Final Fantasy remakes blip on Gamestop's website

If we're to believe 1UP, Square is heads-over-heels in love with the PSP. A deluge of titles is supposed to head to our favorite handheld, including remakes of Final Fantasy I & II. Although SCEA usually has a no-ports policy, it appears that this high-profile re-release may get greenlit for US release. Gamestop's website briefly showed a listing for the two ports for June and July, each retailing for $39.99.While Gamestop doesn't have the most reliable release date information, they can be very good at accidentally revealing new games before they're officially announced. Remember Oblivion? This is probably a positive indicator that the games will receive an English release, but I hope that price is completely fabricated: there's no justification at all for a $40 price tag on an NES game remake.

"I hope that price is completely fabricated: there's no justification at all for a $40 price tag on an NES game remake."
Very true - as I said in the original announcement, I'd probably pay $40 for *both*, provided there are extras involved. But $40 for each is just insulting.

The only way I would pay 40 would be if SE (SquareEnix)
did a 3D version like FFIII for the DS. Why would I want to pay that high of a price for some thing many people can play on there PSPs for free. So at least change the game.
Also why no listing for FFT this game I would pay forty for.
Other then that I guess not all the store's look them off there web pages.
