FFIII on Nintendo DS - Anyone playing?

blueyedsoul · Post by **blueyedsoul** » 22 Jan 2007, 07:30

So I got Final Fantasy III for Christmas from one of my best friends back home. I haven't been playing it a lot yet, but I just learned it has a feature to allow sending messages through the Nintendo Wi-Fi service to friends who also have the game. What's more, you apparently have to do this in order to unlock the best job and gear in the game. So I'm just curious if any other WSGF folks have it and if you'd mind sharing friend codes. As soon as I figure out how to find mine, I'd be happy to post it in response. Thanks!

I have Final Fantasy III, but I do not know my friend code for it; and at the moment I cannot get it because I am currently in Hein's castle - yeah, I have not played the game too much . . . I need to play it more. But I have been obsessed with Advance Wars 1/2 and Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow.

I will post it here soon as I get it.

Other games I have for my DS Lite:

Mario Kart
Yoshi's Island DS
Metroid Prime: Pinball
Star Fox Command
Super Mario 64 DS
New Super Mario Bros

My DS Lite replaced my computer as my gaming platform, since it sucks (specs in my signature).

I am getting a new computer next month, though.

blue,

You're doing it to me again!

First FFXII, now FFIII! :cry:

When FFIII is released in the UK, I'll be playing it. Until then, nope. ;)

Pfft, come on PS - it can't be that much to import a DS game! And from what I understand, they're all region-free. No excuses for you this time :P

I don't own a DS.

The release of FF3 is going to be my catalyst for buying one. :P ;)

Okay, I got out of Hein's castle and so on.

My friend codes is

Thanks for posting Daniel. I figured out how to find mine too. It's 043039773142 in case you or anyone else on this forum want to add me.

I hear ya. It was my catalyst for asking for one for Christmas.

You are welcome; I added you and was going to send you a message . . . but, apparently, both people have to add each other before being able to send messages. Like MSN, I guess.

My catalyst for buying a DS Lite was my lunch breaks at work . . . it was too loud for reading, so I had to do something else. DS Lite was a good choice, i think, because I can also have fun playing it at home . . . not just work.

Weird. I added you and tried to send a message as well, but it's a no go. I'm not a fan of Mognet so far... I guess I'll actually read the directions tonight.

I would if i had a DS
Old school FF are the best RPG's ever made. Those recent FF games with their flashy graphics can't even get close to the good old FF.

FF3 DS is revamped.

When I saw the preview shots a while back, it looked kinda like FF9...

I'm waiting on Panzer Tactics. If that's as good as Advance Wars DS, I'll but a DS Lite for sure.

blueyedsoul · Post by **blueyedsoul** » 29 Jan 2007, 07:18

Also, FF Revenant Wings (the sequel to FFXII) will be released for the DS. I think that's sometime this year supposedly.

Nope.

I sent you a message, blueyedsoul.

If you have not figured it out yet . . . you go to a Mog inside a town, talk to it, go to MogHouse in the list of options then "From Faraway Friends."

How far are you in FFIII? I got my third crystal and flying ship. . . and am now ZOMG WTF STUCK, really. I have tried almost everything. I am almost about to the point where I will have to GameFAQ it, which I hate doing.

Oh, I hate how the messaging system works . . . it takes 218321823821 times as long because they have spaces and periods, commas and so on in a seperate page. They should have made it all on 1 thing or at least have the most common ones with the letters.

For the time it took me to type this entire post, it probably took me 5 times as long just to say, "Hi blueyedsoul, this is DanielTC" on FFIII.

I realized that you have to talk to the moogles, but even after I added you in my friends list, your name was greyed out when I tried to send you a mail. Hopefully it will work now that you've sent one to me - thanks for doing that! I totally agree about the complexity of the messaging system; it stinks! But I also just realized I've not been using the touch screen so I think that will help it go a little more quickly.

I'm not as far as you are in the game, but I don't want to post any spoilers here since I know that would upset PS. Admin aggro = bad! :)

Post by **Paradigm Shifter** » 02 Feb 2007, 21:44

Actually, I'm not greatly bothered about spoilers, as long as they're marked appropriately. :)

Hell, I'd read the script of FFX before I ever played the game. And I've played through the first 8 hours or so of the Japanese version with a friend at the time translating for me as we went... 8)

However, thanks for your thoughfulness, blue. ;)

Not much longer 'til it's released in the UK! :D
