect their underground base in Azito. Hamster picked the series up and plan to revive it on Nintendo 3DS with Azito 3D.

This upcoming 3DS game sticks to a similar formula, but adds touchscreen controls for easier secret base building. You can place robot labs and monster labs to create giant defenders and huge hangars to store them until a battle begins. Other rooms in Azito 3D, like labs, bring in funds for players to use to expand their underground lair. You also have to manage the amount of energy by building the right number of power reactors.

The goal of the game is to keep expanding and successfully protect your secret base from invaders. Azito’s unique blend of kaiju brawls and base planning heads to the Nintendo 3DS this summer.

I'd forgotten about this ancient series of games! I'm not sure if Nintendo of America would approve this even though it's a fun bit of gaming (well, it was back on the PS One) as it's not exactly showing off what the 3DS can do and I think they're probably going to be looking at more games that are a bit flashy over ones that are deep and very niche (enjoyable though they may be). Still, it would be great to see this localized (it's going to be a mighty task if this is as kanji intensive as the PS One games were...)
