While initially the Earth Federation was willing to accept them into the Space Colonies, the assassination of the diplomatic mission results in the war with the extraterrestrials.
Meanwhile, an empire on the Moon declares independence and assaults the Federation, and the Mars Colony goes missing after an attack by an unknown enemy.
On Earth, monsters of Dr.
Hell ( Mazinger Z ) start rampaging through again.
The only saving grace for the Federation is the 13th Independent Battalion, Londo Bell (from Char's Counterattack ).
However, none of the members of the team really know who sowed the seeds of war.
The battalion bands together to find out.
This is the first game in the Super Robot Wars/Taisen franchise released for the Game Boy Advance.
Graphics-wise, the game shares many similarities with the games in the Classic timeline, especially F and F Final .
Units in combat do not have battle animations and they are drawn in the "super-deformed" style.
In terms of gameplay, the game is a classic tactical RPG with many Japanese robot franchises.
Unlike the previous entries in the series, the game introduces a loyalty system, where units that assist other units by way of support attack or defense can increase their damage or defense rate every time they do it.
Also, defensive items such as shields now have their own separate HP bar.
Like other SRW games starting from F , F Final and Alpha , players are given the option of choosing their main character and their robot type.
Depending on the choice of the type of robot or choices made by the player character mid-game, the story can branch out in different directions.
During intermissions, players can customize pilot skills and upgrade their current robot roster.
About Sega Dreamcast
Sega's final console, the Dreamcast (1998/1999), was ahead of its time with built-in internet connectivity and an influential library, but a short commercial lifespan cut its game catalog short. That abrupt end means Dreamcast print runs were smaller across the board than a longer-lived console would have had, and it's now one of the more actively collected fifth/sixth-generation systems specifically because of that scarcity.
Gamevaro tracks Super Robot Taisen Alpha for Sega Dreamcast with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Super Robot Taisen Alpha to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This DC release dates back to 2001.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Super Robot Taisen Alpha, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Sega Dreamcast titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
