According to the ANN Encyclopedia, Gundam started in 1979, while Macross started in 1982.

I'll confirm...I remember when they both came out. Macross came out after the first Gundam series (Mobile Suit Gundam). In fact, all 43 episodes (of MSG) aired 2 years before Macross came out.

There are a lot of Gundam games made that never hit the US shores (quite a few that ran on the Famicom, Super Famicom, Playstation and Playstation 2)...you can also count the number of macross and robotech games on your two hands. So to compare the games from those series would be sorta unfair.
As far as English versions of "Gundam" and "Robotech/Macross"...that's really based on opinion. I'm leaning towards Robotech:Battlecry cause you have variable mecha in a variety of environments.
But that's my opinion.
