Seriously, FFIX is one THE BEST entries in the FF series. So why is it so forgotten? Final Fantasy's I-VII have all seen remakes or ports of some kind. FFVIII was ported to PC and it's main character made multiple appearances in the Kingdom Hearts series. FFX has got a sequel (and might get another soon) and been ported twice. FFXI has appeared on multiple platforms and has an enormous lifespan. FFXII has a sequel and is likely for an HD remaster soon. FFXIII is the first FF series to get a trilogy and has already been ported to PC. FFXIV has got an expansion pack and regular updates.

 

...

 

But what about that other one? What has FFIX gotten? Vivi made a VERY brief appearance in KH2 and that's about it. It made cameo appearances, but so did every other game, which leaves IX as the official most forgotten FF ever... I really want a PS4 remake, or AT LEAST a PC/PS4 remaster.

You actually do. X/X-2 HD only happened because Toriyama & Kitase approved it.

XII HD will only be happening because Ito approved it.

...I don't think they'd ask the guy who drew the monsters in FF5/6 permissions to remake the games

Toriyama is the scenario writer and event director of FFX. He has more say. Kitase was the producer

...actually, speaking of Kitase, he's the director of FF6, so why didn't you say him? Makes WAAAAAY more sense than Nomura

(he's also the secnario writers and event planner for both ff5 AND 6, quite a resume, that guy)

Didn't mean permissions, just that I'm sure Nomura could easily serve as art director or supervisor and ask around and get it green-lit.

 

Of course, you can ask Kitase and Ito too. I was just making a point, he's asking for a remake of a 15 year old game when games over 20 years old would make more sense.

the context was Npmura forgetting his franchises though, FF5 and 6 definitely aren't hism which was the point

Well whatever the point is, Ito is too busy with XVI and XII HD to worry about a game that is still playable on modern hardware perfectly fine.

He was an artist on them and has expressed interest in remaking them.

Seriously? For PS4?

LOL. No. Just in general. Could be for the NX for all we know. Lol.

NX doesn't sound any less far fetched than PS4.

Even though we don't know anything about it. Lol.

Final Fantasy IX is one of those games that fans appreciated better over time. Should it have better recognition? Sure, but it is generally perceived nowadays, by ACTUAL fans, as one of the best (if not the best) Final Fantasy games. The fans of the time were ignorant towards the game because it didn't have a dark and angsty male lead like VII and VIII did. Honestly, actual complaints I've heard about IX are that it is too "kiddy looking" which pretty much sums up a large part of the FF fanbase.

 

While others will enjoy IX immensely, there will always be those who simply prefer other titles in the series. IX doesn't need to be remade it just need to be made available on PS4 (like all the other PSone Classics).
