Yes, but not the original

Was there supposed to be a hint in the poem about which one then? Because I sure missed it.

The hint was Crazy for the 1st time, Crazy hand's debut. Though I guess 'for the first time' could be seen as the original :p

Peace is faltering
The hidden mastermind
seeks for complete destruction
Dragons caught in between

I'm gonna go out on a Limb and say Radiant Dawn even though I don't think it is

Correct series, wrong game

#48
A simple premise of setting and activating
Trapping your opponents in a trail of fire
This definitely overshadows the story
I guess even the 2nd time isn't enough
For anyone to bother to Touch this mode

#49
Who thought throwing people on a platform
where they fight to push people off,
in a last man standing game
is a good idea? Sounds Crazy for the first time.

47 is Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance 

48 is eitehr Bomberman Touch or Bomberman Land Touch

49 is Super Smash Bros Melee.

47: Correct series, wrong game

and correct for 48, and 49, though it's Bomberman Land Touch 2 (with the hint as 2nd time)

#46 is a popular indie game that recently got a sequel.

Literally could be anything. Um, Limbo?

Recently as in less than 2 months ago recent.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

#46. A game compilation of bite-sized adventures, that only get even more intense. This enhanced version will have you fight your long nemesis with some badass music, and people who say this game is "too kiddy and easy" probably couldn't last 10 seconds in the game's endgame bosh rush.

Also pretty ample. There's many things I wanna guess but am not sure about, so let's just go with something I never played and have no idea whether it actually fits the description or not... Kirby Super Star Ultra?

Edit: oh and also, I could hint my next couple of games I guess... or, Edit²: I could do that in another post so people would read it. Never mind.

It was meant to be a simple hint, but yeah.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

#46 - The only game in this long-standing series to feature a female main villain. It also wasn't mainly developed by the company that created, and owns, this franchise.

#45 - Although this game has two alternate dimensions, its main world-shifting gimmick is related to something else that only affects one of these two realities.

46: Oracle of Ages

45: Oracle of Seasons

Wolfenstein 3D

  • Mac OS
  • 1994
  • First-person Shooter
  • id Software

One of the oldest first-person shooters in existence, and the second one I ever personally played. 'Wolfenstein 3D' played a large role in my lifetime interest in the second World War, but obviously also in my interest in this genre of video games. Even at a young age, I was allowed to play a game dripping in controversial imagery, but I'm glad I could.

The plot of the main game, which is divided into three parts, involves a soldier, the player, trying the break out of his prison at Castle Wolfenstein. Afterwards the player would carry out a mission to stop the Nazi plans to create a mutant army, culminating into the infiltration of Hitler's bunker where the player faces the famous robotic Hitler as final boss. Later on, expansion packs were released with additional missions, mostly serving as prequels.

Since this game has a high nostalgic value and has had a great impact on me personally, I revisit the game every once in a while. Still I didn't actually beat it all the way through, but I have made it to Hitler when only playing the final chapter once, strangely an epic moment in my gaming life.

Well this'll be an elaborate hint.

#46
There's quite the uproar going on right now against the publisher of a new game in this huge franchise that's about to release. These games used to be made by their own special developer and publisher though, and things were better. In this older game, an on-rails shooter, you play as a rookie in various perspectives; shooting or flying in both first-person and third person.

a Fire emblem game about a dragon, with a hidden mastermind.... and war.... I wonder which that could be :|. I mean there are so many but I'll just say its not the original game because shadow dragon sucks.... I haven't played fates so I can't say....... I don't feel like the mastermind was hidden in echoes..... hmm.... and it was pretty obvious in awakening...... jesus.... which game.... wait.

Fire Emblem the one with Lyn/ eliwood maybe?

Star Wars Rebel Assault?

And yes, with independent LucasArts things were better.

That's got to be Star Wars... right?

Given the rest of the hint... Rogue Squadron?

Almost.

Rebel Assault?

Very good.

The second one, but that doesn't become clear from the hint.

A classic and very important. The predecessor to the very influential Doom. These games id Soft made back then defined the First Person Shooter genre and I just have to assume things would've developed differently without id and Wolfenstein+Doom+Quake.
