Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Final Fantasy IV DS Preview on Gametrailers - Much More Than a Port

Nazn: So you're saying the GBA's "Well, I learn slow, but at least I never give up" is better than "Well, I learn slow, but I eat fast!". That wasn't my only complaint with people somehow thinking the translation is all better (Some parts are, that's true.)

Also, for some reason in the Opera, with the Advance Version, I seem to question why a direct translation Japanese to English would Rhyme in English.

But, on the first RPG I beat note, of course I'll be buying it. Hell, even if it was just the remake with 3d graphics and nothing new... I'd be buying it, but you always remember your first.

Er... joke question?  Of course that's a more accurate translation.  It's already been said that FFVI's SNES translation was poorly done, and altered many lines and personalities that weren't the original artist's intent.  FFVI on GBA restored those to the original Japanese dialogue as much as possible.  I already had this argument with you once I believe... the fact is that no matter which one you like better, the GBA version is the correct translation.

I think i'm going to skip on this game. From the preview i just can't seem to connect with the characters and feel nothing for them. I also had the same feeling with FF3 on the DS and FF3/FF6 on the SNES, and FF12 on the PS2. I really hope a great RPG comes out that i can get into, because it looks like FF13 is not going to come out anytime soon.

 This trailer shows better character developement.

 

 



I hope this game is still easy to find about a year from now. Hell, I'm still playing TWEWY and have Rondo of Swords unopened, FFTA2, and EO 2 on the way. I played the GBA remake back in 06 so I think I can wait.

Looks very good. This was my first game to get me into jRPGs, so I'm excited.

I'm really hoping for a voice acted version of the "spoony bard" line.

Oh yeah, Rydia FTW.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

BTW, the title is way off. It isn't a port in any sense. It's a remake.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

The title is Gametrailers' own subtitle for the video in the topic.



Nazn - Correct I agree with.

Always better I do not. Definitely seems to be a shame when some quips that fit characters extremely well are removed because the original version had a much worse line in it's place?

It's not "You're growing up too fast" it's "12? I'll wait a few years!".

Seriously? They took out Ultros quip for a crappy line, and they made Edgar a pedophile joke. Couldn't they at least attempt to make it the best they could?

Also, yes, this is a repeat. Hooray!



See Ya George.
