Meh. The original is better.
I’ve played the original Japanese version on the Famicom. I’ve played the fan-translated original Japanese version on an emulator. The charm of a 16-bit game that pushed the limits of the Super Nintendo cannot be overstated. The graphics are perfect, the sound and music is perfect, and the gameplay is very solid and addicting. This remake doesn’t have the 16-bit graphics that gave the original its charm. It doesn’t have the recognizable sound and music, animations are different (and not in a good way), and the overall feel of the game is just… off. Yes, they “updated” all of the graphics, sounds and music, but you have to wonder why they changed it so much when the originals worked just fine. This remake would’ve worked if it was just the 16-bit version but playable on a pc (without an emulator). When the Wanzers move on the battleground, they no longer have that skip with appropriate sound effect. They also changed what happened when a part of a Wanzer gets destroyed, when a Wanzer gets completely destroyed, what happens when you daze/ stun an enemy, how you choose body parts with Guide and Duel… it’s all, once again… just off. It was all fine how it was, but they changed it, and not for the better. Remember Super Mario Allstars? How they kept the original 8-bit Super Mario games exactly the same but made use of the 16-bit capabilities like shadows, music with a little more range, kept the original designs of the characters but gave them a little bit more detail and depth? This is what they could’ve done with Front Mission, but instead opted for radical changes on some parts, and even changed other parts so much they downgraded them. If you’ve never played the original game, this version is fine. It has everything, and is a solid and entertaining turn-based tactics game with some heavy duty military equipment. If you’ve played the original, this game will remind you how much better that version was.
