For much of the 21st century, Final Fantasy games were PlayStation exclusives. However, with a nearly 40-year history and a need to reach new generations of players (not to mention bolstering the bottom line!), Square Enix, like many publishers, has embraced multi-platform releases. Beyond PC ports, they've also brought numerous remasters and special editions to Nintendo's handhelds.
This isn't entirely new territory. The Final Fantasy series' origins are intertwined with Nintendo, with the first six mainline entries debuting on Nintendo platforms before Square Enix shifted its primary focus to PlayStation with Final Fantasy VII.
