Which video game did you bounce off of at first, but then tried again later for it to become one of your favorites of all time? (self.asklemmy)

I got the monster hunter on 3ds (MH 3 Ultimate), and I liked playing it, got pretty good at it, but man....the graphics on that system just isn't right for that game. They tried making it look to non pixilated on a system that was too pixilated for it.

I've planned for quite a while to get it as a rom for my PC or steam deck and use some filters to smooth the jaggedness out of it and see how it does, but still haven't gotten around to it yet. Really need to get on that. I played like 30 hours worth and stopped.

it's originally a wii game (MH 3), for the Wii it looked impressive IMO. considering it a full port to the 3ds impressed me too. but yeah, it's a console game on a too small handheld for most part.

I didn't have issue with the size, really. I just didn't like how the graphics looked on the 3ds.

So I did some digging around a bit, and while I can get the 3ds one to work on my steam deck with online play and much better graphics, it's a pain in the ass. But I can get the wii version on there and looking great quite easily but no on line play. I never played online anyhow, so I plan on going that route and saving myself a bunch of setup time.
