How many FFs have you personally bought?

Of all the FF games you own, how many did you personally buy and which ones were gifted to you for holidays, birthday, or some other event?

Out of fifteen? I want to say five, but it's been too long I can't remember.

VII and X were gifted, I bought all the rest myself.

I think X, X-2 and my XII collectors' edition were Christmas gifts

All of the Final Fantasies from I-XIII I bought on my own in some capacity at least once. When I get a non-trout PC I'll likely give XIV a swing too.

I have bought:

-Final Fantasy Anthology
-Final Fantasy VII
-Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII
-Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII
-Final Fantasy VIII
-Final Fantasy X
-Final Fantasy XI
-Final Fantasy XII
-Final Fantasy XIII
-Final Fantasy XIII-2
-Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII
-Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn
-Final Fantasy Tactics
-Final Fantasy Type-0

I have been gifted:

-Final Fantasy Chronicles
-Final Fantasy IX
-Final Fantasy X-2
-Final Fantasy XIII-2 Collector's Edition (Thanks EoFF! :heart:)

I bought:

• Final Fantasy Origins
• Final Fantasy Anthology
• Final Fantasy VI
• Final Fantasy VII
• Final Fantasy VIII
• Final Fantasy IX
• Final Fantasy X
• Final Fantasy X-2
• Final Fantasy X - X-2 Remake HD Limited Edition
• Final Fantasy XII
• Final Fantasy XIII Collector's Edition
• Final Fantasy XIII-2 Collector's Edition
• Final Fantasy XIII Lightning Return
• Final Fantasy Type-0 HD Collector's Edition

Its weird to think.. Final Fantasy IX was the first one I bought on my own, and after that I only bought X and XII from the main series. Though upon investigating everyone else's answers, I bought Anthology, and Type-0, and I've bought Tactics twice. Once for PS1 and once for PSP. And at some point I got the FF1/2 cart for GBA on my own. As well as Crystal Chronicles

I inherited the first game from my older brother, but then lost it when they threw out my Nintendo stuff unecessarily (paranoid) after a house fire. FFIV and VI were bought for me used from a friend when he was selling his SNES and collection, and it also came with Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, Killer Instinct, and Zelda: Link to the Past. Not bad for $75 at the time

And my gracious mother kept me up to date regards to buying me Final Fantasy VII and VIII. With VII I taste tested it at a friends and fell so in love we bought the game and then put the PS1 on lay-away. Oh the anguish of waiting for that game

Its been an eventful series in my life..

Oh wow lets see.
