    NDS The FFIII engine prints money: Final Fantasy IV remake on the way

    via dsfanboy

    Well, if you weren't quite convinced that Final Fantasy III DS was worth getting excited over, then try this on for size: rumor has it that the same team has taken on an update of Final Fantasy IV -- one of three Final Fantasy titles heralded as a contender for the title of best game ever.

    Whereas the original FFIII was passed over for a U.S. release and featured, prior to update, a nameless band of warriors, the next entry in the series originated many of the qualities that turned the franchise into a global powerhouse. The game debuted the Active Time Battle system and featured an epic storyline that's still held dear in the hearts of RPG gamers everywhere. It's been remade several times -- most recently (and we mean recently) for the GBA -- but a remake using the FFIII engine could give the game new life and improve the only thing that needs to be improved, which is the graphics.

    If this is true (and it wouldn't surprise us), we'll most likely hear confirmation on it soon, since the Square Enix Party is this weekend in Japan. According to the rumor, the game is nearly finished as well, so if it's coming, we won't have long to wait.

    The latest v0.5 Beta version of SNEmulDS emulates Chrono Trigger quite nicely. The text is a bit hard to read, but most graphics are fine after some tweaking, and the sound is beautiful now.

    At that rate, they will certainly remake V & VI wich would be quite cool! Snes FF V & VI 2d sprites look great even today, but I can't say no for a total 3d remake..

    Not agree. They aren't simple remakes. Game's scenario is the same, right. But they are rebuilt from scratch in 3d. Its way better than derived stuff like FF X-2 & Dirge of Cerberus. Didn't liked GBA versions of FF IV V VI either. Sound is butchered.

    DS is actually more successful. Why would you port this game to a console/handheld with bad sales?
    Also a lot of people think the psp is 'more mature' than the ds
