One of these days, I'll add it to my PS1 collection (I haven't even seriously begun collecting for that system just yet...) IYou can get it dirt-cheap on the PS store if you have PS3/4. Be prepared to pay big bucks if you want the original PS1 discs. Here they go for like €75~€99 second hand.
But I'd really recommend it to you.

Quote:I bought Dragon Warrior I & II for the GBC last October, and I finally beat it last month.It's nice to see some retro-gaming here. I've always liked the Dragon Warrior OST (randomly stumbled upon it) and the gameplay reminds me a lot of the old Phantasy Star games.
Been meaning to get back to retro aswell, but I got such a huge backlog of games and got to balance things between gaming and/or watching stuff.
Quote:There are obvious hints where to go next, and you really can't wander around aimlessly without completing certain events. I guess back on the NES, ENIX finally got the JRPG formula right on the third try.Depending on how obscure (and even with), I still think there's some charm in em. My dad made his own walkthroughs back then of the NES games he played. He seemed to especially like the puzzles. It's quite impressive. I should probably scan them.
But nowadays (j)rpgs are theme parks where you go from a to b to c, etc. It'd be nice to have a different formula every now and then to refreshen up things. Couldn't hurt.
