''Windy X Windam'' is a FightingGame developed by Success Corp. and Ninja Studio, with its main claim to fame being the inclusion of Izuna and Shino from ''VideoGame/IzunaLegendOfTheUnemployedNinja''.

It takes place on a remote island kingdom called Gawain, a place where people empowered with devices called "Windies" are given the ability to fly. Seven fighters, along with a mysterious "eighth" malefactor, have assembled for a tournament, wherein the winner will have his/her one greatest wish granted. Aside from the flight and special attacks granted by their devices, the fighters also have the ability to transform (for a very brief period of time) into a more powerful form.

The game was released in Japan in the summer of 2008 by Success Corp., while it was given a very limited release in the U.S. by Graffiti Entertainment two years later, available only through online retailers.
