    Default Differences Between SNES and GBA

    I have finally got around to playing the Gameboy version of Final Fantasy VI, After doing a quick search and not finding any results I have decided to ask if there are any major differences in terms of gameplay and extra features between the SNES version and the Gameboy Advance versions as I don't want to miss any major parts or new features in the game.

    Aside from a re-translation, the biggest differences are:
    • Four new espers in the WoR.
    • A new dungeon, called the Dragon's Den, which is available after you beat the game.
    • New super equipment for some party members in the Dragon's Den.
    • A "super battle", called the Soul Shrine, which is available after you complete the Dragon's Den.

    The scene where Celes is being beat up and interogated by the guards in south figaro is censored so theyre just questioning her byt thats not really an extra feature.

    Some of the more provocative sprites in the japanese snes version were censored for the english snes version, i think the original sprites have been placed back in so you can see more of goddess' sexy thighs

    I'll have to look out for the new espers, and equipment.

    the new espers are available later in the game so no need to scrounge around for them at the begining

    So even in the later part of the game there is no way I could miss any of them and not be able to get them before completing the game?

    Correct. They are all available in the WoR and there is no way to pass any of them up, so you can obtain them at your leisure.

    It's also possible to beat Dragon's Den before beating the main story, but even though the Soul Shrine is revealed, you won't be able play it, until you win the main story.

    Also if you use Relm, and you should, she doesn't glitch anymore and delete your saves.
