      @IanDaemon: I tried playing Earthbound a few years ago. I didn't last very long. I made it through a couple of the first encounters, and I just didn't enjoy it. I considered forcing myself to sit through it, but I've never liked that style of combat in games, so I didn't bother.

      @Crush: I've never played a Zelda either. Never had one for the Gameboy, and the next Nintendo I owned was the Wii, so I missed all the stuff in between.

        I'd have to put D on the list of games I've owned on multiple game platforms but have never played the idea of no pause no save game just start to finish beat the game in the allotted time or die trying both intrigued and kept me from starting it .

          Final fantasy. Any of them, I've heard 6 and 7 are good. Tried to play 7 but the game didn't seem to start and had a ton of cutscenes at the beginning so I gave up.

            @gorgar19 I never finished D either. I had it for my PSX back in the day. It was a very fascinating experience back then, but I got stuck somewhere deep into it. AFAIK, is was after that ridiculously hard sequence with the knight's armour in the pit. Thinking about it, it may well be that I eventually lost any motivation to repeat that sequence again and again just to get to the scenes after it.

              Secret of Mana was great!

              Ah yes, that's what I meant.

                @WeirdH Well, I was just talking about one entry in the "Mana" series. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mana_(series)) There may have been a "Sword of Mana" in your region, but I only played "Secret of Mana" and loved it.

                      Since I had read about it in the CVG Magazine Aeons ago, I ever wanted to play Deus Ex Machina... -> Reading that (just searched for now to see if it is/was famous/cult) Wiki Article, I wasn't even aware of any ports, besides it being a sinclair game. ... And for Retropie, the audio-tape could be a real challenge - and DAMNED I may be(!): The reimagining of the game from 2010, according to that article, marked the final performance of Christopher Lee that was released in his lifetime (being released 4 months prior to his death). Now I really want to play it -> In that version with Sir "I am able to speak many tongues, will synchronize myself, Heavy Metal rocks and are a(n) (semi-)immortal being (Vampire/Istari/Sith/etc.)" Lee!

                      Edit: I hate Steam, I hate Steam, I... may need some sleep and consider how deep my hate vs. Steam is vs. me beeing a Fanboy of Sir C.L. ....The OPs Questions ment "so far", or is it a "and never will"??? (From former replies I can assume the first)
