So far, um… I’m playing a 90’s fantasy anime and it’s wholesome as shit.
Not game related, but how do you get your legs completely on one side of the steering column like that?
Lmao. Some cars have more than your civic
the car in the photo is a Civic
Oh shi… Bros legs are jelly
What a gem, my friend and I played through the first 2 lunar games in university.
I also discovered wild Arms which was pretty good and doesn’t get much attention compared to jrpgs like FF and Suikoden.

Yep, it’ll meet those expectations (and probably not exceed them).
As for being wholesome, well…there is a small part of the game that’s on the pervy side.
Remind me of the pervy part? There’s a chance my hormone riddle brain found it acceptable and not noteworthy and have since forgot.
spoiler
There are bromides (pictures) you can collect of the girls in the game.
Most of them aren’t outright risque (it’s not like The Witcher 1, nor is the context), it’s mostly the concept itself that’s a little out of place.
Name a JRPG that DOESN’T have a horny side.
Like what Lunar does? It’s pretty rare outside of the ecchi/outright eroge subgenres.
I don’t remember Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked being horny, but it’s been a while
I haven’t played through that one, but if the demon “Mara” is in it, then you bet your ass it’s horny lol.
Giant pulsing/dripping cock on wheels.
Well, plus all the other lady demons basically being naked. I believe most SMT games have succubi of sorts, and horniness is like their one known trait.
According to the device reviews, lots of potential problems.
It was $40 secondhand and has a DSlite battery inside it.
I call it my Shitboy. It’s the device I take to work because I don’t care about it that much, but he’s a dependable little guy.
I have seen nothing but people raving about the Miyoo Mini +. Its cheap enough that if you happen to get a dud its no huge loss.
Miyoo Mini +
My mistake, I thought it was this one
That one isn’t bad either, but that price is way too high. A lot of the problems people have with these consoles is using the cheapo SD card that comes with it.
I got it 4 times and all were of good quality on release
The Miyoo Mini Plus? It plays great and I haven’t had a single issue
I can’t answer your question, but I have the RG35XX H arriving in a week, and you may have just inspired the first game to play when I get it. 😊
I actually owned Lunar 1 and 2 back in the day but never got around to playing them.
I like Lunar 1 but I never got into Lunar 2.
@GhiLA Possibly death when playing while driving.
I lost my Miyoo Mini in Greece and want to buy another.
It’s noticeably better than the 35XXsp I got to replace it.
How so? Most of what I’ve read has drawn the opposite conclusion🤷♂️
The buttons on the Miyoo are much better. There are videos on disassembling the SP and putting tape over the buttons to try and fix them.
GarlicOS is much better on the Miyoo compared to SP stock or Muos. It’s a super quick save/power off/boot/restore so when you hit power you are back in your game but because it’s a real power off instead of sleep, you always have power. (Which is why I stopped using my Restroid.)
The SP can do save/restore but it’s slower. The power button is particularly weird. You press power, wait two seconds, light comes on, then it boots.
The only thing the SP has going for it is the form factor.
GarlicOS? Do you mean OnionOS?
I think OnionOS is for the Miyoo Mini, and GarlicOS is for Anbernic devices.
Yeah I get them mixed up.
Thank you for the detailed reply! My bad, I confused this with the Miyoo Flip since the comparison was with the SP. I’d tend to agree that in comparison to anything of a V or H form factor the Anbernic SP is underwhelming 👍
Onion os is a treasure. The devs are awesome.
fun?
A ticket, if caught while driving
One of the better JRPGs ever done.
Follow up Lunar 1+2 with Suikoden 1+2, then Golden Sun 1+2.
(Optional) Phantasy Star 1-4.
After that, you really don’t need to play any other JRPG.
As usual, Star Ocean: Second Story gets overlooked (they did do a great job with the remake though).
You’re also leaving out the entire SMT/Persona series, but I guess it’s not everyone’s cup of tea.
Persona is a sore subject for me because they ruined the original North American localization.
“So when you finish a random encounter, you can gain experience, or harvest souls!”
“Polling says Americans don’t like random encounters.”
“Oh, that’s easy to fix, reduce random encounters 50%”
Which made it so you either couldn’t get enough experience or harvest enough souls. :(
They also removed the Snow Queen quest for some reason:
Breath of Fire 3 is also an excellent, timeless JRPG
Lunar is up there with FF 4 and 6 and Chrono. Likely best 4 retro rpgs that exist.
Excuse ME?
Username checks out
But really, how could you forget Lufia 1&2?
Tales of phantasia is a must play as well.
Chrono Trigger?
And Earthbound.
And mother 3. Dear God, mother 3.
An absolute delight. That’s the very game that got me into RPGs. Until I copped Harmony on PSP my brain focused on nothing but Halo and COD.
A crash if you play that while driving
It’s fine, it’s an automatic.
I think all Civic Si models are manual. Uh oh
That’s my understanding. Op’s playin with fire 😬
Yep, got the spirit of 500 really Monster’d up teenagers under the hood of this baby.
Sometimes I swear I see giant gold rings in front of this car and a counter collecting them.
Friends don’t let friends Lunar and drive.
I bought this game solely based on the full page ad in Playstation magazine. I put my hard earned cash down on a pre-order of the complete edition at “Software, Etc.” at the shopping mall, sight unseen, with FF7 my only frame of reference on JRPGs. Definitely my favorite JRPG from my childhood.
My only regret is selling it, along with a Ghaleon puppet, on eBay a few years back.
Software, Etc
Holy shit, core memory unlocked. I completely forgot that the Gamestop at our local mall was previously “Software, Etc.”
Goddamn.
I regret selling all of my PS1 and PS2 games. Back when the other (standalone) Gamestop in my town growing up was still a “Funco Land,” I found used copies of Tactics Ogre, and Ogre Battle (I think it was a two-disc Special Edition or something?) on PS1 for very cheap, and then sold them on eBay for like $150. I remember thinking I was so clever… Now I wish I had just kept them.
Completely unrelated but I love the Civic Si, what gen is that one?
