I think the major beef here is all of us are FF fans and would love to play FFIII. But, most of us don't have a DS and don't want to buy one just to play FFIII. Additionally, it doesn't really make sense for them to put it on a DS as the major audience for FF games is already playing FF games on the PS1/2 platform. The origin of FF being with nintendo is really an irrelavant argument as their major customer base is on the Sony platform.
