The forum really needs some life pumped into it... hopefully this'll help a bit...
Well, after tons of petitions from us Nintendo geeks, Square-Enix finally gave in; and decided to give Nintendo two Final Fantasy remakes for the GBA!!! These remakes are of none other than Final Fantasy 1 + 2. I know what you must be thinking right now... and NO, this is not merely a rerelease of origins. Simply put, it is a complete remake; with better graphics, storyline (thank god), sidequests, and MORE. To make it even better, both are being released upon the same cartridge!
Being the sneaky lil moron that I am, I decided to get you guys a bit of proof... so here are a few interesting things...
The official Square Website:

Released Picture:

...I would post links and pictures myself, but (though I hate to admit it), I don't exactly know how to post links or images in a forum... *sigh*
Take a look though, you'll probably find it quite... interesting.

The Hel? I thought this was old news.
I remembered hearing about it long time ago 'cause in addition to adding all the new, shiny stuff, they were also going to add an idiot mode for today's gamer that only plays games to win in a timely manner. Bah!
'Course, that may have been for a different system... like PS or something. Either way, only II interests me as I already have I... one.
New graphics... feh! When they re-released FF on the WonderSwan, they only cleaned 'em up a bit but kept them to their classic greatness. I mean, Fighter and Red Mage look like fruits... and where is RM's deal over his mouth?
Well, at least White Mage is a chick... and is actually supposed to be a chick... unlike the original FF. *shudders* Class changing ruined and disturbed so much...

Yeah, more remakes of FFI and II, like they don't have enough of those flying around (seriously, aren't there like a ton of them?)
What's actually interesting is the fact that it's recently been announced that the boys down at Nintendo finally want a FFIII remake to be ported! Hurray! They never remade that one to death for some reason, so now they can start!

Seeing as GBA is about the only system I own other than a PC, and I know how everyone here feel about ROMs, the remakes intrigue me. I like the old FF games (I've played III/VI and V before). And posting links/pictures in the forums is simple just use the HTML codes. [a href="URL Name"]link name[/a] (replacing [] with < >). Images are [img src="Picture URL Name"]

Hmmmmm... Sorry 'bout that Mintman; I guess it actually DID stretch the screen then; right? Sorry 'bout that... I had to go so I didn't even get the chance to see my own message... i'll be a bit more careful... if I ever post any other images; that is.
...As for Advent Children; I am pretty excited. It looks awesome, and hopefully will answer many of those questions about "What happens after the ending?". 8)

Um, that is part of the ending. Msanis is probably wondering about "after the ending," which no one really knows about yet.
