I used to play this game with my two little brothers. One took his own life a few years ago and nothing brings me back to my sweet childhood more than listening to this. I remember the fights over who gets to play next, and the joy we felt while beating darksol, and dark dragon. I'm in tears right now listening.

My brothers were watching me, cheering me on, while we were all standing up when I put the final blow to dark dragon's skull. It was awesome :D

What I love about this game and it's sequel, 2 of my all-time favorite games, is the creativity of the characters! Just in the first one we have... Centaurs, and one with a damn Bazooka! Bird-men warriors, Floating Jellyfish, Raccoon in an up-gradable Iron-Man esque suit, a Ninja, a Samurai, a Monk that can fight, a Dragon, a Cyborg, a badass Werewolf, an old man in a little helicopter pod...then there's multiple magic types, I loved upgrading Tao, Anri and Alex as they all specialized in a particular element, Fire, Ice and Lightning. I love Fire emblem as well but it plays it to safe, too conservative by comparison.

did have few issues here and there, some woefully imbalanced units such as Bleu , animation, length, and it being an earlier release, the music was not quite clearly optimized, the tunes themselves are great but they sound too bassy, which is a shame, some minor tweaking and would have sounded as good as Sf2

I play both, the original and the GBA. Let me tell you that the original is more epic even with bad graphics, the gba one is way more childish, no blood in Kains head after breaking the mask, no evil puns on Darksol and the Dark dragon in the original actually gives you nightmares (i'm 24 years olds and that thing still scares me) but the gba one is cute... Yeah, is really cute. Also more easy than the old one. Remember Khris? that dog girl who can use heal and looks really weak, for some reason is one of the only character who don't have a clon with colors swaps, remember her? Just level up Khris and give her all your rings and buy her the best staff in the current town. She can solo ALL the stages, ALL OF THEM. It's stupid, really stupid that a "healer" can 1 v 1 Dark dragon and actually win. Also, her maid outfits makes that more ridiculous, a blondy dog girl with a broom and a blue maid outfits literally destroying a 3 head dragon of doom. I think that her growth rates are bugged or something, it's like playing in easy mode.

Still own my original Genesis and both carts. I modified both carts with larger batteries so my save files wouldn't die. With my current setup they should remain good for like 25 years or something. Assuming the batteries don't decompose or leak! However there's always the chance of a cosmic ray corrupting the SRAM. Also, anyone saying these 2 games suck can go fuck themselves. These are incredible games that I can STILL play 25 years later. I was so young the first time I beat Shining Force II I cried like a baby and actually missed a bunch of stuff that happened, lol. I remember being SO angry and frustrated trying to beat Zeon because I had no idea what strategy was.
