Did anyone actually play this game on the NES?

This game is older than you are, demondude55—if that’s your real name.

What about it? You can still play and admire the older installments in the series, doesn't matter about your age.

I really like picking on demondude55, no matter what the circumstance. Why is that a problem for you?

Lol, alright then, carry on.

On topic- I've never played this game on NES.

It's bloody hard. I've only got around to playing it once on NES, though I've played it a few times on GBA. And I don't think there was a version for SNES...

I got it for Christmas in 1990...I remember that's all I did for the entire next month when I wasn't in school. Beat it in about a month. Not bad for a 10-year-old!

Nowadays I have it on NESter; I've actually been playing it for the past couple of weeks. I'm on average about Lv. 27 (Kn/Ni/WW/BW) and I just got my @$$ handed to me by a bunch of Sorcerers in the Temple Of Chaos...right after I got the Masamune. My WW died and I couldn't use EXIT.

LOL, I'm level 43 and have just done the class change, things are looking great. You all do know that FFII is better, right?

i started with VII, i think sometime after that I downloaded an NES emulator and played it on that. I was hooked, even though it seems mad dated I thought it was great considering its time.

After that a friend of mine actually found a copy of it for NES from a used game store, i used to borrow and play it on my NES but I think the memory chip doesn't work anymore or something.

I've beaten this on DoS, I liked it alot, my only complaint is it's too easy.

I had a friend who played that game. But,I got into when FF6(when it was final fanasy III for super NES) and then got the remade verison along with the gameboy verison.

That level would be absolutely ridiculous on the NES version. I usually beat it in the low twenties, and they max out at fifty.

Well, the title kind of states the obvious. Most people didn't know of FF until VII came into the scene. I, for one, didn't. Those that did know of FF were the ones that maybe played FFII and FFIII for the SNES. But did anyone here actually buy FF1 for their NES back in the 80's? Final Fantasy was non-existant in my country until VII. When I played it I still had my SNES back then and I looked everywhere for FF2 and 3 for the console but they were nowhere to be found and no one had heard of them either. I know a lot of people in this forum are from the US and the UK so I thought I'd find out cos that would be really cool, really experiencing the original.

P.S. by FFII and III I'm referring to the Western releases of IV and VI for the SNES. Just so no one gets confused ;-p

Yes. I had the original for the NES, bought it not long after it came out......that and the Nintendo Power Strategy Guide...

[eestlinc]

Yea, I got FFI for the NES. I had played Dragon Warrior and when I read about Final Fantasy, I had to have it. I lost the cartridge somewhere along the line, but I still have my NES console and some of my other games.

[Freya Coral]

Yes, I have FF for NES! And it still works!

[Flying Mullet]

I bought it when it first came out. I remember it took me about three weeks to beat because it was such an in-depth and complicated game (compared to Dragon Warrior, the only other RPG out for the NES at the time).

[VIVI175]

I ,ve played the rom and theDoS version
