Unused Sprites#

Gundam Sentinel#

Sprite sheets for mobile suits from Gundam Sentinel can be found in the file EFF/EFF2D.BIN. Units from Sentinel do not appear in the game at all. However, had they appeared, it would have been their only other appearance in the series apart from Dai 4 Ji Super Robot Taisen.

This needs some investigation.
Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page.
Specifically: Check if unused animations for those sprites also exist.
