  • In this episode we dive into the development of Secret of Mana for the Super Nintendo. When you bring up Secret of Mana the pure magical feel that it evoked is often immediately brought up by its fans. But did the development cycle reflect the tranquil atmosphere of the game? We explore the history of Seiken Densetsu, the Maru project, the Super Nintendo Cd-Rom adapter, Translucency effects on the SNES and more.

    Hiroki Kikuta composed a masterpiece with this soundtrack. It makes almost 90% of the games atmosphere. Hands down one of the best soundtracks ever made for a videogame.

      Is it hands down the best or is it one of the best? Hands down one of the best is like saying "Its definitely the most above average thing ever!"

      There is mmo game in the making that is Secret of Mana inspired and the composer of original game made music to it. The game is called Everland - th-cam.com/video/UbFa6tpXFCM/w-d-xo.html

    Had to pause at 0:26 "The pure magical feel that it evoked, is immediately brought up by it's fans" This is so true, the game has a place in my soul haha spot on dude.

    This video was simply fantastic. I fancy myself somewhat of a "gaming historian" and had NO CLUE that Chrono Trigger splintered off from Secret of Mana. So many interesting facts from this game's original development, inspired use of the Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger soundtracks, and unmatched production value. You sir, have truly outdone yourself. 10/10.

    • @strafefox
      @strafefox  6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Heard about this game first on the playground with a friend when I was 8 in the 90s when this came out. Rented it a bunch of times then had my save file erased. Ended up buying it and it seemed to take forever to beat but a hell of a lot of fun all the way until the end, captivating story and emotional drama. Very well done battle system, probably still my favourite action-JRPG to date.

  • @YosemiteLakesHOA
    @YosemiteLakesHOA 5 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    One of my favorite games for SNES as I was lucky enough to own this masterpiece.The music was so awesome as I remember as a kid getting chills hearing the various dark church/temple areas.

  • @burningpapersun1
    @burningpapersun1 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    The music from Secret of Mana will always get me. It's one of the first games where I realized that a game soundtrack could be art. Every time I hear some of the songs I'm taken back to my childhood and how I loved the mystical feel that this game gave me.

    • @robertmaniac
      @robertmaniac 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's exactly what happens to me, all those memories, I play that game almost every year I love it.

  • @Lyrandar

    man, i remember when i first played Secret of Mana way back when. Me and my mom went to this tiny audio/video rental place all the time called Melody House. I would be allowed a single game for the weekend to rent. Eventually i came to Secret of Mana.
    i put the cartridge in at home, and after the ritual blowing and fiddling got it to work.
    Immediately i was blown away by that whale cry and the amazing intro. That moment was so far beyond anything i had previously seen that it wouldn't be replicated again for years. The soundtrack more than anything else was what captured my young self. Even when i wasn't playing i'd have it on so i could hear the music playing. The mournful tune as he was exiled from Potos was my favorite.
    I spent so many weekends playing this game, crying when other renters would delete my save file, happy when i FINALLY beat it after months of attempts.
    When they remade it, i bought it that very day it came out due to the nostalgia alone.

    • @strafefox

    What you just did was throw me right back into my undying love for this game and my childhood.
    My father passed away almost ten years ago, and this game, along with FFIII (VI) and Super Metroid were some of the best times we shared together. My dad my brother Andrew and I sitting around the TV playing this..
    Amazing tribute, to an amazing game. Thank you.

    I always get a little emotional when I see something about Secret of Mana. But this video was something to the next level. Thank you for putting time into this. I really appreciate it. And I wish I could shake Hiroki Kikuta's hand, the soundtrack I still hear to this very day.

    Woah. I don't think that anybody can name a retro gaming channel that has better production than this. My favourite channel by far. This video actually brought a tear to my eye. Please contact Nintendo. You would easily make the best videos for it. Also, I wonder what the video creator thinks of Xenogears.

    • @strafefox
      @strafefox  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks so much! I must admit that I never played any of the Xenogears games :0
      The thing is.. when the 16-bit era ended I got my first fulltime job and gaming went on the backburner for me.
      So with the exception of Castlevania, ff7 and Metal Gear Solid, I skipped over most of the games from that generation.
      But Xenogears looks fun!

    I don't think there is a single content creator on here that does your kind of work that is anymore near as thought provoking and moving as how you present the material.

Your work is amazing, never stop.

    TH-cam first brought me by luck to your video about Donkey Kong Country, I really liked it so I decided to subscribe.
    Then I was recommended this video of yours about my favorite game ever, and I have no word: the amount of information (so much I didn't know about!!), the editing, the narration... Bravo! I wish many people can see your work, this is simply wonderful!

    I've never played this game before, nor am I a fan of RPGs, but now I want to play it.

      That's great to hear! Mana is really accessible for a RPG, it's somewhere between Zelda3 and an oldskool Final Fantasy. So the game mechanics are straight forward but it has more narrative drama than a zelda game.
