Onimusha Tactics, Finale: The True Genma King.

There are a lot of other things I could be doing right now, like watching a Super Eyepatch Wolf video called "How Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Destroys Me" or something like that. But instead here I am finishing Onimusha Tactics. I always finish what I start, unless it's Dragon Quest VI.

Onimusha Tactics, Part 7: Hideyoshi's Last Stand.

 

Episode 43? My goodness. How many damn episodes does this game have?

Onimusha Tactics, Part 6: The Unpatriotic Mitsuhide.

 

Today on Onimusha Tactics: Nobunaga's second-in-command must face the wrath of our heroes!

Onimusha Tactics, Part 5: Let's Fighting Love.

 

Our heroes take on Hideyoshi's giant laser-cannon and and his legion of robo-demons, as we continue the game that Ubisoft calls "a stunningly accurate re-creation of Japanese history"

Onimusha Tactics, Part 4: Onimaru is 100% Pure Rudo.

 

However, Nobunaga Oda is the very definition of efficient.

Onimusha Tactics, Part 3: I Have Vowed To Kill 1000 Monsters.

 

Trying to stop Nobunaga and Hideyoshi? Humiliation.

Much like in 2003, this game is a nice respite from all the struggles and bullshit going on in the real world.

Onimusha Tactics, Part 2: Himeji Striptease.

 

Time for the Game Boy Advance to get Rated M for Mature.

Onimusha Tactics (Game Boy Advance, 2003)

 

This is a tactics game from Capcom that uses characters from the Nobunaga era. A concept that's pretty much impossible to go wrong with, and they didn't. This is one of the more underrated games of the GBA era. Never heard much of anything about it, but it exists and it was pretty cool.

Funny thing is, I played it in 2003-2004 instead of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance because I wanted to save FFTA for later/better times, and this was kinda just its stand-in as "something to do". Then it proceeded to exceed expectations. Meanwhile, when I eventually got to FFTA in 2009 or so, it was a letdown that I never want to play again, and I have way fonder memories of this one in comparison.

Regardless, since I played this in 2003-2004, it's time to take us back. Back...20 years! To a time when I was even less mature! Doodoodoo! Doodoodoo!
