GameSpot has learned that Genki will announce three new games during the upcoming Tokyo Game Show. One is a racing game with the working title Touge Battle that is currently in development for the GameCube. It is not known at this time whether the game will have anything in common with Genki's Shutoku Highway Battle (Tokyo Xtreme Racer in the US). A release date and price point have not been disclosed at this time.

The second game, which goes by the working title Phantom Crash, is scheduled to appear on the Xbox. Players pilot a comical mech named "Scooby" that is equipped with a cloaking device. Players must battle against enemy mechs to earn reward money. The money can in turn be used to buy new parts and weapons to customize the mech. The game is scheduled for a spring 2002 release.

The third title is still unannounced, but check back for GameSpot's coverage of the Tokyo Game Show beginning Thursday night.
