This series was effectively my introduction to Capcom, which has since remained one of my absolute favorite devs, constantly putting out games I adore. The style, the combination of Zelda and Mario (or at least that's how I saw it) mixed with the humor gave it a charm that has stuck with me ever since. It's also rather tragic as this was intended to be a trilogy, and we never got the third game. My hope (and it's a pipe dream) is that this could garner enough attention brought back to pc that Capcom could be pushed to give us the finale we never got. I'm not a good writer, but this series means a lot to me; I hope that comes across. I'd love to revisit it, and see others play it for the first time to see why it's so special to someone like me.
