Haha, I wish you posted some different art from the game to showcase PSII off.
I was never too crazy about II, but I’m very happy to see it up on the VC, I’ll be the first in line for PSIV when it hits though.

I would have preferred they release Phantasy Star 1 first, since they announced SMS games are coming to VC. PS1 is one of my favorite games ever. I own it on the Master System and on the GBA collection, and I’d buy it again on VC.
PSII I own twice as well, and I probably won’t be buying it again. But I am looking forward to PSIV being released, since I only own it once.

Same here Neal, in terms of PSII. I have this on the PC(SEGA Smash Pack) and on GBA(Phantasy Star Collection).
