The only tips we had were from other people who owned it, or from Nintendo Power.
Even if the story was pretty simple, it was in the exploration, the journey.īack in the days before the Internet, this game was insanely hard. As an avid reader, it felt like an epic story was playing out before my eyes. It was my first and the first for many others in my generation. Sure, Hydelide, Legend of Zelda and others existed, this was an RPG unlike any we had ever played before. Dragon Warrior came out in Japan as Dragon Quest before that, but we wouldn’t receive it until 1989. Were there RPGs for the NES in the early days, not to mention the Personal Computers? Of course, there were! Final Fantasy from Squaresoft came out in 1987. Get them hooked on the challenge and charm now, so they’ll buy future installments. This was a big gamble for Enix this to me is playing the long game. Why would they do such a thing? Could that devalue the game, make it so people would not want to buy it if they could just get it with a subscription to a gaming magazine? Well for one, it really made a lot of customers happy, and two, Video Game RPGs were not exactly common place back then. In fact, every subscriber back then received a copy. Nintendo Power did something revolutionary in giving away Dragon Warrior 1 with Nintendo Power. Few games since challenged me quite like this one did.
