Revision as of 16:28, 26 December 2007

Super Robot Wars Original Generation Gaiden is a tactical role-playing game, and direct sequel to Super Robot Wars Original Generations, for the PlayStation 2. The bonus segments of Original Generations, entitled Original Generation 2.5: Unified Wisdom, was regarded as a preview for Original Generation Gaiden. The game will resolve many matters left unchecked at the end of Original Generation 2.5, such as one of the main antagonist's unfinished plan and the activities of one of the enemy factions.

Gameplay

The same tactical gameplay from Original Generations will be carried over to Original Generation Gaiden, along with the Twin Battle System and Twin Command game mechanics.

The first of two new gameplay features in Original Generation Gaiden is a card battling mini-game. Separate from the main game, this unique mini-game allows the player to play against the computer using trading cards representing various characters and mechs in the Original Generation games, played in the style of traditional collectible card games, such as Magic: The Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters. The second gameplay feature is the inclusion of a Free Battle Mode, where the player is given the freedom of setting their own scenario, placing which allied or enemy characters and mechs on the field in a specific environment.

Changes And Additions

Like Original Generations, Original Generation Gaiden will include new content, in the form of new characters and mecha, but will also provide additions to existing characters and mechs.

New mecha and characters from new series for the game include the following:
- Fighter Roar's sister, Emi, from the Great Battle IV, will be piloting the G Thundergate.
- Raul Gureden and his sister, Fiona Gureden, the protagonists of Super Robot Wars Reversal, will pilot the final frames for their Excellence units: the Excellence Lightning and the Excellence Eternal, respectively.
- Phorka Albark, the protagonist of Super Robot Wars Compact 3, will receive the Ialdabaoth (Apotheosized) as his new unit in the game.
- Shura generals Magnus Ald and Maysis Mark, from Compact 3, will be piloting their personal Shura Gods, the Andras and the Peirines, respectively.
- Hugo Medio, one of two protagonists of Super Robot Wars MX, is briefly playable during the initial scenarios, piloting a Gespenst MK II M Custom. Albero Esto, one of the game's main antagonists, is also briefly playable, along with his son Foglia, who appeared in MX only in mentions. Their story takes place before the destruction of the Cry Wolves squadron, which occurred in the past time of the MX storyline.

Additional mecha designed specifically for the game include the following:
- Gespenst MK II M Custom, a heavily customized Gespenst for Kai Kitamura. Painted in Kai's signature colors, this unit is seen mounted with Plasma Bucklers on both arms, and will utilize more grappling and martial arts techniques, as per his combat style.

Several existing units will gain new variations, such as Sanger Zonvolt's Dygenguar, which will utilize its previous disabled weapons, as an alternative to its Colossal Blade attacks.
- Existing units will also receive new Dynamic Kill sequences, such as Cybuster's Akashic Buster.

Some characters also make their debut appearance in the Original Generation universe in Original Generation Gaiden, albeit, in cameo appearances:
- Aqua Centrum, the second protagonist of Super Robot Wars MX, and Eldy Middy, another MX antagonist.
- Touma Kanou, the male super robot protagonist in Super Robot Wars Alpha 3.
