Final Fantasy I Translations (Wonderswan Color) Version 1.0 1/28/01 By Red Scarlet By Red Scarlet (akaiscarlet@hotmail.com) Version 1.0 01/28/00-Faq Created. This FAQ is for personal use only. It cannot be altered without the consent of the FAQ's owner (me), nor published in any magazines or any reproducted form. This FAQ is not meant for sale and is copyright 2000 Red Scarlet. If you want to use this FAQ on your Website or page, please email me for permission (akaiscarlet@hotmail.com) Go to www.njstar.com to get the Japanese text to display how it would on the game (or use some other kind of Japanese text viewing program). This FAQ is for anyone who has a Wonderswan Color and Final Fantasy I for it, and needs to know what the heck all the names of items, magic, characters, or monsters are. I assume you already know the game, so there are very few actual strategies in this FAQ. There are already a few at Gamefaqs already made, so view one of those if you need direction on where to go. The newest updates will always be at Gamefaqs. In pretty much all of the lists, the order of what things are in will be: Japanese Kana that appears onscreen/romanized version/my translation/name in the US version of FF1 on the NES, if it is different. Enjoy! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- First up are the options at the title screen. ニューゲーム-Nyu-ge-mu (New Game) Starts a new game. ロードゲーム-Ro-doge-mu (Load Game) Continue off of a saved game (up to 8 different files can be saved). さいかい-Saikai (Resume) Load a game that was saved using the ちゅうだん-Chuudan (Interrupt/Quick Save) option. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you are starting a New Game, you will arrive at the Character Select screen.

Be aware that it is not a permanent save, as soon as the power is shut off, the information is lost. The information is kept during a soft reset (Y3+X1+START+B+A), however. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- コンフィグ-Konfigu (Config) モードきりかえ-Mo-dokirikae (Mode Select) カーソルいちきおく-Ka-soru ichikioku (Cursor Memory) メッサジそくど-Messaji sokudo (Message Speed) ウインドウカラー-Uindoukara- (Window Color) Yボタンせったい-Y botansettai (Y button menu) モードきりかえ-Mo-dokirikae (Mode Select) For the Mode Select, you can either play in オリジナルモード-Orijinarumo-do (Original Mode) or エクストラモード-Ekusutoramo-do (Extra Mode) Original Mode is exactly like the 8 bit version in certain things, while the Extra Mode adds some updated changes. The different options are: オートターゲット-O-tota-getto (Auto Target) When Auto Target is ON, if two characters attempt to attack the same monster, and one character kills it, the other character will attack a different monster. When Auto Target is OFF, the second character will attack air, wasting their turn. Bボタンダッシュ-B botandasshu (B Button Dash) When this option is ON, you can run in towns and dungeons while holding the B button. バトルほじょ-Batoruhojo (Battle Aid) When this option is ON, several spells and items that could not be used in battle, now can. Examples are: レイズ-Reizu (Raise)/Life, アレイズ-Areizu (Arise)/Lif2, ストナ-Sutona (Stona)/Soft, and the きんのはり-Kin no Hari (Gold Needle)/Soft item. バトルキーヘルプ-Batoruki-herupu (Battle Key Help) At this time, I am not sure what the difference is when this option is ON or OFF. Sorry. カーソルいちきおく-Ka-soru ichikioku (Cursor Memory) You can set the battle cursor in battle to either be set to しょき-Shoki (Initial) or きおく-Kioku (Memory-set to the last command chosen). メッサジそくど-Messaji sokudo (Message Speed) Set the speed of the text when you talk to characters. 1 is the fastest, 4 is the slowest. ウインドウカラー-Uindoukara- (Window Color) Set the color of the background. Yボタンせってい-Y botansettai (Y button menu) From the field screen, if you hit one of the Y buttons, they will automatically go to a certain menu. The defaults are: Y1-そうび-Soubi (Equip) Y2-アイテム-Aitemu (Item) Y3-Same effect as hitting the START button. Y4-まほう-Mahou (Magic) If you dislike those, you can choose between any of the menu commands. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- That's it for now, unless I get enough emails about anything else or any additions/changes.
