Super Robot Wars Portable announced

Filed under: News, Imports

It's time for Japan and importers to get their mecha on. Super Robot Wars A has been announced for the PSP, courtesy of everyone's favorite developer, Banpresto. Not your favorite? You don't count. If you're unfamiliar with the franchise, imagine a game where you could pick any of dozens of gigantic mechas from different anime, games, or whatever and see who is, after all, the most super of robots?

The game, originating on the old Game Boy in 1991, brought about a tactical role-playing style weaving in multiple storylines that are too complex for us to get into -- mostly because we don't understand Japanese. Importers should note, however, the menu system for the games are always simple enough for non-Japanese speaking players to understand. So when it releases in mid-June, don't be afraid to get your hands on this one.
