Square-Enix has developed one of the most enjoyable games never thought possible. That game is Final Fantasy IV; developed for the Nintendo DS. Playing the orginial Final Fantasy 4 for the SNES (Super Nintendo Entertainment System), the games has been revamped, balanced, and given certain new features that makes the game very enjoyable.
What makes this version unique is it’s new 3D graphics, voice, and rewritten story phrases. The orginial Final Fantasy 4 for the US was not predicated to be that successful. When I was 9 years of age, I was one of the few kids who played Final Fantasy and I remember saving my lunch money for it. What made the orginial Final Fantasy 4 at times agonizing was the generic story line. The DS version of this game has been made to be more user friendly, adds a more complete story, and best of all … the characters reflect today’s modern times (old FF4 was very stiff).
You’ll enjoy your favorite characters: Cecil, Golbez, Yang, Cid, Palom, Parom, Zemus, Tellah, Edward, Rosa, and many others. The game still composes of the same cities, including the infamous Kingdom of Baron.
The graphics are amazing for playing on a DS and as always, the story is well written. The sound has been improved, but I feel at times that the difficulity of the game has been reduced. In the end, you’ll find yourself playing it again.

This article will help explain the purpose of augments in Final Fantasy 4. The Nintendo DS version of Final Fantasy 4 has been revised in using a new ability called “augments”. To my suprise, I was completely unaware of it in first playing the game. I’ve beaten the old FF4 over 20 times and noticed that these abilities change the game play greatly. They are given to you as key items and are given for certain reason. Several of the characters have new abilites, but when a character dies, it’s ability is passable to a new player. In order to receive them, you must do certain things in order to receive them.
How to use an augment:
You must first collect an augment to use it. This guide will further explain where the augments can be found.
Access the menu by pressing the “X” button. You must be in an area to access the menu, for example, walking around on the world map.
Next, goto “Inventory” from the option list. In the upper right corner, you will notice the selectable option of “Key Items”. Go there and select that. The tiems there that have a bag-like icon are the augments, if one is in the inventory. The augment is only able to be used once. It’s highly recommended to save the game before using in it in order to test them out.
It’s important to decide on which augment to use on what character. For example, using “Counter” on Rosa would be a bad idea. Even though she does some damage, she would do very little. Using Cecil or Edge in this option would be the best idea.
Select the “A” button to pick the augment. Press it once more and select the character that you want to use it in. Now your character has that ability to use the augment.
