Are there older any games (Wii and below because I want to emulate it on my phone) that let you customise a good chunk of your character's features like gender, height, size of particular features or limbs, color of their skin, eyes, hair and clothes?
The game doesn't even have to be good, I just want to play around with the character customizer and maybe seen my character in action.
 
I mean for its time, Daggerfall's customization was pretty impressive.

Champions Of Norrath 1&2 PS2 - Phantasy Star Portable 1&2 PSP - Dungeon Siege PSP - Titan Quest ANDROID - Monster Hunter Stories ANDROID - Elder Scrolls 3 Morrowind unnoficial Android port - Xenoblade Chronicles Wii and 3ds - Persona 3 portable PSP - Persona 4 golden PS VITA - Tale of Hearts PS Vita - Borderlands 2 PS Vita - Midnight Club 3 and LA remix on PSP Have so many car unlocks and customizations its as much an RPG is it is a racing game. Fantasy Life Nintendo 3ds - Metal Max 2 and 3 Nintendo DS - Diablo Playstion 1 - FYI there is a emulator called WINLATOR that lets you play pc games. The newest version is on github from a guy named bruno, i think. Depending on your hardware it can run modern games. But who can copy a 50 or hundred gig game to their phone? Even 10 or 20 gigs is pushing it You have to have the pc game install folder copied to your downloads folder of your phone run the app select the exe then try your luck. Gotta tweek almost eveygame to make it work. No universal settings South Park the sick of truth works. Only 5 gigs. Skyrim worked for me but with no music. Depending on the version mine, 10 gigs Elder scrolls oblivion (5 gigs)worked great but no native gamepad support. Theres a work around but too much BS for me to want to figure it out. Diablo 2 LOD works fine build in touch screen mouse on Winlator. Torchlight 2 worked great too. Only 1.5 gig file size.

Thanks for the big list of games, as for Winlator, I've never had good luck running anything except the SimCity games for some reason. Most of them either don't run for a bs reason, run very badly or stutter so much it's not fun to play them. Skyrim for switch may run good enough for me to goof around in the character creation screen so I'll try that way.
 
I think in God Hand and Armored Core series
If it's emulation on mobile, the PSP port of AC3 and Silent Line are pretty good ports. Replayed those two a bunch on my phone, always with new builds and trying to roleplay a sort of background with my character. They're fun as hell.

yup, as well in Mobile you can easily play AC1, PP and MoA with Duckstation and Formula Front and Last Raven(don't try play it as it's even harder in PSP at least you want suffer) in PPSSPP

- Plenty of pre-wii wrestling games let you go wild with customization, from look to the moves you can do
- Checkered Flag on the Lynx lets you pick driver gender, but I have no idea if it affects anything? But for a 1991 handheld game it seemed like a rare inclusion
- I can't think of the names offhand, but if you'd like to go way back, there are some Apple II-era softwares that let you create aliens and stuff by assembling from preset body parts and it makes a weird creature you can look at.
 
I played Soul Calibur 3, but you might want to try the character customization in the later games too

I tried SoulCalibur 3 too but it only lets you change clothes, hair and such. I was looking for something more advanced. Still, a very good game.
 
Phantasy Star Online! Dreamcast, Gamecube, Xbox, and PC.

There's plenty more, I'm sure, but that's the first one that came to mind ^_^
PSO's morphing for the character proportions still surprises me.
 
Cocoron for Famicom is fascinating, it's an action platformer where you customize your own heroes and based on the parts and abilities you pick for each hero, they play and behave very differently.


It's a Japanese exclusive game that was translated to English and it's genuinely a very very interesting concept that works surprisingly well, yet it's for a mere NES Platformer you'd think.

Yea, this game looks interesting. Not exactly what I was looking for but I'm gonna try it some day.
