i would be very confused about what there is to like about goemon 3 or 4

I liked the side scrolling sections and the mecha bosses in 3

the mecha bosses were okay but i felt like the robots and mazelike level design really dragged down both the side scrolling and top down overworld sections of 3, just too much tedious running back and forth and jumping in and out of them and trying to figure out what the game ever wants you to do with them. the first n64 game was kinda obtuse at times too but it was never as confusing just trying to figure out what it wanted you to do

I can understand that. Thinking about it now I do remember having to go back and forth in some of the side scrolling stages in 3

oh yeah like 80% of the jokes in the later snes goemon games are either "this man gay!", "this man gay and dressed as woman!" or "this woman transgender!"

people got mad at the translator on the goemon 3 tl patch over one of those jokes and it's like. yeah the guy is kinda stupid and i dont love his work but you cant blame him for the game being written like a really bad 90s gag manga

yeah, goemon doesn't need to come back, especially with poo poo like this. the whole joke in the first N64 game with the villain was "lol he gay"

There seems to be both a Touhou Genso Wanderer Reloaded and a Touhou Genso Wanderer -Lotus Labyrinth R- on Nintendo Dot Com's online store, with English and Japanese releases.
those games arent whats being referred to. labyrinth of touhou is literally a game called Labyrinth of Touhou, and is an etrian odyssey/wizardry-esque game. genso wanderer is a shiren the wanderer riff.

people remember the goemon games as funny largely because the ones we got in the west were the ones that had something resembling jokes

also the n64 censorship kind of made the jokes funnier. a space alien whos just really obsessed with dancing is way funnier than The Gay Alien

it's insane how much funnier the old inventor guy is when his joke is changed from "loves ero mags" to "loves muscle car mags"

It's already on Steam as early access, but it will be officially released then, and the price will go up.

I've heard people argue that the buster parts system in Mega Man Legends is an RPG system, so Roll Caskett.

But if you don't want to go there, then Lyn in Fire Emblem, but honorable mention to Summon Night Swordcraft Story for activating my yuri brain.
