Rse is great for island feels. Tropical settings in RPGs are up there with snow feels.

It lasted in NA until 2008, FFV came out in 2006 and FFVI in 2007

EDIT: Minish Cap in 2005 too

Golden Sun, FFV, Metroid Zero Mission & Fusion.. gently caress, Aria of Sorrow, Minish Cap, Mario and Luigi, every other FF remake, gently caress me. There was some good rear end games on that thing

i didn't much care for Ruby/Sapphire due to the map being 80% water which also included underwater sections

yeah and if you play the version where you fight team aqua, like half the land encounters will also be against water pokemon. its the worst pokemon gen, of the ones i played

I think it's badass that the official workaround for not having a Wii sensor bar in Dolphin is to light two candles and put them on either side of your monitor. Emulator devs are nuts

as I recall then the rom on my gba flashcart had some clever way of emulating sunlight, with L/R plus button pressing or something. man, I gotta dig up my GBA SP for supreme gaming the next few days when I'm away from my pc

You can just use the sensor bar if you have it.. if you don't have a Wiimote you have to bind the 3D movement of the motion controls to your mouse and keyboard or something like that.

The Wii U gamepad also has them built in so you can point a wiimote at it and play wii games on the lil babey screen
