Take a gander at the Super Robot Wars Portable A trailer

While we can't embed the video for you to view here, we can point you towards the website where the official Super Robot Wars Portable A trailer can be viewed. It pops up in a separate window and takes several seconds to click into action, but fear not! It works and it really shows off some absolutely stunning 2D sprite animations. Incredibly fluid, incredibly cute robots, incredibly painful-looking robotic destructions ... it's everything you need and nothing you don't. Enjoy!

Super Robot Wars Portable A gets much more than a facelift

It's an understatement to say that Super Robot Wars A Portable has gone through a few tweaks for its PSP release. Originally on the Game Boy Advance, it should be fairly obvious that a straightforward port wouldn't satiate the desires of many robot fanboys. So what's new?

Graphics have been overhauled to near PlayStation 2 quality -- it's like having a console version in your hands or something. Battle scenes are now fully-voiced, more detailed 2D maps with a zoom feature along with other elements from the PS2 versions. There's also some gameplay tweaks. New skills abound and a "Trust" system has been instigated where your attack and defense will be affected as well as upgrading your equipment. You can opt between a 4:3 or 16:9 mode and enjoy some shortened load times if you're using the PSP-2000. The game's out in Japan on June 19th, so get your import cards ready!

Brand new screens of Super Robot Taisen A

Super Robot Taisen A Portable is a PSP remake of an old Gameboy Advance S-RPG. Moving onto the PSP means the game is getting a full overhaul with graphical enhancements, reworked weapon tunning and skill part systems, and all-new voice-acting. It's only fitting that a game about robots and upgrading robots gets an upgrade for itself. Want to see these changes for yourself? Then have a look at these new screenshots right here.

Super Robot Wars Portable announced

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.
