Final Fantasy IX
'Consumer Demo'
 September 7th, 2000 - Good news if you
live on the west coast of the United States of America - bad if you live in the rest of the world. For one day only, SquareSoft are doing a
'consumer demo day' for Final Fantasy IX... in San Francisco. The one-off
special at a PlayStation Store is on Saturday October 7th and
SquareSoft suggest that you come 'dressed showing off your Final Fantasy pride'. Prizes will also be available, so make sure you go
(yes, that's you three people from San Francisco that will read this
announcement ~_^). Click here to view the official details.
... But if you live in the U.K.
At Square's first stop at London in their tour of Europe (September 9th - this coming Saturday), they will be showing the first footage of the English version of Final Fantasy IX... or
so they say. Watch this space to see if they do.

Coming this November...

U.S. Front Cover

Square Electronic Arts have announced that Final Fantasy IX will hit U.S. shelves
in 'mid-November', which makes it a bit more official. No news on the European
release as of yet, but you can pretty much bet that it will arrive before
Christmas. Click here to see the official press release.
Also revealed is the North American box art, and it seems
SquareSoft have taken the same route as with Final Fantasy VIII's U.S. front cover: the character / colourful look as opposed to the Japanese's simplicity.
