   A friend of mine and I played Secret of Mana until our money overflowed the bounds of an int (or whatever was backing it. It evidently caused save game corruption, and that was the end of our epic run.

      That is a way cooler end.

      I soent a lot of time grinding up the levels on the spells to get the extra cool effects that would happen more frequently as your spell level approached 9. Though it would never pass 8:99 if I recall correctly.

      I lent the game to a friend. His kid brother overwrote every save file with one called Mnupll.

      Love the game. Never redid that. Would have liked to max out weapons because I think you could grind for orbs in the final fort.
