    Default If there was one game you wish you owned....

    If there was one game you wish you owned at the moment what would it be?

    my personal choice at the moment would be ghostbusters for c64
    the reason for this is because i didnt understand it when i was a kid and
    want to beat it soo bad i found it so frustrating..... so just played krakout instead that was a great game!

    The Adventures of Willy Beamish mint on CD (Talkie version) for the PC. I've been looking for this with box, artwork and Willy Beamish watch since I was a kid.

    It was a game that I wanted for the longest time when I was young and it sold out everywhere here.

    gold NWC so I could sell it and make a down payment on a house.

    For collecting/playing purposes I'd have to say Suikoden II.

    cib Knuckles Chaotix on the 32X. I'd still need a 32X but that'd go a really long way toward completing my Sonic collection. Failing that, Shining Force CD.

    Battlesphere for the Atari Jaguar. Not because of it's rarity or it's potential collectability, just because I've always loved good 3D space shooters like Star Raiders and I've only ever had the chance to play the game at conventions. I just cannot justify spending $500 on a game (that most collectors treat like a commodity rather than something to play and enjoy).

    Mint condition copy of Brigandine Grand Edition. While the original Brigandine is one of my favorite games of all time, Grand Edition is pretty much the exact same game with slight changes which technically makes it the superior game.

    Damage ratio is now broken up into the paper>rock>scissors way(like Fire Emblem,) where it's now Red>Green>Blue Black=White while it used to just be Red=Blue Black=White then Green. Classes were given different enhancements like Paladin's having a 50% chance of reducing physical attack damage by half or Shogun's reducing all arrow damage by 50%. Characters like the Samurai classes have Iai Slash as a long range ability rather than being something that takes MP to use(though not quite as good but still good.) All characters have the ability to attack normally, or due a different stronger attack for less of a hit percentage, with all hit percentage now shown. Other things like Dinadin being his own special class, Thunder attacks being moved over to Green elemental, Lance becoming Green elemental, and a new monster class and new items. The new monster class is actually a version of my favorite monster class(upgraded from Lizard Guard to Lizard King,) in which the new Lizard King can now move and attack twice each turn, like a Ninja.

    Anyways. I've played this game as a download. I've only seen it once on Ebay, which at the time didn't have the money. Unfortunately the game is Japanese only but there has been a translation patch.
    Everything in the above post is opinion unless stated otherwise.

    I actually got Willy, the talkie version, on CD for like, $5 at a local K-mart over 10 years ago. It didn't have any watch with it, though. I still have the CD (and maybe the manual somewhere), but the box is loooong gone. It was kind of a weird skinny box if I remember right.
    I've only successfully played it once, though. For some reason I've never been able to get it to work with any of my own PCs or DOSbox, ScummVM or anything like that. I remember it was WAY better than the Sega CD version though, mainly for there being captions and it didn't take 20 seconds to load each screen.
    Maybe someday I can get it to work... Until then, I'll never know what happens after the toot-sweet frog jump contest.

    Recca Summer Carnival '92.

    A pricey cart even loose, but its the game that pushed the FC/NES hardware to its absolute limits. The only bullet hell shooter on the hardware to boot.

    Perhaps sometime this year, if I'm lucky.

    I'd love a complete copy of SNES Chrono trigger, and I'd also like a seperate loose cartridge that I can play. I loved that game. I remember playing it throughout my 6th grade or something, but I played the PS version.

    As far as classic gaming goes, I'd like an MIB copy of Final Fantasy III (VI) (SNES), just for collecting's sake since it's my favorite game of all time I have an MIB copy of it for Super Famicom, but I'd like the US version, too

    Super Mario RPG for the Super Nintendo. I would love to own it but I have been waiting for digital distribution to crash the market price for that game before I put my money down.

    Snatcher for the SegaCD. I keep drooling at it on eBay but I never have the (enormous amount of) cash required to purchase it.

    One day, though.... it will be mine.

    Maybe also a CIB Earthbound for SNES.
