Anyone have FF III DS and want to hop online? I need to send the 7 letters to unlock the hidden stuff.

Yay finally got my lvl 99 onion knights with full onion gear.

This is stupid. No (single player) game should ever be crippled by requiring external resources that cannot be provided immediately by the player alone. Having to find a friend code for someone else online with the same (how many years old DS) game to unlock stuff is the most retarded thing ever.

So was the game any good? I've only played FF Tactics, VII, VIII, IX, X, XI and XIII... And out of those I only liked 3 of them (VII, IX, and XI). I tried tossing on II (I think? It started on a ship and then they talked about a crystal) the other day but it looked really outdated at this point like it would be a cheesy story.

I then tossed on Chrono Trigger and played it for a good hour. That game is timeless!
 
Tweak, did you try to play FFII Jap or FFIV Jap/FFII Eng? In FF2 Eng you start on an airship playing as Cecil and fight a couple monsters before going back home, then the real game starts. FF2 Eng is definitely worth playing if you can forgive the outdated graphics. It was the best in the series in lots of people's opinions.

English. Yeah maybe I should be more patient... I just though Chrono Trigger was still pleasing so I compared it to that.

US FFII you mentioned is actually FF4 and is the best in the series for pure story telling. That game set the gold standard for Shakespeare tragedy JRPG story telling.

Try again. If you can't stomach the dating, thete is a more modern 3D remake on DS that is true to the original in every way. (Square didn't do it, Matrix did, so its true and NOT turned into 10 hrs of FMV with guns and splosions)

That out of the way, the III I'm playing is a similar 3D remake and is the real III, as in the last one on NES before IV that you played (US SNES FFII).

It shows its 8 bit heritage and lack of cart ROM space for extensive text and story but its still an amazing game by NES standards. Its the only official release of the NES Japanese FFIII in the US.

So I can get English II on 3DS? I might just take that route.

I don't mind dated graphics really, but the mechanics seemed a little clunky too. I think the biggest thing I notice is that you get like 10 words of text for every statement so the statements are real simple and just doesn't seem engaging.

I've been thinking about picking up a 3DS anyway... that OOT remake looked real nice when I played it at BB. I played the crap out of that game on 64.
 
Yeah they are old clunky games working with limited memory.

Use your imagination and let the music help fill in the story.
 
Keep in mind that Final Fantasy IV on the DS is the 3D remake not the original sprite-based game. You can also get that 3D remake for iOS (that's what I've been playing it on). Also, if you own a PSP or a Vita, you can get Final Fantasy IV The Complete Collection, which includes Final Fantasy IV (2D remastered sprites), Final Fantasy IV Interlude and Final Fantasy IV The After Years.

So is III. It's also on Android, I have it on my tablet. The FF1 remake isn't too bad, (not as good as the III/IV renake) but not old blocky chars either.
 
I have FFIV CC for PSP but I'm bummed only the Wii virtual console version has the RNG cracked.

100% drop rate on anything if you follow the right actions from game load, down to each monster group, damage, crit, back attack, etc. Screw .01% loot Eg pink tails.

Yeah, I have FF1 through FF4 and FFT for iOS as well as some of their mobile-only games like Chaos Rings. Such a Square Fanboi! :$
