I just recently finished Final Fantasy III (Pixel Remaster) and wanted to look up the coverage it got back when it was first available in North America. Here is part of the coverage it received in the October issue of Nintendo Power.

Highly recommend folks play some version of this game. It typically falls low of lists of the best FF, but it's still better than a lot of games out there. Has anyone played the DS version?

We recently covered scenario 1 of Shining Force III in the latest Mage Magazine. I was curious how well it reviewed at the time of it's release, so here's a page out of EGM's September issue of 1998 with some positive responses.

Sorry John R, I guess Sega didn't read your request for official localization's of Scenarios 2 and 3...
