Goodies! i've been waiting for this release. Played it back in the Nes days, and again recently with an emu on my ds, but nothing beats my tv set for 8-bit goodness
Nice mix of Adventure and Action, kinda like a tropical Zelda.

I am sort of surprised more are not talking about this game.
I played it back on the Nes when it had first came out.. I do not remember much about it except for liking it a lot.. Yeah for VC releases.. time for me to buy some credits.

This is an absolutely epic game...its like Zelda but in a tropical environment...I remember owning this while I was a kid...it came with this strange letter attached the manual which I would have to wet with water and revealed a code. That was SO AWESOME.

This is one of the very few first-party Nintendo titles never released in Japan. Pokemon Puzzle League was another.
Dr. Mario 64 didn't reach N64 there, but its GC port was included on the JP-only Nintendo Puzzle Collection.

TwoSpikedHands:
yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -

TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it

TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
