According to SQUARE (Final Fantasy’s Creators), they planned to have their next-gen Final Fantasy on Nintendo’s 64-bit console in early 1996. Different people said that the game would have a simultaneous launch in America and Japan. SQUARE experimented with the CGI capablities of the machine. This famous video often know as “Final Fantasy 64″ was not a real game running on the Nintendo 64 hardware, but just a tech demo running on powerful PCs, with three-dimensional characters based on Final Fantasy 6.

Square should have made FFVII using this engine for N64…

So this was never released?
Hmm….. <:-/
It sure is troublesome trying to figure out what’s real and what’s not.
And it’s inconvenient since not even the regular games are on the market anymore…

I know Shadow’s good at throwings and all. But that was a touch ridiculous.

Besides Shadow, the other two actually look somewhat like Brian and Princess Flora of Quest 64. Maybe the two Quest characters were inspired from that design?

Man, I bet it pissed off a LOT of people that this didn’t get made, just like MOTHER/Earthbound 64.

Did you read the Article Triple A’s? It wasnt a game, just a test of the hardware.

hey The Triple A’s mother 3 its out now, and has a translation to almost all languages, search for the GBA rom, its better that it was delayed from the N64 because lets face it, Mother its not for 3D

dunno why this has got no play on the net but there actually was a port of ff1 to the n64. sakaguchi mentioned it in an interview in the last year of the old egm. they literally ported it to the system to see how it would play, then scrapped it. no idea if it was in full 3d or just emulated on the n64. peace.
