Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobile
That's pretty cool. Final Fantasy is one of the few NES games I don't mind going back to and playing again. Hopefully this means Square-Enix will be bring more of their games to the VC now.

Yeah there's FFV and FFVI on GBA and a couple on the DS that they remade in 3D but I don't really care too much on how the 3D ones look on DS and I'd kind of prefer playing the games on the TV instead anyways so for the prices they charge on VC games I'd rather get those versions instead.

There are remakes for FF 1 & 2 on the GBA called Final Fantasy: Dawn of Soul (the FFII remake features one of the best bonus dungeons they've ever done). And then there's ports with bonus dungeons for FF IV, V, and VI. In this case I think FFV was the best one in regards to all the bonus info.

Is the FF 1 & 2 GBA remakes the same as the PSP version because that one look very cool with the beefed up graphics. Putting in bonus dungeons in the ports was a pretty nice inclusion.

Yes and the PSP versions even have extra bonus dungeons on top of the ones that were found in the GBA ones. Not sure how interesting those dungeons are though. There is a point where they probably get a little tiresome. But I can vouch for the quality of the ones in the GBA versions.
The original bonus dungeons in FF1 contained bosses from other Final Fantasy games so it was kind of cool to see them in action, and in FF2 the bonus dungeon was a perfect compliment to the story. It fit the story so well that you'd think it was originally included.
