I just finished play FF1 and FF2 remakes for PSP and enjoyed them. So I figured why not continue with the main series.
I dusted off my DS and got the FF3 remake, thinking it would similar to the PSP remakes, but sadly I am disappointed.

I don't like the graphic style it has, nor the controls. It is leaving me to wonder how close it is to its parent Famicon version.

In a nutshell, which version of FF3 should I play?

Either play the one you like, or both?

Further research indicates yes, unless I play a patched Famicon/NES rom.

So it is either NES, outdated 2d graphics
or DS, botched 3d graphics.

Did not like ff3 on the ds at all. :(
also, graphics dont matter...so go with whatever one has better gameplay, which is probably neither. :lol:

FF3 is pro on the DS. I think they did a good job with it.

Go download a NES emulator and download a translated FF3 rom. I played probably 10-11 years ago and even on NES graphics it was an amazing game.

I decided to stick it out with the DS version despite the graphics. I have heard a lot of good things about the storyline but still have yet to see it.

Here is an interesting pic.

The game itself is turning out to not be that bad, I guess because it is based off the original.
It is just the botched graphics that are bringing me down.

Btw, thanks for the PM. :)
