At long last, you can buy every Final Fantasy game in a single box.

If you love the Final Fantasy series and have $450 laying around spare then you can buy the 25th anniversary Final Fantasy Box Set.
This set comes with:
- Every Final Fantasy game (excluding MMO’s and spin-offs)
- A numbered presentation plaque with character artwork by Yoshitaka Amano
- A 2-Disc Soundtrack
- Commemorative DVD
- 128-page book full of concept art
- In-game items for Final Fantasy XIV
The only catch as far as I can see, is that the games come on different systems. Final Fantasy I-IX (Excluding III) come on Playstation 1 discs, III comes on a PSP UMD, X, XI and XII come in Playstation 2 format, and XIII comes on a more understandable Playstation 3 Blu-Ray disc. This means that to play every game in this set you’re going to need all 3 Playstation home consoles and a PSP or a backwards compatible Playstation 3 and a PSP.
Everyone, however, seems to be asking the same question: Why haven’t they been ported onto a single console? Many of the Final Fantasy’s for the Playstation 1 are available for purchase on the Playstation Network. Would it have been so much trouble to work with Sony to create a disc that installs the same information as downloading would?
The Final Fantasy Ultimate Box will be available in Japan on December 18th for 35,000 yen. There’s no official release date or price for the western version.
If you can read Japanese, you can (I think) pre-order the box here.
