Time Travelers

Time Travelers Title Screen

Time Travelers featured a somewhat more interactive element called “Playing Cinema Events”. It turns out that this is just a fancy name for Quick Time Events!

Dragon Quest

Despite all of the genuine care that went into trying to make Dragon Quest successful in the US, it just did not sell as a $50 game. There were so many unsold copies that Nintendo eventually gave it away free with new $20 subscriptions to Nintendo power, further sweetening the deal with a strategy guide that contained a full walk-through and additional back story.

Metroid: Zero Mission

Everything else about this game, from the visuals to the sound design, is a complete Super Metroid-ification of the original, and that’s not a bad thing. Super Metroid oozed atmosphere, and that same feeling comes through in Zero Mission.

Gundam Musou International

Gundam Musou Title Screen

This version is essentially identical to the original Playstation 3 version in terms of how it looks, plays and sounds…However since it was released after the English localization was done, it includes the option to toggle between the original Japanese voices and the English ones.

I would strongly urge Gundam fans who have already decided this sort of game isn’t for them to actually give it a try: You may actually enjoy its simplistic and sometimes challenging gameplay.
