Pretty much everything in EarthBound

The ability to see enemies on the map, the ability to approach enemies from different directions, the ability to win fights automatically based on your strength and your advantage in battle, rolling HP, on and on and on

Damn

Now I want to play EarthBound again

You know, I own the SNES cart, I have the cool scratch and sniff stickers, I have the strategy guide, etc...

You know what I don't have? The experience of playing this game through.

 

I seriously need to put aside some time and finally get around to playing through that game.
