Crossovers?

FFnut · 01-25-2005, 10:10 PM

I'm not talking about complete crossovers, but things that appear in FF games that are also in other, non-FF games (whether Square or not) such as the Cactuar on Volt's jacket in The Bouncer. Another one I noticed is from the old SNES game Secret Of Evermore, which has a knight named Cecil running an armor/weapon shop and his wife, Rosa, who teaches a magic spell. Granted, it IS a Square game, but that is indeed an interesting little quirk. Anyone find any others?

What do yo umean....crossovers of consoles or the FF games overall?

FFnut · 01-26-2005, 09:33 AM

FF games overall. I gave a few examples (characters in other games, little things related to FF games) another great one is in one of the Parasite Eves (I forget which one); at one point someone is searching for a way to stop a virus called "Cloud" and the antivirus is "Aeris."

Cloud is a hidden character in FF: tactics.

In FF1 in the town of Melmond (I think it was) there is a guy called Dr. Unne, FF9 referances Dr.Unne, withe the Unne's mirror if you look at the description in your menu.

There are more references between FF1 and FF9 than that. The 4 fiends in FF1 - Lich, Maliris (she was renamed to Kary in the US version of FF1), Tiamat and Kraken - are all bosses in FF9 with the same appearances as in FF1. Also, the main bad guy in FF1 is called Garland, that should ring a bell for all FF9 players out there. I'm sure there are more things too.. but these are the most obvious, at least to me.

I know, I was feeling lazy as per usual :P
theres another FF1 refernece in FF9 that springs to mind...the princess at the beginning is called Sarah is some versons (the Hebrew for Princess is Sarah :P) and in FF9 Garnets real name is (this is a secret you can find on disc 4) Sarah.
Another FF1-9 reference is of course the name of the first kingdom in FF1; Coneria, this is also the name of Marcus's lover in the FF9 play.

in FF5 or FF4 there is a guy named Kain and in FF9 (memoria) u can find Kain's Lance in a hidden place..

LoKuS · 05-04-2005, 10:40 PM

Theres a character named Cid in every game, but im sure you all knew that.

ShadowHeart · 05-05-2005, 06:33 AM

Really??!?!

ShadowHeart · 05-05-2005, 06:52 AM

OMG I didn't even know Garnet's real name.. I never bothered with that side quest, although I did want to know..

Yeah, there's probably even more things lol. Didn't even think about the Coneria one

Gumdrop · 05-05-2005, 01:10 PM

It took me a while to get that sidequest to work for some reasion, and it took me a while to be bothered....but yes that is her real name. I just remebered another obvious ff1-9 refference; the place in ff9, Mount Gulug should have been translated as Mount Gulg, like the place in ff1, it also has the same music :P

Zeromus_X · 08-02-2005, 01:45 AM

alot of the places in ff9 that are in previous ff games have similar music. like, the Pandaemonium in ff9 has similar music as the Pandaemonium in ff2. (i just really like Pandaemonium. or anything with that "ae" sound in it. just me.)
