When I say "nintendo games", I actually mean games that nintendo had a hand in developing/publishing. There was a time when Nintendo platforms were the primary option i.e NES and SNES eras so anyone who played games in that time period was likely to discover  interests on their platforms. To be fair though, I developed my interests on PS1, the same cosole that truly got me into gaming. While FF may have been introduced on the NES, it doesn't sit well with me to give nintendo credit for the interest in those games instead of Squaresoft. One could even make the argument that those games didn't gain blockbuster status till they hit the ps1 and then thank Sony instead. Most of the credit you give to nintendo simply come as a result of getting there first.

Slightly off topic, slightly on, but.

As far as i'm concerned, there hasn't been a good final fantasy since the Square - Enix merger.

I'd agree whole-heartedly there. I was genuinely angry with Final Fantasy 13, and who's bright idea was it to make, not one, but two MMO's? Seriously? Why!?!

I'm tentatively looking forward to Final Fantasy 15, it could be good, but honestly I've considered the name little more than a shell for years. Final Fantasy 11 is called 'Lost Odyssey', and Final Fantasy 12 is called 'The Last Story', you'll find them on the Xbox 360 and Wii respectively. It's a pity Squaresoft 2.0, or Mistwalker as they prefer to be called, are such a small company, as they've been stuck producing mobile games for iOS for the last 2 years and don't publicly have any projects in the works. The minute they do though, I'll be on it like a hawk.
