Owch, that's way too much, even if they ARE the remakes. $5 each would be pushing it for the platform.

Hmmmm...$9.00 isn't a terrible amount depending on what systems you own. Supposedly the controls are good (Yay! iPod Touch game with good controls ) but the difficulty has shrunken down and you level faster, that kind of thing. If you were put off previous ones by high difficulty this is probably good, but I don't see why a huge FF fan would want downsized difficulty. O.o
These versions are the PSP versions with revised touch controls and graphics fit for the iPhone screen. The best thing about these versions is the quick save system. All you have to do is hit the Home button and a quick save is made automatically. You'll restart from the last spot on the World Map, town or dungeon you were in at the time. This also makes the game that much easier since you can skip annoying battles by hitting home and resuming from the same spot where you encountered the battle. The worst part is what's new, the touch controls. It just makes things take longer to do than if you were using a controller. The touch screen is spotty. You need a firm tap to confirm what it is you want to do. This works fine for Final Fantasy since you choose all four adventurers actions at the beginning of every turn. I only bought Final Fantasy as I'm afraid the battles may be too frustrating on Final Fantasy II. Plus I own every version released here in the US of both games anyway. I hope my impressions help in your potential buying decision.

typical case of Square Enix being nothing but fecesbags. I think they're actively trying to piss off as much of the downloadable-gaming world as possible...

The battles in Final Fantasy II (as in, the real FFII, not the American FFII, which is actually Final Fantassy IV), are exactly the same format as in Final Fantasy. You select the whole team's actions before the battle itself starts. I think you've got it confused with FFIV, which uses the ATB system.
It really saddens me that people still are not able to make the distinction between Final Fantasy II and IV. Simply because the Americans originally got the numbers messed up. There's been a few million versions of FFII since - the chronology is no longer stuck in the 90s.
I didn't confuse FF II with FF IV. I did think FF II (not IV) had an active time battle system hence my assumption of impending frustration with battles in the iPhone version of FF II.
