I played through Seiken Densetsu 2 again recently with two of my friends and it was as magical as it was 10 years ago.

It's worth playing. Hands down my favorite game in the series and one of my favorite games of all time even. Being able to make your team out of six possible characters (including a werewolf no less!), each with several class options and three mains tory routes makes for insane replayability. (It's the only ROM I keep multiple SRAM files for as 3 save slots just isn't enough with this many choices.)

In fact every time I talk about hoping we'll get some games for the first time officially in regards to the VC, in reality what I'm really screaming in my head is "BRING OVER SD3!" I don't really have high hopes of this happening but it's what comes to mind every time the possibility of games not originally from the region is brought up.

Given that Squeenix is on a Mana kick now trying to relaunch it as a "new" franchise gives me some hope that it'll get rereleased in some fashion. (From what I've gathered the very hot looking Heroes of Mana on the DS is tied to it in some way.)

Did you try 300k?

anyway, there is nothing special about it.

I am 100% sure that this game won't be doing well.
Third Party Companies complain about their games not selling well on Nintendo systems.
It's their own fault.

3rd Parties'.

Someone from Namco once complained about that.
But it's their own fault.

On the other hand, Square Enix said 'we proved with DQMJ and FF3 that 3rd Party titles can do well on DS'.

oh ok



personally, I don't care much about third parties since I like what Nintendo makes (that's why I didn't like the games on the cube much, since the focus was on luring third parties). But from a more general view, third parties are necessary to maintain the consoles popularity and life.
