It does seem odd to jump in mid-stream, but you gotta start somewhere.
That is if it's even true.

How did I miss this news. I will be legit shocked if we actually get this over here.
On a related note, I'm currently playing SRW J right now. Fun game, just wish it was a bit harder. Calvina is the better protagonist than Towa though, I'll say that much. Regardless this getting brought over would keep me motivated to finish the game.

Hey if it does come over, you'll get to see all the ways to translate "I won't miss!" and "There you are!"

And stuff like "Too slow!" and "Pierce through!".
A SRW game with English VA would be very interesting to see imo.

I'm guessing it's going to be in Japanese with English subs like the other recent "niche" Bandai-Namco products.
Still need official confirmation. Has anyone found that trailer without that gaming website's graphic overlays?
The voiced dialogue is already repeated in the text boxes, it would be very easy to just translate that.

Would likely never happen though. IIRC, Banpresto only allows their games to be released overseas with the original dub intact. Might be wrong though.
Didn't know this existed, but guess I should use it, haha. Started playing SRW games like, last year, I guess, and since then I got through J and Z2-1 and Z2-2 (only read summaries for Z because to be honest I was mainly interested in Setsuko's route and there wasn't a nice llittle quasi-TL guide for her route), and am quite loving the series.
Now bought Z3-1 a couple days ago and have been playing it without upgrades so far for... some reason (to be fair it's because I can't decide what to spend my money on, and same for PP, with the removal of Continuous Action I feel abandoned lol). Got to Stage 11 (Space Route) and god, I'm not sure if it's because this is my first SRW game with squads or the lack of upgrades, but I'm finding this one much, much harder than past Z games so far.
Grunts seem to have more HP, the whole 'starting the stage with 50% of your max SP" thing also really gets to you as you can't use Attune and other useful spirits as carefreely as you'd like and all. And then both bosses showed up and I couldn't hit them reliably at all, lol.
Anyhow, all this just to say hi, lol. Guess I'm off to try it another time and see if I can beat it!

Welcome to the club. We have unrealistic expectations, and broken dreams, about localizations.
Fuck yes.

For the love of god, use the Vacant Soul theme! That is all I ask!!
That was one of my favorite boss tracks and thought it was kinda wasted on a minor guy likWHAT THE FUCK IS THAT DESIGN!? IT'S A GODDAMN DRAGON SHARK WHALE MAN THING!!
Like Nature, Einst storyline will find a way. But wasn't Geist fitted with a Jetzt core? Jetzt are silver but this thing is bright red like the Einst.
GIMME A RELEASE DATE!!
I like the last one that's like a skeleton SRX. Rest are ok. I'm probably in the minority but I'm not really a fan of the Einst looking ones with organic wings and stuff. Prefer mecha wings.
Are these all originals or are they from J/64? I never played the pre-PS2/DS entries so I don't have a frame of reference.
Hope we get a more fleshed out trailer at some point and a release date. Guessing it's a first week in April SRW anniversary release.

Bellzelute, Granteed and Raftclans, along with the associated characters, are all from J. Touya and Calvina were the selectable pilots, Bellzelute, Granteed and Coustwell (so far unseen in MD) selectable mecha. The Raftclans was a recurring enemy ace machine, and unlockable if you cleared J with the other three, although you were stuck with a crappy enemy mook machine (The Vorlent?) until the obligatory mid-game upgrade.
Awesome. Hope it's a good entry so more people get to enjoy good SRW. I'm still kind of worried this is going to be some half-assed expansion-like entry and the small size is the reason it's getting an English translation, but hopefully the fears end up being unfounded.
Will be nice if it sells and 3rd OGs whenever it comes out gets an English release. 2nd OGs was pretty awesome (outside the first 17 maps) and the lack of a US release was a shame.

WTF!
I still don't get why they keep showing OGs anime footage to prologue the story.
OG Timeline:
OG1/OG2/1st OGs/OG Anime - Stuff happens
2nd OGs/Dark Prison - A lot of stuff happens after that
Is Moon Dwellers supposed to be taking place after 1st OGs and simultaneously at the same time as 2nd OGs like Dark Prison? That doesn't make sense since SRX and other mainline units are shown in the reveal picture. If the main OGs cast is in...it should be after 2nd OGs which in that case the OGs anime really shouldn't have any relevance to the story.
It's just kind of confusing to me.

I'm pretty sure it's because it makes for decent trailer filler.
I'll take my baby steps where I can get them - Tatsunoko Vs Capcom's localization happened, Project X Zone apparently did better outside Asia than in it, so if a full crossover SRW in English is to ever happen, using an OG to test the waters is an understandable step.

Well holy shit. It happened.
Thank you for announcing before the JP version came out. I will now support the localized version.
And for God sake, PHYSICAL RELEASE.

That $69.99 price point is a bit higher than I was expecting for an Asian version. Looks like it's still a placeholder.
Gotta say, the updates on the new OG game since the reveal are reaaaaaally slow for a SRW. Game definitely isn't making the yearly April SRW anniversary month.
Seems like every OGs game, this is behind schedule. Wouldn't be surprised to see some delays after they announce the release date.

Nice. I'm good with June. No more rpgs/srpgs coming out after Star Ocean next week until Persona 5/FFXV come out in probably September/Oct/Nov, so SRW time for summer works for me.
