I'm already having to hide my Wallet... Final Fantasy XII: Zodiac Age for PC... and Final Fantasy XV for PC coming out in the same year...
Oh, is Zodiac Age the upgraded version of the original title? If so... SWEET! That's the one that we've been missing.
I think it is. I'm also eyeing Secret of Mana -- I never knew it was related to the Final Fantasy series.

Yeah, Secret of Mana is part of FF Gaiden (Final Fantasy Side Story.) All of the mana titles are part of the FF series. I actually came to FF from the FFG side, rather than the other way around.
There are several in the Mana side story series. I like them a little more than FF, actually. Mana / FFG hasn't gotten the same attention as FF, though, and they've done a terrible job of making it clear what the game storyline progression is with names of the title constantly changing and no continuity between platforms.

SoM is part 2 of the Mana series. Part 1 has no announcement for a port to PC. But there is a port to Android.

The fourth Mana game was on the PSX. I have this one in a box somewhere...
-
The hope is that now that Mana 1 has released in a remade form for Android, and that Mana 2 has been remade for PC, that Mana 3 might be coming - that's the one that no one has seen since the Super Famicom and is often said to have had the best graphics of the era. Almost no American has ever seen it.

I saw the SoM for the SNES way back in the day... (It may have been on an EMU, I can't remember, lol).

I could never get into the FF games. My brother loved them. Just was too slow for me.

It's all about the story for me. You are right though, they can seem a bit slow at times. Especially the older titles.

Same here, I play the games for their stories.

Dominica is back to Dragon Age Inquisition

That one is fun but it drags on a bit if you do all the crafting/fetching things.

Still working on Kingdom of Amalur: Reckoning.

Had a load of Big Fish Games coupons about to expire. Ended up picking up like a dozen casual PC games. The kids are going to love that.

Of the original, as well. I've never understand their own desire to bury this game. It would be a huge hit on PC.
