Just wondering if there were any mech games on the DC and if they are any good.

My friend was asking me.

These need to be half-way playable (at least) without speaking Japanese BTW

Hmmm... mecha games... I recall Choukousenki Kikaioh... Frame Gride... and some Gundam games as well.

Kikaoih is a nice fighting game, pretty enjoyable, bearable graphics, and an incredible story mode.

I bought Frame Gride but never tried it ^^;

And... I recall buying a Gundam game as well... but did not get to play it much, so I cannot tell ^^;

Gundam is a good game and has great action. Another game I can think of is Macross M3, but I heard that it was not all that great.

Search some import retailers, maybe they have some for sale.

i tried Macross M3, but I don't remember it being very mech-like

Is that the same as Tech Romancer in the US?

Yes, I forgot to mention Macross M3 as well ^^

Virtual On: Ortorio Tangram (I haven't even looked at the game in the last 2 years so I can't remember the exact spelling).

maybe I should be a little more specific -- how bout first-person type mech games.

I think the Gundam games are like that -- I'm not sure.

But I don't think any of the others mentioned are

Oratorio Tangram is only worth playing if you can get a twinstick. All of the control schemes SUCK.

Anyway, Gundam Side Story 0079 is good and in English. =)

Assuming you can even find it. One of the rarest US DC games. But very good.
