Epic Fail at not knowing Glenn from Chrono Trigger.  I mean, it was only THE BEST CONSOLE GAME OF ALL TIME.  No worries. :)

Best console game of all time was General Chaos on the Sega Genesis. Or Mutant League Football.

I have ruled on this matter. Case closed. Baliffs! Send Cal to the guillotine.
Overruled.  Chronotrigger was awesome back in the mid-90s.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

I thought it might be a Wind in the Willows reboot.

:rolleyes: I've never watched a single anime movie.  Except Appleseed.

I remember it.  I didn't recall the character's name.  Back then, the graphics weren't advanced enough to really look like anime.  It was one of the great RPGs for the SNES.  What I remember about that one was it had multiple endings, which was rare for console game.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

That was a big benefit to games back then. I think if the tech had been better, the games would have bled more of the creators' aesthetic into them and people wouldn't have liked them as much. Look at Final Fantasy 12.  :yuk:

I'd rather not look at that.  The SNES was the last console I owned.  My little Bro had a N-64 and a Play Station which I occasionally played, but I moved over to PC gaming and never looked back.  I had almost no knowledge of Anime at the time.  I just knew that Speed Racer sucked, and once I saw an anime late at night which was really weird and after the cartoon sex my dad didn't think appropriate for me to watch.   Something about vampires and a guy who talks to his hand.  It did not leave a good impression.
