Dragon Quest 5
I like dragon quest alot, most of them are incredible (Except 7, god damn I hated 7) but 5 stands out in my mind. It's scope is absolutely amazing and it's a great story through and through.

Golden Sun

Because you've played it and know that it's that good? I'm sick of people just taking games at their brand name and instantly assuming they're gonna be "the best" or "great". Brand loyalty is what leads to the crash of the video game market.

And why no Sonic Chronicles? That's just random. Probably because, as mentioned before, it's a sneaky "what game should I play" thread.

IDK, I find there's a lot of RPGs for the DS but not a lot worth playing. I think the PSP has better RPGs. Go ahead, bash me.

How do you know if he had played it or not?

Goldun Sun combines everything that is great of turn-based RPGs and adds Zelda-like elements to it. Your standard RPG you walk around a room, entrance to exit, fighting random battles, In Golden Sun, every room is a Zelda-like puzzle trial. If you don't have the means to solve a puzzle now, you solve it later when you collected more items. And Djin's add more depth to your RPG battles than other standard RPGs because a Djin affects your stats and sometimes your entire move list. And Goldensun games are direct moment-to-moment sequals from each other, something rare in any game. Goldensun is one of the most unique RPG's even though some people don't even realize it yet. Its ever-deserving as a Best RPG title.

Anyways, moving past that, yeah, Sonic Chronicles was a bit random. Who would honestly nominate any sonic game ever made being the best of a genre?

And ignoring the title, Final Fantasy 12, IMO is the best/my favorite game of all time, let alone Best RPG game.

But all that aside, I'm getting a bit annoyed with the "Favorite/Best of" topics.

Yeah, I guess Golden 1 & 2 aren't out yet. The OP was misleading because he said best RPG, not best RPG exclusively on DS.

GBAtemp.net > Nintendo DS Discussions > NDS - Games


Sure.

My point exactly. Anyway, let's stay on topic. If they wanted to discuss RPG's in general, we have a General Console Discussion place for that.

Gamerankings? Really? The ratings they give aren't good at all, they rate great games really bad, et vice versa. Nothing to like about them. You're best off just Googling 'best DS RPGs', although then you might miss out on a bunch of J-only RPGs.

    Ken, your hamster inside it is hungry. Can't you turn POE on/off in your WiFi settings page? Or is it not staying on?

  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    @BigOnYa, Well, in that thread they say it's pretty much safe to manage save files back and forth to consoles as long as you don't go online with cheats activated or with a pirate game.
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    I own every of my games legit with their own cartridges
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    also, I'm not planning to use any cheats, etc, just continue the normal gameplay on the emulator
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It only gives a internet settings option then it spazes out

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @ATEMVEGETA if you use save from other switch you may be ok, but using a save from emulator to switch will prob get you banned
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Under ipv4/6
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    The save file will be created and started normally on the Switch's OFW with a legit game. Then that save file will be transfered to the emulator and continue the gameplay there. Then send it back to the console.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I feel like I need to touch @Sicklyboy rack to make it work at this point
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    The save file(s) would never be created first in an emulator
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    Do you think continuing the story on the emulator would flag the save file as illegal? (Again no cheats, etc will take place, only normal story of the game progress)
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But still using the save on a emulator, then back to switch is shady

  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    Yea, that's the only thing I want to clarify actually. If someone has tried it with no problems.
    +1
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    If using the save on the emulator flags the save file. :/
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    Again, "using" I mean normal gameplay not modify it with other means like pokehex, etc
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    @BigOnYa, Can you help me clarify this thing somehow? Do you know someone that may know or have tried it?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just play it on the emulation at home and portable use the normal save, I wouldn't risk anything if online is important to you
