I freaking LOVE this game. I still remember picking up a copy back in the 90s the day it came out using small bills and change I'd been saving up for months. My folks and grandparents stopped at macdonalds for lunch on the way home and I was reading the instruction manual the whole time we were at the restaraunt with intense anticipation and I was NOT disappointed one bit. I still sit down and play through this gem of a game like once a year or so.
It's different for sure, but the changes make it so I can share this with my Nephews so they can understand and appreciate the original from my childhood. Also enough of the changes are neutral or good that the negative ones don't bother me so much.

From the UI design to the character models, it bleaches away as much personality and creativity as possible.

One of the select games I 100%. Earthbound is another big one of mine. I think I'm going to work on Lufia 2 this year :).
Let's give Wailord a big shout out for being a consistent presence and support for all these runs
this run is so hot, a fire alarm went off before the timer even started 🔥
We got Spike on the mic?? Immediately goated 🫡
I really wish this game had a hard mode. It would have been a nearly perfect remake with just that added on...
GENO FOR SMASH BRAWL!!!!!!! Wait what year are we again?
I like doing boss only runs of this game its fun and challenging.
"Son, your old enough to ride on the uwu bus" 😂😂😂
SPIKE VEGETA!!!!! Already hyped
In the UK sports community they call that "industrial language".
BROWN.
God what a shitty remake. It's a borderline tragedy that people are playing _this_ instead of the original. Great run though.

It's a good remake, actually
