Interesting news. I was wondering what had happened to the FFIII port since both 1 and 2 did get one. Also, it's exciting news that there's a contest involved as well. Now I wonder if they are going to get the easier port or the super duper hard version from the NES days. But it will be nice and slick, might even be slicker than the other 2.

Will this version of the game have voice acting?

If so, what other features will it provide that will set it apart from the DS version?

I was planning to buy FF3 on Android (it's out in Japan, not here in the US yet). I'm kind of OK on the news about the PSP port. But why not make it on the Vita instead of PSP, the system needs a boost in Japan. If they had release FF3 on Vita it would help the system sell well in Japan because well Final Fantasy is popular in Japan and anytime FF is release on any console, that console will sell well because of FF.

Because releasing it for Vita only is stupid business idea. You lose a big player base, while giving nothing that exclusive. There is just nothing that would it require vitas hardware. Game itself isnt going to have great graphics or anything.

Someone needs to remind SE that Final Fantasy V and VI exist. Yes, I'm aware that ports exist, but I'd really love to play a remake of FFV since it's the only one I have yet to play.

It's not a stupid idea, the bandai wonderswan would've not sell well if it hasn't been for Final Fantasy 1 and 2. Remember Final Fantasy is a popular series in Japan, no matter what console, it would sell well. Beside, I wouldn't mind the HD resolution for FF3, along with touchpad support and exclusive quest and jobs not found on other ports.

You do know that FF1 and FF2 had very low sales on PSP compared to DS? All while Crisis Core and Dissidia did sell millions on PSP. Obviously third part isnt going to be bestseller either. So making it Vita exclusive isnt that great idea. Its a remake/port not new game. Its not gonna sell big anymore, as most people who wanted it did already buy DS versions of FF.

Nothing about the level of graphics on the actual play.

Of the Playstation ports, I have no problems with the FF Origins version of I and II, while the FF Chronicles version of IV comes across as a little too primitive. I think they updated that one less from the original version.

I wonder if there will be an English-language release sometime?

The game is an obvious DS port by the graphics in the scans and such. It doesn't need Vita's power, and since PSP games bought off of PSN work with Vita there's little to no point.

Wait....this is the exact same thing as the NDS version!


I mean, it's a good game and all, but....atleast make it different or something. In terms of graphical prowess, the PSP should be stronger than the NDS. Don't just make a straight out port.
