Super Robot Wars Gaiden: Masou Kishin: The Lord Of Elemental

Super Robot Wars Gaiden: Masou Kishin (スーパーロボット大戦外伝 魔装機神) is a RPG developed by Winkysoft and published by Banpresto, which was released exclusively in Japan in 1996 for the SNES. The game was re-released for the Nintendo DS and PSP as Super Robot Wars OG Saga: Masou Kishin – The Lord Of Elemental.

This was the first Super Robot Wars title to give original characters the spotlight, exclusively. This particular title follows the storyline of the Masou Kishin and its cast. It is also the first game in the series to feature non-superdeformed graphics, unlike most Super Robot Wars titles, and the first to feature a 45° angle view of the map (often used since). It is also the only regular game where a unit's elevation and the direction it is facing at the end of its turn are important.
