It's Y apostrophe s!

Well, I guess they wouldn't touch the "original" spelling of it. ^^ Man, that cover is scary.

I think he means the picture on the cartridge, which has indeed been taken from the Sega version of Ys 1.

By the way, Ys I for Famicom is pretty shitty, if you ask me. Its weirdness makes it bad. Remember randomly placed teleport statues in overworld map, or that weird door puzzle in Minea Village?  Now I see why you reacted upon my appraisal on this game. xDD I love the door puzzle and the teleport statues!  |

I can't believe I beat the NES Ys I.  I mean... yeah, between the weirdness of the Roda Trees, the weird door puzzle just to get to the rampart, the warp statues, the annoyingly large overworld, the seemingly more complicated shrine, and the pedestal's other hiding place... well I just can't believe I had the patience for that bull. Then of course I beat the SMS version, Windows version, and Turbo Duo version... and just barely played the MS-DOS Broderbund version long enough to say "hey, this sucks -- there's no music!". In the end, the SMS version is the best lowest-color version I've ever played. |

I have all these games on my dreamcast.... I really should sit down and beat them one day. Its hard for me to play anything from that era now and the snes/genesis/pc engine were just so much better.

In the end, the SMS version is the best lowest-color version I've ever played. The DOS version didn't have any music?  Ehhh?? But then why did Feena's song seem so familiar (along with many others) when I heard it many years later? I thought it HAD music?! *is going senile?* |

It has music, but it comes out of the pc speaker and is very, very primitive (and nasty-sounding). That thing was never intended for music, only warning beeps, etc. And yet, there it plays the entire Ys 1 soundtrack... It is almost as bad as the Ys DS soundtrack.

I thought it the most beautiful sounding music ever. And then not hearing it for almost twenty more years has apparently transformed those beep boops to a full blown orchestra in my mind! (I'm only glad to hear it was there! Not nice to think I imagined it all!) But then again I liked the Ys I and II music on the DS too.  Perhaps I'm just deaf? |
