It seems alien to me when people talk about all the JRPGs they played when they were younger because I was only ever exposed to command and conquer and FF7 onwards until I discovered this place in 2006. I didn't even know they existed!

i don't think i played any jrpgs until the psx era.  at least if i did i can't remember any!  most of the older ones i've played were roms.

I just randomed picked a rom from that list and JUNGLE WARS 2 looks pretty bitchin'

http://www.mobygames.com/game/snes/jungle-wars-2-kodai-mahou-atimos-no-nazo-/screenshots

it's probably an exact clone of the original Dragon Warrior but i'll imagine it's unreleased Startropics RPG instead

but yeah a monkey joins you and you get to fight toucans with wrenches or something

also I looked up another random game 'Slap Stick' and that's just Robotrek in jap

I didn't really like Robotrek that much, it seems overly short. like you get past the first island and the game is probably half over, then you get into space and it's like 90% over. and I played it post-Earthbound so I expected it to be super-clever but it was usual shitty translation

haha I did actually look up Heracles no Eikou one time, just because it's a refreshing change of setting for an RPG (greek mythology stuff) really this is the perfect setting for an rpg I don't know why just some random jap rpg is set during that time. Maybe something else came out recent but this is the only NES/SNES rpg I can think of unless you count Kid Icarus as an rpg somehow. But I skimmed through the game and the execution of it just seemed like the usual jrpg bs

I've actually always liked the way Japan does a cartoony style (I mean their way of crudely drawing things, notanime - although that screen is kind of half and half)
