I don't know why everyone wants a remake of VII anyway - the game is still fine as it is.
This. I seriously couldn't stand FF7 spinoffs, or the latest few FF games. If FFXIII is any indication, as far as I'm concerned, if Square tried to remake FF7, give it a shiny new coat of paint, voice overs, crap like that, they couldn't possibly do it justice.
Although I also love FFVIII, so I wouldn't want to see that remade either.
Why not? I agree that consoles games are more valuable, but if a portable title is something I'm going to spend hours and hours playing, I'll dish out for it.
Well, there are some games, I mean, Ocarina of Time, I happily spent $40 on, and most recently Persona Q, which I'm currently playing and enjoying a lot. But for example, Fire Emblem Awakening, I've never played a Fire Emblem game in my life, and even though my friend kept singing praises about it, I still had my hesitations. Luckily I did find it used, and picked it up, and enjoyed it very much.
Plus I get more reward points for buying used, so it's not even that I don't want to spend $40 on games, it's just that I don't see quite as many used 3DS titles as I'd like, and I know that if I did buy them new, I'd find a used copy a few weeks later that I could've saved money on. Lol. It happened way too many times.
With consoles, aside from the stuff that I want right away and preorder, I usually have a much easier time finding used copies, at a discount. It's how I've gotten quite a few of this year's releases.
