Unfortunately I don't have an SNES anymore, and my Chromebook is actually too weak to play emulators, or at least it plays them slow as ****, and I haven't played the game since high school, so that's not gonna work.

And how do you know you only like the GBA and N64 ones if you only ever played the SNES one years ago back when you were too young and dumb to appreciate it? The GBA one kinda sucks, anyway.

Here's one im currently playing

Uncharted waters: New horizons (Genesis)

it's a sequel to the 1st Uncharted waters which i never played

Description :

"Like the original, UWNH is a Wide Open Sandbox with RPG Elements, offering you the world's entire oceans to explore. The trading and combat mechanics remain mostly the same with a few new tweaks, but the exploration mode of the game was completely revamped: you now gain fame not only by discovering remote ports, but by searching native villages for unique discoveries, ranging from geographical or cultural wonders to exotic plants and animals. You can then sell these discoveries to the highest bidder, as well as make maps of your voyages and sell them to cartographer guilds for a nifty profit."

This game was ported to the Snes too but im playing the Genesis version cause it's one of the few rpgs the Genesis had.

Most of us know a couple of Snes rpgs that were masterpieces for the time but few ppl ever mention Genesis rpgs.

The few ppl that do always mention Phantasy star or Shinning force cause let's be honest the Genesis wasn't exactly known for it's rpgs, but it has a few gems like Beyond Oasis and Shadowrun (my fav genesis game) and many others rpgs that ppl just didn't pay attention to.

Uncharted waters is one of those games and it's a shame cause it's a pretty good game but im gonna be honest, the graphics are quite awful

It looks like a Nes rpg but aside from the graphics, it's a pretty good game.

At the beginning you get 6 characters to choose from each one fighting for a different contry and with a different story

i chose the last guy on the bottom right, the middle eastern looking one, His name is Ali Vezas

To my turkish delight, Ali starts the game in istanbul



His story is he is an orphan looking for his sister Stapha. by luck he gets his hands on a ship his friend Salim had and they decide to become merchants.

easy enough, right? WRONG! first you gotta repair the ship and ask the townfolks for start up money, you literally have to go through every shop in town with a schtick of "Sir, what if i told you i could tenfold your money with just 1 simple investment" :p:

Once you get the money though, it's time to ship out and start buying goods low and selling them high

That's pretty much the game, the only battles in the game are ship battles that play like a tactics rpg but in those battles there's a Duel option with a pretty cool system

This is the only hand-to-hand combat you'll see in the game.

overall it's a pretty good nautical rpg worthy of checking out

Going back to the Nes, here is a game my cousin had that was way beyond our heads.

Metal Gear (Nes)

http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb2...Gear-NES-_.jpg

I remember liking this game but barely understanding it, Keep in mind i was like 8 and barely knew english, my cousin only had 3 Nes games, Mario 2, Centipede and this game. Given what i know now i had no idea how far the franchise was gonna go but i remember thinking it was just another war game like P.O.W or Ikari warriors

The more i played it though, the more i saw it was a completely different kinda war game. Even back then MG focused on stealth making this a weird Nes game for the time cause almost every war game for the Nes was either a beat'em up or a shoot'em up, tactical spyonage games weren't very popular.

Even though the game dropped obvious hints like that my first instinct was to kill the guy.

That's what war games taught me to do, kill every enemy but you're actually supposed to play this game like you would the modern MG games.

All you start with is your cigarettes and an old version of your codec that makes the most annoying sound



Story wise i don't remember much of it but i replayed this game after the playstation MG game and i remember it being the usual MG story but even more basic.

it's about stoping Metal gear like always but in this game Metal gear was just a tank that was hard as sh*t.
To be honest, im not sure if MG was indeed a tank in the game but that's the only major boss the game has apart from Big boss

This game almost plays exactly like the ps1 MG, your rank goes up as you progress and you need different cards and gadgets to get into buildings

It's a fun game, i recommend it to fans of the MG series

Have you played Suikoden 2?

Lufia II is a legit pick.

Great game, Right?

i remember renting it at Blockbuster back when the Saturn and the Ps1 were taking over the market.
i played Lufia 2 as the Snes was becoming outdated and right away playing it i knew i found a gem.

i haven't replayed it since then but i remember the game being a superb rpg with great puzzle sections. i rented that game for like a month until i passed it.

Yup, that one i remember well, it's one of my favorite rpgs of all time.

Im gonna cover Suikoden 1 & 2 eventually unless someone does it first, i'd be kinda interested to see someone else cover it to compare notes.

How about some Sega Genesis?

Desert Strike was always my goto:
