    Just got Shiren the Wanderer in the mail today!

    I know this is a jokey topic title, but it's actually true. Gamestop did not carry it, but my workplace's website did. Ordered Saturday with employee discount and free shipping (because I ordered from the store), and it came in the mail today. If this had not been a holiday weekend (President's Day or whatever), I'm sure it would have arrived yesterday. But then I wouldn't have been able to make a serious parody topic. So it all works out for the best.








    Oh, I might play it at some point, too. Maybe even tonight!

        Yeah, I've yet to touch my DS Shiren game. Played Izuna 2 for a bit, and popped in my Spinhog's software pile disc the other night, wanting to play the first Phantasy Star game. It unfortunately was locked until beating some criteria in some other game, so I poked around the disc and found Fatal Labyrinth. Looked at the description, and discovered that it was one of the earliest console roguelikes.


        So I played a bit of that in preparation for Shiren's imminent arrival.


        EDIT: Or was the "Here we go again" in reference to my propensity for parody topic titles?

          Without emoticons and reaction pics I don't even know how to communicate anymore!

                The Wii version is kind of disappointing because it doesn't have the clever online rescue mode but it's overall a better designed game.

                    What makes it better than the DS version?

                      i want to play this game because i know it's like nightmare of druaga and made by the same people. unforgiving difficulty based on random things out of your control.

                      can you level up in this game permanently? some dungeon games dont let you carry your level, certain items or weapons.

                      Shiren is probably similar but better than Chocobos Dungeon for the deep dungeon games on Wii.

                        Easy mode apparently lets you keep your items (maybe level, I forget) when you die. Normal mode is like a normal roguelike...you die, you lose everything.
