Quote:During the tail-end of the SNES' life in Japan, there were a number of Japanese RPGs which weren't picked up for localization for one reason or another. Some games, such as Star Ocean, were due to the complex and pricey cartridge add-ons that were required to play the game, while others were passed on simply because the market at the time could not sustain new franchises with the next-gen systems approaching soon on the horizon. One of my favorites, Seiken Densetsu 3 (which would have been known as Secret of Mana 2 internationally), was one of the games affected by these circumstances.

Oh man. I feel warm with nostalgia just reading this piece. SD3 was the first game that I ever imported and it was truly worth the hassle.

Amg, this is like my favourite game ever. I've played it over thirty times, trying out all the different character combinations and class combinations within those character combinations. My favourite trio was always Hawkeye, Reisz, and Angela -- one of the weakest, but I just loved how they played off each other.

It's been a lonnnng time since I last played it, but damn, I loved this game crazy-like.
