New features
New features
• Original characters and robots made by Banpresto were introduced in this game. Unlike the other characters, they are not licensed from other series and usually referred to as Banpresto Originals by fans. The Super Robot Taisen: Original Generation series is composed entirely of these characters and robots. • The first game merely featured the robots, which were regarded as sentient. This game includes the pilots from the robots respective series. • This was the first game in the canon to have an actual story. The first game had barely anything resembling a plotline aside from an opening demo sequence, whereas this game now includes character intermissions between battle maps. • Certain enemy characters can be induced to defect to the player's side, though unlike the first game, not every one can be induced to defect. • An ingame shop exists that allows the player to use money (earned by destroying enemy robots) to buy upgrades for the robots, a concept that would be revisited in Super Robot Wars Alpha Gaiden and Super Robot Wars Z.
