Great Rpg/Action game for the nes. Has anybody else played it? If not, you should. It earns the Shadow Recomendation :wink:

I can't play seriously on an emulator...

I just recently discovered that game (over the summer, I believe). That was an awesome game! It plays pretty much like Zelda, but has it's own style. Very fun, for sure!

I played the game on an emulator a few nights ago and it seemed very familiar, I must have played it a long time ago. I wish I still had all my old stuff... I know I've owned a few R.O.Bs in my day...

That's a quite good game.
It's just a bit annoying that you always talk to people automatically when you face them. I prefer to push a button when I want to speak.

It's horrible to just bump and talk! Much better to just hit the button once to talk. The other extreme would be the early Dragon Warriors, where you had to push the button, THEN select what action to do, such as talk, stairs, etc....

That's hardcore RPGing.
This sort of gaming maked me kind of nostalgic... :) Selecting anything you do from some menu.
To speak from that, I liked Maniac Mansion. :D
(Perhaps we need a Maniac Mansion thread in the games section...)

'Crystalis' is a great adventure game. My favorite part is where you can use magic to change your appearance and slip past guards and other characters. The boss battles are exciting as well.

I need to play that again. Unfortunately I only have the ROM on my computer. Would like to have the cart. I need to do some search in Japan the next time.

I'm getting the cart very soon well within a few weeks, it's coming from Canada by boat so it can take up to 4-6 weeks. Some dude traded a few games for 1 complete double i got but the shipping was mega high for airmail so i have to wait.

I understand that 1 isn't, this guy traded my Dragon Fighter complete for Crystalis cart,8 Eyes cart,Rambo boxed and The Guardian legend boxed,so he has to send 4 games in a box,can understand that shipping can get high then.

I think air mail for that would be about $12 CDN... one cart was under 0.1 KG, and 4 would, theoretically be 0.4KG and therefore only be $12.20 according to this: http://www.canadapost.ca/personal/offerings/small_packets/int/rates-e.aspalthough surface is half that cost, so I suppose if you're not in a rush for it, it is worth it to wait.

Perhaps that guy wanted more than the normal fare is? :?
If you have to wait some weeks, the joy is bigger when receiving it. :wink:

I actually beat the whole game on an emulator, and found the cart in a gamestop about a year ago and snagged it! Heh, I am so smooth. :wink:

As i said i'm getting game mega soon, i stopped playing the rom otherwise i won't play it if i finish it or know too much what to do to beat it. This game must be one of the best SNK releases on the NES.

The Ikari series was pretty shabby, although the third was the best between the three. Another great game they put out was Baseball Stars! Now that was cool. So... three games jump to mind. :wink:
