The chances of finding a gamer interested in owning Final Fantasy II out of historical curiosity who is simultaneously yet to actually play the game might be problematic for Square-Enix. Once upon a time this was a tricky title to find outside of Japan, but nowadays, thanks to emulation and fan translation, not to mention re-releases on WonderSwan Color, PlayStation, various mobile phones and the GBA (in the form of Dawn of Souls) the chances are that any interested parties already regretfully own this primitive RPG.
Final Fantasy II was an important stepping stone for the series and genre, flaws and all.
How does Final Fantasy II stand by the standards of today? Is it timeless? Or a forgettable entry to an unforgettable franchise?

I will give Square.co 1989 slack since its the first game they created
I'm debating if I buy FF and FF II on PSP....
I have Final Fantasy, Final Fatasy II, and Final Fantasy Tactics for my PSP ... alll of them are fun. The updates they did with FF and FFII really helped me enjoy it better than the originals. Final fantasy Tactics I can't comment on much yet cause I have only loaded it and played the first battle.. Still working on Jeanne D'arc. Which is really fun btw.
