First of all, this game has added in clear bonuses. Before each battle the game will lay out the victory conditions and also give you a clear bonus (usually to win the battle in a certain number of turns). Accomplishing that clear bonus nets you either cash or a weapon that cannot be bought for another town or two. These clear bonuses really spice up battles, as it's no longer a matter of whether you can win or not (you almost always can) but whether you can win FAST enough (which is not nearly as easy).
The second major improvement is cards. There are 55 player and boss cards strewn about the world for you to find. The player cards are obtained by searching through towns and talking to people while the boss cards are obtained by killing bosses with certain people landing the final blow. Hunting these cards obviously adds a lot, but it doesn't stop there. A new character, Mawlock, has been added to the game. Mawlock's big draw is that he EQUIPS these cards and they give him various attributes etc. So not only can you now hunt for cards, you can use them in a variety of different ways to customize a character's abilties.
And the final big improvement is the revamping of the promotion system. In the old Genesis version promoting your main charcter made him so weak he could only stand on the back lines and watch. This has thankfully been taken care of and promotions, while they do weaken your characters a bit at first, are made much, much more managable.
If you played either of the original Shining Force games for the Genesis this is a must-have game. For those new to the strategy RPG realm, this is a quality game to start in on as well. With the new remakes and improvements this is not only one of the best RPGs for the GBA, but one of the best RPGs out there right now period. This is a game every RPG fan should have.
