Added DiffLines:

* LuckBasedMission: Like its predecessor, ''Compact 2'' randomizes every character's Spirit Command list based on the player's [=WonderSwan=] bios information. One infamous casualty of this system is Dangaioh, who receives exactly one (very expensive) accuracy-raising command across ''all four pilots'' if the bios information is left blank.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Nerf}}: ''Compact 2'' removed natural double-movement from the player's units, likely due to the fact that it [[GameBreaker utterly demolished its predecessor's balance]].

* TakingTheBullet: ''Compact 2's'' claim to fame, aside from its originals and sheer length, is the fact that it introduced the Support system.

The second entry of the Wonderswan series of SuperRobotWars, the ''Super Robot Wars Compact 2'' story was ''so big'' it had to be separated into three parts: ''Earth Crisis'', ''Cosmoquake'' and ''Galaxy Showdown''. The story deals with the battle between Earth's forces and the extraterrestrial Einst, who seek to restart the world they deem too corrupted. The key to Einst's success or defeat lies within two cadets in the Earth Federation's forces, serving as the game's OriginalGeneration.

Arguably one of the more famous [=SRW=] entries, despite the obscure handheld system it started out on. It was later [[VideoGameRemake remade]] using the ''[[SuperRobotWarsAlpha Super Robot Wars Alpha Gaiden]]'' engine as ''Super Robot Wars Impact'', the series' first entry on the Sony PlayStation2, with all three games compiled onto one disc. In addition to introducing a new original character named Einst Alfimi, ''Impact'' adds two new series to the game: ''GGundam'' and ''MartianSuccessorNadesico''. Like the preceding ''SuperRobotWarsCompact'', Compact 2 and Impact features the "Free Route System": rather than following a linear plot, the games allow the player to choose the order to play certain scenarios in. This may affect the storyline or give the player an opportunity to unlock [[SecretCharacter hidden units and/or characters]].

** {{Ninja Senshi Tobikage}}'s opening theme, ''Love Survivor'', was already awesome, but Impact's version is [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULai8lcQ5iM undeniably one of the awesomest battle themes in the entire franchise]].

*** Eventually a few of these voice actors would go to voice characters from the EndlessFrontier series
* HumanAliens ([[{{Grendizer}} Duke and Maria Fleed]], [[{{Zambot 3}} The Zambot Team members]], 3/4s of the Dangaioh team, and [[NinjaSenshiTobikage the Zaboom and Rodarians]].)
* HumanityOnTrial (The Einst are disturbed by how warlike the Earthlings are and seek to KillEmAll and replace them with a new species in an AdamAndEvePlot, [[spoiler:using Kyosuke and Alfimi as its Adam and Eve]])
* ImprobableWeaponUser (Kyosuke's Alt Eisen uses a pile bunker and mecha-sized titanium ball bearings as weapons. When it's upgraded to the Riese, it can't even move with the extra armor: who in the right mind would ''want'' to use this machine?? Fortunately, he's the only one who can ever use it and factor in his ungodly luck, here's a true example of a weapon not fit for anyone ''but'' him)
* KarmicDeath (Gil Berg and Garimos from ''Dangaioh'' finally get it, after being {{Karma Houdini}}s in the series proper)
** Don't forget [[MartianSuccessorNadesico Kusakabe]] either. You finally get to blow up the bastard in Impact!
* KineticWeaponsAreJustBetter (In a setting where most Humongous Mecha are powered by AppliedPhlebotinum, tinkered by {{Cosmic Horror}}s, shoot FrickinLaserBeams and [[SphereOfDestruction Spheres Of Destruction]] and other unworldly powers, the RealRobot Alt Eisen uses solely solid-based weapons. Unfortunately, it's an AwesomeButImpractical unit, due to its specifications and difficulty in handling in-story. However, it functions on RuleOfCool, due to its pilot having been BornLucky and in his hands, is able to take it to a point where it rivals {{Super Robot}}s in damage capabilities)
* MacGuffin: The Star of La Mu.
* MakeMeWannaShout: [[{{Raideen}} God Voice, which is unlocked after performing a sequence of events.]]
* MetaMecha (Vikungfu and GP-03)
* MidSeasonUpgrade (Alt Eisen Reise, [[GetterRobo Getter Robo G]], [[{{Gundam 0083}} GP-03]], [[AuraBattlerDunbine Billbine]], [[GGundam God Gundam]], Shin GetterRobo and [[spoiler:Rein Weiss Ritter]]. [[MutuallyExclusivePowerups Unfortunately, you can't have the latter and Shin Getter at the same time]])
* MulticoloredHair (Gold and brown for Kyosuke)
* NinjaPirateZombieRobot (NinjaSenshiTobikage and GGundam units (Impact only))
* [[OneGameForThePriceOfTwo One Game For The Price Of Three]]
* NoOneCouldSurviveThat (Subverted: [[spoiler:Excellen ''didn't'' survive the shuttle accident; the meddling Einsts brought her BackFromTheDead]])
* OfficialCouple (Kyosuke x Excellen, of course)
* OverlyLongFightingAnimation
* PerkyFemaleMinion (Alfimi)
* ThePowerOfLove (Which grants Kyosuke and Excellen their CombinationAttack, complete with witty banter)
** Also slightly played at the same time: Excellen only ever calls it the "[[ShoutOut Love Love Attack]]"
** The original attack even shows up. The only difference is that Rain pilots the Shining Gundam for Impact.
* PutOnABus (The only characters from GGundam brought over for Impact are Allenby Beardsley, Domon Kasshu, Dr. Kasshu, Dr. Mikamura, Kyoji Kasshu, Rain Mikamura, Schwarz Bruder, Master Asia and Ulube Ishikawa)

* TrueFinalBoss ([[spoiler:[[CharsCounterattack Char Aznable]]]])
* VideoGameRemake[=/=]AdaptationExpansion (Impact combines the three Compact 2 games together and mixes fan favorites [[GGundam Mobile Fighter G Gundam]] and {{Martian Successor Nadesico}} in)
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair (Alfimi, [[spoiler: even when her origin is an orange-blonde MsFanservice]]...)
* ZergRush
