My favorite game is the 64 version. It had just the best setting, festivals, character development, etc. Everything about it was beautiful. I WISH they'd remake the 64 version and just add a few things like easier access to your rucksack and more storage, etc. Oh, and being able to play a girl. ;D

Uh, favorite characters... Since I always play a female... 

Oh, one of my favorites is Sanjay.

He's just very cute, sweet, yet has a stern and proper side to him because he's a 'servant' to Amir.

Uh, other than that... Louis was super cute in Magical Melody...
From ToT and Animal Parade...Owen is pretty cute (I give him credit because he's one of the few men who actually look like men, basically a remake of 'Bob' from the original games, but friendlier).

Willian and Shea were adorable in the sunshine island ones...

Hmm...

Tale of Two Towns... I liked Mikhail, Kana and Cam... I think I married Cam though because we were from different towns... Romeo Juliet thing. LOl.

Sadly, I don't like how they are making it so you have to 'date' to get to know the chars in all the new ones... They should have a few heart scenes, then a few more scenes to get through for marriage, that way we can actually fully get to know the char before we marry them.
