I seriously question if this guy played any game BEFORE the next gen stuff came out. He's obviously never played or seen the original game then, seeing how bad he bashes it.

The game didn't need a spectacular plot or deep characters, it was just a good game with the little amount they could fit on the NES for the time, and worked out very well. Was my favorite of the NES generation games.

If that guy wants hard he should play FFII NES, no cheats and no emulator saves. Now THAT's a hard and annoying game to play.
