Does the Hits version have the Old Hunters DLC on disc? Or was that another version that had it?

I wonder how many people started their jrpg journey with the magical occurrence of Dragon Warrior showing up in their mailbox.
I wish games just showed up magically in my mailbox now.

What's the oldest game in your backlog? Not even necessarily one you own, just a must play that you haven't had a chance to get to yet.

I feel like the odd one out when I say I've never found the PS controllers comfortable. The sticks both on the bottom are awkward for me. I've found the Switch controller to be a favorite. Right there with the 360.

I really need to rewatch that, I've never sat down and really watched it. I half watched the first season while doing homework when it originally aired. I just needed background noise while studying when I was in high school and it hooked me. Wonder if that's why I got a C in pre calc
