Frankly, Sega’s attempts to exploit the iPhone have been disappointing, to say the least. Needlessly expensive and steeped in inferior controls, ports of Sonic the Hedgehog and Streets of Rage simply haven’t been worth buying at Sega’s inflated prices. Shining Force for three bucks, however? Now we’re approaching a decent offer.
The classic tactical RPG has hit the North American iTunes Store today for $2.99, and is already out in Europe. Given the fact that it’s much slower paced, the touchscreen controls should make for a much more satisfying experience than a fast-paced platformer like Sonic.
The common opinion seems to be that this is the first retro Sega port on iTunes to be worth the cash, so you may want to check it out.
