Super Robot Wars J

Judgement features several systems used in previous games, as well as new ones. They include: Favorite Series First introduced in Super Robot Wars MX , this system allows players to increase the number of possible upgrade steps for chosen units and increases the number of experience points and credits one can earn. Unlike MX , three series can be chosen at once and an additional three during subsequent replays, until all 15 series have been chosen. Also, bonus level are variable depends on the series, series that have more units or bigger contribution to the story (especially Brain Powerd , Gundam SEED and Nadesico this time) receives less bonus than series having fewer units.

Relationship Bonuses First introduced in Super Robot Wars 64 , units earn better dodging and attacking stats by standing adjacent to a character they are emotionally attached with, usually from the same series. This is determined by either blue orbs (friendship) or hearts (attraction). Unit Switching A new system, whenever a unit docks with any battleship, it has the option of switching out with another unit not initially sortied. However, the number of times this is possible for a battleship can be upgraded to a maximum of three.

BGM Change First introduced in Super Robot Taisen: Original Generation 2 and refined in the 3rd Super Robot Wars Alpha , players can switch a playable character's theme song with another, allowing almost any song to play for a given unit. Songs for some special attacks will always override the chosen music. Replay Bonuses Upon completion of a playthrough, starting another run of the game using previously completed data allows the player to choose the protagonist's set of "Spirit Commands", character abilities akin to magic spells. Points allocated to character stats are kept, including unit and weapon upgrades on subsequent replays.

Fully Animated Sprites All attacks are now fully animated instead of only a few certain attacks getting additional animation.
