put all the FF pixel remasters on 1 disc/cartridge and i will purchase.
So bizarre that this isn't on console, especially the Switch with it's ARM/Android code base that should mean a simple/quick/cheap port from regular Android.
I mean, they are starting to come around, finally putting FF7 on a Nintendo console after a mere 21-22 years :D
I’d guess that if they release to consoles, Switch will be in the mix one way or another. I find RPGs are well suited to mobile, but the issue is that Final Fantasy games tend not to have the most usable UI, it’s often style over substance - like that FF6 mobile game from a few years ago, or the elements are too small - like FF Tactics, although that was back when the average phone screen was a lot smaller than today..
On the other hand, Dragon Quest has been fantastic.
At last!
Hell yes. My favorite FF.
On a side note the Pixel remasters in general have been pretty damn good. Wish they were available on other platforms as well but I don't mind playing them on PC.
