Line 91:
* [[Ramming Always Works]]: In ''NEXT'' the Zeta Gundam can perform its famous "Waverider Crash" on command; when in [[Unstoppable Rage|Biosensor Rage Mode]] the attack becomes even more powerful.
* [[Relationship Values]]: In P.L.U.S. Mode of ''Alliance vs ZAFT II Plus'', each character's attitude towards Shinn determines how the AI handles them; if they like you, they'll defect to fight alongside you, but if you've pissed them off they'll jump ship and try to kill you. Get a character's friendship to max, and you can opt to play as them rather than Shinn.
* [[The Same but More]]: ''Gundam vs Zeta Gundam'''s Universal Century Mode has an overarching [[What If]] story where Zeon's invasion of Jaburo succeeds; this leads to a storyline that is essentially ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]'' but with ''[[Zeta Gundam]]''-era mobile suits. Gets especially egregious when you fight the Black Tri-Stars...who have '''Psyco Gundams'''.
* [[Scoring Points]]: The Universal Century games were notoriously strict with their scoring system, due to ranking Accuracy and Evasion. The Cosmic Era games lightened things by restricting the score to number of enemies shot down, damage taken, and time remaining. Scoring high enough in any game in the series earns [[Nintendo Hard]] bonus stages.
* [[Self-Destruct Mechanism]]: In ''Alliance vs ZAFT II Plus''' P.L.U.S. Mode, an AI-controlled Athrun can attempt to perform the Aegis Gundam's self destruct grapple from the famous deathmatch between himself and Kira. In ''Gundam vs Gundam'', the player can perform the move on command. And of course, Wing Zero self destructs as part of its [[Victory Pose|Defeat Pose]].
Line 110 ⟶ 111:
* [[Terrible Trio]]: The Dom's assist in ''Gundam vs Gundam'' is the [[Combination Attack|Jet Stream Attack]].
* [[There Is No Kill Like Overkill]]: In ''Extreme Vs'', Wing Zero's [[Finishing Move]] is a three full-power Twin Buster Rifle shots in rapid succession, while the Double X's is a G-Falcon empowered Twin Satellite Cannon along with two GX-Bits firing ''their'' Satellite Cannons.
* [[The Same but More]]: ''Gundam vs Zeta Gundam'''s Universal Century Mode has an overarching [[What If]] story where Zeon's invasion of Jaburo succeeds; this leads to a storyline that is essentially ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]'' but with ''[[Zeta Gundam]]''-era mobile suits. Gets especially egregious when you fight the Black Tri-Stars...who have '''Psyco Gundams'''.
* [[Throwing Your Sword Always Works]]: The [[Mobile Suit Gundam|RX-78 Gundam]] (beam javelin), [[Mobile Suit Gundam Wing|Altron Custom]] (twin beam trident), [[After War Gundam X|Double X]] (hyper beam sword) and [[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Exia]] (beam daggers) in ''Gundam vs Gundam'' and ''NEXT''; Altron's functions like a [[Precision-Guided Boomerang]] while the other three stun the opponent. In ''Extreme Vs'', Char's Gelgoog has two different naginata throw moves, one identical to Altron's and another working like the RX-78's.
* [[Versus Title]]
