>How can NES compete
1) Sound quality, in the US.
2) more than one classic game (And don't try to pretend sonic for SMS is a classic. No one bought it here. And Ys also came out on famicom).
3) (if counting japan) The job system in FF3 is really, really fun.

Phantasy Star (1) is probably my favorite 8 bit RPG (Maybe excluding Pokémon), but that doesn't blind me to the fact that it is pretty much the sole reason to own an SMS.

Don't be ridiculous. At least half the RPG catalog. The Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest games alone shit all over Phantasy Star.

Here are some more:
Bloody Warriors - Shan-Go no Gyakushuu
Chaos World
Lagrange Point
Destiny of an Emperor
Otaku no Seiza
Mother
Crystalis
Kouryuu Densetsu Villgust
Juvei Quest
Indora no Hikari
Silviana - Ai Ippai no Boukensya
Kalin no Tsurugi
Musashi no Bouken
Sweet Home
Quite a few of the games here are just as good as Phantasy Star, while some of them are much, much better.

Phantasy Star 1 is so far ahead of FF and DQ on NES that you've reached fanboyism to the point of literal mental illness to even make the claim you did.

Fucking weak. Nah, that pathetic excuse for a retort doesn't smack of desperation at all... Heh. Cope, faggot. Why hasn't Phantasy Star achieved the same amount of success as the aforementioned games? The series went multi platform, after all. What's its excuse? It's pretty fucking evident that the only loony fanboy here is you. Run along now, spastic. Stop polluting this thread/board/site/the fucking INTERNET with your idiocy.

That's right, dum dum. The initial game was a base to be built and expanded upon. It failed. Games from other series got better, Phantasy Star really didn't when you compare it to its contemporaries. You can't polish a turd. Now go be a monumental faggot somewhere else.

This must be the biggest example of cringe and trying hard to be a '4channer' on here.
Anyway, I like Phantasy Star as well as NES RPG's, as far as some elements Phantasy Star was definitely ahead, like presentation, enemy animations, open-ended adventure, etc... But I don't feel the need to compare rank games and choose 'the best!' because I have in fact touched a titty in my life.

That's the thing with anonymity. On one hand, you could be sounding off like some little bitch in one thread (like you're doing here), and on the other, you could be a constant pest in every other thread, ruining it for everyone else (which you undoubtedly do). Stop acting like you're holier-than-thou, piss ant. No one is buying it.

The cons:
-No FM sound for Phantasy Star
-Sound is always dog shit when it comes to GBA ports
-Screen res is also dog shit on GBA, so not MD accurate

-Better PS1 translation

It's kind of debatable. The NES has the edge over the SMS, but as it pertains to external hardware, some might argue that the FM module is better than the VRC7. I don't think it is, but that's just me.
