Title Super Robot of 1978's third installment of the "Romantic Trilogy" metaseries following Combattler V and Voltes V. Piloted by Kazuya Ryuzaki, Daimos predominately uses martial arts, unarmed or with various weapons, and is portrayed in games as a powerful melee fighter with extremely limited ranged options.
A laser is a focused beam of light, invisible through the air without some other medium (such as smoke) to illuminate it. Lasers are often used in video games as part of a targeting system, or as an offensive weapon in their own right.
Mechs (or Mecha) are humanoid-like pilot driven vehicles often depicted in media as a combat machine. Early examples of Mech/Mecha in video games are often derived from early manga and anime as well as table-top games.
An explosive ordinance propelled by a rocket engine designed to blow an object to smithereens. A missile is often guided, in some way, to its target. For example; by laser, remote control, or computer/GPS.
A mechanical lifeform, typically exhibiting superhuman abilities, that can be found in games as either the main protaganist or as powerful enemies or allies.
When your robot comes from your grandfather's basement, performs impossible transformations, is more powerful than an entire nation's military or otherwise kicks reason to the curb, it's more than a mech; it's a Super Robot.
A combining Super Robot formed by five vehicles, appearing in the 1977 anime of the same name. Piloted by the Voltes team lead by Kenichi Gou, it was the second in the "Romantic Trilogy" following Combattler V and preceeding Daimos, and is often paired with Combattler V in games.
The yo-yo has been used in a few games as a weapon. An example of yo-yo use as a weapon is seen in the NES game, StarTropics.
