Thread: FFII - NES or PSP

    Default FFII - NES or PSP

    I started playing both the NES translation and the PSP version of the game, and personally, i can't decide which one to play. What do you guys think I do?

    I would say to get the PSP version, because of the fact that in that version, stats dont decrease when you're focusing on raising a certain one. However, if you want a challenge, then play the NES version

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    Neither. The best version of the game is the PlayStation remake.

    I thought the PSP version had all that was in the PSX remake, plus the Soul of Rebirth dungeons (mediocre, you said) and revised graphics. Why's the PSX remake better in your opinion? (I need to choose what to play for the April month challenges )

    The main reason is that the PSP version's graphics are as ugly as sin.

    Dawn of Souls xD

    Seriously though, most people hate this game no matter how you play it. Pick whichever one seems easiest on your sanity and make a valiant attempt

    I appreciate that it gave way to the PlayStation version, but by itself? No, not so much, Allison.

    Hummm, I liked a lot the FF I PSP graphics, so I think I'm gonna like this one, but... with a grain of salt.

    Out of the original three games, II was the only one that really lent itself to a remake in my opinion. Play the NES version if you absolutely MUST have the NES flavor... But the upgrades (graphics, addition of cutscenes, better gameplay balance) mades to the PSP version will do a better job of drawing you into the game.

    Only did GBA and PSP ones, so PSP FTW!
