Anyone have any new information on the port? It's been a few months since I saw much of anything, and I have searched on Google and whatnot.

It has a load of potential to be great, as the only FF game to not have an official USA port (it IS being translated, right? word is it may not be localized.) The initial "screenshots" and videos shown a few months ago look nice, and the music and graphics were already very nice for an NES game initially.

I still think there should've been a "Final Fantasy All-Stars" game for SNES which had straight-up port of FF5 with translation, along with SMAS-style translated ports of FF2J and FF3J. It probably could've easily fit in 32 megabits...

It would [somewhat] be funny and ironic if it never even releases ...

Remember so much talk about a PSX port of this game? Ugh, my hopes were killed on that.

I just seriously hopes it comes out, if it ever does I'm definitely picking it up, and then I can finally say I own Final Fantasy I-X.

... so to actually answer your question, I have no clue on what's going on with this title. Seriously, wasn't it supposed to release a few months ago? I just have a bad feeling about it.

I don't remember PSX port talk, but I know the Wonderswan Color port was cancelled.

And yeah, I want to own the game legally--Square deserves money for it--even though I have the ROM.

No, it was only announced a few months ago. I don't see what's taking so long that we're not even hearing anything--Square can crank out FF games from scratch in a year as they've shown in the past, let alone when they already have all the code on hand.

Weird, well I just remember seeing sneak peak images of it like a year ago, when the DS came out.

But, I think if you checked out RPGamer.com you could search around and easily find the many PSX-port articles they had. Then again, maybe that site just isn't very trusthworthy? Now that I think about it I don't ever really recall seeing a PSX version talked about at RPGfan (which has never failed me).

I wonder how they'll make use of the two screens? Hopefully nothing too drastic, I was thinking maybe just having a menu at the bottom screen, and the action at the top would be just fine.

Gut feeling is that something's shown at the TGS or before Christmas in one of the magazines there (maybe Famitsu).

I wouldn't be surprised if they're putting in a lot of effort on this port given the fact it's the only one of the early FF's never to be re-released on any platform.

What kind of effort though?

Judging by old pictures and everything, aren't they -not- touching up on the graphics a bit? Still, maybe they're just adding a lot of new things to gameplay, or something ...

So far, I've seen a few DS games not being released at the correct date (and still unreleased).

So this may be one of them.

But I'm looking foward to it.

Well, I don't even remember a specific release date being given. They're probably going by the Duke Nukem Forever "When It's Done" policy. (grr, now will THAT ever be released? 3dRealms learned the hard way shooting for 1998-2003 release dates on that...)

Touch-up the graphics, bring it in line with all of the other FF remakes (Bestiary, extra options, etc.), add in DS-specific features since maybe the touchscreen could be used for something, tweak the gameplay, add in new areas... etc. Lots they can do.

To be fair, I can't blame them for not looking in an FFIV thread for stuff about FFIII.

Yeah, saw this news a few days ago. At least we know why it's been taking forever now ...

Still though, I think it would maybe be nice if they included the original game with this new version also, but probably not. Mehahub.

Ever since Square shut down Chrono Trigger: Ressurection, I've never had faith in the company. They make good games, but they're greedy and heartless like all the rest of them. They do NOT deserve the money.

To be fair, I don't think the boss themes were that bad in FFIIIj, but they could use a LITTLE tweaking... but not a lot. I'm sure whatever the final boss theme is, it will probably sound a little bit like the other boss theme... but that's just based on the NES experience.
