Hey you guys,this is starwars293. This time,i'm reviewing Final Fantasy 3 for the NES and the remake for the DS. I have played the DS version,but not the NES version. I have seen some gameplay footage of it on Youtube. I'm impressed that it's pretty good. This is a fun game to play,but it's also hard for both NES and DS version.

 Both of these games are different a little bit. In the NES version,when you attack with just swords,the attack damage is pretty low. In the remake,it would depend on your level and weapon you use. In the NES,the only weapon that can do over 2000 damage is the Shuriken. I also know another weapon that does alot of damage,but you need the Onion Knight job in order to use it. That weapon is the Onion Sword.

 The weapons,well there are pretty good weapons. You start of with weapons with less attack and later on during your adventure,you get better weapons with better attack. There are also shields,armor,gloves and helms for defense.If I were you,I would got defensive against enemies and monsters.You would also need to go offence though,so yeah.

 Man this game is really hard! Mostly the Final Boss though. I won't tell you who the boss is though. Play the game and find out who. Most of the bosses are pretty hard,and three of them are just optional bosses. However,there are some ways that you need to get to them. In the remake,they added an extra boss. You need to do something in order to unlock him(can't remember how,i'll leave a post below if I remember). That boss is really hard! Even harder than the final boss. The bosses also have weaknesses. You need a certain spell or a certain job in order to find out their weakness.

 The characters,well there are only four main characters in the game. The NES version,they're just nameless orphans. The DS version,there names are Luneth,Arc,Refia and Ingus. You start with Luneth in the DS version. In the NES,you start with the four. You can name them if you want to. 

 There are airships and ships in this game. You don't use your first ship until you complete something that you have to do. Once you finish it,you can use it. You can pretty much get an airship before you get a ship. You just have to help the villages and castle and this person named Cid. You have to find his airship in a desert near a village(there are two villages,I won't tell the names though,you need to find out yourself). Once you find the airship,you also meet Refia and later,she joins your party. That's all I can tell you about right now. Now it's time to rate this game

Graphics-NES: The graphics are pretty good. There are some good death scenes and other scenes. The attack animations are also pretty good. I am impressed

                  DS: These graphics are also great. The 3D makes it look like it's real. They also made better attack animation. 


Sound-NES: Oh my god! The sound and music are awesome and catchy. You could pretty much get it stuck in your head like how you can get Party Rock Anthem stuck in your head.

              DS: The sound is bit better than the NES one. The final boss theme is really catchy. Even the main boss theme is catchy.Almost the entire soundtrack has catchy themes.


Addictivness:NES: I would play it again if I were you. It is a pretty good game and a challenging game.

                        DS: Same with the NES. It's also a good game a bit more challenging than the NES version


Story-NES: Four orphans are on a quest to save the world from darkness after they have been told they were the legendary Warriors of the Light. Now they have to defeat the darkness and save the world. They get help from some people they meet during their quest. They must also find the legendary Crystals of Light that grants them job classes that will help them.

           DS: Four orphans named Luneth,Arc,Refia and Ingus,are on a quest to save the world from the darkness. They get help from a few people they meet on the way. They also get help from the Crystals of Light which lets the heroes have job classes which will help them on their quest.

Depth-NES: It offers some catchy theme,some hidden and optional bosses and some cool stuff like airships.

             DS: Offers wi-fi,a new hidden boss,the three optional bosses and airships and ships


Difficulty-NES: It is really hard,as hard as the remake. One boss does lots of damage though,so it makes it as hard as the remake

                 DS: Man,this game is really hard. The final boss has a One-hit KO move. You have to be careful,so yeah


Wrap things up-Final Fantasy 3 is a great and hard game. I would play the NES and the DS version,go try it out. You'll like it

This has been a starwars293
Thank you for reading my review
starwars293

I've never really looked into the game itself, but it looks pretty cool. I might go ahead and check it out sometime when I have time.

Nice job reviewing. Good start on your job.

pacman1755 : Thanks man. Also buy the remake and compare the difference between those two games

I have not played the game itself, but from what you said, it looks nice. I might have to go and try it out sometime.

I think that the review itself looks impressive... nice job!

Overall, I liked the review. I do however have one little concern. The review was supposed to be over the NES version, and feel I read more about the DS version. Now, because you didn't assign this to the game's page, it really isn't an issue. But when you make reviews that you plan to assign as the main review for the game's page, make sure that it talks about that game and not about other versions. Again, that really is only an issue for the reviews you plan to assign to the game's page. For those that you do not intend to do that with, comparing it is no issue. Good job

I hate to break this to ya but you can go past 2000 damage, since shields don't block attacks much instead i just take the damage to gain attack power, dual wielding shurikens at a high level could get you 9999 damage, same thing for onion swords, except you need a even higher level, dual wielding onion swords and wearing onion gloves as a onion knight grants 15+ to strength, agility, and vitality, so you will get big hp bonuses at level ups , single wielding with or without a shield is a big pain, I suggest shields should be dual wielded by a viking who should provoke the enemy to take the hits, still two-headed dragon is a hard fighter and even a lvl99 feok (fully equiped onion knight) can still be hit 5000 damage to them even if they do defend, halved if they are dual weilding shields, or so iv'e been told :-

Nice review man! I can tell you put a lot of time in this very good job!
