Super Robot Taisen:Original Generations

[sdragon21]

I decided to get this topic back up, because i really want this game here.

So please atlus, localize Original Generations!!!

[Philemon]

I second this suggestion along with SRW: OG Gaiden 8)

[sdragon21]

I second this suggestion along with SRW: OG Gaiden 8)

I also second your suggestion for OG Gaiden.

[animedemon]

Yea i really want to see both here ^^

[sdragon21]

Yea i really want to see both here ^^

Let's just hope Atlus annoucnes their '08 lineup within the next 4 weeks. I really want to hear a definate Yes Or No on wether or not this game is coming here. :D

[SpaceMartian]

To the great people of Atlus, please localize this game. I bought both of the Original Generation games for the GBA and enjoyed them very much. If this and OG Gaiden are localized, I'll be complete along with other fans of this game :D

[randar23rhenn]

YES! still pushing for this

[dillingeR]

I approve of this thread. Localize Original Generations,OR DIE ATLUS!

But seriously,please bring it over atlus.

[dillingeR]

I think I figured it all out. Atlus is waiting for the release of Original Generations Gaiden so as to bundle OGs + OG Gaiden in a deluxe box for NA.

That would probably be the best thing.....possibly ever.

[Ryusui]

That would indeed rock. We can only hope.

[sdragon21]

It might happen!!! :)

Still supporting for continued SRW:OG series NA localization.

Yes, but what shall we call this set? It must have a name!

We also need to start making threads in the SRW forum section as it is empty. A video thread would be a good start, since those do not need much to get started. Other suggestions include: a news thread, rumor thread, and a help thread. All of which do not limited to only the OG series, and can include related games like Hero Senki, ACE, and Scramble Commander.

[Hellfire99X]

As always, I still support the localization of this game. ;)

Also, YAY for our own forum section!

[sdragon21]

As always, I still support the localization of this game. ;)

Also, YAY for our own forum section!

I'll be uploading mech attack video's of OG's in Atlus's SRT forum.

Let's keep hoping for Atlus to bring this game stateside!!! :D

[LadyMiaow]

Back on the bandwagon. The dream must not die.

Still waiting for that heartfelt email back letting me know how I moved you to finally localize it, guys. <3

[viiral]

I support this thread :!:

* Jumps on the bandwagon * :wink:

[randar23rhenn]

i would love it if we got some deluxe box set of this and gaiden... and i would be willing to pay the price for two games. it would be awesome to have a set like DDS1 and 2... that was sweet

or just releasing them separately would be fine

as long as we get SRT: OGs, im happy

[RayFoxSith]

http://games.ign.com/articles/833/833693p1.html

I think this is the reason why Atlus isn't localizing this.

[MopZ]

Well if they do release it, then that's one rumor, and one of my suspicions confirmed. However, being a big company, they may not want to take the risk of releasing a niche title like this. I wonder what the fate of this title will be now.

[sdragon21]

http://games.ign.com/articles/833/833693p1.html

I think this is the reason why Atlus isn't localizing this.

Thing is, that article only applies to japan,and as far as i know, Atlus USA own's the rights to the SRW and Summon Night series, so Namco Bandai USA wouldn't get 1st crack to publish this title here in the states.

I hope i'm right... :(

[RayFoxSith]

You don't understand. Namco Bandai publishes their own games. If the company merges with them, Atlus USA (a publisher) has no say in the games Namco Bandai makes (a Developer/Publisher). And not only that, all properties made by the company go directly to NB. This is the exact same thing that happened when Clover closed its doors to merge with Capcom.

[Ryusui]

*coughTailConcertocough*

[RayFoxSith]

That's true, but have you seen other Namco games published by other people because, frankly, I haven't.

[sdragon21]

So what your saying is that this game will never see a US Release???

[Inzaghi]

*coughTailConcertocough*

At that time, though, Bandai wasn't merged with Namco and didn't have much of a games publishing presence in the US. If Tail Concerto 2 surfaces, I doubt very much that we'd get it.

[Ryusui]

Namco was run by bastards. Bandai Namco isn't.

I'm sure they'll play ball with Atlus...I mean, come on, how bad can the company that put such an intrinsically awesome title as Hellgate London on the shelves be?

[Inzaghi]

Um, EA published Hellgate.

[randar23rhenn]

well i'm still hoping for an atlus release of this title... that's all i can say

[sdragon21]

well i'm still hoping for an atlus release of this title... that's all i can say

It'll happen, trust me on this. I have a good feeling that Atlus won't let us down. Come on, when have they not been right???

[RayFoxSith]

So what your saying is that this game will never see a US Release???

Probably the opposite. They know this series has a following here and if they take the same steps as they did with Katamari Damacy, you'll get your robot fix soon.

[c-tez]

Yes please bring this game to the U.S Atlus. After playing the first two games you brought over i've been hooked.

[dillingeR]

http://games.ign.com/articles/833/833693p1.html

I think this is the reason why Atlus isn't localizing this.Well that changes things. I'm begining to think Atlus has no intention of ever localizing Original Generations or maybe they just can't,but won't tell us either way and leaves these SRW threads open so as to get more people aware of the sereis and the improve the sales of the games they HAVE released in NA.

Because I can gurantee be it either this thread,my previous thread,or the thread before that before the forums crashed and the threads were lost each time,it has made people more aware of the sereis and inturn,given their GBA games a try who probably never would have without them.

[sdragon21]

So what your saying is that this game will never see a US Release???

Probably the opposite. They know this series has a following here and if they take the same steps as they did with Katamari Damacy, you'll get your robot fix soon.

If Namco Bandai is gonna release this game in the states, they'd better do it soon, because after the end of '08, sony's gonna stop supporting the PS2.

[Inzaghi]

Where do you guys get this stuff? Sony didn't discontinue the PS1 until March 2006, and they've emphasized over and over that they want the PS2's lifespan to be 10 years. Retailers may well stop supporting the system by the end of 2008, but Sony themselves are almost certainly committed to the PS2 until 2010.

[randar23rhenn]

*cough* and so will atlus with SRT: OGs *cough*

[Ryusui]

Um, EA published Hellgate.

Co-published, whatever. Bandai Namco's logo is still on the box...in the United States, anyhow. >_>

[Zantagor]

That's true, but have you seen other Namco games published by other people because, frankly, I haven't.

Unless I'm mistaken, Tales of Symphonia was indeed published by Nintendo in the US not only that but the localization as well, hence why Namco didn't publish one for PS2 because they would have to pay Nintendo for the localization efforts or retranslate it for PS2 themselves.

[RayFoxSith]

Honestly, it really doesn't matter. This series is now under full ownership of Namco Bandai. I'm sure they will see that this fanbase gets what it deserves and will fuel it. Until then, you'll have to see what happens in the future.

[Kyoji]

I'd really like to see Altus do this game, but at this point, it doesn't seem possible...

Also, Tail Concerto 2 is, for the most part, confirmed. But it seems to be more of a Tail Concerto world hybridized with .hack. On the site that cc2.co.jp put up, it shows characters in a theme like that of Tail Concerto, but it also harbors Kite from .hack, as well as "To the World". I know that's sort of off topic, but I'm just replying to what I saw earlier in the post. x_x

You're right. The only thing we can do now is wait, and see what happens within the next couple of months.

[System_Error]

If you can, add this to your 08 game list for me. Pleaaaase? *hacks Onions brain*

[sdragon21]

We're just gonna have to wait and see if it does get announced...

[randar23rhenn]

are you guys saying its impossible for atlus to localize this now? i doubt it.. im sure they could still do so

id love for atlus to do localize these games

however, i gotta say, ill be happy however they get here... as long as they DO get here

[RayFoxSith]

Geez, it's not impossible for this game to be published, but you're asking the wrong people at this point.

[elnegro492003]

I too support this!!!! If it's in your hands ATLUS. Give us OGs!!!! :) :D

[Roy_Brewer]

I hope this time around to topic can match or surpass the amount of post from supporters of a localization.

[MopZ]

I too support this!!!! If it's in your hands ATLUS. Give us OGs!!!! :) :D
It's in Bandai Namco's hands right now, so its fate is up to them.

[Oddoai-sama]

Well, whatever happens ultimately. Hopefully the final decision will be known fairly soon and won't disappoint people that look forward to an english release. But at this point, fans can just hope this deal gets approved on both ends and results in this game winding up to the US.
I still want to believe this is possble, but I'm not holding my breath. I'll keep my fingers crossed though. :) Just loved the GBA OGs and the remake looks sweet. Should it get localized, that would make up for the whole lot of SRW games that didn't cross the border.

[randar23rhenn]

alright atlus is giving us 2 awesome looking games for 360 now.. why not add in an amazing PS2 game?!

lets go atlus!

[animedemon]

yuck 360 suck i say give us PS3 games

[DangerMouse]

I would absolutely love to see both of the SRW:OGS PS2 games brought over (including Gaiden once it comes out ofcourse)!

I've been importing the SRW games since PS1 and love the series.

I'm not sure why someone pointlessly mentioned the 360 Atlus announcement in a SRW topic about 2 PS2 games since it's completely off topic but as it's here I'll balance things out and say I couldn't care less about the 360 announcement since I don't have one and don't plan to get one, but I'd ofcourse love to see any PS3 RPGs that don't already have a US publisher or have been seemingly passed on for release considered by Atlus like Agarest Senki or Senjou no Valkyria if Sega doesn't translate it for the US themselves after it comes out next year, which would just be a crime considering how good it looks.

[Ryusui]

It wouldn't be impossible. Atlus has localized Sega properties before. Check out the two Shining Soul games and Shining Force: Resurrection of the Dark Dragon on GBA. :3

[sdragon21]

You're right, it is possible. Oddly enough, i own the GBA Shining force and am already on my 2nd playthrough. Great Game!!!

It's possible Atlus, so please, make a US OG's release a reality!!!!

[Oddoai-sama]

Not to mention SRW is infinitely worthier of a translated release than those 3 games combined. If the OGs really get in next year's lineup, that would be awesome beyond recognition.

[Futomimi]

worthier

[randar23rhenn]

we simply must have this game on NA shores.. must

[walrus]

I aprove of this thread.

[Roy_Brewer]

It seems like there is less steam in this movement at the moment wonder if people know the forums are back up.

[MoogleGunner]

Considering that we've had to post our support on something like 3 forums by now, it's not unreasonable. However, I think I speak for everyone who ever posted here, that there is an enormous want, nay NEED, for this game, and we'd love Atlus forever if they brought it over.

[Ryusui]

I believe that if Atlus has any chance at all of bringing this over, it will happen.

But if Bandai Namco has the exclusive say...you can kiss it goodbye.

[MoogleGunner]

Namco Bandai has let me down with their translations. I mean, really, Didn't Banpresto directly help Atlus with the OG translations?

Maasaki Ando?

Cyblaster?

It's... bothersome.

However, my wish for this game shall not cease.

[Onion of Mystery]

Yeah... "Help."

That's what it was.

[MoogleGunner]

Yeah... "Help."

That's what it was.

*raises eyebrow* Meaning?

[Kid Marin]

*raises eyebrow* Meaning?
Banpresto was a bit directive with the translation of SRT OG 1&2.

[Ryusui]

And we all know what happens when a Japanese company meddles with translation efforts.

[MoogleGunner]

And we all know what happens when a Japanese company meddles with translation efforts.

But... I really liked the translation for OG1 and 2 >_>;; I guess it wasn't good objectively then?

[Ryusui]

Actually, all Banpresto/Bandai really did was mandate the character and mecha names, which pissed off some of the fans. Me, I'm consistency freak, and having all the names unified under the banner of being official means we won't be having three or four different sets of names floating around in the canon.

The OG games have excellent localizations, but some of the battle dialogue seems a bit...stilted. Hopefully, somebody at Atlus will realize this and rewrite it so it sounds awesome instead of awkward when they have Animaze or Blue Water render the voices in English. (Is it odd that I'm actually kinda hoping they use a Canadian cast this time?)

[MoogleGunner]

Oooh.

Actually, I'm kind of glad they did, the mech names sound really good, IMO >_>;;

not that I'm doubting Atlus' ability, but having Giant Robots that don't sound slightly Japanese would be weird. Plus the consistency, etc.

That being said, if they mandated the names, why can't the OVA have the same names/spellings?

Anyway, since I too will assume that OGs is being worked on RIGHT NOW by Atlus (please?) I'm sure that a lot of the dialog will be reworked for voice acting, since a sense of natural flow to the dialog is more important for voice acting, no?

[Ryusui]

That's the theory; unfortunately, it all depends on whether the man behind the wheel values euphony over accuracy or not. If the guy's bent on a word-for-word translation, expect disaster.

[Inzaghi]

not that I'm doubting Atlus' ability, but having Giant Robots that don't sound slightly Japanese would be weird.

You're aware that half the OG robots' names are German in origin, right?

[MoogleGunner]

Yes. I'm aware of the fact that I'm not getting my opinion across clearly >_>;;

Sorry. What I mean is that the names must have sounded cool in the country of origin, and...

y'know what... just forget I said anything v_v;; I can't articulate ideas properly lately.

If anyone wants to follow the OG Gaiden release, i'll be posting a ton of info here when i get it / as info comes out.

Seeing all these videos, screenshots and info for OGS and OG:Gaiden really makes me sad I can't play them. If only there where a company that could localize these games for the US. :roll:

[MoogleGunner]

Hey guys. Posting in here again, to show my undying support for this game, even though I've already embarassed myself thoroughly in doing so.

:D

[Ryusui]

Why does it surprise me that Bandai Visual USA has actually released the OVA under the "Super Robot Wars" title?

I suppose even a broken clock is right twice a day.

[Delition]

Why does it seem as though that saying is trying to make a comeback? That's the third time I've heard/read it today.

[MopZ]

If I remember the reason they changed it was to avoid confusion between the show Robot Wars, or at least according to the fans. The reason the name didn't change was because of BV's marketing plan, which is a global release as opposed to seperate, different, releases per country. Basically, get it out in the USA at the same time it's out in Japan. It's a good philosophy, and I wish other companies would get a hint. This is also what I believe BV is trying to get across. My opinion though.

[MoogleGunner]

'sup guys. Giant Robots are great. Also, this game is still amazing and still needs more support for its localization. (At least you can't say that I only joined to post in this topic once >_>)

You've got their marketing philosophy half-right. As far as they're concerned, the rest of the world is the same market as Japan. That doesn't mean, however, that we get treated to earlier releases. Oh, no. Instead, it means we get treated to obscenely-priced releases, just like what Japan has to suffer through. Two eps for fifty dollars should be illegal, dammit. >_<#

[sdragon21]

If NamcoBandai somehow publishes OG's here in the states, they're royally gonna screw this up. It's just a feeling i've got.

Why does it seem as though that saying is trying to make a comeback? That's the third time I've heard/read it today.

It's a joke in Touch Detective 2 1/2 too. One of the puzzles in the game revolves around that idea of a broken clock being correct twice a day. So make that four times. :D

[Ryusui]

Well, it's a true saying. Of course, broken digital clocks, which tend to display whether it's AM or PM in addition to the time, are only right once per day. (An unset VCR is right only at the stroke of midnight. Creepy, huh?)

That said, I wouldn't say Namco Bandai would "screw it up" so much as put a halfhearted effort into it. I suspect they wouldn't do nearly the amount of research necessary to pull off a consistent translation, and they'd probably bring their C-game to the English dub.

Sorry, but it's hard to forgive .hack//G.U.. :P

I agree with you, most of Namco Bandai's translations are half hearted, but with a few exceptions (Tales of the Abyss being one of them, and is my favorite Tales game so far.)

[La Guna]

finally I decided to re-register on the evercrashing Atlus board *No harm meant!*
Time to wait if the title get finally annouced in the year 2008 or start a japanese course :D

Actually they are going for as close to simultaneous release as possible. Then mimicking the jp disc release (for some stuff) Seems like they wanna give you at least an hour of content per disc, minimum, freedom excluded (i know thats 1 ep per disc

[Zachalmighty]

Watashi Kami! I order this game to be translated by the hands of Englishmen!

[Starlock]

Can only hope they bring it over. Cause getting my PS2 modded and importing them over be a bit much trouble and more pricey. Plus wouldn't be able to understand the storyline and the the usual humorous lines that show up.

Although them giving a definite yes or no would be nice.

A definite yes or no would be nice, but i doubt we'll here from them anytime soon.

It's because of 1 of 2 reasons.
Either A: This game is taking a lot longer to translate then they thought it would take.
Or B:They lost the rights to Namco Bandai, and it'll never see the light of day outside of japan.

[Darkvampire24]

Please Atlus Release this in english please if it sale you want this game will make the company very famous oh come wht have you got to lose

[Onion of Mystery]

Can you try making your point again? Take a deep breath this time. We're not in a race.

[RayFoxSith]

And with some proper grammar. You know, periods, commas, etc.

[Darkvampire24]

oops sorry everyone just trying to get my point across i live in england but i ordered og 1 and 2 from ebay great games i just want the ps2 version to be english

[Sagadego]

And ya still did not use periods!? What the Frack !?

[MoogleGunner]

If they lost the rights to Namco Bandai, I would expect that they would be like "Hey guys we lost the rights to Namco Bandai. Sucks to be you, go harass them" And then we'll have to play a ####ty translation with no English Voice Acting, and god-forsakenly-horrible unit names (This is the only one that I'm certain about). I'm looking at you Cyblaster.

[Zeta_Nova]

Namco Bandai, dispite their non-voiced skits for the Tales games. They had really good voice work for Tales of the Abyss during the fight and anime scenes. And I really enjoyed it.

But, as with you guys. I also approve of this thread as well. Since I just got into the whole SRPG genre, with Nintendo's other tactical RPG; the Fire Emblem series.

[Zantagor]

I don't think Namco/Bandai would screw up the names of the units considering Banpresto was a subsidiary of Bandai to begin with and they're also the ones who decided on the "official" names for the English version of the GBA games.

[Zeta_Nova]

Personally though, I think it's possible. As Atlus or Namco Bandai's job would only be to cast the main characters (provided they found a credible voice recording studio) and translate the menus. And not having to worry about characters from various mech series'.

[Darkvampire24]

I dont care for the voice acting i would of prefered it in japanese just the text in the game they should change

You don't have to worry about casting so much as writing and direction.

[randar23rhenn]

i've basically lost hope for this. it seems they're content to give us baroque, Drone Tactics, and other games instead of THIS amazing game

alas.

and what's with the sudden surge of grammar police? O_o

[La Guna]

Maybe it will be announced in the "End of the Year 2008" edition of the newsletter :D

...

Wait? Atlus has a newsletter? :shock:

[Darkvampire24]

I do actully beleave atlus will localise this game because

1. It has all the original robots so no need to worry about the incredible amount of licence fees

2. judging by this thread theres been so many people have been requesting this game to be localised

is there anyway for us to set up a petition and when we reach the target amount atlus will localise it no questions asked?

[Antares]

If the decision of whether to localize this game is ultimately up to Bandai Namco, then I don't think any amount of us telling Atlus how much we want this game would influence BN's decision.

[MoogleGunner]

If that was the case, I'd hope ATLUS would just tell us.

[Shunyata]

It gets my vote to be brought over here. Also as far as rights Atlus only has rights over the gameboy advance versions of the game. So where it is likely we wont see these, it is really up to Atlus. Oh and Banpresto is still making SRW games well passed april.

Check it, it has appealing information to fans of the series.

How is it really up to Atlus?

[Shunyata]

Its up to them on whether they want to fork out the money for the playstation 2 counterparts of this great game. All that time it may take to translate is unforgivable to some. Although if Atlus really wanted to they could outsource just the translation, but we would end up with a crap translation. Like i said before its not up to bandai namco on these titles. Atlus has to decide whether its worth it to release these domestically and pay for all those wonderful hours on what could be a massive ps2 project.

[Futomimi]

You don't get it.

[Shunyata]

You don't get it.



:shock:

[Shunyata]

look i want to see this game come out in the states. All im saying is that Atlus has to go and get the rights for the ps2 versions from banpresto. If atlus was really going to they have till march im guessing to do it. Although if banpresto is still making prize machines they will still have the rights to these games as long as they exist. Now for future SRW titles that poses a question. For one i would like to see SRW OG Endless Frontier in america. It is possible that Atlus could do this one too with only one exclusivity right to purchase for the character KOS-MOS.

I VOTE TO SEE THIS SRW OG TITLE IN AMERICA

Endless Frontier

Even more proof that Atlus can't touch this series anymore.

EDIT: I take that back, after thinking about the Dante cross-over into Nocturne.

[Darkvampire24]

oh for god sake atlus tell us if you are gonna make this game or not

[Arjuna]

I can answer that:

No.

This crap has been asked for over and over again over the years I have been here and never has it been published.

[Ryusui]

They did wait ten months to announce P3: FES. >_>

I'm not giving up hope until June comes and goes again.

[Futomimi]

years

ten months

One of these is substantially longer than the other.

[System_Error]

They haven't announced FES. For all we know it could be an elaborate plan to localize EOII. Make us think we are getting FES & boom ETRIAN ODYSSEY.

And although I hate to help Ryusui.....


Super Robot Taisen Original Generations Banpresto 06/28/07

[Sayckeone]

Ten months, amirite?

[Futomimi]

I thought he meant either the Super Robot ______ series or just crappy games that the parent company wants to keep the rights to in general...

God dammit Al, this is the second time you've confused me today :P

Atlus may have developed a questionable taste in localization preferences (rant rant honorifics rant rant Fuuka Yamagishi rant rant), but they haven't yet developed a sick sense of humor. (Though I won't discount the possibility of being proven wrong.)

[Zeta_Nova]

^^; I guess, as compared to the Tales games where it was well received among fans in the U.S. SRW on the other hand wasn't that well received or well known.

Even to this day, North America even received two confirmations for their latest Tales games; Dawn of the New World (for Wii) and Vesperia (for 360).

But, if anything. I hope that we get to see this game be localized either by Namco Bandai or Atlus. As I'm willing to start up this series again.

[Ryusui]

It's a shocker until you realize that neither new Tales game comes within a million miles of Sony and its American branch's long-standing vendetta against the franchise. (And the PSP, for that matter.)

[Darkvampire24]

atlus really need to start putting their foot down and start making a decision its a simple yes or no or if it is namco bandai decision let us know jesus we been at this for a god dam long time!!

[RayFoxSith]

I can answer that:

No.

[Mungo]

Not to discredit you or anything like that, but for once it would be nice to hear from some actual Atlus staff.

They don't owe anybody any sort of explanation.

Wrong. They owe me an explanation as to why they have yet to announce EO2.

No, that's different. That's a native Atlus title.

Atlus, you better announce Elminage & EOII on Tuesday >_>

[RayFoxSith]

Atlus, you better announce Elminage & EOII on Tuesday

[TheMagicHat]

I'm probably really late in the game (or maybe not, seeing as it hasn't been liscensed yet), but I'll add my support for OGs and (hopefully) OGG coming over.

[RTW]

I also voice SRT: OG for a US release.

There are sooo many of them and I strongly feel left out that only 4 of them have been localized for English. To make it worse, not a single one was localized for PS1 or PS2. I've played and own the GBA versions, which are great, but I would love to see the stunning action of this recent SRT title very much. I know everyone's got this "English Dub" must have, but honestly SRT is a title for the fans, as long as it's got English subtitles, it's as good as gold.

[Zeta_Nova]

And this game has also has potential of having great anime voice acting.

[Sayckeone]

^Damn. That's reason enough for Atlus to localize it.

[Zantagor]

^Damn. That's reason enough for Atlus to localize it.

Lol, do I detect a tiny speck of sarcasm in your tone? ;)

[Danakir]

Perish the thought.

[Ridley-X4]

I really don't see why Atlus wouldn' localize OGs, seeing as Atlus has done both the GBA games. This thread has like, five pages, which is more than most of the other threads in this section.

I'm pretty sure they haven't said anything.

[Atrael]

Just spent hours checking out videos of Super Robot Wars OGG....
Holy crap does this game look awesome. I just recently came across both the SRW OG games for GBA and I am in love with this series already.

So if there is any way possible I would love a US release of any and all SRW games they can bring out. I'd even love SRW W for the DS but i think licensing on that one might be a pain.

[Sei]

I just got the GBA ones and must say that I totally support such a release and pledge a purchase if it was to be.

Also, are there scans of the GBA ones manuals around anywhere? I got them at EBgames and they only had the carts :(. I would gladly take replacement manuals from Atlus too, but after finding out that they have none for Trauma Center, I dont suppose theyd help me with this.

[TheMagicHat]

It's not as if it's difficult to learn how to play the games. There are plenty of FAQs out there that quite clearly explain the game mechanics. Unless you're looking for the manuals just to feel complete.

Then again, I DID buy both OG games new.

[Sei]

Yeah, the games aren't that complicated, I just like reading the manuals for whatever art or story tidbits they may contain plus an explanation of stats.

And I kinda like collecting things too so...

[Atrael]

I think I figured it all out. Atlus is waiting for the release of Original Generations Gaiden so as to bundle OGs + OG Gaiden in a deluxe box for NA.

That would probably be the best thing.....possibly ever.

It might happen!!! :)


I really wish this would be real. It would be one of the sweetest box sets I have ever bought. I would already be overjoyed for just one of these titles..... but if we got both in one shot I would completly freak out.

I cant really explain why, but I got hooked to this series fast and Ive spent the last week watching every game play video i could find on both OG and OGG. (Inserts addict smiley here)

[Super Robot Fan]

I agree if this game would be localized by Atlus, they would make a lot of money. This game was one of the best in Japan or at least a great seller. To further prove that OGs and OGG would do well, I think Atlus should look at the sell of the two GBA games.

[Zeta_Nova]

What say you Atlus? What're your opinions on this? Because it seems alot of people on this board want to see this game through to the U.S. Personally, I would as well.

[Onion of Mystery]

My personal opinion is that game developers in Japan are like gods lounging around on a cloud far above the earth. Once in a while they'll throw lightning bolts at us, either for sport, or out of sheer boredom, or curiosity, or because someone's building lots of lightning rods and they can't resist a target. The problem is that they're impervious to our logic and don't listen to why we want (or DON'T want) a particular lightning bolt.

No, I mean that it doesn't matter what me, or you, or a hundred other people want. They'll do things according to some flight of whimsy that is inscrutable to the likes of you or me.

[Arjuna]

I don't get how this thread has 35000 views.. if that many people want this you figure one of them would be making some sort of patch compared to the other translations a few other great games are receiving by their dedicated fan base.

[Sayckeone]

35000 views spread out among how many people? Definitely not 35000.

[Arjuna]

But still that is a considerably huge amount compared to other threads. I don't even think the P2 patch thread has that many at it's own forum.

[Sayckeone]

So a bunch of them, showing the kinds of losers that we all know them to be, viewed the page a ridiculous amount of times over the past few months in an attempt to (unsuccessfully)embellish their numbers.

[Arjuna]

Yeah that is pretty believable considering only this thread has been getting views specifically, you figure any other normal user would have clicked other threads.

[Sei]

I dunno, lots of people come across this thread when googling for the GBA games, as it comes up, the regulars are sometimes less than welcoming tho, and I would guess that that discourages a lot of them from posting or hanging around the boards.

I am sure that given enough time, there will be a translation effort for this tho, actually, I remember coming across one the other day that intends to inject a modified GBA script into the first PS2 title, but who knows.

If PSX TOP is any indication, it may be faster to just learn Japanese yourself though.

Still, I'd love Atlus doing it.

Onion of Mystery: How about those GBA scans and or replacement manuals? :)

[Onion of Mystery]

Onion of Mystery: How about those GBA scans and or replacement manuals? :)
Scans: doubtful. We might have extra manuals. Contact our shop and ask them.

[Atrael]

I even sent Namco/Bandai an email in the hopes that I would be the final straw to break the camels back resulting in them releasing it over in america. But I bet they are probably sitting back laughing at the poor fanboy who doesn't know how to read Japanese.

On the bright side.... I found out the psp is region free so I imported SRW MX and most of the commands are all in the same place as the GBA OG remakes Atlus made so I can still play it. Too bad the PS2 isn't region free or I would import OG G.

[Darkvampire24]

If they did localised it wouldnt they strip the 2.5 extra off the game

plus should i just get it on japanese

[Zeta_Nova]

If they did localised it wouldnt they strip the 2.5 extra off the game

If it's in Namco Bandai's case. We'd get more of an extended version of the game. Because N.B served us with extra features in Abyss that were not in the Japanese version. Like extra Artes, extra features (Luke being able to perform his Arte with his hair long <== was not present in the japanese version).

Though, I'm not as much mad about it [SRT OG] not heading stateside. As I'm still happy with Symphonia: Dawn of the New World and 360's Tales of Vesperia heading stateside.

[Super Robot Fan]

Hopefully, Altus decides to at least think about localizing the OGs and OGG games. In my opinion, I think that these two games would sell greatly. If Atlus localized it, it would probably all over the net and everyone who has seen the japanese version would mostly likely buy the game when it gets localized.

[Hellfire99X]

I know I most certainly will buy it, no matter when it comes out -- six months from now, a year, two years, four years, doesn't matter. I already own the Japanese versions of OGs and OGG, and I've also picked up the OGs soundtrack and the PS2 memory card (which came with STICKARZ! WOOT!!!) Of course, I also have the Atlus-translated versions of OG1 and OG2 for the GBA as well... though I'll admit they haven't gotten as much lovin' since I've picked up the PS2 games. Still worth every dollar I spent on 'em though, and eventually I will play through them so I can get myself clued in on the entire plot.

To Atlus and Namco-Bandai / Banpresto: Allow these games to be brought to America! While I may never own the anime series, I will own any and all Original Generation games, no matter what system they're on, and regardless of whether they're in Japanese or English.

... though English is strongly preferred. :P

[Super Robot Fan]

I totally agree with Hellfire99X, I too own all of the Super Robot games that have been released in the US. I would definitely buy OGs and OG Gaiden if it would be released in the US. As I am a fan of the game and the games itself are just great.

[Darkvampire24]

i heard tht some of the characters on super robot wars og is not actully owned by banpresto

[Protoxenon]

Has anyone actually started a petition for the localization of SRW:OG/OGG here in NA? With the vast capability of the internet, gathering most of the fans of SRWOG to start a petition should be easy since information travels very quickly. I've played alpha 2/3 for PS2 and MX for PSP and I understand why it'd be costly to have it localized (licensing issues), but for OG/G I'm sure the only thing that needs editing is Excellen's quotes that came from other mecha licensed animes.

Personally, I'd like to see the SRW:OG series to be localized here by Atlus because of the quality translation they've done with past games (Disgaea:HoD, Odin Sphere, Persona, Skygunner just to name a few). I'm sure most gamers will agree.

[Futomimi]

^ Yes. And none of them worked, just like how online petitions never work.

[Protoxenon]

^ Yes. And none of them worked, just like how online petitions never work.

Well not exactly:

http://kotaku.com/gaming/lingo/mass-effect-bioshock-turning-japanese-267398.php

SRW:OG has a big fan base due to past SRW games made, I/we know it and the other side noticed it too. Did NA allowed translation of Mass Effect, Oblivion, Bioshock to boost sale of the 360? Could be, but same goes if Atlus or maybe Namco/Bandai localized SRW:OG stateside. The PS2 is slowly phasing out but that doesn't mean we can't play these great games for the PS3 or PSP if they decided to port it just like MX :D

[Kakizaki]

^How does that correlate to anything sales wise? Have you seen recent numbers? The PS2 sells pretty well.

[Protoxenon]

The PS2 sells pretty well.

Exactly, as long as companies keeps releasing quality games for this system consumers will continue to purchase them. Maybe I exaggerated the PS2 slowly phasing out since there's a lot of games being translated thats keeping it alive. But in any case, I still would love to see SRW:OG/G to be localized for NA release. :wink:

[Kakizaki]

^A niche title wouldn't effect sales one iota.

[Sayckeone]

One could argue whether or not SRT is quality...

[Antares]

I read that Atlus is going to make an announcement next week regarding a game release. Not sure if it's true. Let's pray it's true and they'll announce they're bringing over SRWOGs!

[Sanctine]

It won't be SRT (and thank god).

[Futomimi]

They already announced one Banpresto game that no one was expecting. Two would be overkill.

[Kakizaki]

Let's pray it's true and they'll announce they're bringing over Etrian Odyssey II!

Amen brother!

[Protoxenon]

Let's pray it's true and they'll announce they're bringing over SRWOGs!

That would be a welcoming announcement. But until Atlus makes an official announcement that they'll not localize SRW:OG I wouldn't keep my hopes up.

[Super Robot Fan]

Hopefully, Atlus does localize SRW OGs and OGG in the US. It doesn't hurt to hope for it.

[Sayckeone]

They already announced one Banpresto game that no one was expecting. Two would be overkill.
They announced 800 Success games that no one was expecting...

[Zeta_Nova]

Are you saying you don't want SRT OG to be released in the states :?: :x

[TheMagicHat]

His comments so far have been pretty damn explicit, I would think. >_>;

As much as I'd like the SRT games here as well, I fear the fanboy explosion that would occur if it ever was announced.

[Sayckeone]

Are you saying you don't want SRT OG to be released in the states :?: :x
No, but I'll say it now. Atlus is currently localizing enough shovelware as it is; we don't need to add more to the mix.

[Atrael]

Thats just your opinion. These games are huge in Japan and they could be huge here as well. Im sure everyone who has ever played the GBA SRW games would pick up a copy and probably tell all of their friends to pick one up as well. These games would also appeal to anyone who has a liking for tactical rpg's or anime even if they had never played the GBA versions.

No they won't. I love mecha. I love strategy games. I was disappointed in OG even after having imported various SRW titles on the Saturn. I wouldn't recommend the GBA versions to any of my friends. As much as I respect the job Atlus does localizing games, the story blew in OG. SRW needs the draw of licensed properties.

[Protoxenon]

No they won't. I love mecha. I love strategy games. I was disappointed in OG even after having imported various SRW titles on the Saturn. ~~~ As much as I respect the job Atlus does localizing games, the story blew in OG.

It looks like you're more into the Mechwarrior type "mecha" and Command and Conquer style "strategy games". This could be the main reason SRT:OG or SRT series itself isn't more to your liking. The storyline may be a "little" bit cliche in OG but I had fun finishing it because of the characters that carried the story along. The challenge that was involved in each scenario is enhanced due to the exciting animation sequences that banpresto finally decided to work hard on. Add to that the vast array of customizable options available ensuring that the gaming experience can be tailored to the gamers taste.

To sum it up, what seems "boring" or "stupid" to one person may be "fun" and "sensible" to another... heck 197,000 + SRT:OGG consumers think so. :wink:

Wrong. I played the GBA games, and I would not pick up the PS2 release. I also enjoy SRPGs, and I would not pick up the PS2 release.

[Kakizaki]

How would you assume that from one or two sentences? I don't really care for RTS games, and really don't care for Battletech/Mechwarrior styled mecha. I like designs from Macross, Votoms, and Patlabor, but just because I like Japanese mecha doesn't mean I have to like SRW OG.

[Phyber_Logik]

I support the localization of this game. Atlus, at least give us a definite yes or no.

[Super Robot Fan]

Please Atlus, Please localize Super Robot Taisen: Original Generations and Original Generation Gaiden. If you would give us an answer about if you will localize it or not, that would be very great, cuz if you are going to localize it I am going to pre-order these games as soon as I hear about it. So Please Atlus consider localizing this game and giving us an answer.

[Zachalmighty]

It would be nice to atleast give us SRW Gaiden.

[ZeroPhoenix44]

It would be nice to get atleast one of them.

[Zachalmighty]

This would be the last thing on my list of games I hope get localized since you guys are already localizing EOII

[Super Robot Fan]

Even though Atlus are localizing all of these other awesome games. I am still hoping for the localization of Super Robot Taisen: Original Generations and Gaiden, no matter what. I would rather get these games first then the other games like EO II.

Everyone has their own opinion, and I like the Super Robot Taisen games better than EO II. I would be willing to pay $100 to $120 for the games if they were localized and that is how much it cost to buy it.

[RTW]

I would be willing to pay $100 to $120 for the games if they were localized and that is how much it cost to buy it.

[Zeta_Nova]

Well, look at the bright side. Atlus gave us several games under the following genres. And from seeing this, I don't think I could be more satisfied. So all in all, SRT OG or no SRT OG. I'm still fine.

+3 S RPGs

- Rondo of Swords
- Spectral Force 3
- Drone Tactics

+ 2 Action/RPG

- Summon Knight: Twin Age
- Baroque

+ 1 Enhanced game based on Original

- SHIN MEGAMI TENSEI PERSONA 3: FES (spelling was also in all caps as well)

+1 Sequel

- Etrian Odyssey II

Anime Themed Fighting Game

- Arcana Heart

[c-tez]

I would be willing to pay $100 to $120 for the games if they were localized and that is how much it cost to buy it.

[Zeta_Nova]

lol, I wish :D :lol:

[Zantagor]

heh, I've just preordered SRT:A Portable(PSP remake of SRT Advanced on GBA) and ordered SRT:MX Portable about a week ago ;)

[Darkvampire24]

Mx is all that it doesnt have the feel as og and alpha does but buy it if you are a true SRW fan

[Darkvampire24]

anymore news yet ?

[Zantagor]

Nope.

though a new game is planned on PS3 now ;)

now that means I'll have to get a PS3 when it comes out. At least, No Region Lock this time!

[Super Robot Fan]

I just hope that Atlus will give us some news about these games soon. I really want to get the 2 Super Robot Taisen games for the PS2.

[Ridley-X4]

So how does SRW OG/OG2 have a bad plot? I mean, it's not like Gunbuster's ending or anything. Though I will admit I had a hard time following the whole mash-up of all the originals, like the XN-Geist and Alfimi's/Neo Regisseur's psychogical babble (LOL NEW SEED etc.). I guess that's the problem, isn't it? I also didn't like Axel's raging obession for Kyosuke. BEOWUUUUUUUULLLF!!!!!

[TheMagicHat]

Oh come on! It was Axel's raging obsession for Kyosuke that made him one of the coolest (and gayest) characters in OGs. :P

[Ridley-X4]

Oh come on! It was Axel's raging obsession for Kyosuke that made him one of the coolest (and gayest) characters in OGs. :P

He wasn't gay. And if you play the original game where Axel is from, SRW: Advance, then he's more relaxed than in OG2, where he's just a dick. Still, Soulgain is awesome.

I was kidding about the gay part, since you mentioned his burning obsession with Kyosuke. :P

But as OG2 villians go, he was one of the few I actually liked. I couldn't stand the others like Vindel or the Inspectors.

Yeah, Vindel was kinda hard to understand, and the Inspectors were even bigger dicks than Axel. But then again, everyone knows what happens with Mekibos when facing Wendolo... It really sucks we didn't get a playble Greaterkin (sp?) and just a lame-ass AI-controlled one.

Now Archibald and the Machine Children were damn good villians. They were NUTS. Just totally unhinged, like they needed to go to an asylum or something. They were the people that since they first appear, you just wanted to HTB Cannon them to Hell. I also liked Ingram from OG1, as well.

Now am I the only one who thinks that OGG is a more important game to bring over? I mean, OGs is just a remake of OG1/OG2, and in OGG, you get an entirely new storyline with DOZENS of new playable and enemy units, and there's also the "free battle" mode, with any unit, even if it's not in OGG (shown by an offical promotional vid of OGG with Judecca from OG1 attacking Neo Regisseur from OG2).

[hanzou]

To the great people of Atlus, please localize SRT:OGG

[zulwarn]

ill wait until E3 if its not announced by then then ill give my hopes up for this game :(

[Super Robot Fan]

Please Atlus, I believe that localizing Super Robot Taisen: Original Generations and Gaiden would be a very good thing for you guys, as all the fan of these games would buy it.

[System_Error]

Please Atlus, Please Localize Yggdra Union PSP.

Yes, Inzaghi, i've been suffering so bad, due to the fact that Atlus has yet to annouce either OG or OG Gaiden, i've resorted to buying one of these:

And yes, i use it 3 times a week, and it works.

Good. Let us know how that works out for you.

Honestly at this point it's the fact that we don't know whether to get our hopes up or not, more than anything. =/

It used to work for me, too...until I realized I was supposed to bang MY OWN head on it, not someone elses.

Wasn't as fun after that.

To the great people of Atlus, please localize SRT:OGG

I second this. Please atlus, just one more time of this SRT: OG :cry:

[Ridley-X4]

ill wait until E3 if its not announced by then then ill give my hopes up for this game :(

Yeah, maybe that's why they haven't said anything about it. Think about it. There's a lot of people in this thread who either want to see the SRX blowing up the R-Rivale in OGs, more playable Alchimie and Axel in OGG, or something else. Here's hoping that OGs/OGG is Atlus' secret weapon for E3....or something among that.

Hey Sayck, I'm curious why you dislike the SRT games. I know it's not just trolling, seeing how you said you played them, so I'm positive you have a very legitimate reason to dislike SRT. You could say it's the worst game in the world and I wouldn't care. IGN said whether if a person will likes it or not depends on it. Hey, I like giant robots, so I like SRT. This isn't Gamefaqs or 4chan's /v/ board, so I won't rage.

nah i just thought e3 is the biggest and baddest if atlus does announce OGS it would be the perfect time to do so along with other games :P

personally i think their secret weapon will be an SMT game since it is one of their best franchise

[Zeta_Nova]

Personally, I hope it's SRT. Because I miss playing it.

[Super Robot Fan]

I agree with u Zeta_Nova. I hope that it is Super Robot Taisen: Original Generations and or Gaiden.

[Antares]

So when's E3?

[Sagadego]

In July

[Zeta_Nova]

I agree with u Zeta_Nova. I hope that it is Super Robot Taisen: Original Generations and or Gaiden.

Sorry if I did it once. But this is a definite must for me. Since that the anime version of SRT OG wasn't available in stores.

Please Atlus. You came through with Persona 3 FES. How bout one more time with Banpresto's SRT OG for the PS2 :).

[randar23rhenn]

yeah i've pretty much already lost hope for this game.. yeah E3 might have something, but thats what I thought about LAST E3.

[LadyMiaow]

Mean old Inzaghi, picking on us like that.

Don't make me fetch that blonde to clobber you some more, mister.

[Zeta_Nova]

lol, Well look on the bright side ^^;. At least we still got two more SRPGs coming to North America.

Spectral Force 3
Operation Darkness :D.

Though, I'd rather play S.F 3 instead.

Too bad they are only for the XBox(not-an-RPG-console)360.

*looks at the 360 library*

*looks at the PS3 library*

It looks like it's the next-gen RPG console to me, hopefully it means more multi-platform RPGs going forward.

[Darkvampire24]

i have this in jap version such a great game recommend it to anyone who has played the gba versions u dnt really need to knw japanese to enjoy it but this a few new added chapters so when they finally do decide to release it in english i am so gonna buy it

[Zeta_Nova]

Well, there's still two RPGs that may be going cross platform.

- Tales of Vesperia (the developers DID announce it for the PS3. But as of this moment, it'll be going to the 360 first)
- The Last Remnant (which looks like an RPG version of the Dynasty Warriors franchise)

[Jonboy]

This one had my support since before the last crash (and it still does). Then I said "screw the waiting, I need to play some of this NOW". So uh... OG Gaiden's on it's way to my house.

I do think people should give this a rest though and go knock on Bamco's door if anything. Looks like they're the ones with the juice, unless there are other ways. Seems like there isn't, though.

[Zeta_Nova]

Yeah, I agree. Even though I like it to come. It's now been handed over to NBGI (for those into Tales/Eternal Sonata, you should know what this stands for XD).

Because I'm still happy that we still get Spectral Force (another anime-inspired SRPG) and Operation Darkness. And that Infinite Undiscovery (even though I.D is a Square Enix game lol).
