  • It was on the carton. They shipped the box the way it looks like it came from the manufacturer.



    As to why I have no idea. Probably some brand management strategy or something.

    All of these reprints are silver discs and they are contemporary printings. Ordered a case and the manufacture date was only about 2 months prior. There will be no end of reprints as long as they keep selling through their website.



    If that is the case then why aren't the 2 most popular titles? They should be selling Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy Tactics. 

    Where did you see the manufacturing date? On the case, instructions or disc?



     

    For VII maybe they are holding off because of the remake that is in the works.  They could be using Nintendo logic.  Starve the customer, make them want it.  As for Tactics, I don't know.

    I don't ever remember them selling Tactics but they used to sell VII then stopped. They used to also sell VIII and did so for much longer but recently stopped.



    I could be wrong but my impression was that of a limited resource that was running out.

    That was my thought as well, but some people are talking about printing dates as recently as a few months ago.  I never thought about looking for printing dates, so I'm not sure if that's true or not, but if they are activly printing discs now, you have to wonder why VII and Tactics aren't included.

    Curious about these dates well. The poster stated this date was on the shipping box.
