I´ve played the NES originals for quite a time now, and a few months ago I tried to DoS versions.
I thought it was pretty beautiful, everything, but it just wasn´t the same.
I constantly felt unused to the whole of the versions, and I simply wonder - will I think of them differently if I play them for a while?
Or will I prefer the originals for the rest of my life?
Well, there's only one way to know for sure, right? But nostalgia can make people rather dumb about these things, so depending on how fond your memories of the original version of are, DoS may never stand a chance.
In your own opinion it is-Yoda Speach
In my opinion, yes the gba versions are better. They don't change any of the story, characters, or music, only add details to it. And the numbers are also changed around to a sane level. One thing that I can not stand in the originals is the messed up things they did to you. In FFIII, I rushed through all the way to the end, beat the 4 crystals in the dark world. Then found out beating the last boss was impossible because I didn't have enough Skill Points, which reset when you change job. That really made me sick, it was brutal. And there's no way to go back and save or anything, that's the worst part. You just get thrown in there with no warning that you're about to waste 2 hours for nothing. I don't like when those older FF games do stuff like that, and all 3 of them did it. That stuff is gone in dawn of souls
Define cool for us all please.
Well they DID have the best translation of any game in the FF series. I still want to know how they managed to make "pudding princess" fit.
Well, better, more enjoyable and stuff.Quote:

I liked DOS alot. I just wish I was there to play the original for the NES.
Well I've done it. I bought Dawn of Souls.

That´s my view, anyway.

Oh, and just for the record, FF3 has the best music on the NES (I LOVE "Time Remains"!),
followed by FF1 (Matoya´s Theme rocks!). :D
