I keep wanting to call it Code Rain. Looks great. Fashion Dreamer isn't included in the list, which is some sort of dress-up simulator.

A Metroid Prime remaster and cool GB/GBA games and I've mostly played Alone in the Dark so far. There's barely any combat or game, but these graphics are so weird I just want to keep going deeper.

It takes multiple revolver shots to take out a spider, it rules

I've tried multiple times to get into EO games but usually get stonewalled. I'm gonna get these remasters most likely, maybe I should just play on Easy to figure it all out.

if you've never tried 5 I greatly recommend it as a starting point. tons of little stuff that makes it more interesting than the others, its honestly a little hard to go back after it and Nexus

I’ve started EON a couple of times and am going to try again instead of picking up the remasters. I just find after the baby maze you start in it’s so tough. Been playing on hard mode as synthy recommended that to me before so I think I need to just try and think more about party synergies and stick with it.

The rising inn money also seems punishing so I’m always worried about that

Nexus on the other hand is an crazy starting point but its awesome. Rising inn cost barely matters, your income far outweighs it once you get a few dungeons in. I need to finish nexus, I got like 9 dungeons in and got sidetracked. I love my party in it. insane game

EO5 was great, probably my favorite EO to replay. Cool classes and nice labyrinths without the world map to take up time. I liked the world map the first time I played EO4 but on replays it kind of gets in the way of what I'm actually there for.

I’ve already dropped a few hours each into both GB and GBA, this is a dream come true for me. Hope they don’t drip feed the updates like they do with N64, give me at least like three new GB games a month. I don’t want to wait a year to play Kirby Pinball.

I hope they’ll end up doing 3 or 5 every month like they used to do with the NES/SNES ones but even then it might be like a year before we get to play Golden Sun. If they do one single GBA game a month I’m gonna freak.

I loved Golden Sun 1 and 2 as a kid, probably some of the first "real" JRPGs I played other than like Pokemon, but I feel quite certain that I should not ever replay them

i really liked golden sun when it came out even if it takes a while to get going in the beginning. i thought it was a good starter rpg for the handheld. magical vacation was also a good time but that was import only iirc.

Golden Sun always looked like a perfectly okay game that just happened release at the right time to grab people ten years younger than me in the same way FFIV did for me.

yeah it seemed like a perfectly average JRPG but idk if there would be any point in playing it now

I really liked Golden Sun a lot at launch. Replayed it a year or two ago and it's fine. The mind reading and the psynergy puzzles are fun and I like the big fighting tourney. The djinn system is kinda cool because you can effectively change your characters' classes midfight but it's also annoying because you have to choose between having an actual party build or using the djinn effects and summon system to its fullest. The summons were really cool for the time

golden sun is a pretty dry jrpg but it came out after nintendo kids had just gone through a whole console generation with no jrpgs so yeah it hit a lot of people new to the genre or with lowered standards

the first golden sun is tight, just a straightforward jrpg where you beat stuff up and find Better Sword. there arent enough games like that

the second golden sun is kind of a mess and has a lot of annoying poo poo

The Golden Sun games were my first real non-licensed RPGs and they also introduced me to Motoi Sakuraba’s music so I have great memories of them but despite being hyped for them to come to Switch I know they’re probably decent at best. The class/summoning system is really neat though, and I’d love to see a newer game copy it.

The music and graphics kicked rear end. Some of the summon animations were super impressive for the GBA
