Is the SNES version worth playing anymore? - Page 2

Unlike IV, I wouldn't say that the gba version "massively outclasses" the snes version when it comes to VI. I didn't consider it that much of a difference. Some things got better, some things got worse, and some bonus content was added, but none of it is essential. Whichever one you haven't played is the one that's most worthwhile to play in this case.

GBA version. Better translation, music, backgrounds, and fixed bugs. Plus, it has the Dragon's Den dungeon.

Being portable is the only bonus for the GBA version for me. The revised script is nicer in spots but not that amazing. Also, I didn't find the Dragon's Den or Soul Shrine that interesting.

I thought the backgrounds were worse as they had to cut some of them out due to the smaller height resolution of the GBA screen.

Another change I appreciate was the new font. It allowed for more script to be typed (z.B. Valigarmanda as opposed to Tritoch). Also your characters' names aren't capitalized, so rather than it being the story of TERRA, it is the more pleasing to the eyes story of Terra.

I always renamed them to give them lowercase letters in the other versions anyway, so that wouldn't really be much of a bonus for me.

"Poo on peace!" Best line in the game. GBA is worth it just for that line. And of course you can abuse the Game+ and steal as many Swords from Kefka as you want. And the Gauntlet you go through lets you steal other one time only items as much as you want (well until you beat it)

They're both worth it since it's an awesome game.
But I'd make sure to play the SNES version at least until the episode when you save Celes, otherwise you get deprived of a great scene.
Actually, I believe the Celes beating scene is in the GBA ROM as well and could be unlocked via some debugging or ROM hacking, but I have no proof to demonstrate this at the moment (though I have my very good reasons to think so).
