For those of whom have been waiting for Super Robot Wars Y, the latest game in the long running licensed giant robot tactical RPG series that debuted in 1991 on Game Boy (with its first sequel on NES that same year), it has officially hit the eShop, releasing on August 28th.
The series has been on a ton of Nintendo consoles over the years, in fact, the last four titles in the series (SRW V, X, T, and 30) have been on Switch, but not in the west (30 was global on Steam). This is the first time a global launch has happened for one of the licensed titles on consoles as well as PC (though the first two Original Generations games on GBA with no licensed mechs did come over).
Gundam, Mazinger Z, Getter Robo, all staples in the franchise. If you're curious to see the series lineup for this game, the release date trailer is here:

I hope some of you end up giving this series a try for the first time, because I'm four games in and having a blast.
