Let's assume for a moment that Super Robot Wars Omega doesn't count (it's a mobile gacha game and it features pretty much everything from Doraemon to Godzilla).
Anyway, to those who aren't in the know - Super Robot Wars is a Japanese SRPG game where you control units around the map to defeat enemies or do objectives in a turn-based battle, featuring popular and obscure mecha franchises. It has series from Mobile Suit Gundam to Heroman. It eventually featured "original generation" (basically publisher-owned) mecha in order to have a central character of sorts, but they still tie in various stories in various shows (most of the time - some franchises ended up as "units only" with no story whatsoever, like Virtua-On). They're also not limited to anime - as they have manga only, visual novel only, and even video game only mecha aboard their series!
But as much as many games they have churned, they haven't scratched that many mecha from those sources, in spite of them constantly bringing Seed Destiny, Dancouga Nova, Macross F and Gundam 00! So what mecha titles do you want to see in the game?
For me personally, I want to see these three.
Magic Knight Rayearth
Granted, MKR's magic guardian beasts don't really appear until halfway through of the first season (I think almost near the end), but they're hype as fuck and honestly the game needs more "out of there" mecha like magical types. And the whole story becomes really something fitting to SRW when they touch the second season.
J-Decker
Sucks people only know GaoGaiGar for the Brave series. J-Decker is pretty cool with its police motif (I don't think we had a police-themed SRW unit except maybe for Patlabor) and the cast is lovable. And we need more sentient mecha.
Digimon Xros Wars
Like I said in MKR, I want "out of there" mecha stuff, and honestly this show has it too. The whole of Shoutmon X's attacks pretty much screams super robot and the whole "fight an evil army" screams a scenario in SRW.
