The Top JRPGs of My CHILDHOOD!

[@DavidCastJRPGs]

Your segment about Dragon Ball Legacy of Goku made me remember a similar game for me.. A ''very mid'' turn-based rpg from an anime that I liked so much as a child and that game is Naruto Path of Ninja on Nintendo DS! Not a terrible game, but when I went back and played it again a few years ago, I struggled to find enjoyment while playing lol

[@BaoZakeruga]

I never even knew Naruto had a turn-based rpg until now. Shame it isn't that great since I would actually wanna try a good one.

[@DavidCastJRPGs]

@@BaoZakeruga Its an ok game! The sequel is a little better if you ever feel curious and want to check it out!

[@BaoZakeruga]

@@DavidCastJRPGs will definitely keep it in mind and check it out.

[@acebreaker7]

Yoooo DBZ legacy of goku was my intro to dragonball overall specifically Legacy 2, Also didn't know digimon world 2 was a dungeon crawler gonna add that to my list

[@BaoZakeruga]

that's one hell of an introduction to dbz lol. And some aspects of World 2 may not have aged great but it's still most definitely worth trying out.

[@buckbumble-e3h]

Some of them aren’t RPG’s, but games that I really loved to play as a child include: Billy Hatcher & The Giant Egg, Lufia Returns, Sonic Battle, Tales of Legendia (my introduction to Tales), and Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga.

[@BaoZakeruga]

I wish I had gotten into the Mario & Luigi rpgs when I was younger. I know how beloved they are.

[@darklordyianni4463]

RPGs for life!

[@H2DK]

The pizza hut demo disks!!!! Yessssss

[@BaoZakeruga]

Glad I'm not the only one that remembers😁

[@H2DK]

@@BaoZakeruga getting that disk was like finding gold, was such a hyped feeling. Also, the old school pizza hut buffet like that life was 🔥.

I honestly believe Symphonia singlehandedly made the 1st big wave of Western Tales fans. GC's library for RPGs wasn't exactly huge, but they had some banger entries Falsebound kicked little me's ass so bad I never touched that game again. Maybe it's time to get my revenge after I finish my gen 3 dex completion with Colosseum/XD

[@BaoZakeruga]

The GameCube really is an underrated rpg machine. And you should give Falsebound Kingdom another try! I feel once you get over that initial difficulty hump it hooks you

[@DuoBeard]

Final Fantasy VIII WOOT! An OST that just brings me back to such a nostalgic state of happiness is the “Breath of Fire III” soundtrack. It just captures a lot of my childhood A few from my childhood that are solely my own, Secret of Evermore, Out of This World, and Faxanadu Lastly, nailed another thumbnail Bao!

[@BaoZakeruga]

Thank you Duo. Was actually just talking to friends about me trying a breath of fire game finally. Some say to start with 1. Others say to jump straight to 3.

[@DuoBeard]

@@BaoZakeruga that call is on you, I personally would start with 1 since the whole series isn’t very long

[@worldofcorn]

MegaMan Command Mission and Phantasy Star Online C.A.R.D was probably my fav RPG of all time growing up and also can't forget Golden Sun I would love to see that game get remade we had so many gems of RPGs back in the day this year is starting to feel like a good year for J/RPGs

[@BaoZakeruga]

These next 2 weeks in particular are gonna be crazy for jrpgs

[@worldofcorn]

@@BaoZakeruga yes exactly I just a brought a few that will be part of my run of JRPGs for the switch and PS4...biggest game for me is Digimon Survive getting two copies for PS4 and switch, so I've been playing Digimon World Next Order to get hype

[@BaoZakeruga]

@@worldofcorn nice! I've been watching digimon anime and playing a couple of the games as well to get ready. I'm so excited for Survive.

[@worldofcorn]

@@BaoZakeruga Same here and with I definitely glad Ive played so many Tactical RPGs (SRW) must say I'm really prepared to play hopefully make the right choices lol

[@BaoZakeruga]

@@worldofcorn I usually go chaos routes in games like this and it likely won't change here for me lol

Dude, I'm digging this video a lot! You have an excellent voice for videos and well thought-out segments! I'm looking forward to seeing more from you! Minor criticism, though. Don't take this as mean-spirited, I genuinely want to see you grow and flourish (so much so that I'm subbing as we speak). Do make a point of annunciating a little more carefully, there were some points in the video where I was having a hard time understanding. Other than that rather minor detail, I love the thought-provoking subject of the video. I'm very much looking forward to more JRPG content!

[@BaoZakeruga]

Thank you for the feedback. And I hope you continue to enjoy the videos

[@xxnike0629xx]

I had a PS1, PS2 & PSP, PS3 & PS Vita... and now I just have a PS4. I have yet to get a PS5. Final Fantasy VII (PS1) was my first 'real' JRPG. Good times. Final Fantasy VIII was and is amazing. I never got really into the Tales series. I did play Tales of Abyss on the PS2. I have Zesteria, Berseria, and Vesperia for PS4, but they're in my backlog. I never got into the Battle Network games since I never had Nintendo systems. I'm getting the Legacy Collection version on PS4 when it comes out. I never got into Pokémon either since (again) I never had a Nintendo. I do remember back then, my friends had Pokémon Red & Blue and I remember watching them play during recess.

[@ffxiikd1426]

Lovely video 😄 for me i started with FFVII, FFVIII, Xenogears, Wild Arms 1 & 2, Breath of fire IV, Suikoden 2 from that time i never stopped playing jrpg games until this day. In top of my list SMT Strange Journey Tactics Ogre let us cling together FFXII Xenogears Persona series SMT series Xenosaga and Xenoblade series Nier / Drakengard series Skies of Arcadia Ys series Valkyria chronicles 1&3 most of the time i find my self back to Atlus games.

[@BaoZakeruga]

Wow those are some amazing games to be introduced to rpgs with

[@cozykomala]

I've never heard of that yu-gi-oh game before.

[@yes06kinTrue4]

I'm sad that I never got the chance to play Baiten Kaitos when I was younger, for some reason I couldn't find it when I was young ;_; I want to find some time for it but not sure if I can with all tthe good games coming out the next couple months. and for some reason, the Yugioh games all have banger soundtracks, haven't played one that had a bad OST yet.

[@BaoZakeruga]

Yeah between Live A Live, Digimon Survive, and Xeboblade 3, I'm gonna be busy for a while.

[@Lpgardian]

Loving that you too loved the false bound kingdom but such a shame you didn't play the sequels for legacy of Goku. You need to fix this -_-

[@BaoZakeruga]

Maybe one day lol

[@russellarcher5181]

I do forget I am, a lot, older than you; so for me it's odd hearing what ppl played as their first jRPG, or that FF8 was their first one! While I was in college, my boyfriend sold MY gamecube: along with _Falsebound Kingdom, Lost Kingdoms and Dinosaur Planet,_ before I finished them. I was in Public School, and we were making fun of Final Fantasy for skipping to 6, & FFX going to FFX-2. Let's see: *Phantasy Star 2* _Genesis_ *Breath of Fire II* _friend's SNES_ *Sonic the Hedgehog 1, X-Men/X-Men 2, Earthworm Jim, Disney's Aladdin* _Genesis_ _Fun Fact:_ first Final Fantasy game was 8, borrowed someone's PS2 to play; first Dragonball game was *Legacy of Goku II* for the GBA
