Debating this ranking every few months and honestly it lands somewhere in the middle for me, the charm holds up but the systems around it feel thin compared to what shares its bracket now.

It gets thrown against these massive open world epics and somehow keeps winning duels, which says more about vote habits than about actual depth compared to something like The Witcher 3

It's simple by design and that's exactly why I keep coming back.

Traded cartridges w/ my cousin every weekend that summer, never even beat the league till fall.

That back and forth trading thing seems like half the appeal honestly, way more than I expected from these comments

Yo también lo jugaba así, con un amigo pasándonos la consola, y ese recuerdo pesa más que cualquier análisis

The battle system barely holds up against modern combat design... it works, but calling it deep is a stretch

Same setup here actually, traded the handheld back and forth with my brother for weeks

Same setup, mine was a cousin though, and I still remember whose turn it was to hold the thing.

Le vrai point c'est que le système de capture crée une motivation que peu de jeux d'action ont réussi à reproduire ensuite... c'est ça qui fait qu'on y retourne
