Final Fantasy Remakes For Game Boy Advance
By David Smith
4/9/2004

After a brief hiatus following Sword of Mana and Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, Square Enix is back on Game Boy Advance, Shonen Jump reports this week. Square's next project for GBA is another revival, a portable compilation of Final Fantasy I & II due to hit Japan in July.
That's the same pair of 8-bit RPGs that came to North America for the PlayStation as Final Fantasy Origins. However, the GBA remakes will feature a few new extras on top of the content from the original games.

Final Fantasy will have a new dungeon, "Soul of Chaos," featuring a few boss monsters drawn from later games in the series. Final Fantasy II, meanwhile, will have a new story sequence, "Soul of Rebirth," exploring the background of the four main characters before they set off on their adventure.

The first screenshots of the remakes also indicate that the original Final Fantasy will have a different magic system. Instead of the Dungeons & Dragons-style spell level system from the original game, it seems to use the magic point system from later games in the series.

Americans have of course already gotten to play both games through Origins, but the prospect of portability makes a localization attractive regardless. This remake also holds out the possibility that it might be followed by a GBA version of Final Fantasy III, the only game in the series never released in North America. We'll keep an eye out for any news of these games from Square Enix USA, especially going into E3.

And...I love Evanescence. Lyrics for the Month:

Playground school bell rings again
Rain clouds come to play again
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
Hello I’m your mind giving you someone to talk to
Hello

If I smile and don't believe
Soon I know I’ll wake from this dream
Don’t try to fix me I’m not broken
Hello I’m the lie living for you so you can hide
Don’t cry

Suddenly I know I’m not sleeping
Hello I’m still here
All that's left of yesterday

EMode Test Result (Are you Naughty or Nice?):

You're a Straight Arrow
You're all about sweetness, sunshine, and smiles. We've never met anyone nicer than you. In fact, we wouldn't be surprised to come across you sitting in a peaceful green meadow, surrounded by adorable baby animals eating out of your hand while your halo shines in the sun. Nah, we're just kidding. But you are an awfully good person. Sure, you may have dipped your toe in the naughty pool once or twice, but you generally stick to the shallow end, leaving the deep waters to the leather-and-nudie-magazine crowd. It's all well and good to follow the straight and narrow, but it's okay to walk on the wild side once in a while, too. Have a drink. Make a crank call. Go to strip club. Trust us — as long as no one gets hurt, it's fun to be bad!

Okay...Now I'm finished for the night!
