Anyone tried this on a Supercard SD? If so what's the performance like? Thinking of picking up an EZFA. Someone accidently threw mine in the trash last christmas in the wrapping paper

ArcDiditBiatch = TPi O_O?

What does that mean anyway? Arc did what?

 

[Youkai]

ArcDiditBiatch = TPi O_O?


What does that mean anyway? Arc did what?

ArctheLad dumped it on iRC and tagged it as "Arc did it, Bitch!" because he was excited.

And Dirtie, no. I'm not that cool.

 

[Dirtie]

You might wanna try #gbatemp then

Not that there's any ROMs there either or anything...

@ TPi: Yeah, I ended up figuring that out, it's just your earlier post was so cryptic :/

 

[Youkai]

lol i didn't know the name of the room .. somehow i could never find it and i didn't thaught it would be that easy so i never tried that

thanks


P.S @admins
may you put a nice big red link in the frontpage to the irc channel ? would be easyer for lazy ppl like me (or blind ones no clue ... )

 

[theOtherGuy]

It's floating around, but only some of us have it right now. Everybody will have it tomorrow.

But so far...with this game, the English dubs.....

 

[StingX]

*will buy this one instead of romming*

haha, me and this guy was teasing with arc in the channel cause he said was getting the game in the hour, and we said he should dump it,and he ask if this program will dump it and it would so boom

Finally, a GBA rom that is worth downloading. Haven't had that for a long time now.
SNES port or not, I'll be sure to enjoy this one.

Actually, it's technically moreso a port of the PSX remake of the game, but with horribly downgraded graphics. The game actually comes across as really, really ugly looking in my opinion, especially when compared to either the SNES or PSX versions.

Nevertheless - official English translation? Hell yeah! I wanna see how well they did with this.

From first impressions, I don't really like this version at all =\..

They removed the ability to rename your character's first name.. no big deal i guess.. Also they removed the sound test.. So there's no real extras in the game to play with =|. Unless the in-game extras are all that great being the cooking and titles but I haven't played it enough yet to know (I believe these came from the PSX version).

It feels sluggish during the battles and if you compare it to the SNES version the GBA graphics look horrible.

There is no intro song like in the SNES version (never played the PSX so i don't know anything to compare it to there)

The voices are subpar.. lol even less in some cases than the fan voice patch by Gingo17.

Not sure how accurate the translation but it seems okay I guess.

All it comes down to me is that:

I hate that the music has no bass. The SNES version had that "duuuun Dunnnn duuunn dunnn" that is nowhere in the GBA version. So I find the ambienace of the game to be fairly poor to a version over 10 yrs old =O.

Thanks Namco/Nintendo for bring it over but it's just not up to par. Maybe an NDS version would have been more appropriate.

 

[Hitto]

So, does arche still "fuck like a tiger" in this one?

 

[kingkong]

great!

finally a really good gba again!! it didnt get 90% reviews but well over 70!

@paladin never in my life have i experienced someone bitching as much as you do! lol not even my gf's bitch that much

 

[Kezane]

The arche-tiger comment was added in the DeJap translation patch, which is somewhat inaccurate in many parts, even excluding the intentional parts.

I actually disagree about the previous poster's opinion on this game. The way I see it, these are some of the best graphics I've seen on the GBA. I happened to hate the song on the SNES version too - if you can't have it in good quality, don't even bother having it at all.

I'm amazed at how much detail there is in this game. The battle is slightly sluggish but still plays out very well. Also, you know a lot of polish has gone into a game where each item has its own individual description and picture.

Overall, I was actually quite impressed by this game. Definitely one of the top few RPGs of the GBA.

 

[SilverGenix]

the battles feel slowish.... apart from that its a great game

 

[Thorisoka]

AAHHHHHHHHHHHH ! wtf did they do with the voices ?! that's just unplayable >_

 

[Dokan]

i agree with the people finding this title quite many lacks, although i find the graphics pretty nice -- and the game just as great as addictive.
on sfc i couldn't use instant saves, ahh i love them! (obviously it's a copier feature, not built in the game)

 

[SpaceJump]

Finally understandable and it looks nice. But the voices are horrible. Imo it would be better if Namco had cut them

 

[Jojjy Ugnick]

graphic design is cluttered and ugly, (see the menu screen and other places), but it's an okay port.
Funny how the SNES version looks way better than this. Obviously it was just slapped together. Golden Sun looked better than this game.
Too bad about the voices though. Seriously, they should have just cut them out. Good thing you can turn them off.

you can? XO teach me o grand master!

the graphics aren't bad at all, but they sure don't stand a chance against the SNES version's graphics.
i found it rather shocking that the game was only 64 Mbit, the SNES version used to be like 1,5 times larger than the largest SNES rom available...
it could have been way better, but its good nonetheless
