Relm:
I couldn't miss the chance to practice my drawing!
This article is in need of a few pictures. Perhaps you can help by uploading a picture of PSP and NES shields.
Below is a list of the armor from the original Final Fantasy and its remakes.

Prices[]
In the Origins release for the PlayStation, an Easy mode was introduced and the player was allowed to select difficulty. In Easy mode, armor prices are generally lower. All versions of the game prior to the Origins release use the Normal prices. All versions that came out after the Origins release use the Easy prices.
Unless otherwise noted as a footnote, every piece of armor sells for approximately half its purchase price. All armor introduced in Dawn of Souls and subsequent releases sell for 100 gil, even those available for purchase.
