No idea, but I hope it's for a console rather than a handheld. VI is so grand, it deserves a big budget remake.

PS1 version....well I did before I scratched the disc, never got to finish it, don't have a DS.

I rather see a remake of GoldenEye on the Wii.

And what's the difference between the rights Nintendo has on GoldenEye and the rights Sony has on FFVII if any? Rare was a second-party back then....

Next-gen handhelds I think. And since FFVI only matters in Japan whatever handheld leads there will get it.

But then again, it's nearly impossible for a Nintendo handheld to not be successfull in Japan so it's pretty much safe to say that FFVI remake is heading to DS2 (or whatever it is gonna be called)

They basically reworked the entire way the game played with the introduction of the Augment system and thei ncreased importance of status magic. The introduction of voice acting (high quality stuff, too, in the same neighborhood as FFXII) was just icing on the cake.

It was well worth making, much less buying.

EDIT:

@Rei:

Hey now, FF6 on the SNES sold nearly a million stateside! Not comparable to the latter installments, sure, but it was still a very, very successful game.

Sony did publish FFVII. Who knows what they own or don't own.

Square published it in Japan, and (funnily enough) Eidos published the Windows version. I'd bet my balls that Sony doesn't own one inch of FFVII.

I am not saying they do. I am just saying they MAY. Also if they made it PS3 only, would you buy a PS3?

Being that FF 6 is the best in the series I'd love to se it get a big budget meake on one of the 3 big consoles. Enough SNES direct ports thanx.

No, I would probably just buy the game and play it on the PS3 I already own.
