habu himself in an interview said bandai gave him basically 0 budget for redgiitze on psp, so he had to make do with the world data squad models. its possible he had them remade for the decode remaster as he said after it did really well they boosted his budget (and decode was his original ambition for the game). he also sad he was struggling for models in cyber sleuth, so resued a bunch from decode but that heroes and collectors made more money than excepted so he was able to make some extra models from that. he then added that in the media vision office (cyber sleuth devs) there were some digimon super fans, who really wanted to make a bunch of models cuz they like digimon so he ended up with more than expected (prob where stuff lik blackkingnumemon came from lol). also recently he said someone he works there with is a massive digimon anime fan so makes sure the attack animations match the anime (for anime digimon). thats probably why alphamon has green beams, lucemon throws planets etc. the psp version of redigitze looks really really bad in all honesty.

also i once emailed media vision telling them that they made an error with kudamons dot spirte and they replied saying they cant do anything about it because they were sent those by bandai. so it just seems like the models and what not, even though they appear to have been made by media vision (the cyber sleuth new ones anyway) are owned by bandai and they have to do as theyre told for that (explains all the reuse I suppose. also makes me curios if bandai choose who gets added to games, because links and masters added the same x forms at the same time, tho with different models)

american original games:

fusion fighters

rumble arena 2 (made by a candaian company, but released in japan interestingly enough. reverse all star rumble, which was made by a japanese company but released only in the west)

and uh, I think that's it.

Battle/RPG would count under Tamers I guess, as it uses the tamers cast and universe. (and is still up on korea... and as far as i could tell, movegames do battle as well now lmfao)

masters would be data squad, as it takes place in that unvierse with the data squad cast. (and is pre merukimon death, because he is an npc in the ice wall area) ...theyve recently muddled this though due to shoehorning in the adventure cast and the advetnture real world... (with the myotismon story arc) so now the game lets you run from adventure 1999 odaiba, to 2006 data squad's digital world. that makes 0 sense. its still masters as a base though, the adventure content was a dlc expansion. still makes no sense.

anyway I still don't think links and RA should be part of the story series, though that placement just puts them on top of the misc games so its basiclaly the same thing I Guess.

i personally prefer misc games to be in release date order. i just have survive after rearise, with links nad survive following the rest of the games (and vpets being after the games for the few pages that have vpet content). where are we putting survive? the closest gameplay is the wonderswan games, but its not an anime game. youre not wrong that links is just a rip off of cyber sleuth though, that was a super lazy game. they did that opening scene, then literally nothing until the final two weeks storyline wise. rearise is doing well enough... though it seems like the season two they announced has been cancelled in place of monthly DFQs (unless season 2 suddenly happens, but its been like 6 months since they announced season 2, so *shrug*). links and RA still arent habu games tho, but im assuming hell be taking all their models for the next story game. (also possible his staff made them and gave them to the mobile staff)
