This was announced at least a day ago and I can’t seem to find a 100-page thread about it, so the only logical conclusion is that no one here has played the original Shiren the Wanderer. It’s probably my favourite SNES game ever and although it only came out in Japan, there’s a great fan translation and a DS port that might be getting a US release. I was going to write a big block of text about what the game is like and why I love it so much (I even took a bunch of screenshots) but unfortunately I’m terrible at writing, so I’ll just link to some other articles about it:
