Final Fantasy III: Fix - Esper Battle Menu is a patch for the Super Nintendo version of Final Fantasy III. This modification addresses a bug where the "MP" label was omitted from the magic menu when summoning an Esper, leading to confusion over the MP cost. The update ensures that players see "MP" alongside the cost, enhancing clarity in gameplay. The patch was developed by Lenophis and works on versions 1.0 and 1.1 of the US release.
This patch fixes a US version-created bug. The bug being that “MP” doesn’t show up when you press up in the magic menu to get to your equipped Esper. So you’d see the MP cost, but not “MP” to note that it’s actually MP you’re going to spend.

What this patch does:
Now when summoning an Esper, you'll see "MP" before the MP cost. You now know
*what* the cost is. *suspense* The fix was simple (then again so was the bug).
The game has a strange format it uses to draw menus in battle, and when the US
team was porting it to the US, they forgot about the "MP" in the Esper menu
when they were tweaking the font. 03 2C and 03 2F were changed to 03 8C 03 8F.
