Final Fantasy III was a game that was slated for a North American release but due to the release of the Super Nintendo, both Final Fantasy II and III never made it to our shores. It's really a shame. Where Final Fantasy II experimented with the formula in new and interesting ways, Final Fantasy III really honed it. Of the 8-bit era Final Fantasies, III really stands out as the best of them. The Pixel Remaster is faithful to the original (not the 3D remake that was released on later consoles).

My only complaint about the game is that the better jobs aren't unlocked until really late in the game, meaning that in order to fully take advantage of them you'll need to grind out job levels.
