I had a similar problem with Star Ocean 2, where I got through the long introduction only to find that I didn't have enough memory card space free. Its a great game though, and definitely worth starting again.

In Final Fantasy X-2, I found some references to FF6. I got a magic boosting item called "Soul of Thamasa" and a garment grid called "Bum Rush". To get the first one, I had to go through one of the strangest mini-games. It involved helping various monkeys find their soulmates. Easy, but time consuming, and totally optional. The Bum Rush thing came as part of normal gameplay.

I found the two uniforms to I needed to advance the story. One was at Mount Gagazet, very little dungeon exploration needed. The other one was found at the Desert Oasis and it was really easy to get there. Both involved extremely easy boss fights. This next mission should be the end of chapter 2.
