With games taking so long to make now, these forms of save importing have become much rarer.
From Chrono Trigger to Earthbound, we’ve ranked the best old-school RPGs of all time.
Some games, both new and old, used saves in a different way.
But he doesn’t stop there.
Before Tears of the Kingdom, the last time it happened was with Majora’s Mask on the N64.
Would it really be a Nintendo console without a proper Zelda title on it?
Here’s every Legend of Zelda game available on the Switch.
It wasn’t a strict one-and-done process either.
In more ways than one.
But it goes deeper than that.
How familiar are these iconic locations from Final Fantasy 7?
After reaching Costa del Sol, you help Johnny repair his new lodge.
Except once its fully repaired, all of your weapons appear on the walls.
Or rather, specifically all the ones you collected, DLC weapons included.
The effects of save importing changes between games, with SUikoden 2 having the most impact.
Certain characters transfer, equipment included.
Really, there’s too much to even detail it all here.
The original DS had a port that allowed Game Boy Advance games to be played.
Heartgold and Soulsilver use the same process.
We take a look at the best stories in Ratchet and Clank.
It literally pays to have played all the games.
2Monster Rancher
The Monster Rancher series is all about raising monsters, plain and simple.
The monsters love it though, really.
What makes the games so unique is in how monsters come to be.
Rather than raised from birth, they are generated from discs.
As in, real-life discs.
It is such a fascinating system.
With the modern re-releases of it, an in-game disc search system is added whichwe have catalogued rather extensively.
Undertale knows it is a game, and it knows how people play games.
Which is why it knows if you do anything to its save file.
The game knows that.
You modify it to give you extra money?
The game knows that.
There’s not starting over.
Undertale will read its own save file and modify as it wants, regardless of your own choices.
Classic fear in modern fidelity
