How can I make an Super Nintendo style RPG of my own?

) March 1st, 2013

I’ve always wanted to do this, but when I collaborated with some friends the ideas were just forgotten.

I bought RPG Maker II a looong time ago for the PS2, but it was confusing and I wished I were able to do it on my computer so I could insert my own music of choice and things like that. I assume to do something like that on the computer takes a lot of time and knowledge of scripts. I just want to look more into it though. I would like to ultimately make a ROM playable on an emulator. But what are the programs one uses to make a game like that anyway?

The newer versions on RPG Maker are better; the PS2 version was a bad, dumbed-down port.

I still like RPG Maker as I feel it is the best program of that genre. Don’t let the PS2 version deter you.

There is also an easy to use drag-and-drop programming application called Game Maker. There is a free basic version and the more advanced version is cheap, only like $20 or something.
