Thread: Portable rpg's

  1. #1

    Default Portable rpg's

    I'm looking for some suggestions on some good rpg that are not FF related. I want them for psp, ds or gba. I thought about some of the Dragonquest/warrior games but would like some suggestions.

    The Disgaea 1 & 2 ports for PSP are awesome if you are into SRPGs. Jean D'Arc is also a great SRPG for the PSP. I highly recommend both.

    Other than that my portable RPG collection is all FF related. (You could go for Chrono Trigger DS, but you probably already knew about that)

    The DS has a port of the first Disgaea as well, if it means anything.

    Anyway, you have lots and lots of options, especially with the DS. My personal suggestion would be for Etrian Odyssey, but there's also a few Dragon Quest games and The World Ends With You and so on as well.

    This. So much.

    Also, Shiren the Wanderer is worth looking into if you want something likely different than anything you've played.

    I don't actually know. It has a story, you're playing a role, it's a game... It doesn't REALLY matter. It just needs to be played.

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    Metal Gear Solid are always fun, although I'm not sure if they are RPG's.
    But I would definitely suggest Phantasy Star Portable, brilliant game and you can play every and any mission with mates that also have the game. And in late September, PS Portable 2 comes out and you can transfer your character to get bonus items.

    Dragon Quest IV is great... like really great. But DQ isn't everyone's cup of tea so I wouldn't blame you if it doesn't do it for you.

    The Mario & Luigi games are very good, too, you should absolutely check them out if you haven't already.

    Valkyria Chronicles 2 should be coming out in US on PSP sometime this summer, that's one to watch for!!!

    If you don't mind a blatant rip off of FFTA then go for Onimusha Tactics for GBA games, it's actually quite fun. Also Front Mission is available for the DS, Pokemon heart gold/soul silver = generic DS rpg. Breath of Fire is also on the GBA.

    Highly recommended. Good story, great battle system, quirky, funny and cute.
