I took a drink of water each time... and still wound up drunk, that's how badass it is XD
Clicky clicky.
I ordered it via your link ages ago. I need to buy some ¥ to get the DLC, as it has SRX-001 from the OG. I’m hoping they release Super Robot Wars OG the Moon Dwellers next ✊🏽
I ordered it via your link and coupon thx
@switchwatch. I used your link and ordered SRW30 for my switch. In order for me to download the dlc, do I need to make a Japanese switch account to do that? Says it doesn't work on my USA account
I started out on expert mode. A lot of times my hit rates hover in the 60 percent range, and that's kinda awesome. Making me use my resources carefully and position carefully can be fun.
It was disappointing to hear him say “it’s easy” 4 separate times, then hear him say he only plays on standard.
I got this on the pc been having a blast being able to finally play an srw game, then proceeded to accidentally give Ernie enough power parts, upgrades and skills to be able to move 15 tiles, have 100% accuracy, and 70% crit chance, now he is an ace with an additional 20% damage, evasion and accuracy. also very flashy attack that does over 15k damage. Ive created a monster that cannot miss, get hit and almost crits all the time. i hope there is no such thing as mind control in this series XD
Lol one of the things I love about this series is they know people have favorites so they let you pump all your goodies into your favorites if you want.
Fully upgraded Cybuster is my go-to when I just want to sweep a bunch of enemies and make a boss look like a bumbling imbecile, preferably on my first turn.
I'm just here for Gundam.
First time to see super robot wars. Didn’t even know it looked this good and played this great. Crazy how this has been existing for years! Thanks for the recommendation man. Would grab this! :)
All the recent games are on Amazon for PS4 and switch (English subs) all relatively cheap
Spike's impossible to beat 🤣
Ive been looking forward to this review from the moment this was announced.
Spike was an inspired addition in T
Bro, the older games from super famicom, sega Saturn and PlayStation 1 and 2 are some of the hardest in the series without action replay cheats. I really appreciate that the last few entries gave us the option to play easy mode for those who just want to enjoy the story and interaction among the different series.
I am also surprised that Gridman and Ultraman make their debut in this entry which hopefully Bandai/Namco will give a chance to create a new game based on live action super heroes like kamen rider, super sentai using the SRW engine although I know in the past they tried to do it in previous consoles with little success.
Majestic Prince is an underrated series which I recommend to watch as this cast of pilots are the least emo characters unlike many real robot pilots who suffered ptsd or other issues.
Just got the physical game today and will be spending my weekend playing it! Cheers!
Hey, i don’t know if you will read this but, i’am new to this series rn, i’am playing ogmd but already have V,X, and 30 on my steam which i planned to play after ogmd. I see so many people kinda dissapointed with this game (i don’t know if it’s many, or i’am just unlucky to see all the bad comments at once) but, i want to hear your overall thoughts about this game.
I also wouldn't mind if they decide to make one rally gigantic game with every playable character and mecha from all the one games thrown in with a bunch of new ones added in.
I wish this and the others were available on the Switch NA store. I'd grab them in a heartbeat.
Loved this awesome review. This got me super pumped for this game and the other super robot wars games on the switch 🤖
🤖
It’s great to see and hear your true passion for this series. Nice review Jordan 🤖
Thanks bud! Love the series!
Preordered mine yesterday. Can't wait!
Hope it arrives quickly!
I first found your channel when I looked up SRW and then this channel introduced me to the world of Asia English imports. Now I have a nice little collection of tactical mecha RPGs and classic PS1 era games on my Switch so thanks... but also damn you because my backlog has gotten fatter and my wallet thinner ever since I started getting imports lol j/k.
We’re all in the same boat 😂
This would be my first ever import purchase. I can't wait for it to come in.
Enjoy buddy!
If you buy the physical port can you get access to the dlc without a specific regional account?
So for the dlc would I purchase it on a Japanese account and it'll auto switch to English when I play?
I just want to pilot a zaku on my switch. Also your reviews are consistently incredible.
*sees 4 Scramble in the background*
Finally getting into the classic games of this series, eh?
Super Robot Wars used to be a little bit harder.
Yes. I will be getting this. I'm still playing X right now and I'm enjoying it. Great review. You got a sub!!!!
Thanks matey!
Which entry would you recommend between SRW T, X and 30? (I already own the other recent entries but wanted to buy a new one for my new Switch)
This game is on sale from Steam until March 21st if anyone wants to pick it up! Pretty good discount too
Excited to buy this game it's been so long since I have played a unique one like this!
Best game of October! Absolutely love SRT! Great vid, Jordan!
Thanks matey
Thanks for the video. I returned most of my physical copies and then re-bought those digitally because digital copies help me switch between software faster. I found that software that I only had physical copies for were played the least due to the delay.
Looks like a fun SRPG! Really want to get into this series. 🤖
Its worth picking up at least one 😊
@@SwitchWatch Yeah definitely, might go with SRW V in order of the Switch release.
I've finished V and currently halfway through X (the story is meh, but the gameplay is good). Once I've finished all 3 VXT, will definitely be getting this..! This looks so good..🤤
If you do that you might permanently miss out on the early edition content.
I absolutely love your super robot reviews
Thanks beast!
Yea he definitely has the best SRW Switch reviews
oh can't wait for my copy of SRW30 to be arrived.
Been playing SRW T , V and X.
and seriously , I FREAKING LOVE THOSE GAMES
Excellent! Hope it arrives soon 🤞
I just bought a physical copy of this game for my switch but I can't download the dlcs. Somehow the eshop won't open whenever I make an attempt. Can anyone help?
You will need to use a Japanese eShop account
My copy should be arriving soon and I can't wait to play it!!!
Hope it arrives soon!
Can somebody please help me how do I download and buy the DLC for the switch version of this game every time I put in the code it doesn't work
Try setting up a Japanese eShop account and inputting it there 👍
I’ve been looking all over to find out if the Japanese physical copy has English, so I appreciate you breaking it down!
Glad to help 😊
Are the Sakura Wars Koubus available in the Nintendo Switch physical version of the game from PlayAsia, or is it a DLC that would require an Asian Nintendo Switch account?
Sakura is a dlc and not available yet
You need to make a Japanese account.
@switchwatch if I buy the asia version of this game I should have no problem playing it on the US switch?
No problem at all bud! The only problem would be the Chinese version as that’s the one that doesn’t have English
@@SwitchWatch I think Amazon has the jp version with English subs
@@SwitchWatch should I make a jp account for the dlc or is a US account ok
i'll be picking this one up for sure
Oooo yeah!
I wish I'm into these type of games. The design of the robots is so eye candy 🤩🤩🤩
If you dislike SRPG's, this series isn't going to win you over. But if you enjoy the style and love mecha, you were born to play this series.
Now I'm just waiting for my copy on PS4 to arrive while I play the older games and definitely used y'all's code to get it. Literally just beat V today and jumped on T right after.
Epic! T might be my favourite of the bunch along with this one
Sigh. I know you just let us know about these great physical imports and you aren't forcing me to purchase anything. But I do think Jordan is single-handedly responsible for my import addiction 😂 thank you again for a great review of a game that looks essential to the switch tactical RPG library 🤖
I’m pretty sure this is the reason we’re not growing. Everyone is sick of us spending their money 😂
@@SwitchWatch 😂 I need to unsub to save my money. But I'm going with what you said in the Q&A: the games I buy are my retirement plan, so subbing to you is basically a 401k... right...?
@@SwitchWatch you guys ticked up a digit.
@@bsolt978 100% true. That's what I tell myself. When my eyesight goes and motor skills are lost.
Waiting for mine love SRW..wish they would bring OG Dancouga back
Along with Dancouga Nova to do their combination attack.
Beast of a game. Got it digitally the ultimate edition. Superb on the switch oled :)
Sounds like heaven!
I got started on Super Robot Wars with the English translations of the O.G. games on the GBA
Ever since then, I've been a diehard fan following fan translations, anime adaptions, international releases, and the recent english translated games translated overseas.
You don't come to this series for strategy. You come because you are a mecha fanboy or there is one inside of you that this series is calling out to.
I think I’m definitely the latter 😅
@@SwitchWatch I've been a mecha fanboy since the force five programming block translated Gaiking, Grendizer, and Getter Robo back in the 80's. SRW is a series made by and for Mecha fanboys. The kind of fanboys that spin "wouldn't that be cool" scenarios in their heads and then get to actually make them a reality in these games. That makes this series an absolute joy for any mecha fan like myself.
Good old J and OG1 and OG2 in GBA is fun!
I start with R and D without English patch but they're still fun
Im quite excited for this 😋
Great vid. Did you heard anything about a physical Deluxe edition (just like they did with SD Gundam G Generation Cross Rays - Platinum Edition, which contains all DLC)?
SRW doesn’t do that.
This game looks awesome and might have to import this one 🤖
🤖💥🤖
Just got my imported copy on switch, it’s been a blast so far!!
Glad you’re enjoying it!
Don't know if I will get this, got so many SRPGs to play in my backlog, lol. Disgaea and Fire Emblem plus Luminious Arc 1 and 2 and Stella Glow. 🤖
i just got the physical but the dlc codes still dont work tried all regions for the eshop well it says the code expires in one year so hopingly it gets released on the shop soon
Which version did you get?
Hey! If you didn't notice it already.
I manage to use code on Japanese Account
And it work fine!! My physical copy is ASIA
Looks like V, X, T and 30 are available in English. Anybody have a recommendation on the best?
X is currently on sale on Hong Kong Eshop also T and 30 have demos but for whatever reason 30 is not in english for the HK version but is for Japanese version according to the vid but literally just found out about this series an hour ago as of commenting after trying to check out about a lesser mech game so I'm trying to see which is the better one myself and currently checking out the demo for SRW T. They all seem relatively similar tho except 2 are older ports X and V I think SW said.
30 is the newest tho. But after checking a ranking list they had V as higher than T and X but they are all good and pretty similar to one another from the sound of it. I think 30 is newest so it wasn't ranked at that time. But that list I saw has literally all of them which had a ps2 game as number 1 and a ps1 games as second best. V was 10th and highest among switch versions. But 30 is the newest followed by T.
@@MajorChipHazard316 Playing through V now and I can't believe its ranked so high.
Can't wait to get my copy! You know I paid for the fastest shipping possible from Playasia! Should have it in a few days!
I hope so bud! Have a great time with it!
@@SwitchWatch I will be thinking of you while I'm playing! I think I'm going to have to pick up that expensive music dlc pack also!
Do i need to play SRW T , V and X to enjoy this in terms of story narrative?
I dont think so
Im finally gonna get my copy tomorrow I cant wait to play this great game again :)
Woo! Enjoy!
I will super robot wars is one of my all time favorites been playing it since the gamebot days so seeing the series prosper like this and churn out new games every few years make more worth it to follow it
I saw CODE GEASS AND SS: GRIDMAN character sprites in this game.
As someone completely new to Robot wars,would you recommend this one or Robot wars V for first game?
I would say this one
I love gridman, ultraman and Sakura Wars and majestic prince series ⭐⭐⭐⭐
I’m a new fan 😆
Time for new members to join the gridman alliance!
I pre ordered it loooong time ago from Playasia, can’t wait
🙌
@@SwitchWatch what are your top 10 super robot wars games ?
Uhm… Is Burning/God Gundam in This one? I’d also like to know if Eva Unit 01 and Gurren Laggan are in the game as well
No to all 3.
Where do you get this on Switch ? It looks it's only available on PC/Steam
Japanese eShop or via the links below in the description
@@SwitchWatch thanks !
I need more game recommendations like this one for my switch that weren’t sold in the US, can anyone help ?
🤖🤖🤖 Looks cool! Great vid! I subbed
I gotta say, while I typically prefer locational damage and slower heavy and well armored mechs (think Battletech and Front Mission) I enjoyed this game, every now and then it feels nice to strategize slightly less and focus on mayhem and the show more.
I play it like I'm watching an anime.
But instead of watching the hero get beat down for 20min to become great for 10.
I just come out swinging.
Get In the robot .?
No bro I am the robot .
Full power from the start
which one should i buy the one that says Asia or the on that says japan
Either as long as it’s not the Chinese/HongKong one. The ones linked in the description will lead you to the correct ones
@@SwitchWatch good reply im buying now
But how is the performance? I know G Generations Crossrays had poor loading times and even frame rate drops.
This is perfectly fine 😊
I put this on my Steam wishlist last night.🤖
Sweet! Waiting for a sale?
Let me tell you Jordan, you are quite the pitch man! I am really not into strategy games, I even found myself bored and confused with Mario + Rabbids (if that's even considered a strategy game) BUT, you have me wanting to place a $300 order to PA for all of these games everytime you talk about them!
Quick question, is there any multiplayer in these? I'd love to make my brother blow all that money too. 😈 🤖
No multiplayer.
Great series and pre-ordered this a few months ago. Couldn't find a robot emoji so you got a printer instead 🖨
😂 that’ll do
Printers are peoples too
I am gettin' this game for the holiday!
Oh sweet!
Thank you for the review. Always great to watch you perform. I've never understood the mecha games but I think I understand better after your reviews. In my experience robots do a lot of welding and refill containers of stock so order-fillers can pick customer orders. These robots are a bit different than that I gather. My sister has a robot vacuum cleaner but she says it rarely uses its laser canons or missiles. One I found a robot in a friend's nightstand drawer...NEVER open a girl's nightstand drawer!🔋
So that's where they keep their super robot toys.
Bad bot
I got it is Asian. I made a Asian and Hong Kong profile. I bought the physical version. I can't get in the Nintendo eShop menu in the game. Please help
Japan should work 😊
With this review I think I now understand better what the game is about. I think I have seen Captain Future among the super heroes, as a kid I loved this TV show, especially with the German soundtrack. I am still not sure if it is something for me. I wonder why these Super Robot Wars games are so expensive, and there are no price drops. Maybe there is a demo, but I perhaps have to create a Japanese account for being able to access it.
Srw game is known to hold multiple expensive anime license.
Aside from the the great grandpa of mecha
Gundam Mazinga Getter which appear in every super robot series
The other might be expensive...
I admit I want the OLED, but I love Super Robot Wars as well. It's awesome!
Hi friend! How resgate the cod of DLC free do you know? Thx
From the Japanese eSHop
@@SwitchWatch Nice!! Thx
Time to relive my childhood via this game.
Definitely love me some robot battles
🤖 💥 🤖
I really enjoyed playing through all the Super Robot Wars games available on the Switch. What games with similar gameplay would you recommend I check out next?
SD gundam generation cross rays is pretty much srw with just non-uc gundams.
Can’t decide if I want to get this on PS5 or switch
most likely getting it on steam (since its easier) but mecha srpg on the go is extremely tempting
Steam is a lot more convenient this time around 😂
As soon as I can find £60 I’m hitting up your link to complete my set with V, X &T
Is that SD Gundam game an srpg too?
Also I love that I have found someone as nerdy for SRW as me! Yay! I’m not crazy!!
Yep! Very much similar games. SD aren't as cool in my opinion, but still very good.
Sd gundam is the same format but only setted in the gundam Universe. SRW is more open with different franchises.
the SD gundam G Genesis games are FAR more grindy that SRW. Similar style and presentation, but they are much more challenging and grind heavy as part of the gameplay loop is grinding to unlock your favorite Gundams and ship designs. In SRW, they are unlocked once you get to the required stage.
SD Gundam G Generation focuses on building and developing a personal army while retracing Gundam storylines. It excels in freedom and customization compared to Super Robot Wars' linear plot and limited playable units.
Should I pick this one up or T? I've never played any in the series.
Can’t go wrong with either 😊
Where can I find a list of all the mecha in the game??? And NO not the generic this series is in the game I mean an actual list of all the mechs in the game cause I’d like to know if there are other knightmare frames from code geass besides the ones from lelouch of the resurrection.
There's a list on Akurasu wiki, under Unit Acquisition Flow Chart. There are no other KMFs in SRW30 aside from the ones in Lelouch of the Resurrection because it's the only Code Geass work included.
EDIT: I forgot the Glorification compilation is listed here, too, but it has no plot used in scenarios for this game. It's listed as "units only" but it has no playable mecha exclusive to it.
@@PhailPhisher that’s honestly lame. The KMFs looked cool in the movie but nothing that really makes theme stand, at least there’s a bunch to work off of from R1 and R2, but I guess not for the game sadly.
It's a definitely buy! physical baby!
I really want to get the ultimate edition but it's so expensive!!
man, it would have been a blast if 30 had Gundam Wing or G
Gridman! Loved that show
Looks a lot of fun!
Can't wait for my copy!
Hope it arrives soon!
Probably getting a robot wars game using playasia coins too. 🤔
man i been want to have a oled switch i cant get one never lucky in my area still out of stock here if you choose me you make my day! perfect bday gift for me
Ughh man ...big big fan here. This is the first SRW I havnt been able to add to my collection since the GBA import. Recently got hit hard financially, so taking care of the family comes first.
Great review! I really enjoyed your last SRW Switch review. And I held off watching this because I didn't wanna get all down. But , im glad I just watched it! I'm replaying SRWT , and very content. Looking forward to getting this in the future!
does the switch version already includes the dlc or do we need to buy it also
You need to buy it, that’s why those super expensive editions exist
@@SwitchWatch oh i thought it was like the sd gundam that the switch version already included all
@@prowse321
SD Gundam games don’t have good dlc so they eventually pack it in with the game at a later time. SRW X and V only came with the dlc for the Switch because they are older games and the dlc added on made the purchase somewhat more worth it.
@@westonmeyer3110 soo you think it would be wise to get it at a later date? the only ones available in out place is the standard edition also sux that it isn't available on e-shop also
@@prowse321
The game will likely only get even more expensive with time like most SRW games do.
I'd play this but I haven't played 1-29
Why is this the only review we have of the game O.o Looking forward to dive into the game.
A lot of people overlook it
It's super easy to get everyone upgraded with all the free missions available
SRW easy??
did you play the old versions?
I'm 20 missions in and I love it
Wow! Blasting through it! How are you finding the difficulty? Have you played others in the series?
@@SwitchWatch been playing since yesterday morning lol and the difficulty has gone up a bit there's hidden missions on the map that are much more difficult. Also, there's a grade system to some missions, easiest being C rank and hardest being S rank
Yeah I was just curious since it feels more difficult than the past games, but I really don’t know if it’s just my imagination
@@SwitchWatch they definitely made it a little harder, i normally play in expert mode now it's much better
I wish they would release legacy collections of all the games onto every console to every part of the world with all of the dlc bundled with each game that came with it. For example, have every game boy and game boy advance games bundled together, every ps1 game together, all of the Ds games together, all of the Oc games together, all of the ps2, ps3, and ps4 games together, and T, X, and, V together with all of the dlc for them included.
That would be great as long as there’s English
@@SwitchWatch Yes it would be.
I want OG moon Dweller TT
That would be over 50 games, that is way too much.
@@westonmeyer3110 Well I primarily want the console games and most of the handheld ones. I don't really have interest in the mobile app games. Plus if other companies can pull it off, i fail to see why Namco Bandai can't do the same.
I would love to get into this series but they're just way too expensive.
Sure! If only they released in the west
@@SwitchWatch If it got a European release I'd be all over them.
I don't know if you game on PC but this one available on Steam, so maybe down the line it'll get a good discount on their?
Also if you wanna try one out could always checkout one of the older title on emu, I know they got a few on the GBA for example
How many robots can we play in here?
There a list of series out there and those didn't include future DLC
For starter.
Gundam UC without ZZ and Unicorn
Gundam V
Gundam Narrative
Mazinger
Shin Getter
Gridman SS
Majestic Prince
Code Geass LL of resurrected
Gaogaigar Final
Gun X Sword
Knight & Magic
Magic Knight Rayearth
Etc
Etc
Future DLC
Sakura War
Gundam Iron Blood Orphan
Ultraman ( the powersuit one )
Mazin emperor g bro?
Some full metal panic season 4 love woulda been good .
New evangelions from the final movie would be cool.
Tekkaman detonator orgun.
Maybe some obsolete love.
Karas woulda been really crazy.
And honestly since playing J and having the nadesico for a few games I miss it and thier ditzy crew.
Is there a North American release on switch eshop?
Sadly not
@@SwitchWatch oh well. So basically get the Asia English copy and start a Japan switch account for the dlc?
When it coming to the west i haven't seen it in GameStop here yet?
It’s only available physically in Asian regions
@@SwitchWatch 😫 boooo👎🏾
@@eugenebryant4970 you could check if Amazon has it. They have the other three on switch
