I just want to see Klim Nick, noted genius, get combo attacks with Bellri. Failing that, Aida and Bellri. Hell, I just want to see other Gundam characters react to Klim, since he's pretty much the greatest. :allears:

I hope Build Fighters never shows up. SRW is way into unironic ridiculous large-scale spectacle and Build Fighters is into something wonderful but very different. Even assuming they could exposit their way in (and I believe it, SRW is shameless), everything lovable about the show would end up even worse off than Dai-Guard.

(I mean, I love Dai-Guard as a unit, and Akagi has some good character moments, but honestly.)

Series I really wish would be in a good SRW:
- R-Type
- Star Wars
- Megaman (any and/or all of them)
- Xenogears/Xenosaga
- The forgotten Gundam Series (Original, F91, Victory, etc.)
- G-Reco (almost certainly getting in eventually)

And others that I can't remember right now but I'll totally go "Oooooh, yes!" when someone mentions it.

I like Star Wars as much as the next guy, but what units would the have? X-wings and TIE fighters and poo poo? If were talking about fantasy lists, then obviously Transformers would be the ultimate series to get added

The Death Star turns into a massive robot ala Unicron with Palpatine at the head and Darth Vader as his sub-pilot.

Darth Vader could also be a recruitable. He could come in the TIE Advanced x1.

The Millennium Falcon could have Han Solo as it's main pilot in ship mode, but turn it into Robot Mode, and it becomes Chewbacca's thing, where it's more Super than Real.

My ideas are horrible.

Like everyone else in this thread, I've got my own SRW game that I would do. Super Robot Taisen X. It would mostly follow the Xenogears story while merging every other factions with Solaris/Shevat, kinda like in Z2 with the three Empires. The featured series would be:
- Xenogears
- SDF Macross (the original, they were guarding the Eldridge, you unfreeze them or something)
- Megaman Legends 1&2 (the western half of the Xenogears map is all water)
- Gundam X
- G Gundam (Master Asia and Grahf would be working together and it would be great)
- Votoms (to spcie up the Kislev section)
- Xabungle
- Turn A Gundam
- King Gainer
- Big O (Paradigm City would be merged with Zeboim)

You could maybe squeeze in a couple more, but that's already a pretty good list. You'd choose between two characters, a real and a super, as usual. Real would start with Garrod saving Tiffa merged with Elly stealing Weltall from a Kislev base, with Real-MC being a mercenary. The path would merge early Xenogears with X and maybe Xabungle, until reaching Kislev where Votoms and maybe Gainer would enter. Super would be a super prototype with mysterious amnesiac pilot found on an island by the Megaman Legends crew, and then you'd have the entirety of Legends 1 with G Gundam and Turn-A thrown in. Then the two parts merge when you get to the Thames, where the Gundam Fight Finals take place (it'S the only location badass enough). Then the Legends 2 storyline would start afterward, with all the crazy poo poo from Xenogears and the other series merged in. Original bad guy would be working with Krelian to do somethign evil using Deus, who would be the Final boss.

I spend too much time thinking about anime robots.

Yeah, they might not be able to fit the GBF plot, but the units as bonuses would be amazing.

If they don't want to make every series model sized all they have to do is make all of the models into suits in some sort of mobile suit fighting league and call all the builders mechanics or engineers. Characters can still sperg out about meeting the famous suits used by other Gundam characters and everything.

Well, if Macross doesn't count, but the Nadesico sure comes to mind...

And Fighter Planes is a bit unfair. They usually don't show up at all. The three I can remember are the generic Jets from OG1, which were good mostly because OG1 is really low-powered, Blue Earth (Tekkaman) from J/W which was good support if you upgraded them and Build Angel (Shin Jeeg) from K/L which was also pretty good.

I don't know, put in high-powered "planes" like Galaxy Angels into SRW and I'm sure they'll get a bunch of fans.

Galaxy Angel has a legit robot, it's just piloted by the boy Angel team instead of the girls. And it's not very interesting.

If we could get Xenogears couldn't we also get Front Mission?

Also I'll throw Gunparade March onto the pile. It'd match up great with stuff like Fullmetal Panic and Code Geass in a 'high schoolers caught up in robot hijinks' way.

That would be nice, though we'd miss out on half the fun since they don't do the interchangeable weapon loadouts int he main series of games. And definitely not the Torso/Arms/Legs loadout. Unless they make interchangeable weapons a gimmick for just the Front Mission units.

Front Mission would probably be good for really basic grunt units but that's about it. You could probably get a little mileage out of the M.I.D.A.S. but then again pretty much every near-future mecha anime these days has their own "like a nuke, but not" sort of weapon. Maybe slap the Hoshun Mk112 as an unlockable suit as that's the only Wanzer that I know of with a beam weapon.
