Okay, so I'm a big JRPG fan, I have most of the better JRPGs from the last 3 generations, and basically all the great JRPG's on handhelds (at least the ones I like).

I've been thinking about getting into the Shining Force Series. However, I'm the type of guy that likes to go all in (get every game of the franchise), and I don't have a Sega Saturn. I don't mind missing the games on that one console, but regardless...

Is this a quality JRPG franchise worth getting into? or should I look somewhere else/stick to what I have?

I'm pretty backlogged on JRPG's as it is. I have yet to beat a single Dragon Quest game (but I've played them all a bit), I haven't beaten any Final Fantasy between 3-9 (but I'm 60% done FFVII), and haven't beaten most of my PS1/PS2/Dreamcast JRPG's (XenoGears, Chrono Cross, Skies of Arcadia, Grandia 1-3, Drakengard 2, Shadow Hearts, Various Tales of Games, etc).

Yea, I think I answered my own questions, but should I still consider this series? I love Fire Emblem and FF Tactics. I also really love Camalot Software (makers of Shining Force and Golden Sun).
