Topic: Universal Recommendations Thread

@Buizel You've got Crisis Core? I loved that on the PSP. As long as you're playing it on the original hardware, it's definitely worth playing, particularly if you played Final Fantasy VII.

@Krull Yep, I've actually played a few hours of it already (but I'd restart in this instance), and quite enjoyed it. I just wish it was playable on Vita / PSTV!

I'll consider it but it's very much less RPG-like than the others on my list.

MicroSD memory card -

Had this deal come through from Amazon:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B073S99KPQ/ref=cm_cr_arp_mb_...

I'm awaiting my Switch, so still trying to get the 'right' MicroSD card.

My question, is this card suitable/fast enough? And is this a good deal (I'm a little in the dark with the cost of these cards)

Appreciate any recommendations/advice.

Cheers.

@Tops I'd highly recommend Persona 5 as long as you don't mind having some social simulation elements tagged along with the JRPG experience.

I have a couple semi-connected questions. I decided to scour the Wii Shop because I knew I had some points still on it. I was thinking I would probably get Ys Book 1 and 2 in preparation for Ys VIII coming out and I've always wanted to play it, but then I saw Final Fantasy II is on there which I didn't know. I have thought about that too since I'm almost done with the original on the NES Classic and then have FFIII on the SNES Classic. Which of these two games would you recommend? Also, is there an easier or better way to get either of these games since I never play my Wii anymore? Finally, they both cost 800 points, and I apparently only have 700. Is there any way to only add 100 points, because I don't really want to pay $10 to add 1000 points to a console I never play. Thanks.

@MarcelRguez I actually meant between FF 2 and Ys Book 1&2 (which is one game on the Wii shop). Sorry for the confusion. I already have FF 3 on the SNES Classic and was considering trying to play 2 first. But I've also always thought Ys looked interesting but have never played one. But if there is no way to simply pay $1 to add 100 points, chances are good I won't get either (at least not on the Wii).

@MarcelRguez OK, thanks. Yeah, the lowest it lets you add is 1000 points for $10, which I realized I could do and then just afford both games, but I'm not sure I want to do that on a system I never play anymore (I was only going to get something just to use the points I already have). If FF 2 is on the Wii U shop for only $8, I may go that route.

@Tops
Uncharted Collection then Uncharted 4 are must, must, must buy.

Can I talk about music? Yes? Ok.
Been listening to a lot of Lemon Demon recently and I'm wondering if any of you also like weird altrock/pop nerd stuff. I need more of that in my life. If any of you somehow have the same taste in music as me, what should I listen to?

I would also say the spinoff, Lost Legacy is great. In fact, along with Uncharted 2 they're my faves.

@SuperLuigi111
I’ll get round to that eventually for sure. I’m deep in a WoW playing phase atm, no time to do much else.
I bought the special edition Uncharted 4 PS4. Sometimes I just sit and admire it.

Hehe, yeah I know how that can be, to be very focused on one thing. In your own time, enjoy.

@Xyphon22
Final Fantasy II (or FF IV, if you prefer to call it that) is NOT available on Wii U.
But it IS available on GBA, DS, PSP, PS one, PC, and mobile.

if you're asking for advice, I recommend Ys, because it hasn't been re-released as much.

If you haven't played Power Stone, you should.

@ReaderRagfihs I'd say 2 is better due to 4-player support, but both games have their advantages. With that many players plus stage hazards, 2 gets chaotic. The smaller arenas and a single opponent in 1 gives the game focus. It feels a little more like a fighting game whereas 2 approches party game territory.

What computer game tv stations can I get in Ireland or on the net

More people need to play the game Bully (by Rockstar) it is way more unknown than it should be.

Does anybody have any advice on what would be the best Zelda game for a 7-year-old to start with? My son loves Mario, but he has seemed to be getting more into Zelda lately, just talking about it and wanting me to tell him stories. I have played them all, but I grew up on the original and I'm not sure what would be the best game for a kid to start on. It seems like maybe Minish Cap or Link Between Worlds might be good, but my son does not really play the 3DS. Any suggestions?

@Xyphon22 Is there any other systems he own besides the 3ds?

@Captain_Toad I own every Zelda game in one form or another. I was just saying that because those two games which seem to me like they might be good for a first Zelda game I only have on the 3DS. Also the GB ones (the two Oracles and Awakening) I only have on the 3DS, too.
