many say Zelda is an RPG, it kinda is, but its more an adventure. I have beaten Secret of Mana, and Lufia II, I have been close to beating many, but never officially beaten them ie. Tales of Phatasia, FF3(JP), FF5, Lufia1 (coming close, just have to get around to playing it again). I have never played Star Ocean, but it is one I want to try when DeJap gets everything finished with the English translation.
Personally N64 would have been better if they actually released it in 1994 like they said they were going to, then Donkey Kong Country (it was supposed to be the first game released for N64, but as N64 got pushed back, Rare did not wait, so it got released for SNES)would have attracted the necessary viewer support.
SNES was the best console of the 1990's, and I dont know a lot about the new consoles. After N64, that was it for me and consoles, ill stick with PC thank you.
as for Smegforbrain, 20 years for Koei already, hard to beleive. I still play a little RTK2 sometimes, never played the original one, but I was a fan of Nobunaga's ambition.
