Alright so basically any FF game before 7 I have never played. Sadly. However I wish to atleast get a chance to play all of them someday. Now my question is dealing with FFVI, or aka FFIII. Alright now is there any differences between the 2 of the remake and the original? And I'm guessing that III is on Super Nintendo? Thanks for the help. Appreciated
 
There are several available options to play FFVI...

SNES NA release as FFIII - This is the one a lot of people originally were exposed to. It's got a very Woosley'd translation, but it's still a lot of people's favorite version.

RPGOne Re-translation - You'll need to use emulation in order to play this fan made re-translation, but if you want the most literal translation, this is the best route. This is based off of the original release, obviously...There are also a LOT of bug fixes available if you choose to go this route...though most of the later versions fixed the major bugs...Even later releases of the SNES cart fixed one of the more well known ones...

FFAnthology - This is basically just a port of the SNES version only with one or two added FMVs (not the best quality for when it was released on PSX, but interesting to see anyways...though you could just YouTube them) and an unlockable beastiary (not really worth it after you've beaten the game)...

FFVI Advance - The GBA game has some added bonus material, a slightly better translation than the original, some very minor things missing that only hardcore fans would likely notice (NO CELES CHAINED UP TO THE WALL SPRITE!?!?), and a couple new character portraits for important NPCs...I'd probably suggest this version above the others (depending on how you feel about emulation)...

BUT!! With the release of FFIII DS & FFIV DS...I'd be mighty surprised if FFVI doesn't eventually get the same treatment...

That has nothing to do with the topic at hand, try reading the posts next time.

Now onto the topic at hand...uh, you really could have just solved your own question with a simple google search. But the general rule of thumb is that the GBA ports always have the most additions, best translations, best graphics. And of course the DS games would take precedence over GBA games.
 
I personally preferred the Anthology Compilation for the PS1 because I was able to play both FFV and FFVI on my PS2. Sure the loading times were not all that great, but being able to play this version of the game on a console unlike the GBA or DS version is a heckuva lot user friendly in my eyes when gaming.
