Final Fantasy 1 was released in both Japan and the US. It was called just "Final Fantasy" in both countries. It did not sell all that well in the US though, so Final Fantasy 2 and 3 were never released in the US. Note that the real Final Fantasy 2 and 3 were NES games, not SNES games. Final Fantasy 4 was the first one released on the SNES. It was renamed Final Fantasy 2 in the US since the real 2 and 3 were never released in the US. I'm not sure if Final Fantasy 4 didn't sell well in the US or what, but for some reason Final Fantasy 5 was not released in the US.

adjl 06/25/18 12:13:26 PM #12:	It doesn't have a subtitle, but there's no 1, and they don't call Sacred Stones FE2. It's actually kind of odd that it doesn't have a subtitle, since even FE1 had one, but I guess they didn't want to confuse the "are Marth and Roy in this game?" crowd by calling it anything more complicated. --- This is my signature.

Its not that it didnt sell well, its more that by the time it was translated FFIII was already out in Japan and they didnt want to follow Enixs lead so they just translated the next one instead of the other two. Final Fantasy 4 was the first one released on the SNES. It was renamed Final Fantasy 2 in the US since the real 2 and 3 were never released in the US. I'm not sure if Final Fantasy 4 didn't sell well in the US or what, but for some reason Final Fantasy 5 was not released in the US. Final Fantasy 6 was released in the US, but it was renamed as Final Fantasy 3. The FFIV we got was the EasyType (watered down) version. If you play the version from Chronicles (PS1 with Chrono Trigger) you get the actual Japanese version with a different translation. As for after that, they didnt think that westerners would get FFV (my personal favorite of the series) and that it would be too difficult so they skipped it. They tried releasing it internationally multiple times but due to internal issues it never made it over here until Anthology for PS1. That was the end of the SNES era. Final Fantasy 7 was released on the PS1, and it was called Final Fantasy 7 worldwide. It was not renamed for the US. Yep, though technically the US version is the international version, as the Japanese version didnt have the superboss Weapons until later. --- Playing: FFVFJF!
