Just a heads up to people playing the PSP version for the first time.
The beginning fights take longer to load and stutter a bit at loading. At first I thought this was my UMD 10 years ago, but it's just the fights with visible enemies on the screen before the fight. Most of the fights are random, but the first couple of fights in the cave and the one or so in the forest with the monster on the screen cause this.

Nope. Edited in the PSP port.

That was a common issue with UMDs. Digital should hopefully eliminate that.

Awesome.
It does. If you play the game from memory stick on PSP, the loading is fine.

It does. I have the game on my PSPGo, and it loads flawlessly.

Holy yes at the PSP version. It's one of the reasons I bought a PSP back in the day, only to never get it here.

The 5th game is still good, just different and not a classic JRPG

I'm happy for you north american folks, one of my favourite games.
Ideally they'd just have a PSP emulator too, it's not like they have to hold back to preserve their fat PS TV profits (and the existence of the PS TV answers the question about handheld vs console licensing). Sony already made a partially complete PSP emulator for the PS3 just to run minis.
This is a neat little game. I recommend to anyone that wants to play a old school PS1 rpg. The music and the sprite work at its best assets.

Curiously, both are forest themes too lol.

I've been waiting so long for this.
So much better. The art in BoF4 is arguably better, but I found the storytelling in BoF4 to be boring in comparison.

This is one of my all time favorite RPGs. This is truly great.
I loved BoF 1-3 with my heart. I still have yet to play 4.

For those asking about version differences, the only adverse change my googling has reliably confirmed is the removal of the duplication glitch. I've also read about narrowing a passage in Angel Tower to prevent a puzzle skip and a single report on some slowdown but can't verify them. All the others changes are neutral or positive in nature.
Oh, also apparently that scene of Sunder peeing off the side of Mt. Myrneg is censored.

That's kinda what happened to me. Was still in the childhood arc 8 hours in and I just got bored of it.

Holy crap. Finally. The impossible made possible.
Going to snag it day 1 and throw it right on the Vita. YESSSSSSS. That'll be one less title to pine for.
Capcom is on a roll with filling in their PSOne classic holes, and I wish Square would take notes.

And people complain about KHII's long intro. The child arc was way longer.

My second favorite Breath of Fire game after Dragon Quarter. Glad to have the chance to own a portable version of the game.

So, did Sony finally back down when they realized how hypocritical it was to cockblock remasters on PSP, whilst they themselves are presently releasing and allowing a flood of Remasters on PS4 that either lack new content, or OUTRIGHT REMOVE content? (Nathan Drake Collection, Type-0 HD)
Finally, it would seem that the ghost of the Avatar of Satan, Bernie Stolar, may finally have been exorcised from Sony. Man though I'm going to dread when Sony gets back to their PS1/2 state and they're flexing their muscles even more, dictating what or what not can be made, because there's going to be a lot more BoF3 PSP NA scenarios coming our way again if Arrogant Sony makes its full return.

YES! YES! YES!
Breath of Fire 3 is a game I've bought twice, loved it both times...until it froze a few hours in due to scratched disc. Been meaning to import the psp version from Europe for awhile now but thankfully I won't have to now

Not sure what this has to do with KH2, but on my playthroughs of FM+ I always make sure to make a second save file when I get back control of Sora. I didn't like it the first time and I certainly didn't the second time.

Hooray another JRPG for the backlog. I look forward to playing this...someday.

Im saying that JRPG intros use to be longer. KHII's intro ain't nowhere the length of FFVII's Midgar or BoFIII's Childhood arc.

Then you have DQ4 where the intro is basically 4 separate scenarios introducing all the support characters before the hero appears in Chapter 5.
ULTROS!
People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
The child arc is no introduction-tutorial either. It was basically half of the game you play as young Ryu.

Nah, it's maybe 4-6 hours of content in a 40+ hour game. It's the Midgar of Breath of Fire 3.

Awesome you mention DQ4, my DS copy is on its way. Now that's what I'm talking about.
It will be fun reliving BoFIII on a Vita, I remember as a child thinking it would be awesome to play JRPGs on the go since they are so long. The Vita has revitalized that dream 15 years later. All the Final Fantasy games up till X, BoFIII, Persona 3/4 all portable in some fashion.
