Awake and unreal, off to nowhere
Play all of the Fire Emblem games with an english release, they are all great... except maybe Shadow Dragon? I haven't played that one yet because everyone shits on it, but once I finish the Gamecube FE I'll probably play that as well.

I would also add the caveat of not playing the Wii one before the Gamecube game, since unlike most of the other "connected" games the stories are pretty closely entwined, and without playing the first one a lot of story beats and reveals will lose a lot of what made them good.

I think I'm going to try and 100% Etrian Odyssey again. Last time I was in post game and did the quest with the first dragon not knowing that A) I could have fought it at lv 40, B) it wold get replaced by another dragon and keep me from getting its second drop. Then the game was stolen 2 weeks later.

Also does anybody know if this game is good? http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/yTuwHVRs_BofF51UQvvYHyDJprx-H4f3

$200 is kind of extreme but you could easily get about $90-100 for it

Buying used you can get it for around $100, but if you want it new then $200 is actually the cheapest I've seen

SMT4's a good JRPG that has a dungeon crawling focus. And yeah there's Pokemon style collecting of demons, only you can fuse your demons together to make stronger ones. You might find it a little tough to start with until you learn the mechanics.

Somebody said it's Pokémon for adults, so there you go. You fight demons by using your demons, but instead of capturing them you try to talk them over to you. Depending on your answers they'll either join you or laugh at you while pummeling your face in. Fun. If you like dying, this is your game.

That being said: This is much more of a roleplaying game than the other JRPG entries, since you do get to choose your actions in certain crossroads. And they do have consequences concerning the world around you and your close friends. What's more, you don't actually have to fight everyone and everything, but can try to talk your way out of trouble. Which is nice, the common fantasy hero trope can get tiring after a while.

Also the game's difficulty curve starts really high but curves down pretty low after a point, so don't get discouraged if you're getting pounded at first. Your first demon recruitments are pretty touch and go.

Last time I checked it was the opposite and you have to go to mobile YouTube in the new 3DS browser. The app is crummy ime.

I'm willing to bet the gameplay is faster/more fun looking in more experienced hands. I agree with you though the the lack of online is unfortunate, but there's enough customization and supposedly enough single player content that I'm still willing to give it a go, especially for the customization aspect. They're also supporting it post release with weekly Spotpass downloads so that's kinda neat in my opinion.

On another note, I really like the aesthetics of a lot of the full robot sets I've seen in games or official art. They've got six of the story characters' robots in decently large art on the website and I like them all except for maybe the fact that the girl's ninja robot is stereotypically pink: http://lbx.nintendo.com/battle

This game is apparently the third version of that first game, with the first two versions being the original on PSP and a revision on PSP. Japan got the 3DS game we're getting in July of 2012.

We're getting the game mostly because the show (and maybe the physical merchandise?) has done well on Nickelodeon.

Its a well made kids game with a lot of charm like every Level 5 game, but I don't think its worth getting super excited about. I'd rather play Custom Robo or Armored Core or something myself.
