Wait. Is the GBA version not just a port of the PSX version?

No. None of the GBA ports are. They all feature new translations and (negligible) bonus stuff.

New superior translations, much better presentation in the menus and dialogue boxes

The battle sprites/field sprites and all that are a lot cleaner too.

Loading times are obviously like the blink of an eye now too, which is pretty significant if you played the originals on a disc. Oddly I hear CT PSX still has awful loading times on the PSN version so I'm not sure if the true might be the same for the PSX ports pn PSN.

I tried playing the PSX/SNES versions of the games and I can't get into them. They just feel old and outdated and aren't nearly as enjoyable as their GBA (or PSP, in the case of IV) counterparts. I had the PSX versions of IV-VI sitting around for years and could never get into them, but the moment I picked up the GBA ones I was hooked and blasted through the three.


I agree, but just to let you know that the SNES version has Butz as the main character's default name. I really wouldn't put in the same level as the PSX version with that aspect.

the GBA version doesn't have the wacky hijinks of Faris the Pirate like the FF anthology does

GARR MATEYS AVAST YE SCALLYWAGS

translation: hi

Honestly I've been playing the PSX version and I really like it, despite some of the stupid translations.

But the GBA version has "Oh, my stars and comets! HE'S A SHE!"
