None of those links seem to be working properly, and the series list seems like one of those 'too good to be true' types.

Re: Super Robot Wars Z 2

Yeah, sorry, the scans seem to have gone down due to traffic. A friend is uploading them to Imageshack, and I'll replace the dead links once they become available.

EDIT: Added the new images. Also, I missed Xabungle on the series list.

Ah yes, Finally 00 enter the SRW universe, and not forgetting Guren Lagann, and Geass. I like the list-- 00, Wing (TV series.. Not Endless Waltz?? I'm not dreaming!!) , and Geass should fit each other well in the story. :)

Re: Super Robot Wars Z 2

AWESOME! I was hoping this was going to be on the PS3, but I have no complaints that its on a system that is region locked. Going to have to hunt down a PSP now :D

And, didn't they say Daiguard was never going to be in an SRW game? I could have sworn that it was said in that "Super Robot Taisen U" article.

Votoms: The Last Red Shoulder
Votoms Red Shoulder Document: Roots of Ambition
Votoms: Pailsen Files
Am I reading that right!? :shock: Votoms? Four series at once no less? Should be interesting.
Zeta Gundam
Char's Counterattack
For the former is it movies again or the series? I'm also betting they're just gonna use Nu again.
Gundam 00 S1
Just sea- Actually, I'm not complaining, go Kyrios!
Dancouga Nova
They better have more than just Regulus Alpha in the mook arsenal this time around darn it, at least have the other two regs.
Shin Change Getter Robo
Is that New Getter Robo or one of the manga? If it's the former they better have more giant oni aside from the cloud one this time (and preferably a final showdown with the four heavenly kings).
Shin Mazinger Impact
BWAHAHAHAHAHA! BURN IT HIGH! HERO SHINE! MAZINGER! *lightning strike*
The Big O
Win.
Gravion Zwei
Aquarion
F**K YES!
Gurren Lagann Movie Gurren-hen
Makes me wonder if they're gonna do the battle of Tepplin.

Re: Super Robot Wars Z 2

Dude, I think my heart stopped for a few seconds when I saw this list, finally VOTOMS in SRW, although sadly there will only be the 1st half of 00, Geass and Guren Lagann, but then again its pretty much already confirming those series for SRW Z3 (hopefully for the PS3).

My wallet is going to be quite empty considering G-Gen World and other games coming out in Feb and March but then again this game 'might' be delayed so I can save up for it. I hope Setsuko from Z comes back again cause I really liked her character (not to mention she's quite a beauty.)

It's actually an OVA. You know, the post-apocalyptic one. Instead of Oni or dinosaurs, the Getter Teams (there's more than one) traipse around a bombed-out Earth killing hideous, shapeshifting aliens called the Invaders, which look like they're only a stone's throw away from John Carpenter's "The Thing." Ryoma slaughters stuff in the Black Getter.

It's an awesome little OVA. Easily my favorite Getter title to date

Additional info (posted by duckroll from neogaf.)

Might want to take a look at this:
- This is the part 1 of SRWZ2. The game is divided into 2 parts.

Adding to what Imperial said, this one was released in America by ADV under the title "Getter Robo Armageddon". You might be able to track down a copy online or at an anime con.

Re: Super Robot Wars Z 2

Holy crap! You, sir, made my day.

If I interpret the scans correctly, it would seem only the first season of 00 is in the game. Bah, we will see. In any case, it is better than good news, everyone...

Re: Super Robot Wars Z 2

This is the single most epic series list ever put to SRW (the second being, of course, the original Z). It's so audacious you can't even imagine it being a hoax. I mean, multiple Votoms entries, Geass, Dai-Guard, frigging TTGL?! In one game?! Not to mention 00, Wing TV again (finally!), God Mars and Getter: Sekai Saigo no Hi in a game with non-gimped Supers, then all the returning awesomeness from Z (albeit apparently only including the essentials)... Wow. I don't know how they're gonna contain all that on a UMD but that is going to be one hell of a game.

Yes yes yes yes yessss

I agree with everybody else in this topic: best series list in a SRW game so far.

According to this image it's the series (not that there's much difference anyway)

And here are a few more scans not in the OP post. (stolen from Google)

Re: Super Robot Wars Z 2

Some more new info from NeoGAF:
-They moved the platform 2 or 3 times during development (speculation hats on) trying to figure out where the most users who would play it were
-The game uses a new REAL TYPE cutin style for the Gundams. You see it in the Wing picture in the scan, but all Gundams will have it (can't tell, scan is crappy)
-From the series being brought over from Z, only the main units and characters are coming over
-the game will be fun and easy to play like Z was
-They removed the squad system from Z because they want the game to be simple since it's on a handheld
-The game has more missions than any other handheld SRW
-Trailer will be out next week January 12

Re: Super Robot Wars Z 2

It just hit me looking at the series list again. This game will have a version of Roji-Ura No Uchuu Shonen. And it will be next to impossible to get out of my head when I hear it. Not that I'd really want it to. Speaking of music, this also means we're going back to Just Communication and maybe Rythem Emotion for Wing instead of yet another remix of Last Impression. :mrgreen:

Why am I not remotely surprised by this? The only question now is whether or not Impulse, Legend, and Akatsuki gundams count as main units; I'm kind of wondering with Beck RX3 from Big O, even if only for being a joke character.
-The game uses a new REAL TYPE cutin style for the Gundams. You see it in the Wing picture in the scan, but all Gundams will have it (can't tell, scan is crappy)
I don't get it. :? What does "real type cut in" mean?
