About this game
This version of Final Fantasy VII is a Chinese-made unlicensed "demake" (a remake of a game that uses inferior technology) of the popular Japanese RPG Final Fantasy VII .
This version retains most of the dialogue (translated into Chinese) of the original release, and, with a few exceptions, the narrative develops in exactly the same way.

Naturally, given the much more limited technology of this version's platform, everything else has been changed accordingly.
For all purposes, the game looks, sounds, and plays like a Famicom (NES) game.
Much of the graphics and sounds have been ripped from other games (usually early Final Fantasy installments).
The gameplay underwent some significant changes.
Many of the monsters are entirely different.
The difficulty level is much higher than in the original version.
The game still retains the materia system (equipment imbued with magic spells that can grow), but it has been simplified, and the growth is much slower.
The characters are unable to execute any "limit break" attacks.
Much of the original game's content has been eliminated, such as all the mini-games, optional locations (there is no town of Wutai), optional characters (no Yuffie and/or Vincent), and optional bosses (no "weapon" monsters).
About Nintendo Entertainment System
The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.
Gamevaro tracks Final Fantasy VII for Nintendo Entertainment System with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Final Fantasy VII to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NES release dates back to 2005.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Final Fantasy VII, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo Entertainment System titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
