So with FF3 now coming to the US, does this mean the translaters who made an
unoffical ZSNES version of FF3 can now get the translations right? Never
played FF3 yet. Its on my "to do list" after finishing Chrono Trigger,
Chrono Cross, FF1 & 2, then FF3, 4-6, already done 7-9...MAYBE by then CPU
speed, RAM, & video cards will be up enough & the software working enough
for PS2 emulator so I can buy FF10 & 10-2....I prefer emulators because of
the "save state" feature. How is the translation for FF3? I've heard its
OK but not great.

OK, I was almost sure it was SNES (Japaneese)...isn't FF1 SNES?

OK, thanks...

FF7-9 = PS1
FF10 & 10-2 = PS2
FF11 (I think they should have not used the numbering system here, since the
others are console games) = PC-online
FF12 = PS2 or 3?

Can you add emulators to the DS like you can the PSP? If so, you should be
able to play all the old games for nes and snes. They are the only ones
that matter anyways.
