couldnt resist...
and no, this isnt an official cart just a pirate.

Yes, I know it. But its not a pirate, its selfmade. English Translation - Reproduction.

I think I have it too someday.

[TheRedEye]

That's a pretty label.

[TheRedEye]

Got the scans. You rock, Budrick.

Actually, like several other FF games, FF3j was rereleased on the Wonderswan Color. Oddly enough, there is no fanmade translation patch yet for that rerelease, even though patches for FF1 and FF2j on the WSC exist.

Are you sure? I have buy FF1 & FF2 with WonderSwan Colors, but then FF4 was released for WonderSwan Color. But not FF3, I think. Or is this later too released? Have not hear from that.

[Jorpho]

Well, I've never seen the WSC FF3 rom myself. I suppose that would explain the absence of a translation patch.

Wouldn't it be odd if it was skipped over, though? I've heard it's one of the better ones.

[MattyXB]

I think it was announced, but is never completed or sell. Or I am wrong? I have too no ROM, and I have found it not on eBay. I find only FF1, FF2 and FF4 on eBay.com for WonderSwan Color.

So I think it was not produced.

Thanks for the props, Red! Glad I could contribute...thing was just gonna rot over the years, so it needed to be scanned anyway....I'm just glad you reminded me to look...I forgot all about the whole FFII poster, etc.

Glad it arrived safely.

Thanks.

FF3 for WSC never came out. In japan, the people apparently still hold out hope since its STILL on Famitsu's 20 most wanted games list.

[FF6]

Is there any website that talks about ff3? I wonder what this game was about and how different it was to ff1 and 2.

[Jorpho]

I only recall that it was supposed to be quite a good game, using a version of the "jobs" system from FF5.

[portnoyd]

From what I've heard it's FF1 + FF5. Also, since I haven't play it, and this is hearsay, but from people who've played all 10 FF games, that 3 is the best one.

Best FF ever? Doesn't everyone say that about games that haven't been played by many people? I heard Final Fantasy 5 was the best game for so long and then I finally played it and I just thought it was okay. Then it was supposedly 2 and 3 and now it's just 3. Make up your minds already.

Wow, lol...This prototype is a gold mine!!!
Very very nice find, probably the best of the year!

I love the ranges of responses we've gotten. It's either "Oh my fucking god best find ever!!!" or "So what? I already played the translation."

[rbudrick]

Yeah, FF will always bring out good and bad emotions, debate, etc...

Protos and lost games are always excellent fun to talk about...
