"Suikoden Tierkreis marks the debut of Konami's long-running RPG series Suikoden onto the Nintendo DS. Some elements get left behind in the scaling down to its tiny, dual screens, but enough of the game remains to make it worthwhile for fans of the franchise to explore. Think of it as a diet version of Suikoden, calorie-free but still delicious-tasting."
There’s no denying that the Nintendo DS was a very beefy little fella in its day. The handheld would even see a ton of epic, sprawling RPGs.
Whenever people talk about RPG series they would like to see make a comeback, Suikoden is often among the titles named. This Konami turn-based series is known for its massive character rosters, underdog stories where a newly form army challenges and triumphs against an established, opposing force and overarching storylines and concepts. It might be a little daunting, attempting to determine how to get into such a series. Well, [Michibiku is] here to help [readers] get into Suikoden!
It is one of the best JRPG's released in Ps1/Ps2 era and needs a revival or an HD collection. Super cheap when it's on sale, can play it on ps3, psvita. It has an amazing story and great gameplay.
The greatest 2D RPG series on the PS1. While Suikoden II has the best overall story, I'd put Suikoden V as second best in the series. Also for the love of all that is good and holy, skip Suikoden IV. Its almost unplayable. I'd rank the series as follows:
Suikoden II > Suikoden V > Suikoden > Suikoden III > Suikoden Tactics > Suikoden Tierkreis > eating a steaming pile of dog shit > Suikoden IV

First pic was PNG format so I changed it, but it got croped wrong. Anyone have any tips?
This game looks good. Wish I still had a DS. Might have to get one for GTA Chinatown Wars at some point...
