It's that time of the decade, when new console rumors begin to swirl, and you can bet that RFN is all over that red meat. First, though, we've got New Business impressions of Okamiden, Last Resort (on Japan's Virtual Console), a Magus-filled update on Jon's Chrono Trigger progress, a fresh perspective on Radiant Historia, Telltale's Puzzle Agent, the HD remake of Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes, and James's first peek at Phantom Brave. Then, we finally break ground on all the Wii price drop and successor rumors!
After an epic first segment, we jump directly into RetroActive #17 with our discussion of Konami's early SNES game, Legend of the Mystical Ninja. It proves to be a fertile topic, as a deeply flawed mixture of action and adventure that nevertheless displays numerous flashes of innovation. We get into the cultural impact, pacing issues, comparisons to the first-ever RetroActive selection, and a handful of listener comments from the still-open forum thread. Stay tuned for the next RetroActive poll, coming soon!

Probably the best way to get a shout out on the show is to send a thought provoking/discussion inducing question to rfn@nintendoworldreport.com.

Ok I'm also going to finish chrono trigger. I can't let captain never finishes a game beat me.Oh Captian My Captian.
I have not, although I'm aware of its place in the Nippon Ichi's history. From what I can deduce their games have become increasingly befuddling. I'm going to speak about this a bit when we record tomorrow, but Phantom Brave is can be a very sadistic game.I've always thought anything Nippon Ichi has produced has the potential to transcend to very Sadistic.
Captain? Only a captain? I've earned better stripes than that man!Fine then.
... I've information vegetable, animal, and mineral, I know the kings of England, and I quote the fights historical From Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical; I'm very well acquainted, too, with matters mathematical, I understand equations, both the simple and quadratical, About binomial theorem I'm teeming with a lot o' news, With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse. I'm very good at integral and differential calculus; I know the scientific names of beings animalculous: In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral ... I know our mythic history, King Arthur's and Sir Caradoc's; I answer hard acrostics, I've a pretty taste for paradox, I quote in elegiacs all the crimes of Heliogabalus, In conics I can floor peculiarities parabolous; I can tell undoubted Raphaels from Gerard Dows and Zoffanies, I know the croaking chorus from The Frogs of Aristophanes! Then I can hum a fugue of which I've heard the music's din afore, And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense Pinafore. Then I can write a washing bill in Babylonic cuneiform, And tell you ev'ry detail of Caractacus's uniform: In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral, I am the very model of a modern Major-General. In fact, when I know what is meant by "mamelon" and "ravelin", When I can tell at sight a Mauser rifle from a Javelin, When such affairs as sorties and surprises I'm more wary at, And when I know precisely what is meant by "commissariat", When I have learnt what progress has been made in modern gunnery, When I know more of tactics than a novice in a nunnery— In short, when I've a smattering of elemental strategy— ... For my military knowledge, though I'm plucky and adventury, Has only been brought down to the beginning of the century; But still, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral...[/qoute]Then you can match that level of knowledge you can be a Modern Major General
