    Boco Squenix muses over FFV remake on DS...

    So yes... it looks like Squenix has been thinking about doing remake for FFV and VI for the DS but due to technology restraints it ain't happening. Maybe they will either look towards the PSP or 3DS for the extra oomph needed to make these happen.

    I hope so, seeing V in 3D would be awesome. I wonder what the problem is though, IV and V didn't look that different from each other on SNes. It's probably Gilgamesh, the DS can't handle that level of awesome.

    either that or the flair of the Blue Mage would cause the DS to implode

    Personally, I'd prefer it if they made FFV in a style other than in the style that FF3 and FF4 were made in. I don't feel like the FF3 and FF4 remakes really improved the original games by making them 3D. You still viewed the character from a top-down view, so how you perceived the areas didn't really change. FFV has a particularly large amount of areas where your view of the character is obstructed by the environment, but based on what you can see, you can guess where it is that you're supposed to walk. I'm not sure if this would work quite as well with the FF3-FF4 DS style. FFV also has many areas that involve implied depth. Because of this, I think it would be better for the remake of FFV's style to be based around one of the higher numbered FF games.

    (SPOILER)My personal dream is to see it FFXII style, but that's not happening.

    Dude, that is exactly what I think! I agree witth you 110%
    When we dance, it looks just like Fire.

    When we sing, it sounds the same tone.

    I don't if I really like or really dislike this idea. :/

    If they can maintain the game's humorous tone, I'd give it a try.

    Lol, that is exactly the opposite of what I would want. The reason I loved FF3&4 DS was because they kept the style the same. It was a breath of fresh air to play something like that again, only better.
    If they remade FFV as FFXII style instead it would probably shorten my lifespan by a year or two.

    That sort of sucks if it's not going to be on the DS, I don't think I'm going to buy any handheld device for quite a while.

    I hope that if they do remake it for the PSP they release it has an actual game and not a downloadable one.

    As a physical console I love the PSP and loathe the DS, so making the switch would be great for me. Only problem is that with the smaller install base I would assume sales projections would be lower than if it was on the DS. So the amount of resources dedicated to the project would probably be lessened.

    Seeing Dissidia really got me hooked on the idea of seeing FFV and FFVI done with character models similar to what we got in that game.
