Looks like they're pulling the same stunt that they did with Anthology, including a CD of "Final Fantasy's Finest". Think they got it right this time?

Nice to see the graphics at least remain unchanged for it. It looks good enough without changing how it looks. Hope they don't change the title screen again. FF4 Advance's looked bland without the black background and crystal, and I can only assume FF5 Advance's is lacking the cool watery reflection of the title. FF6's title screen is too awesome to change to the typical white screen.

That preorder set looks pretty nice.

Re: Final Fantasy VI Advance Scans

Obviously a must-have.

No its a will-have. As in, you will have it or else!

Seriously, though, I can't imagine not getting it. Having my favorite FF where ever I go would be sweet!

V Advance has the orginal screen.

There's also some stuff on gamefaqs about another extra dungeon as well.

Ah, no worries then. Aside from potential music quirks (though I think FF4 is the only one that sufferred buzzing notes so far) and timing issues during the screen-transition-intensive 21-minute ending. Speaking of music, I hope they don't try to change FF6's music. The remixed songs are welcome in FF1-5, but FF6's music is already plenty good enough.

If it aint broke don't fix it, huh? I don't see how better versions of good music ends up being a bad thing. I feel the same way about the translation and graphics.

And V Advance didn't have any buzzing notes or timing issues or slow down in gameplay so I'm pretty confident that VI Advance will be just as good of a port.

I don't mind them changing things like the music, but I hope they don't rename stuff like the Atma weapon or Ultros as they have in other remakes, since its pretty much engraved into memory now.

Re: Final Fantasy VI Advance Scans

better not rename shoat!



i don't know. it looks awesome and all, but i'm not sure if i'll get this. too much "making it better!!!!" will make it no longer the game that i've been playing for the last decade.

Re: Final Fantasy VI Advance Scans

What a foolish sentiment.

And Shoat is remained as Catoblepas in V Advance.

Also, I was hoping for new character portaits.

Re: Final Fantasy VI Advance Scans

I hardly think that adding a new dungeon, remixing some music, improving the translation, and giving you some new features to mess with could classify as making it a different game. I'd argue that a game with the same graphics, same gameplay elements, same world and dungeon design, same characters and plot, and same compositions couldn't classify as a "different game" no matter how hard those features were pushed, and even if it somehow did, I don't see why that would matter unless they changed everything and really, really badly ruined it. Which I don't see happening.

Re: Final Fantasy VI Advance Scans

I think this game comes out in early February, which gives me time to finish XII and V.
