As an aside, I really wish I still had the official strategy guide for this game. I remember it being akin to the excellent Earthbound strategy guide, which is written to be more like a guided tour and companion reading material throughout the game. Great stuff!
Yes, same here on both accounts. Fondly remembered, but it is a lot harder to replay now, given the relatively slow combat. I still like the game, but it's not quite the same. Definitely a nostalgia game.

And it was a fantastic strategy guide. I might still have it somewhere. It was one of those guides you could enjoy reading through even when not playing the game. It was a good era for guides.
