Kamen Rider Battle: Ganbaride

Kamen Rider Battle: Gambaride (仮面ライダーバトル ガンバライド, Kamen Raidā Batoru Ganbaraido?, Masked Rider Battle: Ganbaride) is a combination of an arcade game and a collectible card game featuring the protagonists of the Kamen Rider Series. The game is being released as part of the 10th anniversary of the Heisei run Kamen Rider Series by Toei, TV Asahi, Ishimori Productions, and Bandai and features heavy tie-ins with the television series Kamen Rider Decade, whose protagonists use cards similar to those used in the game. It is played in a similar fashion to Sega's Mushiking and Dinosaur King games, and uses special Data Cardass cards released by Bandai. The game's card input resembles and functions similarly to the Decadriver in Decade.

Game cards
The game cards are divided between the Hero Cards (ヒーローカード, Hīrō Kādo?), colored red, and Special Cards (スペシャルカード, Supesharu Kādo?), colored yellow. Hero Cards are used during normal game play, and the KamenRide (カメンライド, Kamen Raido?) Cards are the first cards played choosing the player's primary and secondary characters. Other Hero Cards include the AttackRide (アタックライド, Atakku Raido?) Cards, used for performing actions such as kicks, slashes, or gunfire, and the FormRide (フォームライド, Fōmu Raido?) Cards, used for switching between different specialized forms (such as for Kuuga,  Den-O and  Kamen Rider Kiva). For players of Kamen Rider Decade, these Hero Cards work in a similar fashion to the KamenRide, AttackRide, and FormRide Cards used by the character in the television series.

Special Cards are much more powerful versions of the Hero Cards. The Final Ride (ファイナルライド, Fainaru Raido?) Cards are used to transform Heisei Kamen Riders into their most powerful forms. Final AttackRide (ファイナルアタックライド, Fainaru Attaku Raido?) Cards are used to initiate a player character's finishing move. Final FormRide (ファイナルフォームライド, Fainaru Fōmu Raido?) Cards are generally only used by players of Kamen Rider Decade, and are used to transform the secondary character into a form similar to those as found in the television series. There are also other Special Cards that simply add damage during play.

Each card also has an attribute that in a rock-paper-scissors-like system, determines which card has an advantage over the other. Speed (速, Hayasa?) cards have an advantage over Power (力, Chikara?) cards, which have an advantage over Technique (技, Waza?) cards, which have an advantage over Speed cards.

Game play
After the player chooses a primary and secondary Kamen Rider, the game play begins by revealing the opponent's characters and then beginning a two-wheel slot machine that is stopped by using two of the buttons on the console. When the wheels stop, they produce two numerical values that are added together. The player with the higher value attacks. The icon of the slot results (a fist, a sword, a boot) determine the type of attack. Matching icons result in double attacks for higher damage. Once the damage is dealt, the round ends. In between rounds players are given the option to use a special card, pass the turn, or perform a finishing attack. Finishing attacks require a third button on the console to be pressed at specific moments during the animation in order for the move to be successful. Whoever has the most health at the end of the game, if not having completely eliminated the opponent's health bar, wins.
