Thanks for the input so far, everyone. Managed to get things trimmed down a fair bit, especially among the PSP stuff :)

Baroque is odd. It's definitely a diamond in the rough. It's a dungeon crawler type of game with only one dungeon, one really deep dungeon. That's not a bad thing, they actually do it rather well. It's not an easy game, when you die you lose everything you had gained. As remake of a Saturn/Playstation game it does show its age. It's fun enough, it can be awkward to control though. If you can find it cheap give it a whirl.

MJMaranan:
Shining Tears on the PS2 was all right... Combat is real-time action. Kind of felt Dynasty Warriors-esque because you're in a battlefield with groups of enemies. Difference is that you get to perform combos with certain partners that you choose before entering the battlefield or have them be support. (Do new Dynasty Warriors games have this? Only played up to Dynasty Warriors 4. Sorry.)

I think it's a decent game anyway. Looking at your PS2 wish list only, I think Ring Of Red, Shinobi or Stella Deus: The Gate Of Eternity are more worthwhile to pursue than Shining Tears.

I used to own Stella Deus, actually. Sold it a few years back, partially because the voice acting is awful, but I kinda want to give it another chance. I blame the Shigenori Soejima artwork.

I just remembered that Baroque is also on the PS2. No need to buy it on the Wii if you'd rather not. I have the Wii version, but I have no idea if it plays any differently than the PS2 version. That might be because I haven't played it yet. :P
