    I squeezed every second out of golden sun part 1 and 2. I just knew about everything in this gem! Part 2 was probably the most anticipated game for me ever....

    Great series! Both your primary channel content and Golden Sun. I was never the best at video games, but I had the patience and curiosity to play turn-based JRPGs. Golden Sun was a great addition to the GBA catalog.

    Great video(s). I've gotta say - the worst thing about Golden Sun really was that 'wordiness'. It's not like I dont have the attention span to deal with a lot of reading/dialogue, it's the fact that the characters in this game just ramble on without saying ANYTHING actually meaningful, often just kind repeating or reinforcing what they've already said over and over, which was often a lot of basic tropey JRPG stuff in the first place. Extremely good games otherwise, and it's a massive shame Nintendo stopped commissioning them. I feel like bringing this franchise back would provide another big tentpole JRPG series for them alongside Pokemon and Xenoblade, all filling a somewhat different niche within the genre.

    I never finished Golden Sun. I didn't dislike it, it's one of those "I got distracted by something and it took a while for me to get back to it and I forgot what I was doing" sorts of deals. Man, though, the fanbase for this series is passionate. Really hope Golden Sun 4 happens one of these days, just because I know Dark Dawn ends on a cliffhanger.

      I haven't noticed the trend myself, but there have been leaks/rumors of Nintendo testing a GBA emulator/app for the Switch, so maybe some UA-camrs are trying to get ahead of the search spike in case that app is announced. ;)

      @@WhatsSoGreatAboutGaming Yeah, I've seen that, and with GS one of the first ones to come out (according to the leak) that would make sense.

    I liked this game, but especially the early gameplay where I already had an idea of where to go and what to do, the unskippable dialog made this too hard to pick up again and replay. Like it felt like ten minutes of the characters standing in place continually telling each other that a collapsing cave is dangerous rather than actually spend any effort in leaving.
