lady in soul hackers 2


the actual trailer


It's doing a pretty good job capturing and modernizing the vibe of the original soul hackers. And despite dropping the devil summoner moniker, it looks like it's going to be referencing and bringing in characters from that series.

So I haven't played any of the puzzle games. But there's a few other genres Sailor Moon dabbled in on the SNES. There's the Street Fighter-esque fighting games that are pretty decent! I don't remember which one I played, but I'm sure they're all pretty similar, if with different iterations introducing different characters and moves, but the one I played is pretty good!

They also have Streets of Rage / Simpsons Arcade / Turtles in Time type beat'em-ups- walk along until the camera stops and enemies fight you and then it tells you to keep going. Same thing- if you like that sort of gameplay, they're fine. I played one in an arcade a number of years ago with a friend (me picking Sailor Mercury of course) and you'd be able to pull off special moves with full screen animations and that's pretty cool. Last time I played one of the SNES ones was forever ago, so I don't remember how different they are, but I remember having a good time.

Now, the big one is Sailor Moon: Another Story. It's a full on RPG with an original story. I'll let Wikipedia tell you more:
Quote:
In Another Story, a sorceress named Apsu arrives from the 30th century. She has formed a group of girls from Crystal Tokyo known as the "Opposito Guardians" and ordered them to alter the past in order to change the future to her liking, with the ultimate goal of attaining the Silver Crystal. Apsu and her followers succeed in changing the fates of the defeated villains from the first three-story arcs, bringing deceased villains back to life and turning reformed and healed individuals back to the darkness. With the advice of the ghosts of the Four Kings of Heaven, the Guardians set out to regain the Barazuishō (Rose Crystal), Tuxedo Mask's stone (which replaces the Golden Crystal in the game) in order to change Sailor Moon's destiny back and to save Crystal Tokyo.
You have a team of five Sailor Guardians for your party and as the story progresses you'll unlock other characters (depending on plot- early chapters see you separate and have limited party members). Different characters in your party allow for different team up moves. Music's by the main composer from the anime, and they bring in voice clips of the actresses, which is pretty cool. You'll recognize random enemy encounters as some of the monsters of the day from the anime. It was never officially localized, but years ago it was translated by a team including the original creator of Lunar Magic (the SMW editor). Since then, there's been a much better translation and I'd recommend playing that. I played the original translation years ago and have since returned to the newer translation. A very good RPG.

Hey I just saw this post, thanks for all the great info! I'll have to look into them though and just play through them for him if he's not so into the gameplay as I think he'll freak getting to see all the characters. That RPG especially seems like his style so I'm looking forward to watching him try that out, will have to check out the translation you mentioned!


i did end up trying to change a setting and seem to have broken retropie tho...

Have a 2TB drive coming in (So I can play Dreamcast games for the first time ever(!)) so I think I'm just gonna' do a reinstall on that when I get it, but it was nice having access to so many games I'd never heard of.

Funnily enough, the whole entire thing ended up breaking 'cause I couldn't get Banjo-Kazooie running well. Tooie was fine tho.

I wanted to spend all weekend playing the port of Persona 4 Arena, but that PC port is awful. Most of the audio is very quiet, but some attacks don't seem to honor the volume menu at all

Trying my hand at the first Final Fantasy game for the first time in well over a decade.

Playing the PSP port since that has the most content from what I understand.

The pixel remaster just looks soulless from what I've seen.
