==Games== {{Main|List of Super Robot Wars video games}} Most are standalone games, whose background stories may involve the plots of the included series, but no other ''Super Robot Wars'' titles. However, there are several main continuities existing with a large [[Multiverse]]: ;Classic :Consists of the ''2nd'', the ''3rd'', ''EX'', ''F'' and ''F Final'' games (in that order).<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/superrobotwars/superrobotwars.htm |title=Super Robot Taisen (Classic Series) (Retrospective) |publisher=www.hardcoregaming101.net |date=2011-08-12 |access-date=2017-10-04 |archive-date=2013-10-27 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131027120034/http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/superrobotwars/superrobotwars.htm |url-status=dead }}</ref> ''F'' and ''F Final'' replaced the ''4th'', while ''2G'' is not considered [[canon (fiction)|canon]], due to its non-inclusion in the ''Complete Box'' set. The side-story ''Masō Kishin - The Lord Of Elemental'' is divided into two parts: "Part One" occurs before the 2nd and "Part Two" after the ''4th'' (''4th'' was released before ''F'' and ''F Final''). The primary antagonist organization of this series is known as '''DC''' ('''D'''ivine '''C'''rusaders). ;Masou Kishin :Consists of ''Gaiden: Masou Kishin - The Lord of Elemental'', ''OG Saga: Masou Kishin 2 - Revelation of Evil God'', ''OG Saga: Masou Kishin 3 - Pride of Justice'' and ''OG Saga: Masou Kishin F – Coffin of the End'' (in that order). ''Gaiden: Masou Kishin - The Lord of Elemental'' for the SFC was ported as a remake for the NDS (with a series first use of the ''OG Saga'' prefix replacing ''Gaiden'') and later as a remake of that DS version in a limited edition bundle with part 2 of this series, named ''OG Saga: Masou Kishin I & II'', for the PSP. The last two titles in this series were released for the PS3 (the former also was ported to the PS Vita). ;Alpha :Consists of ''Alpha'', ''Alpha Gaiden'', ''Alpha 2'' and ''Alpha 3'' games (in that order). "Part One" of ''Masō Kishin - The Lord Of Elemental'' also provides relevant information, taking place before Alpha. ;Compact :Consists of ''Compact'', ''Compact 2'' and ''Compact 3'' games for the [[Wonderswan]] (in that order). The first series game on WS ''Compact'' was remade as ''Compact for WonderSwan Color'' for the Wonderswan Color. ''Compact 2'' was released as three chapters for the ''[[WonderSwan]]''; the trilogy was later compiled with updated visuals, sound and new content as ''Impact'' for the PS2. ;Impact :Consists of ''Impact'' and ''MX'' games for the PS2. Previously, ''Compact 2'' was released as three chapters for the ''[[WonderSwan]]''; the trilogy was later compiled with updated visuals, sound and new content as ''Impact'' for the PS2. Despite the sharing of gameplay mechanics between all of the Wonderswan games, and the similarities between ''Impact'' and ''MX'', ''Compact 2'' and ''Impact'' are not tied to any other games in the series. ''MX'' for the PS2 is seen as a direct sequel to ''Impact'' as it reuses several of the same series of the latter and has similar gameplay elements and much of its soundtrack remixed from the one in ''Impact''. ''MX'' was ported to the PSP with minor adjustments and additions. ;Original Generation :This series does not feature any manga or anime characters at all, instead starring the "Banpresto Originals", original characters made specifically for previous games in the series. This timeline draws upon from all previous continuities. Both Original Generation games for the GBA which were released in the US were compiled with updated visuals and sound as ''Super Robot Wars Original Generations'', followed by the sequel ''Super Robot Wars Original Generation Gaiden'', the remake version of ''Masō Kishin - The Lord Of Elemental'', ''Masō Kishin 2: Revelation of Evil God'', ''2nd Super Robot Wars Original Generation'', ''Masō Kishin 3: Pride of Justice'', ''Masō Kishin F: Coffin of The End'' and ''Super Robot Wars Original Generation: The Moon Dwellers''. Also part of the Original Generation series is the ''Endless Frontier series'', composing of ''Endless Frontier'' and ''Endless Frontier Exceed'', which is set after ''Original Generation Gaiden''. This continuity was the only one to have had titles officially released in the West. ''The Moon Dwellers'' is one of the first in the series that has an English translation for the Japanese market. ;Z :This continuity consists of ''Z'', ''Z Special Disk'', ''Z2'', and ''Z3'' in that order. The story focuses on the Twelve Spheres, which play an important part in the game's story line. This timeline is well-known for introducing an extremely large amount of debuting series, on a scale that previous ''SRW'' titles have never reached. In addition, ''Z3'' was the first ''SRW'' game to have HD sprites. ;International Era :Consists of ''V, X, T'' and ''30''. This continuity is commonly named this due to ''SRW V'' being the first mainline game to receive official translation and release outside of Japan. Using the engine utilized in ''Z3'', these games are independent of each other plot-wise. ;Mobile games :Consists of ''X-Omega'' and ''DD''.'' X-Omega'' is a departure from ''SRW'''s usual turn-based strategy formula, and is more similar to a defense-type game, where units are placed and commanded to defend against invading enemies. It is known to have an extremely large number of debuting series, and also have non-mecha anime crossovers. :''DD'' returns to the usual ''SRW'' turn-based strategy formula, and battles are much more reminiscent of normal ''SRW'' games. However, players are only allowed to deploy 4 of their own units at a time, and instead of mechs being pulled from the gacha, attacks are instead.
