A few month ago while I was reading a magazine (it says that it is a Nintendo official magazine) it said that square-enix was planing on realising a version of Final Fantasy XII on Wii.

It is true????

I hope so

I don't think that you can watch movies on the Wii as it's a games machine. FF: Crystal bearers seems to be shaping up well though if it has 20min long unskipable cutscencesandrandom turn based battles i won't be getting it!

In Venezuela we don't have a official magazine. The one I bought Was Club Nintendo from Mexico (and they say they are official)

It's a possibility, SE said that they will support the wii a lot. They reformed the ties with Nintendo, we already saw a lot of of SE games on the DS and GBA, more are coming. There's even a game involving Nintendo and DQ characters coming on the DS. As for the Wii, there's 3 games for now on the making and probably more.

I hope so, but I think that's unlikely because we already have Crystal Chronicles, the only reason I can think of why would Square do that is because FF is now a PS3 exclusive and as we know the PS3 is not selling very well which means that they will not sell as many copies of FF as they expect if they only stick to that system, so perhaps they want to produce them for the Wii too, but that is just a wild guess.

It would be nice if they re-released VII-XII on Wii (except XI). Those are remakes and ports that I wouldn't mind at all.

Actually, Final Fantasy XII doesn't have that many cutscenes, and none of them are very long. I can only speak for about three-quarters of the game, though, since I'm not through it all yet. The longer cutscenes are about five minutes long. And you can skip any of them.

Metal Gear Solid 2, on the other hand.......

I wouldn't call it half-assed. The team that made the original CC are putting alot of time in the Wii version addressing old problems.

XII, No.

XIV, maybe (SE's contract with Sony ends after XIII).

it also looks like a much better game.

i played the first one although itwas ok there was alot of things that could have easily improved alot of things. FF:CC was more multiplayer game but this one is more SP so im hoping they play the right cards. by the looks of the video of FF:CCCB i doubt it would have exploration in the open lands just like FF:CC which would be disappointing if it was true.

Don't get me started on MGS 2. I like cutscences but they are increasingly (Admit i haven't played FF12) act as padding just to add to the shear length of a game rather than helping to tell a story. They also tend to be right before a boss which leads you to watch them over and over again until you beat the boss. The summons are also VERY annoying casting Knights of the round in FF7 you might as well put the kettle on and do the Times crossword before it finishes.

I highly doubt it. If they plan to remake a Final Fantasy game on Wii, I doubt it will be one that debuted about a year and four months ago...

Don't play Dirge of Cerberus, then. It's almost more cutscene than it is gameplay. At least they're making cutscenes skip-able these days. And FFXII offers a good deal of gameplay for each cutscene you can watch.

If this game was coming to the Wii... We would have seen it on gonintendo.com, if you want the latest and greatest Nintendo news, hit up that site. RMC does an awesome job of keeping it up to date.

Square did a great job with speeding everything up in FFXII. The combat is no longer random or turn-based (well, it's still kind of turn-based, more like Grandia), and the FFXII-equivalent to limit breaks are interactive, although they have short summon-like cutscenes; you're kept busy throughout them. Summons themselves only take a second, and the summoned beast roams around fighting with you. The combat is a huge improvement, in my opinion.

You're probably thinking of the version that's coming out on DS.

That sounds better. It seems that Square are finally starting to listen to it's players. I might just have to go out and buy it, but will it work on my UK ps3?

It's possible because of the 360-PC connectivity. I belive that is itshadowrun? you can play on the 360 against pc opponents and the 360 does need a decent MMORPG :)
