It’s such a shame that Western publishers were so ashamed of games Japanese origins. For me, being a teenager at the time, I wanted anything and everything Japanese I could get my hands on. I felt like this was the case for a lot of people at the time. It’s why anime and manga were exploding in popularity.
Because small phones suck. Every time my parents or my other older family members hand me their old tiny phone, I wonder how the heck they can even use them? Text entry, tapping on things, etc is so damned hard when everything’s so close together and my fingers are so fat.
