Acacia Sgt Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 https://store.steampowered.com/app/898750/Super_Robot_Wars_30/ I still can't believe this is happening. As a longtime fan of the series, this is... I can't even, it's practically a miracle. Seems to be the Steam version only. Then again, the PS4 and Switch versions can already be bought internationally via region-appropiate accounts, so I guess it makes sense. Although, I have my suspicions there could be some tweaks to at least the script. I already spot one thing that's changed from the English PV1 to the screenshots displayed on Steam. It could just be just a correction or for better display, but it makes me wonder. Regardless... A non OG SRW game is getting an official worldwide release!!! Come on, let's us fans celebrate this! And for nonfans, take this chance to learn about this SRPG game series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interdimensional Observer Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 As I've said before, I don't watch anime, mecha or not. However, the OG GBA games were a part of my childhood, I loved 'em! Recognizing the extraordinarily rare moment this is, if this isn't a fever dream, I'll buy this in support of the franchise. At full price even b/c the licensing nightmare means I'm concerned it might not stay international forever. I can't say I don't have a bone in my body that appreciates mecha, or flashy animations. I'll be an optimist for once and say it'll be fun for sure.😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acacia Sgt Posted July 14, 2021 Author Share Posted July 14, 2021 It's already in the Top Sellers category on Steam. Wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Pay no attention to the screaming coming from the west. I'll LP this one, too! Though how are they gonna handle two different versions of Mr. Original Gundam Pilot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRW is no stranger to this. Like how V has Hathaway's Gundam, but absolutely didn't used the plot of Hathaway's Flash at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acacia Sgt Posted July 17, 2021 Author Share Posted July 17, 2021 A look into the scope of just how big the SRW franchise is: SRW 30 is the 69th entry of the series. 69 games in 30 years. That's certainly a milestone, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I noticed they left out Masoukishin so it seemed, so the number is slightly higher than what was shown there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're probably only counting what constitutes as mainline SRW. The first Masoukishin game was literally a side-episode. Super Robot Wars Gaiden - Masoukishin. So perhaps they lumped the entire Masoukishin as its own thing, even separate from OGverse. Same probably why both Endless Frontier games aren't there. Or the fighting game Super Robot Spirits (the first time the SRX team and Levi showed up) isn't there either. I don't see SRW Gakuen in there either, which was more of a card game as well. Then again, some non-SRPGs are in there, like Link Battler. So... hmm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabulously Olivier Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 The lack of Gurren Lagann is disappointing, but this game looks great. I may get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
