Well, frrom what I have read the game will be a compilation of Phantasy Star 1,2,and 3. #4 isn't included in the package due to its extreme file size in comparison to its predecesors (#1=4mb, #2=6mb, #3=8mb, #4=24mb). I have also heard that PS4 will be released for the GBA, but will be sold seperatly from the PS Collection. No word yet on any improvments/additions to the games.

			THQ will release Phantasy Star Collection for GameBoy Advance in November. The compilation includes Phantasy Star 1 - 3, the GBA version will offer both the original version and the enhanced version of the three games. There is also a new Save feature which allows you to store the save data of each title separately.

Being a proponent of pure ports I like the availability of the original version as an option. *hint hint Squaresoft*

Scratch that. There will not be an enhanced version according to THQ.

Genesis games typically have a resolution of 320x224

GBA has a resolution of 240x160.

If they're not going to do anything to enhance the graphics for GBA, it's going to look like utter crap.

edit: I noticed a blurb in an IGN article that said that they would have included PS4, but "the 128 Megabit carts are too expensive". Last time I checked, 4+8+12+24 is 48, which would fit in a 64Mbit cart, even allowing for some porting bloat...
