Chinese Famicom Final Fantasy VII back on eBay photo

Take PlayStation RPG epic Final Fantasy VII, knock it down to 8-bits, translate it to Chinese, and then throw it on a cartridge, and you'll have something like this somewhat collectible piece of crap. It's got Advent Children branding, though it has nothing to do with the movie. That's just how Chinese rip-offs work.

This one is in new condition, and has only been played once. A mere $2.25 could buy you one of the darkest parts of gaming's history. I don't expect that it will go for much. It would make a kickass gag gift, I think.

I love the screenshot above. Is that Cloud?

If I was rich, I'd buy Square Enix and have them make stuff like this for me all the time.

I'd love to see an actual SNES-type demake of FFVII. I think it'd be awesome.

YES! I love these China ripoff games. I DLed a rom of a chinese remake of Resident Evil for NES. It was spectacularly bad.

What I REALLY want is the Famicom FFX. Unlike this, it was made in Japan, so it might actually be good (it's a hack of FFII iirc).

Adidas Shoes have extremely low tops, flat flips, pointed tips and an instep with very few ventilation holes. According to Adidas Online Shop, Adidas a3 basketball shoes are made of synthetic leather and offer firmness. According to kidzworld.com, the Adidas City Series offers ventilation so the feet can breathe while you play. Adidas offers the Mens Adidas Shoes, Game Day Lightning and the A3 shoe brands.
