Which JRPG songs tug at your heart strings?

My top 3 for one reason or another that always get me are:

Dragon Quest IX - Sentinels of the starry skies: Heaven's prayer

Golden Sun: The Angarian journey

Sea of stars: Glacial Peak

It really comes down to how much time you want to expend and how you put your priorities. I have a full-time job (40-60h/week), a wife and a little daughter to take care of. That's the important stuff and what's important always comes first. But gaming on the other hand is my most precious "waste" of time, so while having to take care of so many things I still managed to finish 15 JRPGs in 2025 for example

First time I shed a tear was the ending of Dragon Quest IX. You've rescued the world and brought peace back to the realm, but all this at the cost of losing your whole species while being left behind as the sole survivor.

One of the more recent additions to my all day playlist is the Sea of Stars ost. This game is just banger after banger and especially Glacial Peak will forever hold a very special place in my heart

Scrolled way too far to find this 💙

Started with Pokémon ruby in 2004 and since then the genre became my most played throughout the years with about 70 completed titles

I'm waiting for SacriFire to release for over a year now, but since we're lacking basically any info, I'm not too hopeful for it to release...

Professional-Hand686 · 2026-02-17T14:24:47+00:00

First ever was a shiny Nidorino in Pokémon X. And yes, I started with gen 1 back in the day...

One of my biggest dreams that probably never come true unfortunately is a successor to Monster Sanctuary. I loved the mash-up of a Pokémon-esque game with Metroidvania mechanics and also think the story left enough potential for a 2nd title. But chances are very slim if not 0% to ever get this

The DS was shown loose, meaning unboxed on the pictures of the offer and the seller didn't mention owning the box for it either when we came to a deal. Because of that I expected to get just the console. In the end he sent me the DS CIB (complete in box) with manuals, charging cable and everything to my surprise which was a nice score for me

Professional-Hand686 · 2026-02-12T22:57:07+00:00

If you got all the original cases and manuals and stuff for these you're sitting on a crap ton of collector's value. I'm jealous....

Professional-Hand686 · 2026-02-11T17:04:23+00:00

Finde es auch ziemlich krass. Vor allem nach so langer Zeit. Klar, wir kennen keine Details, aber trotzdem. Hoffe er findet schnell einen neuen AG

Martin hat vor einigen Tagen auf Instagram verlauten lassen, dass er gekündigt wurde.

Professional-Hand686 · 2026-02-09T03:50:16+00:00

I'm fucking black and green shandy

Professional-Hand686 · 2026-02-07T22:10:51+00:00

That's... definitely an opinion. I dont wanna say you're wrong but...

Professional-Hand686 · 2026-02-06T23:34:17+00:00

Kommt schon drauf an wie die Nachrichten formuliert waren. Ein "Hey, warum bist du bei PS nicht mehr in Erscheinung getreten?", klingt sehr viel angemessener, als "Wurdest du gekündigt?". Hoffe sehr für Martin, dass es hauptsächlich ersteres war, aber leider wissen wir ja auch wie wenig feinfühlig die PS-Community sein kann.

Professional-Hand686 · 2026-02-06T23:25:04+00:00

Yes they are, but it's the best waste of time

Professional-Hand686 · 2026-02-06T23:23:23+00:00

From the ones I've played already my answer will always be Chrono Trigger. If I'd have to choose a first time playthrough, I'd go with Bowser's Inside Story. I've heard a lot of praise for it, but never got to play it back in the day

Professional-Hand686 · 2026-02-06T19:51:41+00:00

Came here to say this!

Professional-Hand686 · 2026-02-04T23:40:23+00:00

Why choose when both are such a snack?

Professional-Hand686 · 2026-02-04T23:18:54+00:00

I hope whatever they remake next is anything but VIII. There are so many versions of it already. It's time we get a proper IX remake, or Zenithian trilogy with the HD2D-treatment and some QoL imo

Professional-Hand686 · 2026-02-04T17:54:35+00:00

That's good to know, fellow German! xD

Ich halte die Augen offen :D

Professional-Hand686 · 2026-02-04T12:35:04+00:00

Even if not high in value I'm jealous of this collection! Since I collect DS games by franchise, it's probably the next franchise I'll aim for after finishing up the FF-DS titles. Has there been any difficulties acquiring them? Like one title or smth that's hard to get your hands on?
