Now that Ultimate Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster is out on Swap, it signifies that 11 of the 15 (quickly to be 16) mainline video games at the moment are accessible on Nintendo’s hybrid console, a few of them in a number of kinds. That is mad.
Given the sheer breadth of the franchise’s historical past for the reason that launch of the primary sport again in 1987, we think about there are fairly a number of jumping-off factors for followers.

Then again, Alana says she’s performed “the entire mainline video games at this level (besides XI), however my first was Ultimate Fantasy IX on the PlayStation. Don’t fret, it wasn’t too lengthy earlier than I performed a Nintendo-based FF – that was the unique due to the GBA remake”. And eventually, “I began out with a slightly apparent one: Ultimate Fantasy VII,” says Ollie. “I wanted a whole lot of assist from my brother, as a result of my publicity to JRPGs was severely restricted on the time”.
One thing to bear in mind with this one: we have solely included every sport as soon as within the beneath ballot to keep away from any pointless confusion. So for instance, for those who began with the DS remake of Ultimate Fantasy IV, simply select ‘Ultimate Fantasy IV’ from the ballot and maybe depart a remark along with your platform of alternative.
