Hi all,
Many weeks ago I e-mailed the list asking for suggestions on my 1000th
console video game. First off, I'd like to thank everyone for all the great
suggestions! I also appreciate everyone not being extremely biased
towards the turbo. Secondly, I'd like to say that as of today; I reached
game number 1000! Many of you asked that I let you know what ended
up happening... so here goes.
Game #999 (wife's pick) - Sailor Moon RPG (Super Famicom)
Game #1000 (my pick) - Treasures of Rudora (Super Famicom)*
Game #1001 (our pick) - Record of the Lodoss War 1(PC-Engine)
(My wife and I love the Lodoss War series, and all the games with the
name, so it only came naturally that we would decide together to start
the next thousand with a Lodoss War game.)
*I wasn't able to find anyone who would give up a Sapphire (which was
my initial pick), and I own EVERY other Squaresoft RPG on SuperFam, so
I thought Rudora was appropriate.
OTHER CANDIDATES for #1000 (that I bought anyway):
Gundam Wing: Endless Battle (Super Famicom)
Godzilla Super Battle (Super Famicom)
Tales of Phantasia (Super Famicom)
Record of the Lodoss War (Super Famicom)
DragonBall Z Gaiden (Famicom)
Macross ELS (PC-Engine)
Emerald Dragon (PC-Engine)
Far East of Eden 2 (PC-Engine)
Record of the Lodoss War 2 (PC-Engine)
OTHER CANDIDATES for #1000 (that I could not find):
Sapphire (PC-Engine) - #1 pick - too bad I couldn't find
Magical Chase (PC-Engine)
Dynastic Hero (PC-Engine)
Darius Alpha (PC-Engine)
Strider (PC-Engine/SGX - if it exists)
Neo Bomberman (Neo Geo)
the 1st PONG unit. (no one knows who made the absolute 1st system)
Before someone asks - I already own a mint copy of Drac X, so it
couldn't be considered for #1000.
Again, thanks for all the suggestions! (and sorry about the length of this
e-mail)
