Topic	Best RPG on the N64
The Popo 05/12/18 8:48:18 AM #12:	Red_Frog posted... It always struck me as odd the N64 got so shafted in the RPG department. RPGs excel at reusing assets, you'd think with the limited space on those cartridges it would have been the premiere genre. I was going to say the opposite, that a cartridge-based system hurt RPGs due to the direction they were heading (3D enviromnents/characters, larger worlds, FMVs, highly detailed backgrounds, etc). N64 using cartridges instead of CDs was a main reason for Squaresoft jumping to PlayStation, after all. --- Live action Hungry Hungry Hippos though, now that was a sport. ~Aeon Azuran <cite>The Popo posted [p:901214921] in Best RPG o...
