I've been loving Otogi Katsugeki Mameda no Bakeru: Oracle Saitaroi non Sainan!!, great taiko drum fighting system and transformations too! Just lovely 3D platformer all-around.

If you have a Japanese account it did have a launch discount too, the language hasn't been much of barrier.

(This is Good-Feel's Ganbare Goemon spiritual successor BTW)

Re: Talking Point: The Games We Got Rid Of - What Were We Thinking?

In 1998 my mom got me Gold Box Zelda Ocarina of Time when it came out and I played it and didn't like it because you couldn't jump like Mario 64.

Since I couldn't watch the show (and Software Etc didn't care if you were a kid buying M rated games) I traded it for South Park 64. Which I did play and have fun with friends but wasn't great.

I learned my lesson and never traded or got rid of any of my collection since that. I got a letter about this story highlighted in EGM in 2007, so that's a silver lining too!
