Trivia / Super Robot Wars 64

• Colbert Bump: The game received a surge of interest thanks to Youtube channel Thabeast721 creating a two and a half hour long video describing his experience with the game as part of his series where he plays through every single Nintendo 64 game to completion.
• Executive Meddling: It's suggested one of the reasons why this game's Original Generation, per Word of God, will explicitly never appear in Super Robot Wars: Original Generation is because Super Robot Wars 64 was co-developed between Banpresto and Monegi, Inc., the latter a Nintendo-Hudson Soft joint venture. Because of copyright laws, it bars the original characters from ever appearing outside of 64 in any capacity. This could also explain why Super Robot Wars Advance reuses the 64 mechanical designs for its original Mecha, as their aesthetics make them mirror images of each other (for example, the Angelg from Advance is an Expy of the Simurgh Splendid from 64).
  • What makes this amusing is that the Valkyrie mechs are one big Shout-Out to BattleTech, which was so plagued by copyright issues that they got their own page. One wonders if the designers saw this coming.
