Final Fantasy VI/Items

Select controller:

SNES, Game Boy Advance

This is a list of all 255 items in order as found in the in-game menu. Note that some items have different names in the various versions of this game. Use the control at the top of the page to switch between them.

Why 255?

The significance behind the number 255 is that the item variable in the game is stored with a single byte (8 bits); therefore the largest number possible that can be made from this 8 digit binary number is 256 (2^8). Where'd the last 1 go? In programming, and in most logical cases we have to include the number 0 so that we can represent having nothing; thus the largest number we can have in actuality is 255 or 2^8 - 1.
