Hmm, I have the Gen cart, 360 Sonic collection, and on the Wii VC. I am trying to decide which way to play it this time...

Hm, I'll probably play on the 360 Genesis collection.

I hope I can finish this. SRPGs have never been easy for me.

Did you play and finish Shining Force 1 for TR?

I played the hell out of this in middle school, so it is very approachable and simple while still being fun.

No, I wasn't able to participate in that one, I was really busy with work at the time as I recall.

I did play SF1 on my own years ago, but I never finished it. I got stuck on some battle or another.

I'll give SF2 an honest shot. I'm glad to hear its not too overwhelming. I don't know what it is, but I just have a hard time with these games in general.

Even FF Tactics, which I hear people deride as being easy, was a major effort for me to finish when I played it way back when. That game beat me senseless.

I probably just suck. :lol:

For some reason, I thought that this game was on the Sega Genesis Collection (PS2)...

I have the original cart, but I always worry about the battery giving out on me when I play an RPG on an old system...Also, I am much more likely to play portable RPGs. Is there a legal, portable version of this game for a relatively modern system?

If not, I may have to rock it '90s style by firing up the original cart in my Nomad...

yeah but not on a portable...

I thought there may have been a mobile version but I could be mistaken.

I'm down for playing this but I"m gonna have to emulate it as I don't own any cart or repacked version of it for another system.

Just curious: Is this game a direct sequel to Shining Force 1? Will I be missing anything having not playing the first?
