It's Square Enix's keynote address at E3 2019. The guy on stage has been talking up Tomb Raider DLC, announcing the release date of the last couple Final Fantasy Xbox/Switch ports, announcing another mediocre-looking Tokyo RPG Factory game, giving out a bit more Final Fantasy VII Remake info (but no release date yet), and announces a decent looking Kingdom Hearts III DLC expansion. There's one more "huge" AAA game announcement left (probably NieR 3 but it could be another Octopath-esque Switch exclusive), but before that, the speaker launches into a brief aside about classic Square and Enix games.

Which leads into the announcement of a "Square Enix Classics Collection", a collection of classic Square and Enix SNES games all compiled into one disc/cartridge, for the PS4/Xbox One/Switch. All games have their original graphics/sound, but get bug fixes/translation fixes/translations for the ones not already in English. 10 Squaresoft games, 10 Enix games, here's the list:

ActRaiser
Bahamut Lagoon
Chrono Trigger
Dragon Quest V
Dragon Quest VI
E.V.O.: Search For Eden
Final Fantasy IV
Final Fantasy V
Final Fantasy VI
Front Mission
Illusion Of Gaia
Live-A-Live
Ogre Battle: The March Of The Black Queen
Secret Of Mana
Seiken Densetsu 3
Soul Blazer
Star Ocean
Terranigma
Treasure Of The Rudras
Wonder Project J

Then before going into the next announcement, he re-iterates that this is a "Vol. 1" and that there will likely be a second collection of PS1/Nintendo 64-era classics.

So yeah, if 1 is no reaction at all, and 10 is the pop Stone Cold Steve Austin got after running in to win Mankind the WWE Championship, what would your reaction be?

I would be disappointed that this collection isn't coming to PC, and to a lesser extent that DQ5 and DQ6 apparently don't have their remake updates. Otherwise, I think this would be a pretty cool idea, but I don't have any of those three consoles, so maybe a 3/10 on your scale?

Hail the reigning Guru champ, Advokaiser!

Treasure Of The Rudras

I assume they'd be licensing the fan translation on that one.

That other stuff is just the setup, the collection itself is what the topic is about.

5/10

I would have thought people in here would be going nuts for official translations of Live-a-Live and especially SD3.

I can play all of those games right now on any number of different devices. I would never pay money for that collection.

I'd be pretty hyped.

Official english versions of the DQ games, SD3, Star Ocean, and even the original FFV would be pretty great (as long as they didn't use the PS1 script for FFV).
