I would assume the pricetag on skies would keep people away. Then again, I guess the same would hold true for Ogre Battle too..TEKTORO wrote:noiseredux wrote:I would be up for a Dragon Warrior, OR if we wanted to do something a little newer, perhaps Skies of Arcadia?
I would have to fetch the Gamecube version for Skies.
Would Rogue Galaxy (PS2) Have a purpose?

Skies on the Dreamcast is sub $30 for a used copy shipped on ebay. 80ish for a Cube copy.o.pwuaioc wrote:I would assume the pricetag on skies would keep people away. Then again, I guess the same would hold true for Ogre Battle too..
Keep the suggestions coming. This will probably be up until next week then the TR folk will bounce the list around a couple days and we will have the list this time next week.

vgpc has both the DC and GCN version of Skies listed at right around $30. I don't think that's really outrageous.o.pwuaioc wrote: I would assume the pricetag on skies would keep people away. Then again, I guess the same would hold true for Ogre Battle too..
EDIT: Amazon has copies of Skies for $30-$40 GCN. And if yr local GS has it in stock it's $20. BUT if everyone agrees it's too expensive, then let's decide on another one...

are we calling Bomberman a Party game or a Puzzle game? I'd personally put it in the party category, as to me the appeal to Bomberman is in multiplayer.

Re: Together Retro 2012 Nominations & Discussion Thread
If we're gonna play bomberman, then my vote goes to Bomberman '94/Mega Bomberman. It's on PC Engine/Mega Drive(/Genesis)/PSN and VC. I was kinda looking forward to the potential for a pinball or rhythm game though. Bomberman in single player is boring :Snoiseredux wrote:are we calling Bomberman a Party game or a Puzzle game?

Bomberman is a party game, but there is no good version that is on multiple platforms. Many of the games are similar, but they are not the same. Which version are yall pushing for? The only two I know that are on more than two platforms are Jetters (ps2, gamecube, xbox) and Bomberman (TG16, Gameboy, pcs - Nes game is different).

Bomberman 94 for PC Engine is out on VC and I think PSN. Mega Bomberman for Mega Drve/Genesis is a port.fastbilly1 wrote:Bomberman is a party game, but there is no good version that is on multiple platforms.

If you can see the future while remembering the past, you may just have control of the present.
