Man, the Japanese version is slated for release before my summer vacation, but there has been no word on the Asian English version. So it likely won't be on time...
While I could play both, it's not the kind of financial habit I want to get into lol.

New trailer still gives me iffy vibes about what kind of game this is. Bunch of generic grunt looking boss enemies + couple of OG units we've seen already + Ryouto and Compat Kaiser. Just seems very...limited in cast.
I mean we have the box art and we know a lot of the mainstays like SRX and Zanger, Kyosuke, and even 2nd OGs newbies like the SRW D guy are in, aka there's enough mainstays that it looks like this is a sequel to 2nd OGs. But if you hadn't seen the promo art pictures with all those guys the trailers totally make it look like an expansion pack Gaiden.
SRW trailers spoil the shit out of their games. It's so bad that I generally try not to even watch them after the first trailer since like 75% of the units and animations are spoiled. But we're on the second trailer and this is all they've got? Either there's gonna be a 3rd PV that's impressive and total spoilage, or they don't have much. Not sure what to think, but I'll play it either way. Just hope it's a solid entry since 2nd OGs was pretty great outside the intro.

This trailer is marked as the first (第1弾PV). The first one released was probably more of an announcement/teaser thing, especially considering it was fronted by The Inspector footage. A second trailer (第2弾PV) should be forthcoming, and will probably be the big meaty one.
Compare these:
BX 第1弾PV
BX 第2弾PV
Looks like there's be a 25th anniversary event for the series on June 4th: http://www.suparobo.jp/topics/2016/25th.html
I can't help but wonder about possible announcements...
I can't help but wonder about possible announcements...
Consideirng how they said that there's suppose to be a lot of SRW projects going on this year, and that event is already halfway into the year, there better be a crap load of announcements.
They havent come out and said all those projects are actual games though, so maybe there's an anime in there, maybe some remastered SRW games, maybe a boxed set collection of remastered games.
I would think that being the 25th anniversary, they would start a new main line SRW game. Its obvious though, isnt it? Since Z is over.
This.
Though here I am hoping for Alpha 2,3 ps3 versions, Generations and Generations Gaiden ps3 versions, and finally a The Best edition for Tengoku.
An R or W remakes would also be VERY welcome.
The Best for Tengoku would be very, very appealing. I finished Z3.1 the other day and I'm dying to start Z3.2. But got some unexpected stuff to pay for and running short on money for now, so a discount would definitely help! haha.
Here's hoping it happens. But to be fair, what I'd really go crazy about is a new main series announcement. Would love seeing SRW fix some of the recent robot shows where I dig the mechas but feel like the plot could get a little make-up, lol. Cross Ange, Valvrave, Majestic Prince... here's hoping some of them make it into the next game.
Oh and please save Star Driver from mobage.

Speaking of mobage, looks like they're adding some new mechs/series to SRW X-Omega.
Eureka Seven, Armored Trooper Votoms, Overman King Gainer, UFO Robo Grendizer, Evangelion: 1.0 You Are [Not] Alone, Evangelion: 2.0 You Can [Not] Advance...
... and Crayon Shin-Chan's Kantam Robo...
...
...
Wait... what?

I think I would have prefered Chogokin Hello Kity.
It's not like OG isn't alone (nor the first) with having maid outfits and non-combat formal wear.
Well yeah I know, but it just seems like its more likely than not. Unless theres a good story reason for it.

Well to be fair quiet a lot of characters are not military or are not part of standard earth military.

FWIW, here's the article in question : http://www.famitsu.com/news/201604/21104145.html
The twin battle system screenshot shows a lot of returning characters. The only notable omissions from that shot are Masoukishin units, but I guess the writing was on the wall for them.

Oh wow, Hugo and Josh are coming back? And they get to keep at least some of their upgraded mechs?? Nice~.
What's the problem with them ? Licensing issues with Winky Soft I guess ?

Winky soft doesn't exist anymore.
Didn't know that, thanks... so where does that leave Masaki and friends ?

Sorry if I made it sound that way, I just meant that their story is pretty much done, and MK3 and "4" sold terribly. Which is why I already assumed we wouldn't be seeing these characters anymore.
Then again, if redshirts like Leona and Tusk can be in the game, they could have thrown us a couple of Masoukishin characters for the sake of it.

Well they filled for bankruptcy, so for now they are probably in limbo. Just have to wait and see where all of their rights and assets end up.

Thanks for the clarification.
I mean, even Russel is in it so why not, yeah.
Thanks for the link.
Banpresto/NamcoBandai will probably buy the LoE IP.

Hi everyone, new around here!
I've been a fan of this franchise since I was a kid, specially of the OG series (the first game i played was 4 and then LoE). I hope to see the masoukishin guys again in OG at least the other 3 heralds.
Just preordered the special edition of MD yesterday, less than 2 months now.
Regards!

Welcome.
This thread isn't too active but it will probably pick up around when Moon Dwellers releases.

From what I've read Moon Dwellers was her last performance.
Hearing her in there is going to be bittersweet =[

The Beach Dwellers side content has gone from being one of the silliest things to one of the saddest now...
Her passing actually spurred me to upload my first video to Youtube. It was my favorite scene from Divine Wars. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0_YTZPcBb0

Sad news
I knew Mizutani the most for the role of Excellen, I remember when I used to play Impact some years ago and found her voice to be somewhat catchy... R.I.P.

Here's Morikawa's response. He's pretty much saying she was always a very cheerful person. The last time they got to talk a lot was during her radio show's 20th anniversary and how he was very honoured to be invited. He's extremely sad.

Some news on MD: http://www.famitsu.com/news/201605/20105829.html
Now you can buy the skill to make Maximum Break with any character and a look at how the sprites are now that they are going away of the SD proportions.
