SNES or GBA version?

i just recently heard of the GBA version, but i was wondering if it was worth buying for the additional features, or if i should just stick with the old SNES rom? i havent played this game in a couple years, and i was thinkin about picking it back up.

so, should i stick with the SNES rom, or fork up for the GBA version and have a blast on my DS?

I would stick with the ROM unless you really need to have it for the DS. I would only suggest buying the game if you had never played it before.

I'd buy the game, ROMs just don't do the buisness compared to the real thing IMO.

Well supposedly the GBA one is going to have extra dungeons so if you are willing to spend your money for a few dungeons...

GBA one has extra dungeons from what i have heard along with a few more espers but i don't like it when they port the snes ones so i'm not going to bother since i'm currently replaying the jap snes version translated by RPGOne.

I'd definitely buy it for GBA. A computer isn't as easy to carry around as a game boy, and its only like, 30 bucks. Plus if it sells well it shows SE that the older fans of the FF series are willing to buy remakes of their game as well as younger kids willing to experience them, hopefully spurring ps3 or handheld remakes of the PSOne FFs

I just like the GBA one because of the portibility, for it being one of the best FF games, and never able to play it on the SNES.

I don't own the GBA version so I'd have to go old school with the SNES.
