Find yourself stuck on a difficult section or lacking the funds to buy that vital Phoenix Down? With the Character Booster you can increase your HP, MP and Gil levels to their maximum, all with the simple click of a button, leaving you to enjoy your adventure.

Sounds like a browser game with in game purchases.

Hasn't this been in the Steam cache for years?

SE seems to like Steam, so probably made sense to make it work better on modern computers, throw in some achievements and sell it to all people who had it as their first RPG.

Surprised it's only $10 though.

Browser game as in 'cheap multitransaction bullshit.'

Maybe now people will realize the love for this game is 100% nostalgia and stop bitching. I'd prob run through it someday if they actually translated it this time though. :(

That way they don't have to pay the 30% cut to Steam and pass the savings on to you

How much can it possibly cost to make your own online store anyway?

Haha, no. I wasn't even sure if this place was still around, but apparently it is, and they haven't updated their web design very much. Actually, it looks a little more professional than Square's store.

Not buying this. Wouldn't want people to pirate a 15 year old game!

Not really when there is a free patch that patches in better music, fixed background etc, and works on Windows XP/Vista/7/8 in fact it wouldn't surprise me if square didn't just snag that and make people pay for it.

I had a lot of trouble getting my original PC version to run on Windows XP. To get it to run I had to use a program called Rivatuner and even then I ran into a fatal error 15 hours into the game. These days I rather emulate the PS1 version.
