SD Gundam G Generation Genesis
SD Gundam G Generation is a series of strategy-RPG video games that focus on the Gundam anime franchise. History The ''G Generation'' series technically began in 1996, when Bandai released a series of six games for Nintendo's Super Famicom console's Sufami Turbo add-on, each focusing on a particular era from the ''Gundam'' multiverse. ''A Generation'' focused on the One Year War, ''B Generation'' focused on the Gryps Conflict, and so forth up to ''F Generation'', which covered the plot of ''G Gundam''. Instead of continuing the obvious progression and making a ''G Generation'' game themed about ''Gundam Wing'', Bandai held on to the title.

When it was finally released in 1998 for the PlayStation, ''G Generation'' covered the plot for ''Mobile Suit Gundam'' through ''Char's Counterattack'' and featured characters from the remaining Universal Century series a ...

Tactical Role-playing Game

Likewise, early tabletop role-playing games are descended from skirmish wargames such as ''Chainmail'', which were primarily concerned with combat. Game design This subgenre of role-playing video games principally refers to games which incorporate elements from strategy video games as an alternative to traditional role-playing game (RPG) systems.

Canon (fiction)
In fiction, canon is the material accepted as officially part of the story in an individual universe of that story by its fan base. It is often contrasted with, or used as the basis for, works of fan fiction. The alternative terms mythology, timeline, universe and continuity are often used, with the first of these being used especially to refer to a richly detailed fictional canon requiring a large degree of suspension of disbelief (e.g. an entire imaginary world and history), while the latter two typically refer to a single arc where all events are directly connected chronologically. Other times, the word can mean "to be acknowledged by the creator(s)". Origin The use of the word "canon" originated in reference to a set of texts derived from Biblical canon, the set of books regarded as scripture, as contrasted with non-canonical Apocrypha. The term was first used by analogy in the context of fiction to refer to the Sherlock Holmes stories and novels, written by Sir Arthur Co ...
