I was so obsessed with this series back in High School. Elric jumps in a castle tower that moves randomly through the dimensions. Kinda like a Dr. Who story now that I think of it.
Oh yea, 1974 for the first version of DnD. I just noticed that ADnD came out in '77. That was the version I grew up on.
I got rid of a bunch of consoles a while back, especially the 80's ones because they are so bulky. I also got rid of my SNES and Genesis because I have a lot of the games elsewhere. I kinda regret it now. An original NES costs $50 now. WTF.
I got a Wii because of VC. It's getting some good use now finally.
I love having collections, so I really want that Tecmo one. It's not expensive either. I just gotta get a Amazon card sometime.
It's weird but I was getting frustrated with a lot of old school games this weekend. When I was about to quit one, my last play was a "I don't give two shits" style of wreckless abandonment, and well. . . that was the best round I had every time.
I noticed all the arcade ports to NES this weekend. My friend Mark has a whole case full of them. They're good, but noticeably lower quality than the arcade versions across the board. I think consoles finally caught up to the arcades when CDs happened in '95.
Man, all this talk of the NES version makes me want to play it now. I'll have to keep my eye open for a copy next time I'm at my retro store Jay Street VG.
I've got Jay Street Video Games beginning to really thrive and grow in my area at the moment. I've got two in my area and they are opening more stores all the time. Their stock started at almost nothing and now is crammed full of awesomeness. I guess retro is starting to get big again.
I only need one game I'm crazy for on SNES or Genesis that I can't get anywhere else to pick up a Retron. I have my NES still because of Wizardry. It's the only place I can play it.
Yea. I watched some video of it and I immediately thought of Advance Wars. It does a lot of the same things visually. I'm thinking it's the inspiration for Advance Wars.
I heard that PS2 version, then ported to Wii, being described like God of War, so I picked them up. It got me interested in the series even though I haven't played the new one yet. I'm finding from this arcade Rygar that I really like the world and gameplay.
