    Metroidvania on the Vita?

    In a few days, work is sending me far, far from home and when I'm not on the clock, I'll have lots of free time. That means I'll be getting to know my Vita a bit better. I know the handheld has Guacamelee and Castlevania: SotN, but are there any other games I could play on it (PS1 classics...

    Noir Games?

    Anxious to see what suggestions pop up. I'm a big noir fan but haven't seen many examples in gaming. Aside from the obvious, at least. Guess I'll just have to keep reading Raymond Chandler and James Ellroy in the meantime.

    Protective shells for 3DS XL?

    That Nerf case looks pretty beastly, to be sure. Anyone had any experiences with this one? http://www.play-asia.com/Body_Cover_for_3DS_LL_Pure_White/paOS-13-71-18g-49-en-70-5g5z-4-6.html I'd really had my heart set on an all-white 3DS and this is sadly the only shell/body cover I've...

    Protective shells for 3DS XL?

    So. In my attempt to build up my 3DS collection, I've realized that I want some extra protection for the console. Plus, I'm a bit OCD when it comes to grime/smudges. And it doesn't hurt being able to change the color, too! Oh, how sexy an all black or white 3DS XL would be.... Anyway. Are...

    RPGs for the DS?

    The World Ends With You looks really, really cool. However, reading about the combat... yeesh. Stupid question, but any lefties have any issues with it?

    RPGs for the DS?

    Thanks again for all the replies. Pretty jazzed right now. Just got back from Gamestop (I know, I know) where I picked up copies of FFIV DS and Nostalgia for less than $20. Never heard of Black Sigil but I'll keep my eye out. Right now, looking for a copy of Radiant Historia that isn't...

    RPGs for the DS?

    Are you talking old school Castlevania? Or Lords of Shadow-type? But I'll look into Order of Eclessia. Appreciate the tip. And have you spent much time with the FF4 DS remake?

    RPGs for the DS?

    Is there much of a plot/character development in the Etrian Odyssey series? Or is it strictly dungeon crawling? And how much action is really in the Rune Factory series? Does it feel tacked on?

    RPGs for the DS?

    Thanks a ton for the replies. I'm attempting to track down a copy of Radiant Historia. Hope to also snag Nostalgia, despite its mediocre reviews. I loved the original Golden Sun. Lots of good memories with that title. I'll look into this latest entry. And Phantasy Star Zero has certainly...

    What is your Badass Creed?

    Yeah, this one still gets me every time: "You gotta be a good guy, Jesse. You gotta be like John Wayne: You don't take no s**t off fools, and you judge a person by what's in 'em, not how they look. And you do the right thing. You gotta be one of the good guys, son: 'Cause there's way too many...

    RPGs for the DS?

    Hey, both of those sound awesome. DQ V particularly sounds cool-- can't think of many games where you control your protagonist from childhood to fatherhood. Are there actual party members you can recruit and interact with? Big knock on DQ IX-- creating your party members creates a rather...

    RPGs for the DS?

    Man oh man. I haven't played Pokemon since Red/Blue. Has it changed much beyond the addition of new Pokemon? And any major differences between Black 2/White 2?

    Your go-to game?

    RE4. I can play that game to kingdom come. Oh-so fun.

    I REALLY Want to Like You!

    Skyrim. I very much wanted to like it. But after the first few hours, the world just felt so dull and lifeless to me. Of course, it doesn't help that I thought the combat was absolutely turrible too. And would it have killed Bethesda to have made to paladin-esque armor in the game? I...

    RPGs for the DS?

    Well, I finally caved and bought a 3DS XL. At this point in my life, a portable gaming experience is just more realistic for me. But that's beside the point. I snagged a copy of Chrono Trigger and Dragon Quest IX. Enjoying both thus far. But I'm looking for a few other titles to help...
