As I said in the other topic, some games have had many years in between sequels like Metroid and several others.

Yes, but honestly can you still see them making another installment of the Legends series? I'm not saying that they won't, didn't they just remake that old Nintendo boxing-type game for the WII a little bit back?

The difference is, Puch-Out has a HUGE fanbase, and is much more popular than MML. It has already been remade a couple of times before the Wii remake, I think...

I do know that it's in the original Animal Crossing. Then again, the MML fanbase has been more on a discover/rediscover basis where many people find the games a long time after their release. I believe MML2 was released at the same time as several Squaresoft game (the summer of adventure campaign, I think) and MML2 was overshadowed and didn't do well. Though people have gone back to find older games and didn't realize how good the MML series was.

Right, but many of squares games seem to have been huge successes, although most of them that I know about are the final fantasies (which is probably one of my favorite series of games as well.) I'm not saying "Capcom does horrible," but it does seem like they release less things in the US than square does. Like if Namco X Capcom had been released for US users, and I'm not talking about the translated port or emulation, I mean for the PS2 in english made and released by them, who's to say it wouldn't spark interest in mml again?

I would like that to be true, but Threads of Fate is one of my favorite Square games, along with Vagrant Story, and they were heavily overlooked. Vagrant Story is gaining some steam though since it's now downloadable.
Threads of Fate.... not so much. I love the game to death and even maxed out my stats WITHOUT a gameshark, and still haven't lost interest in the game.
The primary thing about Final Fantasy games is that they need a good script... and the game doesn't really change much. Put in all the usual spells and a slightly modified turn-based system from the original game and you have a game. Just do what Square always does and make you grind to eternity for some things and you have side quests as well.

Right, but Square doesn't always do that (Well they do make you spend an eternity on some side quests) but as far as the turn based system goes, sometimes it's cool when the change it up. Ever played Dirge of Cerberus? It's a Final Fantasy, yet it's a shooter, and it's an aweswome game. Or Star Ocean 3, which has no turn based system at all, but is still almost (from the gameplay and how it's made) a Final Fantasy. Same with Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2.
I'm not arguing with you, but there are some occasions where they mix it up. By the way, what are Threads of Fate and Vagrant Story for? Are they worth looking up?

They are old PS1 games released near the end of the PS1's days. Each of those games are a gem in their own right, though they are often overlooked. They are both Action-Adventure types of games, though each has something that themselves worth playing. They are pretty short in terms of story, though they have great combat and storylines as well. Threads of Fate is just plain fun, as I never get tired of playing through the game repeatedly. It has a New Game + feature which lets you restart the game with the same statistics as your last playthrough, and the game is hilarious with a strong storyline. Even though the game's pretty short I don't get tired of it. Vagrant Story has BY FAR the most complete and unique battle system out of ANY game out there. As a little bit of a hint, every single enemy has their own loot table, and not a blanket table for X type of enemy like most RPG games have. It's completely free-roaming and a dungeon crawler, but it also had a great story. It's not a comedy like ToF, but in its seriousness, it also has the best graphics compared to any other PS1 game out there as well. Vagrant Story is also incredibly difficult if you don't learn the mechanics of the battle system. Threads of Fate is pretty easy though, and you can tell that both games aimed at different groups of gamers (by age and experience, obviously). As well, both were released at about the same time. (Also, if a game is heavily command-driven and you can take your time between attacks, it's not a turn-based system. If it's a free-action game like Star Ocean, it's not turn-based. Don't mix up random encounters with a turn-based system. A good example of a game that's not turn-based but has random encounters would be Parasite Eve.) VS Review (ignore the music at the beginning as after the first 5 seconds it's not from the game.): (Also they're not taking it too seriously but it's better halfway through.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZXZOibtwloThreads of Fate gameplay (he skips most of the story which is actually a big factor of the game -- it's a comedy game you know): www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9j03IB_Vuk

Indeed Mikey, the things Tron says about Roll on Manda island aren't all lies.

She used insidious techniques, such as distracting Trigger with the promise of pizza, to get him to forget Tron's words of wisdom. Worse yet, she never made good on that promise for pizza.
I bet that's the real reason the Flutter burned. She distracted him with "pizza" to get his weapons from Kattelox and sell them. Data, feeling sorry for Trigger, went to make him a pizza, but Roll couldn't have Trigger being happy, so she sabotaged the oven.
