Oh God... Oh God.. that really makes me sad.
Genkidama for Japan, even if you don't have money, you can help![1]That game had a Fan Translation ages ago. Her family should have told her about the wonders of ZSNES.
Awww...
See Squeenix! SEE WHAT YOU DID?!

At least she had good taste in games.
UN JOUR JE SERAI DE RETOUR PRÈS DE TOIReminds me of Andy Lippincott from Doonesbury who was relieved he got to listen to "Pet Sounds" before he died.
Jonah FalconWow, thats, sad
And me here with a fanstranslation
I feel like an idiot
Hope that other games dont come too late (where is Xenoblade)
Here's her obit (cached so you can read the guestbook)
You can keep it open for a year for $30 if you want people to continue posting to her guestbook.
By the way, it isn't that sad to me. Here's an old woman who read Nintendo Power, and played video games. She was in her late 40's when the first game was being played on that ancient computer. Yeah, she didn't play Dragon Quest VI, but I'm betting she played other games just as good on the SNES.

Jonah FalconI'm impressed how easily people can be made sad.
And with "impressed" I mena "utterly dumbfounded".
Seriously, you guys...

People aren't as awful as the internet makes them out to be.You clearly do not understand the burning passion we Dragon Quest fans feel. CLEARLY DO NOT.

Cast Hurtmore!
I think it's perfectly normal to commiserate with someone's lost opportunities... It's like the "Only one day til I retire!" guy that you know is going to die and you feel bad because he was probably going to dote on his grandkids or travel the world with his wife, only with a real lady and Dragon Quest VI.
