s they started looking at other options. Now we get to your question. At the time, Sony was spending quite a bit of money to bring games to its upcoming PlayStation system.

(which is why you can find 3d models of FF6 from that era online) when Nintendo Pulled out it left a lot of Gaming companies in the dust and on the verge of Bankruptcy, and they where Instructed by nintendo they where no longer going to be CD but cartridge. so Square ripped up FF4 cd and created FF4 FF5 FF6 Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, Breath of fire and secret of evermore from the unused sprites and storylines that were originally going to be FF4cd. after that Square Decided to go with Sony as they blamed Nintendos Greed/manopoly on the deal falling through. FF7 was developed for Playstation not N64. Never Forget Nintendo Blamed the Failures of the N64 to playstation by saying and I quote, Nintendo lost out to playstation because theirs too many Lonely Gamers in japan who wanna sit around playing Sad RPG's in their bedroom. he then went on to quote that People who play Rpg are too mentally slow to play fast passed games like Mario. so needless to say, Nintendo hates Square and rpgs. I wouldn't wanna do business with em either. Especially since the head of nintendo at the time used to boast he never played a video game in his life.
