What Final Fantasy game would you like to see in HD?

So, I recently saw an article talking about how a Final Fantasy X HD remake was in the works (source) and it got me thinking about the hint of a promise that was a remake of Final Fantasy VII (before the PS3 launch.) It also made me pine for a Final Fantasy XII HD remake.

FFXII came out at horrible time for me gaming wise. It came out so late into the life of the PS2, that by the time I got around to playing it, I had a PS3 and the graphics looked horrible and were a huge annoyance when playing. I ended up playing through about halfway through the game and loving it, but eventually had to shelve it, as the graphics were too distracting. For me, a remake of FFX isn't necessary. FFVII or FFXII make much more sense to me. FFVII came out a while ago, a remake means a new generation can enjoy it, whereas a remake of FFXII could be a chance for the game to shine when it couldn't toward the end of a lifecycle.

Anyway, vote above, comments below, what Final Fantasy game would you make in HD? I only included games that were FFVII and on as they were more of the 3D polygon type, feel free to speak up if you think it should include games before that.

Either Mystic Quest or Legends III

I assume you are saying I should include games before FFVII?

None. Vita or 3DS ports could be cool though.

Whoops I didn't realize that would reset the poll, sorry guys. I added your option Bone.

Well maybe. Personally I do not care - I just think that if any effort were made to bump an existing FF game into HD, those are two I'd like to see make the jump. It'd be neat to see what the end products would look like.

Not voting until you add a FF6 option.

None of these games need an HD remake. No game ever needs an HD remake if it'spretty to start with!

My reasoning for this is I feel 16-bit era games don't need to be HD'd. I can still play a SNES or Genesis game and be perfectly content. Playing a PS2 game, especially when it is polygonal vs. sprites, is too distracting for me. Final Fantasy XII for example had the worst jaggies ever and the control scheme could be a little better by including an option to un-invert.
