Super Robot Wars A Portable - Image 1


How many of you folks would like to get your hands on Super Robot Wars A for your beloved Sony handheld? Quite a lot, I see. Well, you're just in luck, cause good ol' Banpresto has just announced that yes, they will indeed be sending this title to your PSPs.

*Hip-hips and hoorays!* Now, what may we expect from this GBA original once it lands on the PSP? There's the refurbished graphics and animation, for one. Oh, and how about that cool new voice over in the battlescreens, eh? Unfortunately, we'll have to wait until more details come out regarding this game.

But fret not. We've all got some more time before Super Robot Wars A Portable hits retail stores: June 19th for Japan, in fact (Uh-oh! No North American date yet?). In the meantime, we suggest you keep it posted here for more updates. You might also want to check out the official site while you're at it. Head on over to Banpresto's website for the game through our Via link.

» what the heck...

If this looks like anime when it comes out, im gonna ***** myself.



As a side note...



Aren't there any good AMERICAN or EUROPEAN games out there? It seems the entire psp scene is dominated by those anime-style RPG's, and new ones bombard the market every week. I mean, they were fun at first, but when they outwiegh the rest of the games 10-1, it gets repetitive.



It seems other nations are focusing on next gen consoles, such as PS3. While all the Japanese companies are focusing on this. I have nothing against Japanese ppl, but it would be nice to mix it up once in a while...

I will have to agree. Like all great games that are released in Japan.. and never see the light of day in the US.

Sad, but true. Still, Banpresto's SRW: Original Generation series was ported with an English release sometime after by Atlus so we can always expect that particular series to reach European and North American shores.



I've always lived in the deluded dream that they'll make English translation of all the past SRW titles I've played. :(

» SRW A Portable

Oh, and just as added FYI, SRW A Portable is actually a port of the first SRW title released on the GBA. The two main characters from Super Robot Wars Advance are featured on the site as well as some scans from Famitsu's 1000th issue.

Sad, but true. Still, Banpresto's SRW Original Generation series did get an english translation from Atlus after a while so fans can always rely on that particular series for their SRW fix.



I've always lived in the delusion that Banpresto will finally sell the rights to SRW so english devs can make a local port of all the previous SRW titles i've played. XD

Negitive...



They are already working on the PS4 SDK to get

a heads up on Microsoft for next time around.



They have already sent the PS4 SDK out to

several publishers.



Apparently the PS3's not going to be a 10yr

like the PS2 was a 7yr. and the shelf life of

these systems are going to continue to drop

as the manufacturers are constantly working

on the next models.



While SONY releases the PS3 they are also

working simultaneousnes slly on PS4 + 5

After all it take a while to build, test + debug

a sys.

SRW OG was pretty awesome on the GBA. I hope that new DS one comes out in english, if only for KOS-MOS.
