Final Fantasy X|X-2 HD Remaster - Nintendo Switch

Final Fantasy X/X-2, XII:ZA and FFVII remake are the last TRUE FFs that have been made. I have played just about every single Final Fantasy. Not Final Fantasy XI since it's online and a couple off titles like Tactics Advance and Crystal Bearers for the WII. But I am a HUGE Final Fantasy fan and love FF's VI through XII the most. I'm not going to go into a too long detailed review but I have to mention some very important things.First, I have to completely disagree with what Amazon has in it's cons about little innovation from the original PS2 version description. That's so not true. There's a lot of innovation and some things here I wish would return in future FF's. The whole battle system with the CTB is so unique and never used in a FF before. I love being able to use more strategy and use that CTB window to determine when the next enemy will attack and which character will go next depending on what I do in battle. And being able to switch out characters in battle. This was such a genius addition to the series after having the traditional turned based from FFI and the ATB from other FF's before FFX. I really love the CTB and it wasn't used in enough games. FFXII, XIII, XV and FFXVI should have the CTB as well. It really needs to return for at least another true FF. It's such a shame that it hasn't been used in FFXII, FFXIII, XV and won't be in XVI.Which brings me to another point: a lot of people are complaining about the random encounters and calling this boring which couldn't be further from the truth. People just don't understand what Final Fantasy is supposed to be. It's a RPG, NOT an action game series.The removal of the traditional turned based system is a great downfall. That's another thing that makes me love FFX and FFX-2. They could have used the FFXII gambit system again even.But another main thing is the storyline in this game. From the very opening credits, to the very last part with the Game Over screen, this game pulls you in and never lets up. You feel joy, excitement, amazement, sorrow, sadness and so much more and you actually care about the characters. It's more than just a game. It's an experience. It's like reading a book and watching a movie but it's not just that because mostly it's gameplay but you know what I mean. You get so engrossed that you end up playing this game for days without even realizing it. You want to know who Tidus is and where he came from. You want to know if Yuna can save the world from 'Sin.' And who or what is 'Sin' anyway? That's for me to know and you to find out and much, much more. This game has so much to offer and I love it so much. FFX-2 is a continuation with the ATB system and awesome areas you never saw in FFX and by the end, it all wraps up so beautifully.I do have to say that I really pay attention to the music and instruments and instrumentation and everything like that and the only thing about the HD remaster is not better than the PS2 original of FFX is the soundtrack. If you really pay attention, the sounds are not as bombastic, not as vibrant, very watered down. I don't understand how they could take the beautiful original soundtrack of FFX and try to redo it and it just messed it up. Please, please, when playing, please choose the original soundtrack option to get the true experience!This HD remaster of FFX also has the Dark Aeons and Penance that weren't in the NA original PS2 version.I'm just so amazed at the amazing graphics on Switch and voice acting too. The chocobos are so cute and adorable and I love dodging lightning in the Thunder Plains. Amazing caverns, swimming and battling underwater, riding chocobos, the gorgeous, GORGEOUS town of Guadosalem (you'll see what I mean when you get there) and the Farplane. The original soundtrack music is incredible so definitely have to choose the original soundtrack option since they messed up the redone music and made it watered down. So many different emotions you feel in the music alone. I love this just as much as Final Fantasy VI through IX. Please, please, experience FFX HD remaster with the original soundtrack option. It's not just a game. It's a totally unique experience. HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

This is the greatest game in the Final Fantasy series, I played it many times on PC and bought this for my girls to play on Switch. The younger generation is less enamored with long-play RPGs because they never finished it, but it's gorgeously re-mastered, the gameplay is good and the story is top notch. One of the best video games I ever played (although I have not played it on Switch myself)

I love this game is fun and good story :)

I don’t understand why everyone is saying the code is not working or not included. The game I received was unopened and brand new; code included. I’m super excited to be able to play my favorite game anywhere, now that it’s on switch!

No complaints. Runs smoothly on my Switch both in tv and handheld mode, no frame drops, works as intended. As for the game itself, I’ve only played X so far and am almost done with it, but it still holds up really well. And I still have X2 and X2 last promise to look forward to. I hear those are pretty hit or miss, but X alone is already good enough for me. Granted, this is the first time I’ve ever bought the game unlike a lot of people so the price isn’t as much an issue for me, but $50 for X and another game on top of that that I’m at least going to play whether I end up liking it or not, I think it’s a good deal. Personally. It kind of sucks that X2 is a download code and not just a part of the cartridge like X, but I have a micro SD already anyway. Just know that if you’re thinking about picking this game up for your Switch, you’re probably going to want to pick up a Micro as card as well, unless you don’t mind archiving it after you’re done. All in all, good game, and having it portable as an option is great as always, especially when the graphics and run speed aren’t worsened in handheld mode. I’d recommend this one for sure.

great seller fast shipping exactly as pictured and reasonably priced!!!

It's final fantasy

Switch version is as good as any. Portable FFX is nice tho. They also have all the other FFX games on there, but I haven't gotten to them yet.
