Final Fantasy VII (Chinese: 最终幻想7) is a China-exclusive unofficial remake of the 1997 console role playing game of the same name originally developed by Square for the PlayStation. The remake was developed and published by the Chinese company Shenzhen Nanjing Technology for the Famicom.
Gameplay
The game features an adaptation of the Materia system of the original Final Fantasy VII. The items and magic spells are those of the original game, although a number of them have been omitted.[1]
Development
Final Fantasy VII was originally developed by Square (now Square Enix and released worldwide in 1997 for the PlayStation. At an unknown date, Shenzhen Nanjing Technology developed an unauthorized remake of the game. Rather uncommonly, this remake was released on a less powerful platform than the original, namely the Famicom. Although the game is not a ROM hack, as it was coded from scratch, many of its sprites are borrowed from other Final Fantasy games.[1]
Due to the Famicom's restricted hardware, the remake is entirely 2D, unlike the original Final Fantasy VII. The story was faithfully reproduced, although a few side quests and features were omitted, including the presence of the playable characters Yuffie Kisaragi and Vincent Valentine.[1]
