From the makers of Alpha, Original, and J, we bring you W.

Story- N/A- I can't really read Japanese, but I can tell you the chatting and movements are really convincing with a Warning screen flashing, and the ability to scroll through their text backwards or forwards, it seems good, but if your like most of us, you won't be able to read it.

Gameplay- 10/10- This is your standard map, grid, battle game. It'll remind you of Advance Wars, Fire Emblem, and the other Super Robot Taisen games.
You control their movements and can customize them however you see fit.
It's easy, fun, and there's entertaining battle scenes.

Graphics-10/10- This game is probably the best example of the DS's potential. Many people say that DS graphics pale in comparison to the PSP, the same generation handheld the DS has competed with, but this game's graphics show that the DS can match the PSP. Battle scenes use amazing graphics, and the sprites are small and realistic. Sometimes, you'll we wondering am I watching anime or am I watching a battle scene?

Music- 8/10- This is the part where the game goes downhill. The sound and background music are catchy, dramatic, and you can set them all to the same one or different ones depending on your preferences. But it gets annoying like most music you hear in RPG's, since if you leave it alone for a hour, it'll still be playing the Mazinger Z theme song. But it's very good quality and sound refreshing the first 100 battles like it was in the anime it came from.

Difficulty- 8/10- Not all that hard. It's just annoying sometimes how the RNG loves to screw with you making opponents hit at 10%-25%, while you miss at 80%. The save function makes this easily preventable, but reseting for every time you miss is just silly, and cheap.

Replay Value- 10/10- Like all Super Robot Taisen games, things carry over and this game is no exception. That feature makes the game better and better each playthrough.

Overall- 9/10- This game is just amazing. It's like Super Smash Brothers, except it's using a buncha different robots, with different licensing.
