Retro FF to Wii - but only original translations

March 25, 2009

Retro Final Fantasy titles are heading to the Wii's Virtual Console service, but despite modern retranslations of all six NES and SNES FF titles already existing thanks to various remakes, the USA and Western markets will only get the games translated for them back in the day.

This means Final Fantasy I, IV and VI will be released on the Western Virtual Console as Final Fantasy I, II and III respectively, but the real II, III and V will remain in limbo for Wii fans.

Hopefully one day in the near future Square Enix will decide to release English translations of the classics on Virtual Console.
