3''Super Robot Spirits'' (スーパーロボットスピリッツ Sūpā Robotto Supirittsu) is a 3D FightingGame for the Platform/Nintendo64 and a SpinOff from the usual ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' [[TurnBasedStrategy formula]]. [[NoExportForYou It was released only in Japan in 1998]]. Like ''VideoGame/ShinSuperRobotWars'', this game was largely forgotten because of its premise and obsucrity, but it served as the debut of the Judecca and its pilot Levi Tolar, who would reappear in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha''.

26* LetsYouAndHimFight: May double as ExcusePlot - the storyline of this game is this in a nutshell
27* MeaningfulName: "Tolar" is a loose romanization of the word "Torah", meaning "the law" in Hebrew. "Levi" is one of the twelve tribes of Israel in the [[Literature/TheBible Old Testament]] and are designated as the priests, who were charge of the law, hence Levi being the "Priestess of Judecca".
28* MoCapMecha: Shining Gundam and Master Gundam
29* NotDrawnToScale: This trope is in place, so everyone can fight on an even playing field.
30* NukeEm: The Walker Gallia's ICBM Toss

34%% * ThePowerOfTheSun: Daitarn 3
35* ThemeNaming: Subversion; while "Judecca" refers to Judas Iscariot, the disciple of Jesus Christ who betrayed him, each of the Judecca's attacks ("Caina", "Antenora", "Ptolomea" and "Judecca") corresponds to a section of the ninth and lowest circle of hell in Literature/TheDivineComedy.
36%% * ShockAndAwe: Voltes V
37* SNKBoss: The Judecca is really quick, has an infinite spirit bar, and almost NighInvulnerability when Levi performs any specials and supers.
