Final Fantasy IX [Switch/XB1] |OT| A Sudden Encounter
- Thread starter Dancrane212
- Start date
To be fair, you've been able to play it portable for more than a decade.
Though, I wonder if it has the slow down the game had on the PSP back in the day. Some battles in some areas when using spells etc would dip into slide show territory.
Disappointing (but not surprising) to see that this port has all of the same issues as the PS4/PC version.
Replayed this recently on Vita and that's still the ideal way to play imo.
Amazing game btw, even better than I remembered (best FF).

Definitely didn't expect this to stealth drop. Bought and will play through again once I finally finish KH3.
I was bored so I did a couple banners if you want to use them in the OP. They aren't the greatest though. xD
These are nice!!
i wouldnt recommend anyone to jump on at x, but im probably not a good jusge since X is the final fantasy game that after id played nearly all the other ff games convinced me that the series is just not turning into sonething i enjoy at all and to drop the series. 9 actually was the last one i really liked.
Definitely. They fixed it pretty quickly in the FFX remaster, but can't be bothered to fix it here.
Now you have to make a list of hypothetical achievements for Dino Crisis.
i thought this is only a FFX issue, not a FFIX one.
Bought it on Xbox, won't let me install it. Hard reset, won't let me install it. Final Fantasy Nein.
Unfortunately they've had like...4 or 5 years to fix it for FF7 and they just haven't been bothered.
I'd say the game is still good enough to enjoy for people that never played it before though.
This is hands down my favorite Final Fantasy title. Happily purchased it on Vita, iOS, Steam, and now Switch. Can't wait to play through this again. So envious of those of you who are playing it for the first time, enjoy!
I never actually finished FFIX. I think I made it near to the end and just....stopped. Always intended to go back but didn't. IIRC I reached a point in the game where there was a pretty significant departure in the story and setting and no longer felt as invested.
Questions for the port:
- is there a speed up option for the battles?
- no load times (or neglible) for random encounters?
- what exactly is the music bug and how disruptive is it?

Best Final Fantasy I'm so happy it's on one if the best systems ever!!! Sadly I'll be waiting for a bit more cash before I buy it on a 6th platform! Hopefully next month though. I hope all you new people enjoy it immensely
If I can only pick up one of them, should I be getting this or Versperia to play on the Switch? Haven't played either before and I'm in the mood for a JRPG.
Why, why, why is SE okay with having this audio bug in their games? This is not okay. And why the fuck does it keep happening, it's happened in 7, 9 and 10 PS4 (the only one they bothered fixing). They have these incredible games with incredible music that they're straight up tarnishing and they don't seem to give a fuck.
No buy.
No buy.
I've been watching the recent awesome games done quick speed run of this and wanting to play it, so nice timing! Though I'm pretty conflicted, this port has been out for over 2 years and its got the same issues on a whole new set of consoles at full price no less.
Might have to wait for a sale.

I've never played FFIX and held of buying it on PS4 because of the music bug. I can't believe they haven't fixed it..
Music is one of the most important things for me when it comes to games. I won't buy it until it's fixed.

Press start, and then it gives you an option for boosters. You press one of the four shoulder buttons depending on what booster you want.
Ok it's a dreadful port. No analog controls, music resets after random encounters, perceptible input delay even in menus (Alexandria's rope jump mini-game is unplayable). They butchered this. Is there a way to get refunded on European eShop?
Is it really that bad? Oh jeez. I was looking forward to this and all the FF output on Switch. :(
Haha, that world map framerate. And I thought Vesperia on the Switch was bad. Really disappointing port. Next time I'll wait for impressions before jumping in rather than blindly following my FFIX nostalgia.
Well shit. Too late though.. I already purchase it on Switch. >_>
Maybe they'll fix it..
No analog? How could they lack such a basic thing?
Input lag too? Yikes.
Man, IX deserves so much better. How they can keep pushing out these subpar ports I'll never understand.
I guess I'll stick to emulating the PS1 version. Shame, portable FF IX would've been great.
$20.99 is a weird price.
And it's a weird port.
I love FFIX and want to indicate interest/support on the Xbox, but Square is making it awfully difficult.
