One month ago SEGA brought iPhone and iPod Touch owners Shining Force. This Thursday the SEGA RPG love continues with the release of Phantasy Star II! For just $2.99 the classic game will be fully playable, running on the same emulator as previous games. However, unlike games that require precise controls and fail on SEGA’s Genesis emulator (I’m looking at you, Sonic 2), Phantasy Star II is promised to be a smooth experience as the game itself does not require fast timing or a fast frame rate.
Here’s hoping that we get more SEGA RPGs in the coming months!

I think I'll get this… but not for a couple of weeks.
RPGs are the one exception I'll make for repurchasing games that I already have on the Ultimate Genesis Collection. I never have time at home to play RPGs, but I commute 5 hours total a week. Train time is game time. 🙂
And you spend a lot of time in PS2 mindlessly grinding, which you can do anywhere. I see a problem with playing this when on the go when you get into a tricky dungeon. Without maps, you can wander around until you die.
