@repeatro and the HD release of FF X for the Vita is ultimately how I finished it, even though I bought it for PS2 when it originally came out. 😅
I never could get to terms with the weirdness of X-2 though.

Sony put out the Premium Series Doko Demo Issyo SCPH-10020 KA white memory card for the PlayStation 2 on November 27, 2003.

Unfortunately, the Doko Demo Issyo website on the packaging from 21 years ago no longer works. 🤣

But you still get that 8 megabytes of sheer memory power, baby

The Premium Series Doko Demo Issyo SCPH/-10020 KA White memory card for the PlayStation 2 in package. Cool packaging with some of the other characters.

The series is still sitting in my backlog. 😅

Released in 2000 exclusively in Japan, this comprehensive "World Guidance" art book covers everything you'd want to know about 📚

I have Grandia III on my PS3 as a digital download (9.99). It's pretty good. Has a lot of unique ideas.

@trabex Is it a series that I should start with the first entry?

Some games can be played from an USB drive, but there are plenty that will have problems. Some won't even start up it crashes immediately, others have problems with the FMV (full-motion video) playback being to choppy ruining the experience of playing the games in the first place.
Yeah PS2 games can get really big especially if there were release as multi disc games and even some of the single disc games can go as high as 8GB, like for example Yakuza 2.

@light haha true. I mostly wanted to play dumb crap like the Futurama game 🤣😂 the USA version is super pricey.

I think for me it would have to be 4! As that’s close to my childhood but I always wanted an N64 so maybe I should pick that! Which would you pick!?

@MURRRAAAAY Of these I guess the NES (# 4.) However, my father was into computers a long time and had some old classics such as the TI-99/A. It's possible that before I was old enough to even remember things I actually used a controller akin to # 1.

I really have to say that even if you're into mobile gaming, the phone itself just can't be called a controller. I strongly disagree with 16. Also, not sure why "The Duke" was selected for 11. Many Xbox (1) users never saw it.

@MURRRAAAAY 4 I was an NES kid technically I started with 15 but I was so little I remember basically nothing of that system

Which one of these classics would you want as a mini console!? Truly One Of The Best Gaming Generations of all time 💜💙💚🧡

@MURRRAAAAY Am I the only one who hates these "mini consoles" where they take the equivalent of a Raspberry Pi, cram it into a too tiny case, throw in a crappy controller, and charge 2x as much as buying an actual RPi + good controller? It particularly bugs me because one RPi could do all the things that each of these "mini consoles" individually do without all the limitations they have like games they couldn't license (or didn't think to.)

Sorry.

Anyway, they probably can't go this high yet

@NO_PULSE_XBL @MURRRAAAAY That's part of my problem. It's actually not even a legal way to get many that it should be. Well, just for example, one great NES game I grew up with was "Faxanadu." Loved it to death. See it on the NES console? Switch NES Online? No. And you never will. No one remembers it existed.
