Did a quick search and did not find anything on this deck. I have only just seen it and do not know when they were printed. I think they're kind of cool being one that enjoys video games very much. I really like the full custom deck and tuck box. Everything is done nicely in my opinion. They're being sold on fangamer.net for 15USD each. High price tag and it does not include shipping but I think it's well done. I'm not sure if it is being sold anywhere else.
Straight from the site's description for the deck:
"What have you to lose?
Just your life, and that was free!
Ante up, my friend
This FF6-themed card deck features a face card of every playable main character from this classic Super Nintendo RPG!
56 Poker sized cards
Printed on Bicycle grade paper with embossed finish
Custom tuck box
Gold foil security seal and cellophane wrapper with tear band
Meticulously designed by Lieutenant Art Commander Laura Wilson and produced by the magitechnicians at US Playing Card Company (USPCC), the same company responsible for the famous Bicycle card decks."
Under the "Fellow nerds also bought:" section was a deck called "Cards of Legend" as well that seem to based off of The Legend of Zelda games. I personally do not like this deck as much mainly due to the pips. I like the courts but the pips are too different for my taste. Here's the link to that deck as well:

Sorry for the double post but I wasn't allowed to post any more pictures so here's the rest of them. The other spot cards are done in the exact same fashion as the eights, nines, and tens. I just didn't want to do another post with just one final picture.

That Zelda deck, "Cards of Legend," has a topic of its own around here somewhere. The pips are modeled off of some of the icons in the game. So yeah, it was created for hardcore Zelda fans.
This deck is kind of nice - but bear in mind I'm not a Final Fantasy player. Not even one of the games.

Don this isnt the legend of zelda decks, the art is similar but not the same decks, zelda decks were produced at uspcc, are these as well ?

As stated above, it says it's printed by uspcc, he also gave the link for cards of legend, that's why Don was stating we have a separate topic about it
