ED was completely underrated, underhyped, and majorly undersold. thats a damn shame, too, cuz most everyone who has played it gave it raving reviews.
i think it got lost in resident evil comparisons.
the company, however, much like HAL, factor 5, and especially retro, has become a pet of nintendo's because of the amazing development of the game. they have a certainly deserved great working relationship because of it.
