Video games
With a franchise as large as Transformers, it is surprising how few video games have been produced for it. Further, around half of those were released solely for the Japanese market.
トランスフォーマー コンボイの謎 aka "Mystery of Convoy") (Famicom)- Transformers (Commodore 64)
- Transformers: Battle to Save the Earth (Commodore 64)
- トランスフォーマー ザ★ヘッドマースターズ (Transformers: The Headmasters) (Famicom Disc System)
- Beast Wars (GBC)
- Beast Wars: Transformers (PC, PS1)
- Beast Wars: Transformers Transmetals (N64, PS1)
- Transformers (PS2)
- Transformers (Atlus, PS2)
Though not a Transformers game, the Konami's PS2 game DreamMix TV: World Fighters (only released in Japan), features numerous Transformers as either playable characters or cameos. Due to copyright issues, it is highly unlikely that the game will ever leave the country.
In the 90s, a game based on Generation 2 was supposedly in development for the Super NES console, but the project was dropped. It has been rumored that this project then evolved into the SNES SuperFX chip enabled game Vortex, largely due to timing and the fact that the game involved a polygon-based transforming robot.
