36 of 36 · most liked firstI had the pleasure of working on the English loc for Assault Suit Leynos 2 Saturn Tribute! It was a dream come true to officially localize a Saturn game, and a blast to get to play in the AS universe fresh off the excellent Valken rerelease and Leynos 1 remake. It’s out on Steam and Xbox today!
unlabelledView post →Target Earth? Assault Suit Leynos? Genesis? Windows? It doesn't matter what you call it or what you play it on, which version you pick up or whether it's one with checkpoints or limited lives. Assault Suit Leynos is an underrated Masaya gem that you should play.
unlabelledView post →idk (or care) what opinion on these games is now but they got middling reviews at the time & I bought them anyway as I wanted to play them Assault Suit Leynos - MD Hokuto No Ken - MD Psycho Dream - SFC Ushio & Tora - SFC 1st DBZ fighting game - SFC I'd have bought Run Saber if it had released in Jp
unlabelledView post →Another must-play mecha game for the SNES is Cybernator / Assault Suits Valken. It's stunning how much visual detail they packed in. And the soundtrack is great! (Its sister game, Target Earth / Assault Suit Leynos is on the Genesis/MD, but not quite as polished) #gaming #retrogames #videogames
unlabelledView post →www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rMb... this person is a known simpleton (proof = he follows me🤔) Ignore his terrible opinion & learn this game as it's awesome. Anything you ever hear people attribute to Assault Suit Leynos or Valken was done here 1st
unlabelledView post →My latest pickups. Shinobi is in excellent condition and Assault Suit Leynos 2 is a fun little game on the Saturn though can be a bit too tough for its own good at times! The release has the usual helpful modern bells and whistles such as rewinding and saving but otherwise is just an emulated port.
unlabelledView post →Before my first post on the next kit I have a recommendation. Check out the Assault Suit Leynos remake, it's a pretty tough yet very enjoyable short game. Sadly, it seems like it isn't available on the Playstation store anymore, but thankfully it's on Steam. #AssaultSuitLeynos #重装機兵レイノス
unlabelledView post →3 - A game that is underrated? I'm going to go with Assault Suit Leynos/Target Earth for the Mega Drive. It is difficult and most ignore it for Valken/Cybernator but I think it is such a fantastic game that requires careful choices and strategies. Feels very calculated.

unlabelledView post →It's just a smidge above 500 but Hardcore Mecha stood out to me just scrolling through my list. It's like if some Super Robot Wars fans made an Assault Suit Leynos sort of thing. Enjoyed it way more than I was expecting. store.steampowered.com/app/746580/H...
unlabelledView post →Next finish: Assault Suit Leynos A 2015 remake of the game that came before Cybernator in the Assault Suits series. Though there are some modern concessions, it still pretty much plays like Cybernator. I'd say it's more forgiving but overall less good in some indefinable way. Still decent though.

unlabelledView post →So is Assault Suit Leynos like a spin-off from Leisure Suit Larry? Or is it the same game, just with a regional (and oddly more accurate) localisation?

unlabelledView post →I say "shooters" because Gundam (& the two Zeta Gundam games) are really more akin to something like Assault Suit Leynos or Valken, though there's certainly a ton of shooting going on. Meanwhile, the Macross: DYRL game, to my recollection, is absolutely a shooter, by most definitions.
unlabelledView post →Wow... was not expecting Assault Suit Leynos 2 to get getting a remaster worldwide release in 2024... Especially since it was a Sega Saturn game. I'm for this. www.gematsu.com/2023/09/assa...
unlabelledView post →It's more like a side scrolling action game than a shmup I guess, strictly speaking. The closest thing I can think of to a "Gundam shmup" aside from this is Assault Suit Leynos, but that's just a very shmup like side scrolling mech game that heavily rips from Gundam for its story. It's pretty good
unlabelledView post →It's the 1/35 Assault Suit Leynos from the game of the same name (or the original English release "Target Earth". It's made by a company called Plum who seem to specialise in kits based on niche video games. It's been a much tougher build than most Bandai / Moderoid kts but it's turned out well!
unlabelledView post →Packaged PlaySwitch 5 version of Assault Suit Leynos 2 Saturn Tribute for $35? Why consider that when the DL version is $25? A new English localization, several game-specific options and QoL features, as well as the usual emulation wrapper settings. It's a more demanding game than Leynos and Valken!
unlabelledView post →here is Target Earth for Sega Genesis. This game was released in Japan as Assault Suit Leynos, and it is the first game in the Assault Suits series. In the USA, the game was released by a DreamWorks that had nothing to do with Steven Spielberg.
unlabelledView post →Technically Assault Suit Leynos 2 isn't a remake. It's the original Sega Saturn game with some quality-of-life updates and finally in English for the first time after 30 years. It's also on Switch and Steam and maybe Xbox but I can't check right now.
unlabelledView post →Rest when you can. I almost finished the Assault Suit Leynos (2D mecha game) remake & the final boss made me rage quit. I was done. 😤😤 Hours later, I find out rerelease of the sequel (Assault Suit Leynos 2) comes out on Friday & looks awesome. Guess I gotta finish then. 😅😅😅😅

unlabelledView post →Only played like... 2 minutes before work, but Assault Suit Leynos 2 works pretty alright in this Zebra engine. The biggest shock is that the translation isn't overlayed!! It seems they actually modified the game ISO. I'm just shocked considering LRG didn't do that to Valis despite way more budget.
unlabelledView post →A Sega Genesis game called Target Earth, aka Assault Suit Leynos. I remember getting so mad I threw the cartridge at the wall, which knocked something loose and made me unkillable to finally beat it lmao Others like MechWarrior 2, Armored Core 2, Ghost in the Shell on the PS1 and such also helped.
unlabelledView post →damn, "Assault Suit Leynos 2" is absurdly short, you're better off just playing Cybernator/Assasult Suits Valken for the SNES than the Saturn game that only released in japan and only has 7 very short missions
unlabelledView post →Assault Suit Leynos A type of game I should be easy to fuck with. yet it didn't. enough things weren't quite clicking right that it made my brain go no just no. i gave up after i failed stage 3 one too many times. Dropped

No download required and worked with no issues. Installation is fine by me as it still works completely offline.

unlabelledView post →I forgot until last night that Assault Suit Leynos 2 Saturn Tribute is out! It's supposed to be on all major platforms but so far I've found it on Steam for $25. It's the third game in the Assault Suit/s series behind Leynos 1/Target Earth for Genesis and Valken/Cybernator for SNES.
unlabelledView post →Yeah came out as cybernator in the US. Removed a suicide scene that the modern port restored. The game was remade on PS2 in Japan. Leynos 2 was stuck in Japan on Saturn but coming west this year. Assault Suit Leynos (Target Earth on Genesis) got a remake on PS4/PC a few years ago.
