► BEFORE CRISIS FFVII - COMPENDIUM ◄

(https://i.postimg.cc/wMkYN6xN/BC-Logo-1.jpg)

As follow, information about the network-based action RPG, the first of its kind, developed exclusively for japanese mobile phones and published by Square Enix in 2004, released on NTT DoCoMo's FOMA 900i line on a monthly subscription basis with "multiplayer" experience. On September 2007 it was released the last special episode. On March 31, 2018 the service to fully play the game was shut down without leaving any chance to play once again to this title.

This is a list of data collected through the Internet about 2004 Before Crisis Final Fantasy VII, a prequel to FFVII, and the very first title of Compilation of FFVII. I'm gathering this in the hope of archiving as much as possible all about it and creating an idea of the game design and gameplay loop... But also in the hope of conveying a hint of the feeling that BC was supposed to leave to the player. Enjoy.

Let's start from this: Please do read this exhaustive mobile post mortem (pp.28) (https://ubm-twvideo01.s3.amazonaws.com/o1/vault/GD_Mag_Archives/GDM_September_2005.pdf) before indulging in the compendium below.

BC Character Profiles - 10th Anniversary Ultimania (https://twitter.com/TurquoiseHammer/status/1556395838221553666) - translation by TurquoiseHammer
Character names, official: Rod, Gun, Two Guns, Shotgun, Martial Arts: Female, Martial Arts: Male, Shuriken, Katana, Nunchaku, Knife, Legend, Veld, Tseng, Reno, Rude - This is obviously referred to the actual weapon they are equipping and in the original Before Crisis you could actually rename the characters as you preferred.

From Last Order Sketches, in brackets there are the BC official names: Alvis[Rod], Emma[Gun], Ruluf[Two Guns], Freyra[Shotgun], Maur[Martial Arts M], Juget[Martial Arts F], Balto[Katana], Cissnei[Shuriken], Nunchaku[=], Knife[=], Legend[=].
From a bonus video of ACC, Reminiscence of Compilation FFVII: Balto バルト [Katana] and Crisis クライシス [Rod]
About Following Character Names: Veld[Verdot], Shears[Sears], Diné[ディネ], see:

The FFVII Advent Children Reunion Files, a rare book released in 2006 which feature both japanese and english language (page 96) has both Veld/Verdot and Shears/Sears depicted on the same page
The FFVII 10th Anniversary Ultimania, a book released in Japan only in 2007 has Verdot and Sears only
As per a Japanese-speaker: "The Japanese has very precise and inviolable rules on phonetics, for example every consonant (except n) must necessarily have a vowel behind it. So when a Japanese creates a non-Japanese name in katakana, it will often be approximate. "Shears" and "Sears", pronounced in English, share the same result - シアーズ, so without more info from who created the name it becomes impossible to trace the original name with certainty. Ditto for "Veld" and "Verdot", although Veld *perhaps* could be written differently in Katakana."
For Nanaki's companion, as per Japanese source ( ディネ ): "It's Dìne or Dinè (or Deeneh in phonetic English) but impossibile to guess where the accent should be going." Following english FF Wikia: Diné is the name of the Navajo people in their native language. So ultimately I would say it's Diné.

Regarding the 1920x1080 youtube link I'm not sure if that is being modified anyhow, prolly another upscale.
1) There is the niconico video n.1 (https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm7443060) (512x384) which source as mentioned in the description might come from a specific DVD from magazine "Young Gangan"（ヤングガンガン創刊号付録）。The niconico video n.1 is matching with the resolution of Grimoire's uploaded version (512x384).
2) The niconico video n.2 (https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm37199428) (1920x1080) it's mentioning another source in the description which is the SQUARE ENIX DVD PRESS 2014 WINTER (https://www.ebay.com/itm/Very-Rare-SQUARE-ENIX-DVD-PRESS-2014-winter-Whats-new-collection-mania-/133658102543). The only issue with niconico video n.2 it's the audio which is totally different.
3) It is possible to download any niconico video from videofk.com website (https://www.videofk.com/lang_en_nicovideo) or nico downloader chrome plugin (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nico-downloader/dncjcadpoakefjpnabimpalenliehbig)
