It's apparently
nostalgia week here at That American Sadness - I'm revisiting a number of my old favorites. Nonetheless, I couldn't NOT post this - though very few people will get it. That 16-bit image up there is a screenshot from the little-seen and less-played 1995 Japanese RPG Seiken Densetsu 3, aka Secret of Mana 3 (or 2, depending on how you count. Don't ask, it's weird). Moreover, it's a screenshot of me defeating the Black Rabite, a bonus boss and the single most challenging battle in the game. In short, it's me finally accomplishing everything there is to accomplish in SD3. And yet right after that screen I immediately rebooted the emulator on my phone and started up another game. Why, you ask? That's simple. It's probably my favorite game of all time.
