I appreciate you guys for liking the compilation! Make sure to like and comment so that I know to create more content like this. It really helps the channel and myself to know what people want more of.
Yeah, I love Mecha Anime and these games are a dream come true. I just wish we can get some more translated versions even though most people just play to make their dream teams and not so much for whatever weird plot they use. Glad it brought back memories for you.
I played SRW 4 first. Didnt know any japanese then and even now bit i was still able to finish it. It just blew my mind how all these franchises were in 1 game. A few years later i played the recent alpha games and saw wing zero in action, which was absolutely bad ass. This frachise will always have a place in my heart
What's most important to me in RPG are Story and Progression, so I have harder time enjoying the game if I can't read, even more so cause I would also need to understand what the skills does otherwise it's just a guessing game. That being said... I guess I was less strict with myself when I was a kid cause back than I also played alot of Japan only SRW games, SRW W was one of them, and I'm glad after 15 whole years there's finally a fan full English Translation for that game. Lol XD
Didn't know Unicorn plot appeared in NEO on Wii. You know, when only first OVA was dropped and Neo Zeong wasn't even planned. I am pretty sure that is supposed to be V.
You missed out the DS and PSP remakes of Super Robot Wars OG Saga: Masou Kishin The Lord of Elemental and using footage from Super Robot Wars V for Super Robot Wars Neo? Abit of an odd choice. Like D180223 mentioned be sure to credit those who's footage use and if you're gonna do a list of the games, at the very least do them in release order since Original Generations on PS2 came out 6 months before OG Gaiden.
I didn't see Super Robot Pinball among them... Also, isn't it weird that for a series that eventually gained super smooth animation it NEVER had a fighting game?
Yap, too bad in the later years of the series, the ones that were release in the USA had several anime taking out of it, notably Macross due to licensing issues. Still, super fun.
wow the music is great even from the oldest. Congrats on the 30 years, though SRW30 is at the end of 2021. Did get SRWT so I can be Spike Spiegel. 1:10 lol wonder if intersex baron ashura would be cancelled today lol. 2:07 let it hit those tytties lol
I friggin hate how banpresto doesnt release most of super robot games outside japan. I grew up smoking original generation 1 and 2 on gba and still smoke them to this day
@@Retronomicon Japanese really don't believe in sharing is caring. They keep most good games to japanese audience and then they drop them when they don't get the sales they wanted.
SRW look super interesting! Combining many mech franchises into one is a genius move. By the way, what is up with the thumbnail and who is the girl in it? it confuses me.
Is there a way to play the English translations easily? I do have a 3ds and a Vita as well but this series is a lot to dive into now that i've been looking into it. Currently playing OG saga frontier on ds =) (my first but this series looks great)
Anyone has any specific recommendation for these games? I can't play 60+ games of the same saga and I'm mostly interested in the ones that include Evangelion and Code Gueass
They are, if you mean the English ones. Just be sure to upgrade your mechs and pilots. If you use the main heroes and their skills, the game isn't really hard and for the most part pretty straight forward.
Yah, I started to add them in future videos. Lots of them are on the SNES early on. Most of the later games are on playstation consoles. If you ever really want to know, just look up the title and it shouldn't be hard. Most are Japanese only due to licensing issues.
oops, you are right. I missed them and got the wrong video for neo. Must've gotten mixed up when I did half of the videos then came back weeks later to finish it.
I just want a proper English translation of the complete box (SRW2, SRW3, SRW EX) F, F Final, Alpha Saga, A Portable, Impact and MX. All of those that were made with pixelart, looks the best imho
SRW 2,3,EX, Alpha Gaiden, Portable A have completed English translation also J, W, OG (PS2) have English translation with older graphic. Once you play few of them menu are the same and stories are in fan site so easy to follow, I bought all the official English sub games to support and got the rest of other games thru emulation.
@@AkagiRedSun i know man, i just want the complete box translation cause the QoL improvements, and OC i want a complete translation of my fav being the whole Alpha and Z sagas, and maybe OG Gaiden too xD, not fan of current SRW games, just the PS1-PS2-PSP-PS3 games, and not from others consoles like the GC, GBA or SFC
All that work and love and you chose the gameplay with an horrible filter for Super Robot Taisen OG on GBA ! Aaaaargh ! Well it's disappointing but the rest is so awesome that i don't care that much.
Not many, the latest ones are coming out in English though. The older ones for the nes/snes etc... have rom translations. The problem is the licensing issues with all the different series of Anime. Especially with Macross.
Did you mean from? It is from the end of the video. One of the last games is a mobile app game that you collect characters. One of them being that version of the character.
@Shadow Bringer I may have to update this sometime down the road. I was working off a list I found and it may not have had all the games after a 2019. I also messed up with one of the games an earlier comment mentioned (wrong video for game). I actually ran out of room on one hard drive with all the footage I got and then got a new hard drive like a month later so the videos were split into different folders, not fun.
@@Retronomicon The release order of the latest console games is V -> X -> T. But then V and X(but not T) came out on PC, which kinda complicated things.
@@Cyril86 Yeah, while looking for information on how to do this list it became confusing because of things like that. There were remakes and releases with different years and dates, some of them overlapped so I couldn't find the month of release in the same year. 60+ games gets confusing after a while.
Not many at all, most are fan translated from the SNES era down. Some PSX ones have been translated too. There are some new ones that have come out to PC that are in English though. A lot of it is just licensing issues with the Anime's involved. You wont be seeing any official Macross featured games coming out here in English. The "right's holder" for that in the US are scumbags.
@@Draga-js1hd Yah, Super Robot Taisen: Original Generations on the PS2 has an english patched version but as far as the other versions, I don't think there are any english ones. I think there is a patched OG one for the dreamcast as well. You can in a very tedious way use OCR to translate, but good luck with that.
Not sure, since a lot of it are renditions of the music from the anime. Which makes it a nightmare to record and put on youtube due to copyright issues.
You know, I am not sure. It was hard finding footage for that game when I was searching. I need to update this anyway since some more games have come out.
Yeah, I missed a few games. I was working on a list that apparently didn't have everything. I may update it down the line when a new game comes out and add what I missed. They have made so many games that I am sure there are some so obscure that I will miss again, haha.
@@Retronomicon SRW Z3 (25:46), SRW Remake (27:08) and X Omega (28:06). Have the decency to credit the people you took the footage from or else I am going to strike your video down for using other people's footage without even crediting them.
@@180223 Thanks for reaching out. Added credits in description with link to your channel for the mentioned clips. The first 2 you mentioned are clips from the game owned by Bandai Namco who own the rights, and the last one features gameplay which can be considered fair use. Either way, we are both fans of the games and I would rather keep this friendly than go straight into legal takedown notice mode, that's mean.
I don't understand why they can't make these mechas to looks normal size, instead of that damn chibi look. Is disgusting and lazy. The only time they look normal size are in those super robot taisen OG Saga RPGs. They looks so badass there, but heck, in the rest of the games they look like generic chibi garbage.
Not sure why, I would guess it may have had something to do with memory being limited on the early hardware, but then again they are just 2D images so I guess it wouldn't matter. I agree though, I would like it more if they weren't Chibified.
"Chibi" is normalized these days but this game was among the unique one using chibi look that time. Nowadays of course it seems "lazy" but the truth is they just stucked with what works. Maybe the title u mentioned was a flop based on market review, hence why they stick with chibi back.
Many reasons, it was an aesthetic choice at the time the series started, also literally copyright reasons regarding some franchises like Gundam where they had a literal SD lineup fror their franchise and not being possible to use the real sizes until SRW shin where they looked awful, also it helped make the job of working on animations for every unit which is why the series was well known at the time which is a hard thing to for every unit in the series, in fact the their proportions have been closer to their normal size over the years and they look fine in the current games. The OG Saga RPGs are made by a different studio with a very different budget, with a very different playstyle in mind, also most of the characters not being tied to a license as well.
@@H4rdlex Also not to mention, the series originated on the Game Boy (whose screen wasn't big enough to properly to display realistic sprites. Me, personally? I dig the SD look and pretty much got used to it.
