TSA writes: Thanks to some epic mid-90s squabbling between Nintendo and Square, there was a point when if you liked Final Fantasy, you needed to have a PlayStation. Sony’s new kid on the block and its expansive CD storage were simply a better fit for the huge JRPG experiences Square were crafting. It was years before the franchise returned to the house of Mario, and when it did in 2004, it was with the unusual action-RPG spin-off Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles. It felt like Square were sinking the knife in further, but for some the multiplayer-centric action-RPG became an important entry in the long-running series.
