I got my copy yesterday, and before the medicine for my cold made me drowsy I played a lot of it. So far I gotta say I'm really impressed with the remake. Having played and beat the original I was very excited over this game.

The intro FMV was well done. The graphics don't disappoint for DS. It feels like FFIII and plays like it so I am satisfied. Its pretty old school, which I like, but for some maybe not. The characters have minor personalities which is nice since before they were nameless with no personality. Kinda sucks Onion Knight wasn't their first job but being a secret job sould be worth it.

Touch screen controls are cool to try. You move the character in the direction you click on the screen. You can also tap enemies to choose and and tap again to attack. The dual screens aren't put to full use most the time though. When in dungeons, towns and in battle the upper screen is blank. Kinda sucks but I don't really care. On the world map, the upper screen is a map of the area. Pretty useful heh.

Gameplay wise its the same as FFIII, literary nothing has really changed when in battle. Difficulty seems to be on par so far, just less enemies on screen but the enemies on screen have more HP and power. The jobs system took a change so no more Capacity Points, you can switch whenever you want, but your "weakened" for a fight or two and then your fine.

I'm really enjoying this title again, and hopefully will enjoy Mognet as well. Any that have gotten the game send me a mail thru my friendcode: 3136-1675-4840

Picking it up in about an hour or so.
I am gonna enjoy the hell out of this. I love the old school ff feel.

I've thought about getting this, but frankly, I'm afraid it might be a little too old school for me. I've played FF and FF2, and I wasn't thrilled. (FF2 had a story to keep me interested, but I'm told FF3 gave the story the backburner to the job system.)

Someone convince me I should get it anyway. I've about exhausted Children of Mana.

I'll wait on this one, but I definitely want it. Wii takes first priority. In fact, I may just want to get the rest of my family DSes before I spend any more money on DS games for myself.

my only gripe, is apparently square forgot that English uses spaces between their words... and failed to put spaces or punctuation symbols on the same screen as the leters. I could handle symbols on a different screen. but something as commonly used as a space? How can you possibly forget that??

Not to be rude, but what the hell are you talking about? o__O

The Mognet. There's no way to put a space, or if there is, Nobody I've talked to had found it.

The space is at the bottom of the "Symbols" catagory, yea it took me a bit to find it out myself. Its stupid and weird but w/e I can live with it.

Story wise, this game is the best one of the NES ones. I wouldn't put it anywhere near FFIV, or even FFV. In a way its like FFV, the real prize was the gameplay and jobs but story is pretty good either way. Least the characters aren't 1 dimensional like the NES one.

I was going to pick it up on its release date, but due to my busy schedule, I was completely not able to. I had to help my aunt move her things to her new place and by then it was 1 in the morning, so I decided to drop by the 24 hour wal-mart to see if they had it.

I looked around, saw Children of Mana, Final Fantasy V advance.. all these brand new games that came out on their release dates..

No FFIII DS >_>;

There were absolutely no representatives around for me to ask at all. So I was about to go home and then I saw this fat balding man stuffing his face with one of those chocolate éclairs. I asked him about it and he walked over to the GBA/DS section and stared for about 2 seconds then went "this is all we have", then continued his face-stuffing. I asked him "Are you sure you don't have it in stock so-" "We don't have it." *continue stuffing face*

:( I still haven't been able to get it since I'm only free after 10pm.

Sux. I'm hoping to get it tomorrow afternoon, try to make some time in between work and work 2. x_x;

The whole time I was thinking "Yeah.. and you guys complain about getting paid shit."

...besides the point: The Wal-Mart is/was selling ps3's at 12:01am today. They didn't allow campers so it was basically first come first serve.



How's the gameplay so far, btw? Is it EXACTLY like FFIII? turnbased like it was? or upgraded into FF4~up?
