One of the things I had always wished to do in the original FFIV was to get some say in who was in my party. This game allowed you to choose your party for the final dungeon and added some great extra content and I really appreciate it for that!
For that reason I really really wanted to like it but unfortunately there were some slight glitches that killed it for me. The ATB would occasionally (read: often) glitch out and give a turn to the wrong character, and there was some slowdown in battles (this wouldn't normally be a problem, but the game actually ignores button commands that you input during slowdown frames). This was a constant source of annoyance for me, and this was made worse by the fact that it's a fast-paced ATB game.
Evidently these glitches didn't bother other people as much, so your mileage may vary.

Hmm I'll give it a try! I feel like this game without the glitches would be the definitive port (DS is more of a remake)
Hopefully it works out! I've not tried it myself but that's what I've heard.
I believe there's also a mod that restores the music to more closely resemble the SNES original!

AFAIK it fixes a bunch of glitches.
