A kid in the 90s or the early 2000s would've had one or several new Final Fantasy titles coming out every year or every few years on different platforms. Makes it much easier to stay engaged with a property and to become a long time fan

You were getting new games as a kid? I had a handed down console that smelt of cigarettes and demo disks, bargain bucket games and whatever my mum could check out from the library. Or if i was lucky a blockbuster voucher for the rare new rental treat i would hammer through

That's why your dad gave like 20 bucks to some guy he knew to put a modchip in your PS1 think-about-it

All of our PS1 Squaresoft games were burned CDs with the name of the scribbled on them. Good thing too because those bastards wouldn't release all of their coolest games in Europe because they didn't want to figure out how to also fit a Dutch translation or whatever onto the discs
