SaGa 3: Jikuu no Hasha is the DS remake of Final Fantasy Legend III that never made it across the pond. Does it do our monochromatic memories justice?
It is a great time for fans of Square Enix’s SaGa series! Romancing SaGa 2 was ported to multiple platforms and released worldwide. SaGa: Scarlet Grace was the first new entry in the series in over 11 years when it was released on the PlayStation Vita in Japan in 2016. Basically, it feels like it is experiencing a renaissance. Which means it is a good time to review what makes it so special.
Another fantastic series to add in is the Mana series especially titles like Seiken Densetsu known here as Final Fantasy Adventure, Secret of Mana a legendary Action Rpg, Seiken Densetsu 3 and that's the best known of the mana series

Episode 8 of The Downpour Podcast focuses on two games near and dear to the oprainfall Staff, Fire Emblem: Awakening and Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch. For over two hours, Jonathan and company gush about the games and anime they love, occasionally going on tangents about things like The Legend of Zelda, Monolith’s ‘X’, the next console generation, and more!”
Oprainfall writes: "I’ve spoken at length about this game elsewhere, but when it comes to the subject of time travel, Final Fantasy Legend III, otherwise known as SaGa 3, is what immediately comes to mind. I played through this game again recently in order to better remember the impact it had upon me so long ago, and it succeeded in teleporting me back to the early nineties, when I first got my hands on it. The game’s themes, much less how it handles time travel, have hardly aged effectively compared to games with a similar premise like Chrono Trigger. But Final Fantasy Legend III was the first time I had ever encountered time travel in a video game."
