I like the fact that all the classic FFs are being redone, especially FF3 on the DS. Apparently Square-Enix are going multi-platform next-gen so we'll see what happens.
I would rather see the FF games released on multiple consoles. It would give it more exposure and a broader audience.
Not certain games for certain consoles though... It is depressing to me to see a game I would like to play, like any FF, released on a console that I don't have. I have PS2 and Nintendo DS (as well as GBA SP, GBA and all the oldies) so I would rather see them multi consoled at release. I know of people who would play FF it was on the console they own.
I think it will help their sales to be on multiple consoles.
I think that Sony's consoles have an audience that best matches that of FF, considering Nintendo tends to target a younger demographic that may not understand or will be bored by the sometimes slow-paced, plot-driven RPGs. Microsoft, on the other hand seems to have a much more...western game library, for lack of a better term.
I think that sometimes nintendo tends to crap things up, meaning that when there is a release that will only be for a nintendo console, they will try to stick to the stupid idea of "Lets make it so that ANYONE can play it, from kids to guys 60+" and that will make sometimes the game extremely simple and somewhar boring, i know i will loooove to play FF when im 60 but lets face it T.T, besides, if they do that they will allways make games too kiddy and a lame story, FF: CC SUCKED; horribly, i passed the game because it was a FF but i never liked it, and i hated that they tried to use it to make you buy more and more Nintendo GBA´s, i hated them for trying to make a stupid story and trying to make a profit out of it...... oh yeah, that felt good, its finally out of my sistem hehe :lol:
I personally Like the Idea of multi consoles because as others have said already, it would give more exposure. If a company has more exposure chances are that their sales will go up and if their sales go up then they have more payroll to employee better game designers and hopefully the quality goes up. The one thing that I fear when I think of a Final Fantasy game on the Nintendo next gen systems is a genuine fear of having it turn out like Final Fantasy Crystal quest for the Gamecube. Now don't get me wrong here, the game was not bad mind you, but also it was nothing like I expected a FF title to be> I think square was forced into Nintendo's idea of a Final Fantasy game and unfortunately all of us fans suffered with Chibi/ sprite style funny lookinh characters with no true continuity in story line.
If Squareenix were to release on multiple systems I would only think it a good idea if the games were not altered to be more Nintendo'ish or etc, rather have them be true versions of the same game on different consoles.
Well that my feelings on the subject for what its worth.
I like what they did with both companies, but now that they made the deal with Nintendo, I feel ripped off not having FF12 and 13 for GC/REV. FF:CC was fun, but I want the good stuff.

Same here. Although CC online is quite a mouth watering idea.
Releasing games for multiple platforms at a time is not the best idea. It will lower the quality of the games. They could focus on making it for one platform, release it, then later on port it over and that would work probably though the ports would still be worse in most cases. Also I like what they're doing right now with releasing stuff on the GBA/DS that are like older titles. In fact they could probably go through most of the FFs like that and remake them to work with the DS/GBA/PSP. After that maybe they could even make a brand new numbered FF for one of those systems and that could be pretty good.

I agree thaat they will make more sales if FF is multiconsole game but I also agree with yuiness that if it is released on the Xbox then people would think it's bad because in most of Microsoft's games there is no thinking involved and all you have to do is run around and kill stuff. And if it were to be released on a Nintendo platform they would probably mes it up by making it too kiddy and simple.:?

Yeah, plus this time we won't need game boys!
Well I had a Gameboy anyway and the link cable came with the game so I was fine with that :P

No that probably wouldn't happen if it was made for Xbox or GC. The only people who would think that are the people who have come to conclusions based on their own biases....like the one you seem to have to anything that's not a Sony console.

Square wouldnt change the game. And even if it was Nintendo only they wouldn't make it "kiddy" just for them.
