History VideoGame / FinalFantasyLegendII

* ATasteOfPower: Mr. S can [[OneHitKO one-shot]] just about any enemy or even group in the first cave you go to, but he leaves after you go through it. Also comes with the Cure spell which should be able to full-heal any of your party members. Some players exhaust all his skills before exiting the cave to earn money.

* TheCameo:
** The [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyI Death Machine]] appears as a boss battle in the dungeon south of Final Town. It had also previously appeared as a boss in ''The Final Fantasy Legend.'' (In ''[=SaGa=] 2,'' this enemy's depiction is a new illustration including the digit "2" painted on the side of the machine.)
** TheFourGods as seen in the first ''[=SaGa=]'' return; they are some of the tier-5 ultimate transformations for your monsters.

* ChineseGirl: Lynn/Lin.

* SelfImposedChallenge: Using intentionally unbalanced parties (such as four robots or four monsters) is a popular form of self-imposed challenge with this game.

* BonusBoss: The Arena of the Dead, containing souped up versions of bosses you already fought. The only reason to challenge it is to get an item based on your team status (Using Threads of Fate). All weapons/spellbooks/items and threads consumed during the battle are returned to you afterwards. Extremely easy to exploit given that some bosses are weak to petrification (Ashura Soul for example).

* EleventhHourSuperpower: Your final NPC is [[spoiler: the Goddess Isis herself]]. With 99 in every stat, one Flare spell can wipe out most enemies in the game.

''Final Fantasy Legend II'' (''[=SaGa 2: Hihou Densetsu=]'' [[note]]lit. "Treasure Legend"[[/note]]) is the second game in the ''VideoGame/{{SaGa|RPG}}'' series for the UsefulNotes/GameBoy. As the title difference implies, it was not originally an installment of the [[RunningGag toe-crashingly popular]] VideoGame/FinalFantasy series, but was marketed as such outside of Japan.

In 2009, the game was [[VideoGameRemake remade]] for the UsefulNotes/NintendoDS for the series' 20th anniversary, with upgraded graphics, tweaked gameplay elements, new characters, designs by ''VideoGame/TheWorldEndsWithYou'''s Gen Kobayashi, and a new name: ''[=SaGa 2: Hihou Densetsu: Goddess of Destiny=].'' Although [[NoExportForYou it will never come out on western shores,]] thanks to ''VideoGame/UnlimitedSaga'' and ''VideoGame/{{Romancing SaGa}}'' bombing hard, a fan translation group has translated it.

* {{Bishonen}}: Want a male human or male esper character who looks [[BigBeautifulMan burly]] or manly? Tough luck -- ''all'' your possible appearance choices appear impossibly skinny with androgynous faces. Granted, these characters are not ''quite'' adults, but a great many teenagers in any country look nothing like this [[HollywoodHomely and still look perfectly alright]].
