Compelling and classic role playing game that's among the best the Super Nintendo system has to offer

Final Fantasy III is a game that I have been fascinated by ever since it was released in the early 90s, but never got to own a copy of it until now. It is, in my opinion, one of the most detailed, exciting, and compelling RPG games from the SNES era -- pretty much on par with The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past in my humble opinion. This game follows the war between an evil empire, led by Gestahl with his more than a bit cuckoo general Kefka and a resistance movement known as the Returners. When Gestahl's Magitek armored shock-troops lead a mind-controlled girl to seek out a frozen Esper (magical beings from a neighboring dimension that has been sealed away for centuries), a chain of events is started. Terra Branford is soon awakened and slowly learns of her origins and powers, allying with a host of other heroic figures including treasure hunter with a heart of gold, Locke, the suave inventing king of Figaro, Edgar, his muscle-bound fighter of a brother, Sabin, rebellious and pure-hearted Magitek Knight, Celes, and more. The graphics are excellent as far as 16-bit ones go, the musical score is top-notch, the plot is compelling, and the gameplay mechanics are simple to learn. I highly recommend this game and agree with others who have declared it to be one of the most iconic RPG games of all time!Read full review

The greatest Final Fantasy of them all!

This game not only is gorgeous for the SNES, it's also my all time favorite FF next to FFVIII.

The characters are good, they all share the same importance, they all feel equal.

I'm not a big fan of active time battle, but in this title it's not too intrusive, and the mechanic of grinding espers to learn magic and feats, is probably the ancestor to FFIX grinding equipment to get feats.

The story is great, sinking into really dark events and raising back from an antagonist that becomes so powerfull it become omniscient and allmighty!

Definitely the best FF entry of the whole serie, the best vilain too!

Must have for any SNES collectors, especially the RPG fans!

Masterpiece

This is more than just a game. It's a work of art. Square knocked it out of the park. With some of the best music on the snes, one of the best villains I can think of, and memorable characters all throughout, final fantasy III is really a master-class in how to make a good jrpg in 2D. It's a must own for any super Nintendo fan. Even if rpgs aren't your thing, final fantasy III is a great place to start because it's the quintessential jrpg.Read full review

Great condition, and a Authentic Copy!

Great game. It is a analog 90s game. So for best picture quality, and best performance. You would want either a CRT or a GAMING analog to HDMI adapter box to use on your LCD TV . I would recommend Retrotink.Read full review

They just don't make them like this anymore.

The headline says it all, for those whom have never played played this game on the SNES this is a must if you consider yourself a fan of JRPGS or RPGs in general.

Modern developers of games have lost sight of what made games great, you can spend 60 on a modern game and you will find things to complain about, I remember playing this game back in the 90's and every time I find myself playing a newer game I always think back to this game and chrono trigger.

When you play this game your allowed to name the characters and their is no voice acting so you get to develop a personal attachment to the characters as you get to use your imagination to fill in the blanks of those characters. I truly wish they still made games on the SNES or made them like this on the modern consoles.

I highly suggest that you buy this game and play it and you cannot be disappointed, you will find yourself captured by a group of characters unlike anything you've felt before and find yourself falling in love with them and the quests they lead you on. Be prepared to find yourself wanting more games like this and finding a new love in the old retro games on yester year.

Excellent all around

This game is simply a classic. Playing this after so many years has brought back numerous waves of nostalgia. The graphics were clean, the game play didn't glitch, I am VERY happy with this.

Great game, all in working order

There was a bit of discoloration on the game cartridge itself, but the game works perfectly.
Final Fantasy III (AKA Final Fantasy VI) is a treasure and any fan of the genre or final fantasy series needs to have it in their collectionRead full review

Glad I bought this.

I owned this game, when it came out originally. But it got lost, through out the years. I’m glad I bought this again. It’s become a happy part of my growing snes collection.
