Great! Another hour + video, been waiting for more of these. Thanks Jordan!

I have the Prinny presents game and bought the nice Collector’s Edition of the 2nd and 3rd games. Utterly charming, simple JRPGs with nice characters. Agree with the negative points but doesn’t detract too much from the experience.

Thanks for showing this game, maybe i might pick it up

Thanks for sharing - seems like a fun game worth checking out! And thank you for letting us know to “watch” at the ending 🎵

Love all the rhapsody games so charming ❤ thank you for the video! 🎶

Thank you for all the great content!!!

I never even played the game but that scene at the end got me in the feels. 🎵

Thanks Jordan for another cool retrospective. Cannot stand the singing parts in the game but had to buy it on switch:) Still a nice RPG game. 🎵 🎶

I really love the art for this game.

A charming game, bought a used copy for like a few bucks back in around 2002, definitely had some problems with the game but the experience stuck with me all these years later. 🎵

These games remind me of like when you're watching a TV show you like and then all the sudden unexpectedly they burst out in the song.

nice one. played this back in the day but i cant remember if i ever finished it. 🎶🎵

I had to say her name as "Shar-tay" (like Shantae) just to make it through because I am not sure if I would have been able to continue on in a game with a companion named Shart. 😂

I want to get this game on switch now

Luna is that you? 8:30

This is mostly how I felt playing the game, too. I've actually played the DS version first, but I don't really remember much of it. But I recently played it on the Switch in preparation for the other games coming out (that I, of course, haven't started yet...). It's a short game, I'm glad it's not a full-blown 40 hour RPG, but maybe stretching it a bit to, say, 15 hours would have helped for each area to have a bit more of an impact. The dungeons really feel like an afterthought, like something they added at the end when most of the budget had run out. Maybe it wasn't planned as an RPG at first? I don't know anything about its development history. It really is a shame that the incredibly low difficulty lets you ignore just about everything about the battle system. There's that bar with the notes in the top right. I finished the game and still have no idea what that does. Every battle is just using one or two area attacks and they're over. You don't even have to worry about MP, because you level up so fast they get replenished all the time. Two needless things I wanted to add: The restaurant scene is actually a parody of (or rather a nod to) a Japanese short story by Kenji Miyazawa called "The Restaurant of Many Orders" in English, which I only recognized, because I read that shortly before playing the game, by pure coincidence. Doesn't excuse the multiple revisits, though. And also, my favorite dumb joke in the game: No one might really know what "philanthropy" does in the game, but I laughed when I saw that it was cured by an item called "reality". Most definitely something added by the translator.

green day is Disney musical with spiky hair. 100% agree! ;)

If only I could just let goooooooo~ Help me let my feelings shooooooooooooooooowww…~

🎶🎵🎼 Nice video

Just fyi, the white snow part, was done bad on purpose. Go check Legends of localization Is This Snowy Translation Really Literal?

0:05 ("Endless stream of C-tier RPGs") Wow, between this and some latter statements, I take it you don't like NIS all that much. Makes sense, most people apparently don't. Only really learned that relatively recently. Kind of sad but I guess it's not surprising. Most niche'er developers tend to not have decent reputations unfortunately. 30:20 (Premium Edition Games) Huh, really now? Funny that. There was actually a physical edition order I made from you guys nearly a year ago and there's been nothing but complete silence since. Even checking the listing page, there's been no update information or anything. Kind of growing skeptical to be honest. Oh well, whatever, just gotta keep being patient I guess. 1:23:26 ...no.

I love RPGs, but man, musicals are like nails on a chalkboard to me. 🎶

3:25 - What about The Ugly?

Super Star Wars mention A Y O?

"China appears to be going back to its old ways. Its companies are reportedly setting up volunteer armies, something which was more common in the 1970s. Several of the country’s state-owned enterprises and a private firm have established in-house fighting forces over the last year." I bet the pay is better.

Hello friends! I like the fact that you are using a CRT shader, coincidentally I have a lot of gameplay videos with CRT shaders on my channel, please stop by to say hello!
