SNES Terranigma

The third and final chapter of Quintet's Gaia trilogy for the SNES (unless you want to count PSX Grand Stream Saga as the 4th chapter, that is).

Sadly, Enix no longer had an open US branch by the time of this release, thus the game was never ginve an US NTSC release (don't fell bad, we in Europe never got Final Fantasy III, Mario RPG or Chrono Trigger...something that still bugs me even today.), having however made into Europe (in English, German, French and Spanish, no less) and Australia, published by Nintendo themselves.

Again, this takes place on Earth. In fact, its its the tale of the ressurection of the world has we know it (a recurring theme in many Quintet's games).

We play as Ark, a boy that seeks adventure and will is bounf to get some, the more and more the game takes you in. I really don't want to give much away, because if youre reading this and you've never played it, let me just assure the story has a lot of interesting and unexpected twists.

Playing as Ark is also very fun and he is one of the most responsive and versatile characters on any SNES Action Adventure (he always reminds me of Thor from "Story of Thor" on the Megadrive, for some reason).

Hopefully, this will see a future Wii VC release, since so many people in the US missed it the first time. I have seen this cart on eBay reaching small fortunes, wich comes as no surprise, really.

This is the most under-rated game ever. How can people prefer G.T.A. to a classic masterpiece like Terranigma?
