Posachedwapa, ndinayamba kufunafuna kope la JRR Tolkien's Lord of the Rings: Voliyumu 1 ya Super Nintendo - masewera omwe ndidapereka ochepa 3/10 mpaka kalekale. Sindinafune kope ngati chilango chachilendo, kapena kuchita chipongwe - ndimafuna kukhalanso mwini wake chifukwa, ngakhale ndinali woyipa kwambiri, ndili ndi kulumikizana kochokera pansi pamtima.
Kalelo mu 1994, pamene Lord of the Rings adagunda SNES, ndinali kale wokonda zongopeka zongopeka. Mawu oyamba anga a dziko la Tolkien sanali buku la trilogy - kapena ngakhale buku la prequel lokonda ana, The Hobbit - koma Mtundu wa makanema ojambula a Ralph Bakshi wa 1978 mwa mabuku awiri oyambirira a Lord of the Rings - Chiyanjano cha mphete ndi Zithunzithunzi ziwiri - ndipo, kutsatira izi m'malo mosagwirizana (komabe okondedwa) ku Middle-earth, ndinawerenga mabuku oyambirira zaka zingapo pambuyo pake. Podzafika zaka zaunyamata, ndinali ndi njala yofuna kugwiritsa ntchito zofalitsa zambiri zokhudzana ndi mndandandawo momwe ndingathere - zomwe, kumayambiriro kwa zaka za m'ma 90s, sizinali zophweka monga momwe mungaganizire (akanema a Peter Jackson anali ovuta kwambiri. pakali pano).
Monga momwe mungaganizire, ndinali wofunitsitsa kuyika manja anga pa Lord of the Rings for the SNES, ngakhale panali masewera ena okha kutengera mndandanda womwe ndidasewera - Nkhondo ku Middle-earth pa Atari ST yanga - kukhala chinthu chokhumudwitsa. Interplay, kampani yomwe inali kumbuyo kwa SNES, inali itapanga kale masewera awiri a Lord of the Rings pamakompyuta, koma ndimangowona zithunzi m'magazini ndipo ndinali ndisanazisewere. Choncho, ndinali kulowa mu SNES Baibulo ndi mlingo wa chiyembekezo - chiyembekezo chimene chinangowonjezera pamene ine kuwerenga za kukula kwa masewera mu zowonera magazini nthawi.
Kutulutsidwa kwa Lord of the Rings: Voliyumu 1 kunachedwetsedwa pang'ono, ndipo pomwe idafika mu 1994, chisangalalo chinali kukulirakulira m'badwo wotsatira wamasewera, 3DO ndi Atari Jaguar zilipo kale komanso Sony PlayStation ndi Sega Saturn onse. kuyandikira m'chizimezime. Komabe, ndinali wokonda kudzipereka komanso kuti masewera a Interplay's SNES adabwereka ndalama zambiri kuchokera mu kanema wanyimbo wa 1978 adangolimbitsa chikhumbo changa choyisewera.
Komabe, kuchotsa zolemba zanga za rose-tinted kwakanthawi, ndidadziwa ngakhale pamenepo kuti izi zinali osati masewera abwino apakanema. Zowongolera zinali zolimba, malo osawoneka bwino komanso masewerawa amabwerezedwa mopweteka. Panalibe ngakhale njira yosungira batire, chifukwa chake mumayenera kuyika mawu achinsinsi okwiyitsa nthawi iliyonse mukafuna kupitiliza ulendo wanu. Ndipo, monga 'Volume 1' pamutuwu ikusonyezera, iyi sinali nkhani yonse - inatha mutangofika ku Rivendell, zomwe zikutanthauza kuti nthawi zambiri zodabwitsa m'mabuku zidasowa. Komabe, nyimbozo zinali zabwino - kwenikweni, ndingatsutse kuti ndi imodzi mwamawu abwino kwambiri pa SNES.
Ngakhale zinali zolephera zoonekeratu, zopunduka, ndinapirira. Izi mwina zinali chifukwa, chapakati pa zaka za m'ma 90s, ndinali ndi ndalama zochepa zomwe ndingathe kuzipeza (ndinali kusukulu) kotero ndimayenera kuonetsetsa kuti ndapeza pazipita kuchuluka kwa chisangalalo ndi zosangalatsa kuchokera lililonse masewera ndinagula - ngakhale zinali zoopsa. Komabe, ndimamvabe kuti kulumikizana kwanga kwanthawi yayitali ndi dziko la Middle-earth ndi chiyani kwenikweni zinandilimbikitsa kuti ndipitirize; Ndimakondabe ntchito za Tolkien (ngakhale patatha zaka makumi awiri kupitilira zomwe zingafotokozedwe mwachifundo kuti adawonetsa mafilimu a Jackson) koma Lord of the Rings: Volume 1 idabwera panthawi yomwe Frodo, Samwise ndi Gandalf anali ongosewera chabe. dziko la chikhalidwe chodziwika, ndi chakuti iwo nyenyezi mu masewera pa my SNES mwanjira ina idapangitsa kuti bizinesi yonseyo ikhale yosangalatsa kuposa momwe inaliri.
Ndipo tili pano, mu 2021. Zaka zambiri nditatha kugulitsa masewera anga oyambirira pamene ndinagulitsa zosonkhanitsa zanga za SNES kuti ndigule PlayStation (ndikhululukireni, Miyamoto!), Ndatsala pang'ono kunyamula kopi ina - osati kusewera, koma tangotsala pang'ono kundikumbutsa kuti si masewera onse omwe ayenera kukhala ozizira kwambiri kuti muwakonde mopanda malire.
Ndi masewera 'oyipa' ati omwe mumawakonda kuposa zifukwa zonse? Ndipo nkhani ya ubale umenewo ndi yotani? Tiuzeni ndi ndemanga pansipa.
