I dunno Getsuya, I've read the Amazon.co.jp page for LoL and the top review kinda makes it sound really hard, tedious, and boring in a non-SaGa way. I'm really interested in seeing how it reviews in the West but I've got an inkling suspicion that it'll crater like Minstrel Song did because despite a bunch of people saying JRPGs are too easy they don't want to play one that's really difficult. Then again maybe LoL is just artificially hard? Every English review for the Japanese version I've read is either A) "I don't get SaGa games, what is this?" or B) "This is a Japanese 3DS JRPG and I loving LOVE IT JRPGS WOO" so there's no real middle ground.

Policenaut posted:It should be said that a lot of the ex-SaGa guys behind Legend of Legacy aren't, by and large, THE SaGa guys. The director's only prior credit is a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon game, game design from the guy who thought Unlimited SaGa's battle system was a good idea, and speaking of Unlimited SaGa they got that soundtrack guy to come back and make another really boring soundtrack. On the plus side, they did get the key illustrator back. The rest are all an assortment of people who had nothing to do with the franchise. I went through the list of people they were touting back when the game is announced and while the director is some random Level-5 dude the others aren't just randoms - the lead designer, for instance, did the battle planning for both RomSaGa 2/3 and both Frontier games as well as Unlimited Saga, and the others all actually did stuff worth mentioning, too. I don't think people are gonna be bothered that this game doesn't feel authentically SaGa-y; we've seen enough of the battle system to know how similar it is, so the bigger issue is going to be people buying the game and realising they don't actually like SaGa.

Is there anything wrong with the Ace Attorney Trilogy on the eshop? apparently it's part of the Capcom sale, and I never had a DS to play them when they first came out. Think they're down to $23

Just get them, they're great. You don't even have to wait for the slow text scroll like in the originals, which makes it the ultimate version.

I tried watching a Japanese Let's Play of it on Youtube to decide for myself but blind/no battles edited out LPs of RPGs like this are long, boring, painful watches and it doesn't help that none of the commentators had anything interesting to say. The only thing I can say from watching the videos that is a huge plus is they finally gave you more to do with a shield than just defend yourself. Using a shield as your main 'weapon' is a legit tactic in this game, and that's a refreshing design choice that I'm interested in. The magic system, on the other hand, seems obtuse. Maybe if I watched longer one of the LPers would have figured it out enough to explain it. Edit: It also doesn't help that none of the LPers has come close to finishing the game. Unless of course it's possible to finish it in 18 half-hour episodes. Getsuya fucked around with this message at 02:31 on Aug 27, 2015 |

The only thing bad about them is that the "HD" graphics don't actually look better in any way than the original sprites, and a lot of the time look worse. But that doesn't really matter if you've never played the games. The games are amazing and worth playing regardless so get them. The other thing you might have heard of being wrong with the Trilogy was that the original iOS release of it was rife with typos. This is not the case in the 3DS version.

Other sins of the iOS Trilogy that were rectified for 3DS:
The iOS Trilogy was a garbage package but the 3DS version is probably the best way to play the original 3 games nowadays so if you've never played them, go download it right now!

Is Snake Eater 3D any better on New 3DS? Common complaints I heard were about framerate and controls, which may be better on New 3DS. I don't know.

It does control better with the extra buttons but I don't think it runs any better.

The frame rate is the same but it controls much better with a second stick.

I can't imagine playing it without that weird little nipple thing. Edit: I also like the theme you get. "bwah bwah bwa bwaaaaaaa" It sets the dramatic tone I need to play Animal Crossing. Lord Lambeth fucked around with this message at 09:05 on Aug 27, 2015 |

The only complaint about playing MGS3D on N3DS is that there is no way of changing the controls. Aiming and shooting ate done with the tiny L2/R2 buttons.

Probably not, seeing as MGS is a Konami game.

Those games were designed for the CCP where ZR/L are actual triggers that are like twice as big as the regular shoulder buttons

Anyone have a good guide to teaching Fire Emblem? I've been poking at it, but god drat do I suck at it. Basically at the start of a fight I'll pair up my guys and try and set up for battle, but it feels like I get swarmed by enemies no matter what. I can't rush out and take them out, if I sit back they gang up on me... what am I supposed to do?

In Awakening you should always have people paired off because one good unit is better than two mediocre ones in Fire Emblem. Most of the fighting will take place on enemy phase; that's just Fire Emblem. You're trying to minimize the potential damage the enemy army can inflict on you during their phase, so pick your targets carefully and make sure you know how many enemies can attack you before committing to a move. You can make the game display the entire enemy army's movement range and highlight specific enemies to keep your high priority targets' movement in mind. I wouldn't worry too much about it though. You can play on normal or hard/casual and get a feel for the game.

triplexpac posted:Anyone have a good guide to teaching Fire Emblem? You can mark enemy movement ranges individually and as a group. Try to only pull 1-to-3 enemies per turn and take advantage of chokepoints.
