There’s a rumor that this specific pressing has slightly faster load times on the stage transition screens. I timed it against my original black-label copy—about 0.3s faster. Could be disc rot? Could be placebo? I choose to believe. Super Robot Taisen F -Japan- -Rev B- -21M-

If you’ve never played F, start with the tutorial scenarios. Don’t jump into “DC War” without grinding on Stage 2. And always, always upgrade the ZZ Gundam’s High Mega Cannon. You’ll thank me later. Could be placebo

Unlike the original Japanese pressing, Rev B (likely 1.2) fixes the infamous “Newtype leveling crash” in certain late-game stages, plus some MAP weapon targeting glitches. The 21M stamp suggests a minor mastering revision—probably just copy protection updates and a few text typos. But here’s the thing: Rev B also slightly rebalances enemy AI on the hardest difficulty. Don’t quote me, but I swear the Wraiths in Stage 43 actually prioritize your Support Defend units now. Don’t jump into “DC War” without grinding on Stage 2

Only if you’re a collector or really want the most polished standalone F experience. Most people should just play the Saturn version (better sound) or the PS1 F Final combo. But for purists? Rev B is the hidden gem.
