FFV and FFVI to be released on GBA
http://www.rpgamer.com/news/Q4-2005/100505a.html
FFV and FFVI were just announced to being release on the GBA.
This means that within a year if you own a Nintendo DS you can take FFI - FFVI with you where ever you go.
That's right, FFVI, where ever you go. *orgasms*
I hope these will be receiving an updated translation, especially VI. They didnt even bother to fix the glaring typos when they ported VI to PS1.
I wonder if we'll see better graphics at all?
the article says they'll be adding things, so slight graphic and translation upgrades are not out of the question.... this is definitely a dream come true!

I'll definitely buy VI and pick up the other two games some other time. Unless I try getting IV for christmas.
I knew it was coming, but seeing it official makes me get all tingly inside. Best news ever, basically. I just wonder why they waited so long.
Awesome news indeed. I'll be playing all those games(along with Dawn of Souls)on the GB player on my Gamecube
But I wish Square would release FF III on the GBA that way GBA owners can have the complete collection
Vaan - "Hey, you!"
Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
Fran - "....We could help...."
Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

I agree. I don't want to have to buy a DS to play FFIII. Guess I'll be emulating the Famicom version a while longer.
But you do want to buy a DS for Final Fantasy III, Children of Mana, Crystal Chronicles DS, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan, Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow, Yoshi's Touch & Go, Meteos, Nintendogs, and many other great games.
Stay away evil demon of temptation!
Think about it this way, once you buy your DS you will have a hand-held capable of playing the entire pre-psx numerical Final Fantasy collection all on its own.
This is the kind of news I like to wake up to.
not only that, it'll be able to do wireless multiplayer with people around the world on games like Mario Kart, plus all those great game mentioned earlier, and the ones that are sure to come out such as Fire Emblem games.... the DS is going to be so awesome once all these great games start coming out! Right now I think the GBA is the best system, used to be the SNES, but most of the great games are coming out for the GBA, and with all these great games coming for the DS... omg.... <3Originally Posted by Necronopticous

I wonder how much they'll have to downgrade the games' sound quality to accommodate the GBA.
probably nothing have you played riviera the promised land that sound was great a gba can handlle more than people think
Too big. <-- yeah i heard that one before
Howsomeever, it's not a miracle box. Using high quality sound samples eats up ROM space, which is a pretty important thing to conserve where cartridges are concerned. You can hear how heavily compressed the sound samples were for Dawn of Souls just by listening to them. There's an audible hiss any time any music plays. Now, that's not to say that the music wasn't freaking amazing, just that you have to make sacrifices when you're making carts. Not everybody wants to pay $100 for a cart just for the improved sound quality. The ones that DO want to do that are what we like to call "Neo Geo owners".
