I just realized that within one Christmas, I've more than doubled the amount of DS games I have.

Hi no Seijin

Wasn't Romancing Saga originally Final Fantasy Legend for the old Game Boy?

MagmarFire

A few nights ago, I got a quite unexpected amount of $45, to add to the other $100 I got. Thank goodness there's a Shop Channel on the Wii, or else I would have no idea on what games to spend the money on. :P



Advanceshipping and Rion had better be Chuck Norris approved.

It very well may have been, it was made by Square.

Anyways, I've finally discovered some kind of plot. I found this place called Pirate Coast, apparently it's the hometown of Pirates. Go figure. Anyways, there's this huge debate over changing the pirate policy to killing everyone on board the ships, because people aren't afraid of pirates anymore. And of course, I'm the goody-two shoes who has to oppose it. Although it would be fun....oh well. So I have to go to this place called Mask Isle and duel the other pirate. Yay.

It's actually pretty unique, a nice find.

It's not called Square. Or Square Enix.

It's called Squenix, get it right.

It's actually a really fun game, it's got a lot of variety and customization, but I can't play it for a bit longer because the twins got back into Thrillville again and won't stop playing it.

Actually, no. Romancing SaGa was the 'SaGa" series for the SNES. The Gameboy series is just known as 'SaGa'. Romancing SaGa was the first of three for the SNES... I haven't played it, no translation and don't have the PS2. But I really like how unique the SaGa series as a whole is.

Well, I got the series right.
*cough*

Wikipedia is my friend, JQ.  Although I do appreciate the fact that you tried to edumacate me in video game history.

What is Pheonix Write?



Pheonix Wright is one of the most unique, awesome games ever made. It's a lawyer game, pretty much. Solve cases and defend people in court, etc. Unfortunately, no ambulance-chasing minigames.

SaGa is really fun once you get into it though. Just took me a long time to get used to the stats and how they work, since the packet was missing. I still don't have it all figured out, and I've been tinkering with it for a few hours.

Stats in SaGa are fairly straightforward (though unique). Basically it works such that anything that you do a lot of - the stat related to that grows. Lose a lot of HP? HP goes up. Use magic a lot? mana goes up. Agility comes by using stuff like bows and maybe martial arts.

DW

Huh, I get it. That would definitely explain the lack of experience and levels in the game. Alright, thanks JQ. Also, my main character...if your non-main characters lose all their LP, they leave, right? What about if it happens to your main character? (In this case, the main character is a big beefy pirate named Creampuff)

I told you already, I haven't played that game, so I wouldn't know. I simply know aspects of the series (well, early series).

Might as well check Gfaqs for that.
