We interrupt “baiyon week” to bring you some important news.
The limited release XI Chips -Final Fantasy XI Chiptune- is about to have four other albums join the fold.
For the Final Fantasy 25th Anniversary Gallery in Shibuya (happening next week, Aug 31 – Sept 2), there will be a special “market” section set up. At that place, for that event, Square Enix will be selling Final Fantasy VII Chips, Final Fantasy VIII Chips, Final Fantasy IX Chips, and Final Fantasy X Chips. Well, if you’re going to milk a genre of arranged music, may as well go all out, right?
No information yet on who will be participating on these albums, but we won’t be surprised to see the individuals who worked on SQ Chips, SQ Chips 2, and XI Chips making multiple appearances on these albums, which will sell for 2100 yen each at the event.

argggg anyone going? i pay for you picking up them! =p
SQUARE-ENIX PLEASE RELEASE THESE DIGITALLY SO I MAY OWN THEM.
Oh god, I hope they put these on iTunes or Amazon. The Chips albums are some of the best arrangements S-E has done in decades.
For those who would like to see SqEx put these up for digital purchase, spoilers: they won’t.
I don’t know why they insist on making these AMAZING arrange albums and then not letting ANYONE buy them. It’s like they don’t like money or something.

Yes! the E-store will have all 4 albums for sale. Unfortunately they’re exclusive releases like FFXI Chips. Special Request it is from CDJ.
