Final Fantasy IV Advance overview
Final Fantasy IV Advance synopsis
Unflinching, blind loyalty to authority or desire does not absolve the soul from moral anguish - or from the maleficence within the heart. Despite the capacity for redemption in the penitent, as long as there are those willing to embrace evil, the darkness persists, feeding on the implacable thirst for power. And the power of the crystals is the perfect means to achieve an unthinkable goal.
Version Information
Final Fantasy IV arrives on Game Boy as what could be interpreted as a move by Square Enix to bring its classic SNES titles to a new audience. The game sports 12 playable characters with new abilities, quests, towns, dungeons and other extras. See the original
Final Fantasy IV for more in-depth coverage.

- E3 2007 - Square Enix to bring online store stateside
In addition to its E3 lineup announcement, Square Enix has revealed its scheme to open a North American online store. Square Enix, as a self-described "premiere [maker] of high end-collectibles" plans to stock a multitude of "popular and hard-to-find items" including Master Arms, Play Arts, and Mechanical Arts spanning various series, from Final Fantasy to Kingdom Hearts. Clearly, Square Enix has seen that someone, somewhere is making money selling its products. The immediate consequence will likely find many third-party vendors competing for profits with Square Enix itself. The Online Store
- An E3 2006 approaches. Command?
Square Enix's lineup for this year has 14 HP and a lot of mana to spare. Oh, and there's a new title for Seiken Densetsu IV... Link
- Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy VI heading for GBA; Final Fantasy III DS lives
Nintendo's WiFi press conference in Japan today revealed some interesting developments for the DS online service, but the funkiest of them all (and this news article isn't even THE funkiest, see below) included announcements that, yes, indeed, Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy VI are in fact going to appear on Game Boy Advance at some point in the TBA future. Rejoice! Also, gaming news website Gpara reports that Final Fantasy III DS is alive and well and fully polygonal.
- First screenshot of Final Fantasy IV on GBA; FFV and FFVI to follow?
Gamefront has a preliminary screenshot of the recently announced Final Fantasy IV for GBA, which showcases a marginal improvement in graphics (including character portraits in dialogue windows) as was present in FFI&II: Dawn of Souls earlier this year. The scan is from the same issue which had the pictures of Children of Mana and Seiken Densetsu 4, and Gamefront mentions that FFIV will be appearing as part of a "Final Fantasy Projects" on Game Boy, presumably indicating that more such ports are on the way in the future.
