Goddamn I played the shit out of this game. Over and over and over, pokemon and this.

So many different Items to get. Damn I still remember spamming that Toxic like move against Voldemort, then blasting his ass with the fully upgraded fire spell.

Brb downloading this now.

This was a cool game. The GBA version, not so much.

I almost sold this game when I was younger.
I'm glad I didn't!

What's amazing is every single one of these is a completely different game. Apart from the UMD obviously.

Just how different are the games? Clearly a PS1 game isn't going to be the same as a GBC game, but are they at least the same genre?
Why would they use the same cover art?

>>2284560
PC, PS1 & PS2 are 3d action adventure style, GBA & GBC are RPG's. But they all have different maps, locations and music. They all obviously share a similar overall plot, but thats about it.

The same thing went for POA, Quidditch world cup & Goblet of Fire, and then they pretty much became ports of a single game.

They have the same cover because the publisher didn't care what was in the box and knew they would sell on brand alone.

What's special is that the devs did care and tried to make fun games that experimented on interesting concepts.

Only the sound? That's interesting.

These games are amazing. It's a fucking mystery why they didn't release more Harry Potter RPGs. I always dreamed of an RPG in the same style of the GBC games that spanned all 7 books.
