Thread idea: Non-PCE/Turbo GotW?

[esteban]

AGREED: we will all start playing micromachines (NES) tonight.

I think that it would be great, especially for SMS games, if there were enough people with enough time. But I think that if we ever get enough people with enough time for even PC Engine games, the best thing to do next is try another "let's play a RPG" group.

I would love to do that. I have a few PCE RPGs that I've been wanting to play (i.e. Dragon Slayer, Cosmic Fantasy 1) and it would be cool to do it in a group. I read through pretty much all of one of the previous ones where you all did Legend of Xanadu. And while I still really really want to play that game, not sure it would turn out so well, as the last time showed (though I would be pretty up for doing a let's play for that game at some point in time).

Put me on the list for that, I think that's a great idea. Hell even starting with something easier and short like Mysterious Song would be great. I'd replay it again.

I would also enjoy this.  Can we do one for Exile?  We can compare how long we spent grinding! Lol

I will once again suggest Tengai Makyou: Fuun Kabuki Den. I have a complete walkthrough with every item translated and can provide maps of every dungeon.

Legend of Xanadu was probably the worst possible game to do in a group play through, let alone as the first one.

Well as the first one, I agree. But still pretty cool regardless.

I own Kabuki Den! I would be willing to give that a go, especially since you have the walkthrough. I think I had saved that somewhere on my computer right before I bought it and never had time to get to it. That's a good suggestion, I've wanted to play through that.

How long is it?

[pulstar]

I'd be up for a PCE RPG play through thread. I finished Kabuki Den about 12 years ago, if I remember rightly it took something like 20-25 hours, not insanely big. Smaller than Tengai Makyo 2, I'd say.

[esteban]

Hmmm....Kabuki Den....

If I'm ever going to revisit this game, it would be a group play.

[Gredler]

Im on board for aa PCE RPG group play through for sure. I would like to fo other platform GoTWs, but PCE is thr only system I have a everdrive for, so I would have to sit out of any game I don't have, and I dont have a lote more than I have... hahah

[GreatBlueSwirlof99]

How about Shenmue 1/2 for the Dreamcast or/and Lylat Wars for the N64??

[Black Tiger]

Kabukiden is as long as most full length 16-bit JRPGs. Having a guide will make it easier to play straight through, but I'd expect it to be around 30 hours your first time through.

Star Fox could be good, but Shenmue is a bit tiresome to ask to be completed in a week.  I just got it & I plan on taking my sweet time with it.

[BlueBMW]

I vote for anything N64

Well, gang, as much as I appreciate the enthusiasm of the posters so far who want to do something fun with the community, I have to say that it's been over a week, and there hasn't been a lot of response to this. Personally, I think we'll probably be busy enough playing our PCE GOTW.

If someone else wants to organize a non-PCE GOTW, that's totally cool with me. But I think I'll focus on posting the PCE GOTW myself.
