Final Fantasy IV
Gameboy Advance
Final Fantasy IV was such an amazing hit, that Square has re-released it once for Final Fantasy: Chronicles (with Chrono Trigger), but have AGAIN re-released it for the Gameboy advance. This will be similiar to what they did with Final Fantasy I and IIj for Final Fantasy: Dawn of Souls
Not much information is available regarding the new release, but there is a website under construction:

Differences???
Many people have been confused on the exact difference and upgrades that FFIV Advance will have over the original FFII released on the SNES years ago. Here is the breakdown
- The Big Whale is now the Lunar Whale
- Added lines of script BUT story-line is the same
- Magic skills have been renamed to fit series standards (Meteo is now Meteor)
- Gameplay reverted BACK to original style found in the FFIV Japanese version, meaning the game is tougher than the FFII (US).
- Healing items harder to find
- All characters can use their extra skills that were dumped in the easy version of the game.
- includes two new bonus dungeons with more than fifty floors to explore and more than a dozen new boss encounters
