So far, um... I'm playing a 90's fantasy anime and it's wholesome as shit.

I bought this game solely based on the full page ad in Playstation magazine. I put my hard earned cash down on a pre-order of the complete edition at "Software, Etc." at the shopping mall, sight unseen, with FF7 my only frame of reference on JRPGs. Definitely my favorite JRPG from my childhood.

My only regret is selling it, along with a Ghaleon puppet, on eBay a few years back.

Software, Etc

Holy shit, core memory unlocked. I completely forgot that the Gamestop at our local mall was previously "Software, Etc."

Goddamn.

I regret selling all of my PS1 and PS2 games. Back when the other (standalone) Gamestop in my town growing up was still a "Funco Land," I found used copies of Tactics Ogre, and Ogre Battle (I think it was a two-disc Special Edition or something?) on PS1 for very cheap, and then sold them on eBay for like $150. I remember thinking I was so clever... Now I wish I had just kept them.
