Hi peoples Me again!! Now is your chance to enter your 8-bit suggestions. there
aren't very many but I think we'll survive! This is for us Moldy-oldies that
haven't got a 16-bit gaming system, Thanks for your responses

49 responses total.

Well, I still have my 8-bit NES, though I don't use it much.
Nevertheless, two of my all-time favorites are the classic
Legend of Zelda, and Metroid.

I know, strictly speaking, these aren't RPGs.  But they're close
enough, and they ARE great!

any video games at all are welcome just enter an item for them!

YES< I lke those kind to!  But Final Fantasy was the best RPG made for the NES!

Moldy I am NOT!

I think that many underestimate the RPG's on 8-bit, but the classics still
remain, Thanks new responses, Keep on coming!! Also check out other items!!

The Dragon Warrior games were reasonably decent.  So was the little-known
Dungeon Magic.

I had that once, but I hated it. I think that it could have been made better.
That wasn't well known probably because all the reviews that I have seen were
strictly negative.(including mine) most thought the game sucked

Well, to each his own, I guess.  I kind of liked figuring out the best
magic "incantations", but I can see how that might not appeal to
everyone.  Personally, I still think it's underrated.

Yeah, it WAS pretty good 3-d and stuff, but the magic was just mostly guessing
which wasn't great, but it was ahead of it's time.

gon warrior games.  I'm wondering if they will expand into super NES?

I really doubt it

In Japan, Dragon Warrior five is on the super-famicom, and Enix is working on
transllation to english and english likes. It looks somwhat like final fantasy
though.

I have to agree with kain, Final Fantasy is the best RPG for the NES, but it
does get boring after a while.  The graphics and music hardly ever change, and
it takes so long to build levels.  Still, it's probably the best one out there
for the NES.

Yeah, I didn't notice more than five different musics for it, but it was an '89
game, give it some credit!

The 8-bit systems are *dead*, people! Upgrade or delete!

Delete?!?!???  Whatever for?  I paid good money for my NES, back
when it was THE game system.  If the games still work and they're
fun, why should I just chuck 'em?  Sure, I play the new stuff, too.
But that's no reason to forget the old games.  For all their
limitations, the best old games are better than many of the newer ones.

He definatly has a point, (if your system still works!)

Well, mine works fine, phreaakus, we don't need such pessimism in this
conference. We like our systems and if you find a problem with that I suggest
you ignore this item, but try to understand, SOME of us don't have the $$$ to
get a $100 game system.

plork, put the gun down.  It's OK!

Oh, alright, but let's keep on topic!

Since you persist this anachronism, I'll give you 3 words of wisdom:
DRAGON WARRIOR IV

I agree It's the beast.  And I only plyed it a couple

Another goodie:  CRYSTALIS

You bet I loved that game

Yeah, even though it's pretty easy once you get the hang of it, it's still
a pretty cool game!

Try the warrior ring and crystalis sword on DYNA. It's REAL COOL!!!

I wish you could get Crystalis earlier.

yeah{

YOU CAN'T EVEN USE THE STUPID THING OTHER THAN IN THE BATTLE WITH DYNA!!! WHICH
REALLY SUCKS!!!!!

And DYNA not that hard once you get Crystalis.  Why don't they just end the
game after you beat what's-his-face?

Because there was all that blaber about the tower.

It was too short and too easy otherwise, just fly to Draygon and use deo's
pendant if you run low on MP, TOO EASY!!!!!

With Deo's pendant and the Psycho Armor, who needs an Inn?

really

They really should have made it either longer or more challenging.

Maybe if they doubled the length of the game AND replaced Deo's pendant
and the Psycho Armor with some wimpy stuff, it MIGHT be challenging.  I
mean, the whole idea of the swords and everything was kind of cool, but
they made the plot way to easy.

AND give you a chance to get used to Crystalis (the sword) and give you a
longer plan of destroying the tower in the sky. Maybe make you get captured by
draygon and have to use a steel sword for a bit....

Yeah, and then after just barely escaping the claws of Draygon, you fall 
overboard on your trusty rowboat and stumble upon a secret underground
city, run by mermaids and the liking.
