If you don't explain why this thread is dull. In the case of Pokemon everybody knows why.

The Densetsu no Stafy aquatic platformer series.
Released between 2000-2008 but still technically retro since development begun on the monochrome Game Boy but was stuck in development hell.

The main quest is easy enough to be almost a Kirby redux with different moves, but there are harder hidden levels behind snake doors that open usually post-game, and there are as many of these as regular levels (except the final fifth game that made it to the US where it's just 6 extra-hard timed levels)

I bet this sort of progression was what influenced how Nintendo does their hard mode content, at least until Super Mario Odyssey.

Good answer. I wish more post game content addressed plot hooks left hanging. Hate how Lufia 2's DS reimagining did it though even if it wasn't canonical. Same goes for Chrono Trigger's horrible extra ending where they try to legitimize Chrono Cross' ties to it.

Lunar 2 has a whole quest after you beat the end boss. You can go travel the world after having saved it. Collect up your party again for one more adventure.

Pokemon postgame is garbage, Battle Tower and its successors excluded.

All those games with good scoring systems if you're into that, after beating them you have that to work on. If you count non-infinite loops as well, then that.

Actually that fits even better storywise. Next time I replay I'm totally going to do that.

I wish there was a working psp sega cd emulator.

not technically post-game, but lots of late-game stuff to do (upgrade gears, awesome equipment, etc.)

Lol
You would have to know nothing about RPGs to not get it and then why would you care? Grow up.

Gen 1 and 2 have an insame amount of post-game due to the Stadium games.
