This list is for games with robots, including large robots piloted by humans. Bonus points if the games involve combat. No need to list every expansion, just the base game.
Although I am not a 12-16 year old, I love mecha, robots, and giant robots, especially when they are attacking each other. Hopefully we can all discover some great games involving robots. And combat.

Alien Squad Leader has a set of miniatures called "Hordes of the Future" which is presumably a nod to its inspiration. One of the armies is Mechanoid, which sounds like giant robots to me. The game is supposed to be quite good, and the rules are only 44 pages long.

Speaking about giant robots, no country in the world beside Japan has such a fanatic following on robots. Anime is one of the main export of Japan, and no Anime is as famous as Gundam.
This is a tactical/strategic wargame of the last battle in the Anime show Gundam.
The rules are being translated into English is posted. I also have a physical copy of the game.

Has many fans, and those look like robots to me, albeit steampunk. Arguably the best robot game out there.

The Heavy Gear series! In this, the third edition, rules have been streamlined somewhat to speed up gameplay. By the makers of Gear Krieg.

Robots! Not as large as I'd like, but capable of serious carnage. And that's the point, isn't it?

Oh, and what would this list be without the timeless classic in robot games? Certainly not complete!

Legions of Steel is a miniatures game set in the future, man vs. machine (robot). It's very similar to Space Hulk in that the playing surface is built by tiles showing corridors and rooms. I like some of the rules better than Space Hulk, plus the fact that I could find a copy of LoS for $20 when I would have to pay many times that for a copy of Space Hulk meant I bought LoS. The only problem I have with it is I have to paint the several pounds of lead that came in the game box!

This is pushing it, but giant robots can be selected as characters in this game, and conceivably could battle each other at some point. I have played this once, and the robot won. At least as good as Heroscape.

Just found out about this one. The rules are online, it's new, the minis are pre-painted and great looking.

They did make an anime sequel of Gundam and More, Z Gundam is the next anime series after M.S.Gundam same timeline and same universe 7 years after the war in M.S. Gundam.
And this is a tactical Wargame base on the series.
Also, I do have it in my collection

Another one of the games about Gundam.
This one is a tactical wargame, as there are scenarios which based on the episodes in the Gundam Anime series.
Rules are also being translated and post in BGG and also the counter scan, interested players can download and make their own copy and play.
Game represent all the space combat.
I also have a physical copy.

Alternate WWII history with giant mecha. I bought the rules and then sold them again. At a loss. Wish I had kept them. They really needed more fake photoshop pics to be truly awesome. I lament the fact that Memoir '44 doesn't have a war of the worlds expansion.

Titans are massive fighting machines as tall as skyscrapers. Each carries an arsenal of deadly weapons powered by the fury of its plasma reactor and is protected by energy shields and metres-thick armour. The ground trembles before these steel giants and whole cities are reduced to burning rubble by the earth shattering energies of their weapons.
Sitzl meant to add this game earlier but there was a typo. I'm amazed at all the mecha games lurking out there.

Now this is the game that Gundam MS war should be. The original Japanese Gundam ccg game released in the States in English.
The original Japanese Gundam ccg is very popular in Japan.
Much like a faster game of Magic TG, this game crater to the Gundam fanbase.
