I'm mildly interested since it's the only oldschool FF I've never played.

I have only played FFIV Advance and FFX, but if I get anything like as much play out of FFIII DS as FFIV Advance I will be more than happy.

Yeah this is the only FF I haven't played in English as well. I have the Jap Famicom cart somewhere but being able to play it in english will be awesome.

Agreed. Although I only tried II long enough to see what it looked like.

I have a patched cart of FFIII for the NES so I have played it through in English, but this new DS version looks like it will have much more story. I'm buying this.

I'm not too happy about this myself... I was seriously hoping they'd release FF3 for the GameBoy Advance with It's original graphics and improved english translation

I saw a cinema of it, the graphics were astounding.

In-game graphics...eh, not so much.

I'm interested in it, but I doubt I'll get it. Not enough time for RPGs anymore.
