Square Enix is considering remakes of the wonderful Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy VI games for Nintendo DS, but cites technical challenges it must overcome. Andriasang translated some tweets from producer Shinji Hashimoto, who said:
For FF5 and 6, there are technical issues as well, so at present these are also undecided.
Man, I would love remakes of FFV and FFVI. They’re two of may favorite games of all time. Versions with spruced up graphics, slightly streamlined gameplay (you don’t mess with excellence), and tighter translations would be phenomenal. While remaking these games for the Nintendo DS makes the most sense (the installed base is ridiculous), for some reason I’m wishing for iPhone versions of these games.
How about you? Are you down with improved versions of Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy VI?
I'm still stuck in XIII…
I would most definitely pick these up. I have FF1-3 for the DS. I downloaded FF1 for my iphone but i don't like it as much as the DS.
I'd be interested in these for the DS. I have some of the other remakes (Cecil is the best) and was very impressed.
Technical issues = no funding? lol
I would kill to have a FF VI remake. It is my fave of all time.
