I was expecting Grandia to be mentioned at any second but yeah, then I read the comment field and understood why.

Still, for a guy who don't really like RPGs, Grandia has given me lots of fun :mrgreen:

Not sure if I'll ever finish it, however. It drags on forever...
CHECKPOINT!

Grandia 1 is terrific.

Great characters, great pacing and interesting and whimsical scenarios. Even the battle system is a lot of fun. Oh, and don't forget the music.


The second game tried too hard to be "bad ass" and copy the dark SquareSoft aesthetic of the time it was made. I wasn't that impressed with X-treme and while I own Grandia 3 it didn't keep my interest long enough to progress very far.

I never finished Grandia 2. I don't even know how far in I got. At least several hours. No idea how long the game is.

Love the vids.  Just watched the Game Cube Episode.  Where in the worlds can I get a Component Cable for my Game cube?

They are not manufactured anymore and are costly. They used components in the cable to aid in the progressive scan video signal, so you cant just build one on the fly. You also need a older GC deck with the correct digital AV port. It is cheaper and best to just buy a old Wii with GC ability and use that instead via component out at this point.

Got mine direct from Nintendo back in 2004 for about $25. Thank god I didn't throw the box away; never dreamed it would become a collector's item.

Yes the Gamecube has digital video that the component cable converts into an analog signal. I don't know if the digital is DVI-spec or not. Knowing Nintendo, probably not.

One of the great things about Super Mario RPG is that it still fun to play as an adult but it doesn't have any scary monsters or adult plot lines so I can play it around my 5 year old. :)  It's funny how that's become a factor these days.

I couldn't watch the whole episode because YT was being a pain. I got through most of it though. Will someone please sell me a reasonably priced copy of Panzer Dragoon Saga? Please? Anyone?

...damn.

Panzer Dragoon Saga looks very neat, I'll end up buying a Saturn + the Japanese copy (and of course a *ahem* backup of the US one) just so I can play it.

Great episode!
