They are traditionally EXTREMELY slow to adapt new hardware and tend to pick a "focus" console with each generation while other consoles get B-Team experimental games, so I would be surprised to see a real high effort SRW on Switch. Moon Dwellers was the first PS4 SRW, and it was a cross-port of a PS3 game, and it came out in 2016, 3 years into the PS4's life cycle. Hell, OGs2nd was the first PS3 game and it came out in 2012, 6 years into the PS3's life cycle. That said, B-Team experimental games can own extremely hard, because Neo exists. e: The lack of an actual new handheld console in production might skew this, since the Switch is the closest thing to a "new" handheld we have right now. They might put their previous handheld efforts towards Switch games.

Part of the slow-to-adopt thing has been declining console sales in Japan, but both the PS4 and Switch are selling gangbusters like we havent seen since the PS2, I wouldnt be surprised if they eventually ditch the VITA versions for Switch versions.

Anyway, I feel like people might be reading my statement as "SRW will never have a Switch game until it's super late" but it's really supposed to be "The Switch will probably have an SRW game at some point of time, but it won't specifically be a port of SRW X"

They have always been pretty slow to adopt new technology. The first fully original PSX game(Shin SRW) came out 2 years after the PSX's release, and Impact didn't come out until 2 years after the PS2 and had a lot of reused/retouched assets and was itself a remake of an older game. SRW W came out 3 years after the DS's release and had a cast list largely ported from J. It's just a thing with Banpresto, it seems.

Virtual On sticks are coming back, care of a Japanese health and fitness company that apparently specializes in weight scales? Looking at this article, the president of the company is a big Virtual On fan and this is a personal project or something.KoB posted:SRW games have been yearly for a little while now. Well yeah but Kanos posted:They have always been pretty slow to adopt new technology.

So next year's will still be PS4/Vita and people'll still be asking where the Switch version is.

Play-Asia is doing a Lunar New Year Sale and a bunch of Asian English SRW/mecha games are on sale right now. SD Gundam G Generation Genesis (PS4): $34.99 USD Super Robot Wars V (Vita): $49.99 USD Super Robot Wars OG: The Moon Dwellers: $33.99 USD Gundam Breaker 3 (Vita): $39.99 USD Gundam Breaker 3 Break Edition (PS4): $52.99 USD The Vita version of SD Gundam G Generation Genesis is listed on the sale page but there's no sale price in effect and the PS4 version of Super Robot Wars V is not on sale, probably because it's been on back order for a few weeks now.

Since they are probably going to announce the originals tomorrow what are people’s predictions? I’m going with physical based super copiloted by a princess.

# ? Feb 18, 2018 12:18 |

female knight with a melee based real, prince with a ranged based super. protag choice but they both join early and their routes are essentially the same. one of the mechs will have a dragon motif.

I think we're going to have two choices. The female will have a skimpy outfit for no reason, and will pilot a range based robot. The male is going to have stupid hair and pilot a melee based robot.

I think they might do a V again and only have a single base mech (maybe a super this time?) that you get a upgrade choice with 2/3rds through the game to turn into an even badder suit of magiarmor or turn into ninja bullshit. No real storyline difference either.

Are we guessing what will happen or saying what we want to happen? Because in the latter case, I want to choose from 4 robots, Alpha-style, that are basically a fighter, wizard, priest, or thief. They get mid-game upgrades to knight, sorceror, paladin, and rogue. In the former case:Zore posted:I think they might do a V again and only have a single base mech (maybe a super this time?) that you get a upgrade choice with 2/3rds through the game to turn into an even badder suit of magiarmor or turn into ninja bullshit. For characters, I think we're all expecting high school students who were transported from Earth seconds before one of them could ask the other out on a date. They're childhood friends and one is fun & sporty while the other is cool & intelligent. Right?

I can see "male or female protagonist, the one you pick pushes the other out of the way of a speeding truck and ends up in magic super robot land."

Because of the Real Heavy line up I'm hoping we get the option of a really nice Super. Choice of male or female MC. I predict another Nine/Falsaber thing where the mech has a personality but this time its possessed by a wizard or something.

I'm gonna go long odds. Full NEO. Male protag brought in as a Defender and winds up in a special robot. Female protagonist/rival native to Al Warth joins at some point.

Probably throw in Judau as the wacky sidekick, Haman Karn as the under-appreciated secretary and, of course, Haro as the pet.

Yeah, not really feeling the MCs on this one, but I like the male design and theme music better. This is kind of different because I gravitated towards Chitose immediately in V (and only liked her more the farther I went into V). Also, looks like Glemy is back. Unless they're just going to revive dead villains/write it so he survived after ZZ, are they going to go through ZZ story? If the latter, I demand a two-part Moon Moon Chapter.

I've wanted to punch Glemy with a lot of mechs for a long time so I'm digging the possibility of getting some ZZ. He'll fit right in with the other creepy dickhead antagonists we're getting from Buddy Complex and Cross Ange, what with his small force of cloned little girls and all.

I believe they actually talked about how Char / Nightingale wasn't originally going to be shown in the PV but it was mandated (probably to lure people who didn't like that he was gone in V) and he's supposed to be a secret, so barring some really weird handling, there's probably going to be some amount of CCA plot. Or maybe they meant just the unit is a secret, I dunno.
