Did anyone actually play this game on the NES?

There's a way to fix that. Instead of button mashing, try thinking about whether the monster is going to die and adjust who attacks who by it.

Well yea, I know that, but it doesn't mean you always get it right...

I played it for PS1 (on Origins) for the first time. Then I played it on the GBA version ever since. No need for the NES, as "Hard Mode" on the PS1 version is just that.

Also had the first Dragon Warrior (now Dragon Quest). I also borrowed Dragon Warrior 4 (which I probably enjoyed more than FF at the time).

w00p!! somebody else who enjoyed Dragon Warrior.

I played FF1 back in the 80's when I was around 8 or 9 but I didn't really understand it back then, I was more into the Batman game

I never played Dragon Warrior though until last year when I bought a used NES and it came with it. In my opinion Dragon Warrior is better than FF1. I wish I could find Dragon Warrior 2 or 3 for a decent price. The NES game catalog I have access to, for which I can order the games, prices 2 and 3 at over 100 dollars each. Just not willing to dish that out for an NES game.

Try eBay. There are usually carts for a reasonable price on there.
