Maybe the pleasure of playing fire emblem on OG hardware is overwriting the pain of chapter 3 lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yexin Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 (edited) great purchase! incidentally, i also bought a physical copy of Mystery in the last months, along with the Official Guidebook, for a total of 40€ (around 44$) they both were in very good conditions, and the guidebook is really lovely, it contains hand drawings for every map, with arrows suggesting the best moves and everything you might need (i have no intention of reading it before i have finished the game) there's also a really cool list of all the weapons contained in the game in the guidebook's last pages one day i'll actually play Mystery, i just have to find some free time anyway, have fun!

Enjoy your monumental trophy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulWeaver Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 That don't look like Super Metroid. Nice, I still need to try playing that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jotari Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Am I allowed to brag about living in Japan? There's tonnes of shops selling old games dotted around the place. I could pick it up for practically nothing, you know, if I wanted to. Baka. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I'm unemployed right now due to the whole Corona virus thing. I'm just here to live with my girlfriend for a while. I am a tefl teacher by trade though. And I should be teaching online but the company am with seems have done a mass over hiring because they haven't given me any lessons yet.

I've wondered how those tefl jobs/programs have been affected by COVID, and unsurprisingly, it sounds rough. Probably it's nice to at least be with someone though, and to be chillin in Japan. I remember being stunned by the scenery all the time. Edited May 27, 2020 by Solvaij Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
