I bought and played this game on my 8 bit NES when it first came out.  It was the most expensive game NES had at the time at $75.  It was and still is my favorite game on that platform.  I played a few of the FF games that came out afterwards but they weren't as fun as the first.  The main thing that I hated about subsequent versions was that the story lines got way too convoluted and the game did a lot of automatic stuff that kept you from actually playing the game.  This first game had none of that and I liked having my Characters throughout the game instead of having characters come and go at will.  I also remember the first time I played this game I actually felt a sense of accomplishment after defeating Chaos because I had put in a lot of hours playing the game.  I got every pennies worth of that original $75 investment.  I highly recommend this game to anyone who likes RPG's.  I guarantee it will keep you entertained for quite awhile.
