Recently, I’ve been playing a game I really enjoyed as a kid, and it still holds up: Metal Warriors for SNES. I think it’s pretty well-known now, but back then I rented it on a whim since it didn’t even have a label on the cartridge, just the name written with a permanent marker.


I probably expected something like Gundam Wing: Endless Duel, but Metal Warriors turned out to be a really pleasant surprise. Anyone have a mecha game they still hold dear? Maybe someone knows another hidden gem. The genre definitely has its fans, but it’s still pretty niche.

Third person shooter for the PSP where you pilot some Universal Century Mobile Suits from the Gundam series
Gundam Battle Tactics
Gundam Battle Royalee
Gundam Battle Chronicle
Gundam Battle Universe
Gundam Assault Survive

For the SNES have you tried
Assault Suits Valken /Cybernator
Front Mission Gun Hazard
 
I had and loved Metal Warriors as a kid too. The VS multiplayer in particular was crazy fun.
 
- My favourite mecha game:


Buy mech, customize it, enjoy cyberpunk situations and listen to kick ass soundtrack!!! In this game imagine me entering da arena and swinging my giant katana and cut mecha into pieces and activate my invisibility tech to go away from the crime scene lolol.

- My favourite Armored Core game:


Tons of customization and pew pew mindless mecha action fun!!!

- I'm stretching but I love the way how life sim RPG with "mecha"-like vehicle you can pilot in this game:


- I'm stretching it a lot further and say I really loved when HAWKEN was online. Me still crying an ocean!!!:


But good thing it's playable with bots via "Hawakening".

Custom robo
Little battlers experience
Gotcha force
Front mission(up until 4)
 
I LOVE MECHA! I mean, just look at my profile pic, that's supposed to be me cosplaying as Domon from G Gundam xD

And for my favorite mecha games, I'm going to choose the following:

Gundam Breaker 3 (Vita): I love the customization, creating your own Gundam is really fun and, while I prefer Breaker 2's campaign, I think that Breaker 3's campaign isn't bad, just a little repetitive sometimes.

Tech Romancer (DC): basically a Super Robot Wars game made by Capcom, it's a great homage to several mecha shows, the graphics are good, the soundtrack is great, I like most of the stories, and you can play as Jin Saotome from Cyberbots too! I'm so sad it wasn't ported to PCs with the recent collection... ç.ç

Super Robot Wars J (GBA): this game. THIS. FREAKING. GAME. This game was one of the catalysts for my transformation into a mecha fan, thanks to SRW J I discovered Mazinkaiser, G Gundam, Tekkaman Blade, Nadesico, and the game is GREAT! Probably one of the better gateway entries in the Super Robot Wars franchise, not being too hard but not too easy either.

Metal Bringer (PC): one I recently finished, and I had a blast! Metal Bringer starts kinda slow, with you having access to a Labor (basically a android body) and having to deal with Arms (the giant robots) while using whatever you can find at the time (so... heavy machinery), but with time you can get A LOT of good pieces to use, you can create your own Arms to explore the randomly generated areas and destroy the enemies in seconds. It is a time sink, but I highly recommend!

For honorable mentions I'm going to say Super Robot Wars: Original Generation (GBA) for introducing me to the SRW franchise and Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner (PS2) that I love it even if I played the PS3 version without any patches.
