I love FaXanadu, am I correct in saying I prefer the more dark, twisted, edgy vibe of Xanadu to Falcom’s other standard offerings like Ys and Heroes? I know I love Brandish for that reason.
Great pick!
don’t forget to mention that this game is also available for the N-Gage, which is how I will be playing it, as god intended.
just kidding! (edit: ope, exodus has it on n-gage. figures lmao)
A switch port would be cool thought wouldn’t it?
since we’re naming falcom games we’ve played… I’ve played a lot of them but here’s my faves & the ones I’ve sat down and played extensively, for hours:
- Brandish SNES (all time fave)
- Dragon Slayer IV - the Drasle Family (legacy of the wizard) NES
- FaXanadu (FaMily computeR)
- Popful Mail SEGA CD
I’ve picked up the original Ys multiple times across all the retro platforms but never got much further than the first couple dungeons.
I think the only modern Ys stuff I’ve ever touched was the PSP remake of Ys and the PSP remake of Brandish.
This is what I’m going to try to use, the retro-bit saturn pad. I’d be interested to see if this game has rumble support with more standard controllers like 8bitdo.
