Title: How gay is the Phantasia box art?
Post by: Ending Walker Tropic on December 28, 2005, 07:06:43 PM


And waht's with this Everybody rating? Is this to say that all Arche's sexual adventures and the swearing has been removed? This could be the weakest thing ever.

Yeah seriously, they just destroyed any chance of sales with that boxart. The only people who will even look at it for long enough to read the title would be 11 year old girls, and then they'll realise its a weird RPG and put it back down.

And yes, the bloody horse has eight legs. Seriously what's going on? Even a picture of the mana tree would be less weak.

This game doesn't have the official Nintendo seal of approval, so nobody should bother anyway.

I dont see the gayness anywhere, not at least compared with every single rpg cover ever made. You people have weird standards for that.

Theres a horse in norse mythology that has eight legs, I think its name is Hagen and was the ride of Thor or Odin.

Who cares? It's a fu*kin' box!!! Isn't the game inside that box what really matters?

Well who the hell cares if the box art sucks or not there are plenty of good games with subpar and/or crappy box arts and did those box arts made you not buy the game......... I think not. Well most RPG's on the GBA get E or E10+ because the most you can do on it is fantasy voilence and alcohol references DUH, FFIV on GBA is E10+ and did that rating stop you from buying the game? geeze.

Have you played the ToP SNES rom? They can do a lot worse than gambling and alcohol.

See that's the thing, it's a hardcore game but it gets this soft, sissy boss that's going to make me feel like a total poof when I buy it.
Title: RE: How gay is the Phantasia box art?
Post by: Infernal Monkey on December 29, 2005, 03:19:01 AM
Well if you look closely at the box, it says '3 Tales of Phantasia', so I think that's pretty good and will perhaps rival a Boy and His Blob Rescue of Princess Blob Slut on Game Boy for longest adventure game ever. 17 minutes! There is a spider on the wall. =(

I think they were trying to capture motion with drawing the horse with more legs.  Its in full stride.  And the cover isn't that bad.  I think its kinda cool.
Title: RE:How gay is the Phantasia box art?
Post by: mantidor on December 29, 2005, 04:00:27 AM
Correction, its name is Sleipnir. Hagen is a warrior mentioned in the Nibelungenlied.

Holy crap you people are whiny.

I'd hate to think what everyone thought of the River City Ransom box art.

As for story changes, that would suck, but given that PG movies these days have lots of sexual innuendo in them, I doubt it will be a big deal.

God forbid you play the game first, the core motto of any Nintendo fan.

you know, i never played the original mega man... i think i see why now.

as for tales, once i found out it was related to tales of symphonia, i was sold. the box could have had pink bunnies on it, and rainbow bright, who could kick laura croft's butt, btw.

if you've only played the snes rom you're in for a tricky surprise when you play this game. all of the swearing and sex stuff is 100% fake.

I'll get this if it ever gets a local release, I mean, I have this;



And that's about thirty times worse than ToP's boxart.

For the first time EVER we are getting Tales of Phantasia legally, and not having to resort to a rom, and so many of you people are complaining.  Not about the game, but about the damn box art.  Didn't your parents ever tell you not to judge a book by its cover, the same goes for a game.
Title: RE: How gay is the Phantasia box art?

I don't think anybody's said anything about the quality of the game, you can judge the cover by its cover.

You all suck, the box art is fine...And the "horse" has eight legs because it has eight legs in the game...

It's not a normal horse, it's a Pegasus...

The only disappointing thing is that the game isn't T like I expected it to be...But hopefully that doesn't mean that all the innuendo hasn't been cut completely...(PLEASE have the game translated by NOA)

Considering this is one of the worst RPGs on SNES made worst on GBA, it doesn't bother me that this game won't sell. I'll just add another goofy boxart to the goofy boxart collection.

That's not what I was ranting about.  The game is rated "E" according to the picture, so people bitch because it's not rated "T" so it must not be like the rom, which surprise is not an official translation.  

If all you people who are bitching about the probably loss of the sexual innuendo and stuff,  find that that is more important than the game itself, then you shouldn't be playing games at all, you should spend your time looking at porn on the internet instead, as it is obvious that you will enjoy that more, because it won't be rated below your expectations.
Title: RE: How gay is the Phantasia box art?
Post by: MaleficentOgre on December 30, 2005, 10:32:46 AM
In the original game there are NO innuendos at all.  Hate to break it to you like this but its a very clean and wholesome game.  The only sexual references are ones that were implied by the player.  You're not losing sexual innuendos if they're not in this version because they were never there to begin with. Phantasia is a great game and one of the best rpgs on snes and the story is just fine by itself.  I'll be sad if you guys don't enjoy it because of jokes you expect to be there because of some fan translation and jokes that weren't really that funny to begin with.

Will this version include the hot spring scenes that were in the PSX version?
Maybe I'm mistaking that for the scenes from the OVA mini-series.
Title: RE:How gay is the Phantasia box art?
Post by: kirby_killer_dedede on December 30, 2005, 01:59:26 PM
Or maybe it's because you guys are stupid and the original game would have been rated E10 had the rating existed then.

It's only 95% homosexual, for 100% that horse would have to be a unicorn riding on a rainbow.

Well, 8 legs is still 4 more than any horse (unicorn or pegasus) should have, but I'll take your word for it.
Maybe the horse is running. . .

Isn't an 8-legged horse part of Norse mythology? Sleipner or something? Odin's ride?

...or is everything I read about in the Thor comics wrong?

I swear everybody Bi#@#ing about the box art should look at Atari games.  If it was up to people like you, atari would have never started up, and of course the following onslaught of other companies.

Seriously if you have never played the original you should shut your mouth.  If you've played the original and hated fine, you have all the right to not like it.

The only complaint i have is that the character sprites have been changed, and i rather don't like the new look.  I don't know if there are pics of it online but Nintendo Power has some.

By the way Final Fantasy I & II GBA artwork $ucked too right?.........  Was that game any good......Naw it must've $ucked B@lls.

So i dunno about you guys but, i feel this game being officially brought over to america as a previllage to own.
