I was unimpressed tbh.
I had to pretty much force myself to play through them. That's why it took me a few months. The only things I liked were the opening presentation to the first game, the werewolf village, and the ending to Golden Sun TLA. Other than that, boring dialogue, uninteresting characters, finding Djinni was annoying, encounter rate was annoying. I didn't play this in 2001, so I understand I don't get the nostalgia goggles. I give my experience with both these games a 4.5/10. --- ~Nintendo 64. Get N or Get out. Coming Fall 1996~ ... Copied to Clipboard!

Harsh. I remember loving those games. I started the first one up again a few days ago, but didn't get too far before playing something else. Might still go back to it.

I'm not surprised. They were impressive games for the time because an RPG of that scale was practically unheard of on a handheld. When compared to RPGs across all platforms or the games people can play on portable systems now they're fine games but nothing special.

Yeah this is pretty much what I've seen many others echo as well. After being spoiled with games like Trails in the Sky on PSP it's no wonder why I was bored with this game. --- ~Nintendo 64.

They were very good when they came out. Some of the best handheld games available. They do not make JRPGs like that anymore. --- You're a regular Jack Kerouac ... Copied to Clipboard!

Golden Sun was a solid entry but Golden Sun 2 kind of taints the legacy. I loved the first one but whoever wrote the second one got SUPER high on their own writing. They managed to produce an unbelievably dense and astoundingly average script with tired characters and a played-out plot. I've never finished the second one because of it.

When playing older games, I give them leniency and consider platform limitations. It helps me enjoy all the older games I play without blindly loving every one.

I never finished the 2nd one. I don't remember where I left off either. The dumbest thing was how they turned Felix into a silent protagonist when he talked a lot in the first game.

I finished the third game and while the gameplay is fine enough, the story is meh and every cutscene drags on forever because there's like 10 characters and they all have to give their two cents every time.

gba best handheld ever fite me irl I agree with you. In fact I went so far as to get backlight screen installed in my platinum GBA (Non-SP). I will always love Mega Man Battle Network. I have fond memories of that game as a kid. Same with DBZ Legacy of Goku 2. I started playing the first Mother game on GBA and I love the hell out of it. I must be in a very small minority who loves GBA but hates Golden Sun. --- ~Nintendo 64. Get N or Get out. Coming Fall 1996~ ... Copied to Clipboard!

In fact I went so far as to get backlight screen installed in my platinum GBA (Non-SP).i made it my mission as a kid to complete the gba library, you'd be surprised how many hidden gems it has like Scurge:Hive, CIMA:The Enemy and Summon Night...the fun never ended. Camelot was also responsible for the gba Mario tennis and Mario Golf games, both of which were also really good. still need to go back and beat some of the MMBN bonus bosses and mega man battle chip challenge I started buu's fury the week it came out and i remember the global hype about it, everybody i knew and the entire internet was simultaneously grinding the game to completion...you don't really get stuff like that anymore, those were the golden times also reminds me of this mega cringe topic from eons ago where i went against some troll lol https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/920530-dragon-ball-z-buus-fury/44417113 --- democrats sus ...
