Can someone help me understand why IX is so beloved? I loved that game... for the first hour only. Then it slowly fell apart.
For me its mostly the characters and the world design. The story is also very good and well paced.
And Chocobo Hot 'n' Cold is one of the best mini games in any FF game.
@JaxonH >> I'd skip FFX-2 though. It's pretty much agreed upon that it's not that good.
I'd argue that people think X-2 is different, not that it's bad. It's not what many people are looking for in a FF game. And you better like the main three characters, because you are going to be spending a lot of time with them.
What appeals to me about X-2 is the theme. "OK, you saved the world, now what?"

I have never played a Final Fantasy game. I know people have already asked this question "Where should I start?" before, but that's not what I want to ask. What I do want to ask is if Crystal Chronicles is good enough of a starting point? Does it have advanced features only Final Fantasy fans would know? I have too much on the backlog to go for the other games, but do want to play/try-out Crystal Chronicles multiplayer. It works in 2-player right?
Actually, another question, is XII a fine enough starting point for the main series? Since its the first one coming to the Switch, I need to know if I should pick it up immediately or wait for Seven/Nine/Ten-Ten2.
Also, I know people hate XIII, but do you think it has a chance of coming to the Switch? Would be cool to have as many as possible here, even if it isn't a must-play.
God so many questions. Sorry, I'm just a bit of a Final Fantasy noob.
People might think I'm childish for my picture, and I am.

I bought the Vita version just because you get to explore some of the old FF worlds from previous games.
Don't care about anything else cos it looks a bit dumb.
So all of these got announced but... did we ever get a release date or anything? I was kinda pumped about getting them...
World of Final Fantasy released digitally last month, while its physical release is in February.
Everything else is TBA 2019, with physical preorders open for FFX&X-2 and FFXII.
Switch Physical Collection - 1,241 games (as of March 23rd, 2024)

@Dezzy Definitely not emulation, these are the same modern ports that are on PS4 / PC. There's no way they're getting a PS2 emulator up and running well enough on the Switch to sell for just a couple games. Considering we already have confirmation that XII has the updates from the modern version, I'd say it's pretty much guaranteed they all will be from that batch of releases.
