The effervescent Final Fantasy franchise began its hard run into fame in 1987 when Square Enix introduced this world of magic and mystery to the role play gaming world on the Nintendo Entertainment System.

It has become one of the most ported series in history, seeing action on virtually every format, with original games being reworked repeatedly for newer consoles. The most recent release would be Final Fantasy IV: The Complete Collection, which went to market in March of 2011 in Japan and in April in North America and Europe…all for the PSP.

Still, Square isn’t done. Of course, the spin off games, Kingdom of Hearts and Mana, are also being redone, revamped, reworked and redistributed, but Square still has some great FF action for the retro gamer looking at modern devices.

In 2006, gamers were able to pick up the original Final Fantasy III game for the Nintendo DS. While the original was a 1990 release, the newer mod was actually reasonably well-received over 15 years later, so Square is pushing the envelope yet again. On April 21, 2011, Square gave Final Fantasy III to the iPad. This version further improves on the graphic display and also includes some platform specific original content…stuff you won’t find on the iPhone or iPod Touch versions.
