Message: [QUOTE="Lee__Kanker, post: 3266, member: 88"] I have a lot to say about one of the greatest consoles in the world, a tiny colorful machine made for simplistic single screen games and an as good as possible port of donkey kong that ended up creating game genres as we know them today [ATTACH type="full" width="497px" alt="1729040358929.png"]1226[/ATTACH] Akumajou Dracula: An amazing action game One of the favorite games of my favorite director Hideki Kamiya I always saw it as a precursor to devil may cry then it turns out kamiya always cites it as one of his faves Your stiff movement and wind up weapon make the game all about timing and prioritizing enemies, it actually feels so fast and fluid once you master it has this neat feeling of actually going on a journey, I love how you can see your final destination, draculas castle, AND the final boss room in the distance all the way back in level 3, no other game does stuff like that [ATTACH type="full" alt="1729040954887.png"]1234[/ATTACH] Moon Crystal: Fantastic Fantastic animations for the famicom, I wanna find a breakdown on how they did it because even the most advanced games never have these much frames Nice music, feels like a somber adventure, super pretty story scenes Its really unique cause its like east-meets-west mechanics wise. The cinematic platformer was a staple of western pc games with prince of persia, flashback and another world, and its being mixed with your typical jap famicom platformer but not in a half assed way, the makers knew what they were doing. You can get health upgrades and double jump but you're also very heavy and have to realistically climb on ledges and have a slow attack and stuff Theres nothing else like it [ATTACH type="full" width="398px" alt="1729040374329.png"]1227[/ATTACH] Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei 2 Fantastic story with some heavy twists for the time Amazing soundtrackSuper sprites especially the bosses, a big world to explore with bars to ask homos for hints, casinos, drug stores were you can get completely fucked up. Memorable side quests, an amazing fusion system where theres so many demons to create you need a guide its insane, way before pokemon too. TWO big words to explore once you reach hell As relentless and merciless as it is I still havent forgotten finally reaching god backed up by lucifer and my carefully and painfully crafted party and the ending showing a new beginning for mankind. Amazing [ATTACH type="full" alt="1729040594826.png"]1228[/ATTACH] No matter how much 3 added I'll never get over how stupendous the movement system is, the intertia, and how you can choose to play it slow and exploratory or blazing fast and both on a machine made for simple single screen games. There was a before smb and an after smb in the platforming genre [ATTACH type="full" width="500px" alt="1729040612746.png"]1229[/ATTACH] Rockman 4 Great controls, Rockman finally has his full moveset None of the weapons feel pointless, I really like the paraoh shot and I dont get why nonone online talks about it; it's a big genkidama sphere that floats around your head catching anything that falls into it and then you can launch it in multiple directions; thats so cool!! Gorgeous enviroments, two whole castles, not too easy like 5-6 not challenging like 1 but hard enough, no stupid grinding like in 2 [ATTACH type="full" width="479px" alt="1729040664644.png"]1230[/ATTACH] Dragon Quest 3; THE rpg, as barebones as the enviroments are the guide and manual art really help with envisioning this world, each town has its own story which can get pretty dark like a town thats seemingly normal at night but as you sleep in the hotel all you see is destroyed buildings as skeletons as the main baddie previously visited this place The combat system is simple but its really fun! And you get a lot of variety with the different classes and the Reclassing, you can play it in a lof of different ways, you can go alone with 3 bunny girls that do little to no damage if you want to Another game that surprises you with TWO big words to exploreAnd while there isnt a lot of musical variety the tracks that are there are really nice [ATTACH type="full" width="644px" alt="1729040707864.png"]1231[/ATTACH] Kirby of the Stars: The Story of the Fountain of DreamsLike with Moon Crystal this hardly feels like its made for this harware. Each power up couldve been its own game, the Movement is fantastic kirby feels distinct from mario while having a great GREAT sense of weight, if you get good at the game you can be SO AGILE. The backrounds are impeccable and so is the music, noobs can just finish the game with the inhaling move like the first game while more skilled plsyers can have fun with the new abilitiesOn top of it theres all the great animation, the minigames just for fun and the distinct 3 antagonist Kirby's on a league of its own [ATTACH type="full" alt="1729040737310.png"]1232[/ATTACH] Akumajou Densetsu: take everything from 1 and make it a gigantic adventure with a truckload of super detailed levels for a famicom cartridge, with interactive enviroments some of the best music on the famicom and 4 distinct playstyles, and it's not even a late era game! It's just a year after mario 3! Hot damn [MEDIA=youtube]GHG3e0bQe3I[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
