    Talking Final Fantasy IV Remake for Nintendo DS

    Anyone play this yet? I for one will be picking this up tomorrow. Circuit City seems to have the best deal, as they are giving away a $10 gift card when you purchase the game.

    I love the graphics and mapping system with the DS. Sad that the extra dungeon and Party Customization at the end of the game had been removed from the GBA version, but this looks too sweet, so it makes up for it.

    Impressions?

    AHHA!!! This is what I wanted!

    I knew there was a game coming out around the 22nd that I wanted but for the life of me couldn't remember which one.

    Great! Thanks! I'll pick this up tomorrow. I'll check if anywhere local has any added bonus/discount

    I will be picking this up Wednesday, I am very excited for it, I've been waiting for this for a long time. I haven't played FF IV since it was originally released for the SNES. So I think the story will seem pretty fresh for me when I pick up the remake.

    Meh...honestly I'll be sticking with the original version if I so choose to play it again. I never could and still cannot stand the 3d remakes of these games. I played 5-6 hours into FFIII DS and it felt like a chore the whole way, did not keep me interested in the least. And I loved the original FFIII(J).
    Yes, unfortunately for me I think the slickest looking part about FFIV would have to be the box art:

    I'm 10 hours in, and only at the Tower of Zot. The battles are a lot harder then the original game, most enemies have new attacks, and lots more HP. I'm having a great time so far.

    Aww, dammit! I LOVE FFIV, but I don't own a DS and I hate playing handhelds!

    I don't think I'll get it, if only because I just picked up FF IV Advance last weekend... Unless it's really quite different (aside from the graphics, of course)

    Ditto. 3D polygons look nasty on the DS. I played FFIII for about the same time and it bothered me so much I put it down.

    I hear FF IV is FAT HATS. But thats just what i've heard.

    Oh and fix your signature!

    I'll get this in the not too distant future, but I can almost guarantee that this is going to sit like every other SquareEnix DS game that i've got (which is all US releases), which will be sealed and unplayed.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.
