Having finally found out about a translation for this I decided to try it and..... yeah Custom Robo rocks!!!
Story wise, it's very similar to Pokemon in that you compete in tournaments and have to stop an evil team but it's such a fun time.
Custom Robo shines in it's battles and it's cool to see how much it nailed in it's first outing. Mechanically there's basically everything from the GCN/DS games just a bit more polygony haha.
It is a little disappointing that it's only 1 on 1 battles but I know V2 brings in 2 on 2 battles so I can kinda understand wanting to focus on 1 on 1 in the first title and making sure it ran well.
The characters are fun, the combat is engaging and the story is decent enough and it all makes for an incredibly solid first outing for an extremely underrated and underappreciated series
