OK, technically the PS4 releases of these games aren’t region-locked either, but this is a Switch-focused site, so that’s who we praise. Enter the Switch, and the miracle of region-free consoles.
#SUPER ROBOT WARS NINTENDO SWITCH SERIES#
And so I chalked it up as an awesome series where I’d have to be grateful I even got to play the games I did. It was after falling in love with SRWOG and OG2 that I began researching the series online, discovering its already long history of games I’d probably never get to actually play without figuring out ROMs and emulators. They weren’t very successful, apparently, but I absolutely loved them. Who holds the rights to the music from each respective anime is also reportedly a stumbling block for the series internationally.Ī few games using original mechs and characters did get translated for the Game Boy Advance and DS. There may also be issues surrounding the game’s soundtrack. Working out all the rights for whomever holds those series’ rights is purported to be more trouble than it would be worth to bring the game over.

The series takes characters and mechs from dozens of anime and mashes them all together in one glorious turn-based strategic experience. Entries in the main series have never made it to the states officially, mostly due to rights issues from what I can ascertain.

The Super Robot Wars series hasn’t had much luck in the North American market.
