I'm not up on games like these at all, but I've been playing Mystery Dungeon obsessively. Does anyone know of other titles remotely similar to this one?
-
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon and the Izuna games
-
also chocobo's mystery dungeon on that console i no longer own

My Wii got the boot a while ago. ;)
Managed to get a copy of Izuna 2 for $15.00 online. That's pretty good, considering I'm always late to the party on RPG's, and they're usually rare and expensive by the time I start looking for them.

There's also Torneko: The Last Hope and Azure Dreams on PS1 (as well as a Chocobo's Mysterious Dungeon 2), plus Nightmare of Druaga on PS2 (which I didn't like nearly as much as Torneko or Shiren). Torneko is the closest to Shiren out of that bunch.
I need to pick up Izuna 2.

I've been looking into picking up a rogue RPG for the DS. Playing Angband and Titan Quest recently has reawakened my loot hunting cravings. Which of the two do you all prefer: Izuna II or Shiren? I guess a better question would be which one involves more strategy in the battles?
-
neither are loot games -- they're both more survival games in the vein of nethack than loot-em-ups like angband. you get further based on cleverness than on kit.

The Chocobo games are supposed to be heavily watered down, though, aren't they?

I always assumed they were loot style games from the way they're described (only with turn base battles instead of hacking and slashing). I'll check out nethack and get a good idea of what I'm getting into.
