who /popful/ here?
More than half of /vr/, it seems. This game kicks ass.
What's the best version?

MegaCD
I don't find this game fun to play.
>>3765963
the english version has the difficulty amped up, you do less damage, and enemies do more
Not enough fan art or lewd things.
It was a simpler time.
Am I popful?

Also the I-frames are much shorter in the English version.

Egomaniacal hack artist who got lucky with a few genuinely great games that are still good even after his senseless butchering.

I haven't touched Popful Mail, but judging by how WD handled Exile, I have a feeling Popful Mail will have busted difficulty.
Remember when /vr/ actually got together to translate a pretty nice Popful Mail doujin?
Good times.

You're right!
But someone made a patch to revert the "balance" changes.

that's pretty much the best thread this board ever had
>>3765140
not anymore
i sold my copy back in 2008, really wish i didn't.
i was in that "im done with X games" period and sold a TON of nice shit that was, at the time, still cheap as fuck.

It's perfectly beatable you fucking pussy

what about the search for chu teng?
>>3765140
Funny how this is exactly the same premise for one of the Slayers OVA episodes.

SFC.

Don't be afraid to save scum on the English version. I think I ended up saving at most room entrances and reset if I took too much damage. The game lets you save anywhere except boss fights, so I see it as a fair way to balance the difficulty change.

What is she stuffing that breastplate with?
>>3766952
The thumbnail looks like she has a diaper on ;)
>>3768402
Dragon Slaves.
Be real with me, is this a genuinely good game or is it just an okay game with titties like Shantae?
>>3768478
It is a lot like Shantae is every aspect. And its still good.

Got a link? It's not on romhacking.net
>>3768402
Despite all the jokes, Lina Inverse really wasn't flat at all.
>>3768913
The joke is that she's flat compared to every other female in the Slayers universe that isn't a child.
>>3768605
For whatever reason, it's in the forums but not officially in the list.

As far as gameplay goes it's a very average platformer. It was also one of the first games with anime-style cut scenes and voice acting that was ever released for the American console market and is fondly remembered by many people who are into that aesthetic.
