What is your favorite general store in an RPG?

Beedle's Air Shop in Skyward Sword.

I just loved the fact that you had to chase it round Skyloft and hit it with a slingshot so you can climb up. It's one of those things that I thought would get annoying eventually but it never did!

Beedle is a weird guy.

It was the exact opposite of his boat service in Wind Waker. That one made sense since everyone had to travel by boat or lived on an island. But Skyward Sword Beedle? Dude didn't want business, I guess! I suppose you could make the argument that people could use the birds to get to his shop, but that's an awfully small needle to thread without Link's equipment.

In other news, I have thought about this too much, and I have been up for too long.

Don't forget that if you don't buy anything, he just dumps you right out over the open sky. Most shopkeepers don't try to kill window shoppers.

Although, Beedle's Shop Ship does have those skulls on it...

The Pawn shop from Lufia 2 that only sells the items you have sold. Such a clever idea.

That sounds kind of troutty. That would piss me off too. Why would you think I would want to buy the thing I just sold you?

Obviously Taloon's shop in DQ4.

There are several shops like that in Rune Factory. However, once you've sold an item, they can carry an unlimited number of that item. It's expensive, but you can use it to great effect to collect rare resources for making higher level gear or farm tools.
