GN Version 5.0

As we mentioned earlier in the week, a collection of never-released iQue GBA games popped up, all in prototype form. Among the collection was Advance Wars, which dataminers have been pouring through to see if there were any notable changes. Here's the list of differences they've come up with so far.

- Kanbei had his mustache and beard removed
- Kanbei no longer has his Katana
- Kanbei's uniform was changed
- instead of Orange Star fighting Kanbei’s Imperial Forces, this version has Red Star fighting Kanbei’s Special Forces
- in the Western version, Kanbei believes he is a modern samurai
- in the Chinese version, Kanbei thinks he’s a modern Zhang Fei
- Kanbei's winning expression has been changed
