Yeah, that's the awkwardness for me. It happens in a few genres, where the underlying tech related to the mechanics is so accessible now that it doesn't make sense to have a AAA version but it's fairly trivial to make a smaller take. Bravely Default or Octopath Traveller are bigger and look more technically advanced than anything on the SNES, but they're weirdly off when you compare them to the feel of a big triple-AA FF.
