Yeah that's right I think. There's the PS1 release and the GBA enhanced release. Oh, there's also the Wii release, though that's literally the SNES ROM with no changes (still called FF3 in fact).
I myself wonder where the love is for FF6. It's my personal favorite of the series. With the new 3DS at near Wii levels, and the new Sony system of unknown name being supposedly as powerful as a PS3, it's never been a better time to do a 3D remake of the game, and it wouldn't suffer from N64 level graphics like the 3D remakes of FF3 and FF4 did, it'd be capable of looking amazing. I also mentioned how that game in particular is ripe for spinoffs. There's a LOT of territory the original story never examined that they could dive right into, from a game set in the War of the Magi/Triad, to one set during the one year time skip during the game, to one set during the forming of the empire while Terra is growing up (they never do really explain what she did before Kefka put that slave crown on her or what most of her life was like until that point, just the barest explanation of a time just before she was born). In that one I think playing as Leo the whole game would be cool, maybe he's the one that has to stop some crazed rage Terra goes into and finally agrees to let Kefka enslave her, or something like that. It could even start out with Leo invading the southern cities for the good of the Empire. Heck there's plenty of room to explore the rebuilding of the world after the game when magic is gone. There's certainly far more room for backstory games in FF6 than there were in FF7 (Crisis Core is about the only one that's actually an interesting bit of backstory, the rest are unneeded additions of plot that aren't needed to fill in FF7's original story).

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
