No Plok? They both suck.
Holy shit I haven’t thought about that game in forever! It was hard AF as I recall.
Both have great taste!
And are less filling!
So they meet in the middle at Actraiser?
Excellent game.
One of my favorites. I replay it every few years when I think about it again.
Too bad about the sequels…
I have not heard that name in a long time. … Long time.
I still whistle the music every so often.
Fine. I’ll do it myself.
Oh, I think you mean final fantasy 6! Lol
I’m about to play the new retranslation once I finish with 7.
stop trying to find someone who likes what you like and hates what you hate. try to find someone who you enjoy anyway and treats you well.
To a point yes but having nothing in common is tiring really.
I feel like gaming is something you both want to have in common if either of you really enjoy it. Otherwise it seems like it usually turns into a problem.
Sometimes it’s better to have different tastes. My ex and I liked the opposite flavors of gummy bears. It was so convenient. lol
Your ex you said? #joking
Yeah, but the end wasn’t gummy bear related. lol
Sometimes the universe has other plans.
I say this as someone who never stopped looking until I found a gaming buddy in a partner. When every night is a date, lan party, and sleepover all at once… I certainly can’t tell you what’s important to you, just never settle.
You can’t really decide what others want in life.
100%
It’s also nice to have shared interests. But I have friends to chat with about the latest Final Fantasy game.
Me too
My brother and I split the SNES when it came out (presumably with money our parents gave us because we were just kids), but he got gifted Super Mario RPG. And he held that shit over my head, and we didn’t get a long, and he never let me play, and so it kinda solidified itself as my favorite game of all time, because it had this forbidden nature for me.
Putting all that aside, it was just a well made game, great pacing, great mechanics. I got the Switch version and I’m hoping to get my kids into it, but it’s hard to compete with the looks of modern games, especially since my kids are young.
My copy did something weird and wouldn’t let me get one particular hidden chest after the first playthrough. Heartbreaking.
Is it the one in the castle you have to ride on a Toad’s head to get? That one’s missable.
Yeah, that one’s tricky, but there’s also a later one that requires you to jump to reveal a hidden platform but the platform wouldn’t reveal itself when I jumped into it, even though I got it the first run and could see Mario bump into it in air so I knew I had the right spot.
I can only assume there was some weirdly specific glitch or damage 🤷♂️
That sounds like the entrance to the casino. That one’s tricky, but I doubt it’s messed up on your cartridge.
Its the second Land’s End one here:

For some reason the hidden platform just won’t activate anymore. It’s entirely possible I’m just missing some detail but like I said, worked fine the first time.
Until the other person pronounces it sness instead of s.n.e.s.
Ess Ness was always my silly way of pronouncing it, because there’s Ness, for N-E-S, and if you add an S, it’s S-Ness.
I accept sillynes
Thumbs up
Okay wow rude. How I say it is my bizsness
You’ve made an enemy today. We could have been friends.
You’ll never be rid of me 🙂
Snez
I find both acceptable, but s.n.e.s to be too complicated. Somehow, “Super Nintendo” rolls off the tongue for me.
There’s also “snezz” and “Super N.E.S.”, Along with all the other permutations of pronouncing NES, lol
Weirdos policing people’s childhoods
Wackos thinking anyone is “policing” your childhood.
If you take offense to anything in this post you need to sit down and rethink a lot of things about yourself.
Wishing you luck
I’ve never even heard of Terraniema (? Kinda hard to read that font).
Is it any good?
It’s considered to be the best game in Quintet’s non-god-game trilogy (Soulblazer And Illusion of Time/Gaia being the other t’o games).
It is really good, but has its’ unfair moments. Great music, too.
I’ve seen this repeated a bunch of times but it seems to be an opinion predominantly held by Brits who played Terranigma growing up. I don’t understand it, as I played Illusion of Gaia growing up and love the game dearly (and have replayed it many times since then) but I’ve played Terranigma multiple times and lost interest not long after passing Bloody Mary. The game has gorgeous music and graphics (especially the two world map themes and the early areas) but the story didn’t engage me like IoG.
It’s Terranigma, it never got a North America release so not well known there. I’ve never played it but I hear it’s pretty good.
Terranigma, very cool game
Super Mario World where?
Everybody likes that.
True true. I did think that everyone liked DK as well but I could be wrong
Me too.
They’re both correct.
Hook up the old super nintendo and start asking questions like “Hey did you ever play Lufia?”
Lufia? I rented it from the video rental store back in the day. I never finished it, but I enjoyed the game.
So, Lufia is a LONG game. It’s got fairly limited graphics and sound for a SNES game but it packs in a lengthy quest. It feels almost wrong to offer that one as a rental.
Soundtrack to Secret of Mana makes me cry evertim
Love seeing Terranigma here. Such a great hidden gem. If you’re a fan of Secret of Evermore or Illusion of Gaia, check it out.
Have I got this straight in my head:
Illusion of Gaia was the second in a trilogy: Soul Blazer, Illusion of Gaia and a third one that wasn’t released in North America. And was that third one Terranigma or a different game?
Followed by Granstream Saga.
It was Terranigma.
Sounds right to me. Thanks for reminding me about my abandoned Soul Blazer playthrough 😬.
Edit: Shout out to Enix being awesome before the merger.
Soul Blazer is a melancholy game. You start it up and the world has been emptied of beings, throughout the game you restore beings to existence, and yet it doesn’t cheer up.
Mega man X soundtrack lives rent free in my head, along with the first scene that crushed me as a child.
This is 2, not X, but you might still appreciate this live play. https://youtu.be/MUHlVdqRlPA
