PixlBit

Yes Chrono Trigger is a good one so is The Secret of Mana which is now on ios and android as well which is another great one to start with.

Well I for one am very excited to see what you all come up with so please keep me updated on your progress and any info you can supply I did check out pixlcross and looks very interesting of course I may need a Wii U to actually see it but maybe in the near future.

As far as Jrpgs are concerned I would recommend the Tales series like the 360s Tales of Vesperia the selections I picked in my blog are for Jsrpgs which are appropriate for Strategy Role Playing Games.

Being someone who does plumbing for the school district daily I can see where it would make you not want to be mario but apperently I would make a good Mario but dont tell anybody I do enough in the district lol!!

Although I got my interest in the first NES Zelda and Dragon Warrior games my favorite ones were on the PS1 as well I still play some like Vagrant Story & Suikoden. 

I think the N64 had one called Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles that was another good rpg to start with.

This is so true lol!!!

Well dont know about that lol!!! But I know your not judging and you make a valid point and to be honest I usually do buy these games new an example the recor of argarest Naughty and zero I bought the collectors edition for that very reason but I bought F1 2014 instead so I supported Codemasters so they will keep publishing f1 games but this is just a by chance deal and I jumped on it but I totally agree with you.

Ok but before being so harsh check out state of decay you will love it 

I see and respect your point but when your gaming budget is usually in the $20 range you have to take a deal when you see it, I figure sombody bought it didnt like it and traded it in which is really no different then a freind giving it to me cause he didnt like it. ;)
