What if how there's like a Wii Sports and Wii Music, there was Wii RPG? Just one of the generic "Wii" games they actually spent a ton of time making? It'd use your Mii characters and such and it'd just be this entirely generic MMORPG game, but it was (relatively) cheap and the online would be free. Yet, there'd still be other features in it as well to appeal to people who'd be like "seriously? i don't play RPGs." Not sure what. But I had a dream about this and there were a lot of people playing SO THAT MEANS I KNOW IT WOULD WORK.

Wait, so you want an MMORPG in the Wii ____ series where you play online for free and your proof that it is possible is your dream? I don't think the Wii _____ series was made for that type of thing. A pokemon or Zelda MMO would be much better.

Actual thoughts, discussion? Not something that doesn't really mean anything? That just sort of seemed like a cheap reply. Granted my reply to yours was probably pretty cheap as well... sorry about that.

The dream thing was sort of just playing around... hope you didn't take that seriously? I agree a zelda and (ESPECIALLY) pokemon (/snap maybe?) MMO would be absolutely amazing. I also figure it wasn't made for the idea I had, but I thought it would be kind of cool regardless. I mean shoot... I'd buy it.

Right now does it matter? Wii ain't got any RPGs at the moment...it would have been a great idea when the Wii came out but now 3yrs on and Arc Rise and Monster Hunt are coming this year the idea is a little too late.

Ha, didn't consider how OLD the Wii actually was. Wii 2 opening release potential maybe? I actually just read about one RPG they're making called Fragile.. looks like a mix between Silent Hill, Luigi's Mansion, and anime. I'll pass and wait for something a little bit more enticing.

EDIT: which apparently was already released? still looks crappy though.

Still, the whole idea of the Wii ____ series was to be simple, or "casual". An MMORPG is on the exact opposite end of the spectrum, and I don't think Nintendo would waste time making something like what you propose. I mean, it would be like making a Dora the Explorer game where you play as Swiper and blast Dora full of holes with a minigun, even when she says not to three times. Sure some "hardcore" gamers might buy it, but if you're going to make a "hardcore" game it should be with a "hardcore" franchise, not a "casual" one. How many "casual" gamers do you think would invest time in an RPG, let alone an online one? It simply wouldn't work.

I'd like to say that this is not true.

  1. FFCC: Echoes of Time
  2. Rune Factory Frontier
  3. ToS: Dawn of the New World
  4. Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon

These are all out now, and these are only a few of the RPG's available for the Wii. If by "at the moment" you mean games that are already out, there goes that point right there.

Also, a bunch of other RPG's are scheduled for the Wii...

  1. Arc Rise Fantasia
  2. Dragon Quest X (I don't know if this has been confirmed for US, but I'm sure it'll end up here if not)
  3. Tales of Graces (Winter '09 release for Japan, not confirmed for US yet, but hopefully will end up here)
  4. FFCC: The Crystal Bearers (Might not even belong on the list, seeing as how it's TBA for Japan, but hey, not all of us are from the US :P)

I could keep going but...my posts are usually ignored anyway. And if you meant RPG's that have been newly released around this time, I'm sure you could find a bunch that aren't up there.

Ok...that's enough of that :P

To the TC, it could be a good idea, I wouldn't mind playing an RPG with Mii's :P I don't think it'll happen though.

Just so we know EU didn't get half those games. So for me it doesn't have any GOOD rpgs. Arc Rise would have been the first GOOD rpg and that ain't coming to EU either, tales of don't think thats coming to EUCrystal bears and Dragon Quest still aren't out. As I said before NO RPGs. As for VC are you being serious? I meant games for the Wii not remakes on VC as I said before Wii hasn't got any real note worthy GOOD rpgs for the Wii exclusively.

you just got to get out and buy games already stop worrying about this casual hardcore argument because quite frankly had them fanboys had never brought that complaint up , , i think wed have people that buy the games instead of siting on their pcs all day saying oh theres no this theres no that

As I said I live in EU it doesn't have any good RPGs here...unless you consider Baroque and Alien Syndrome good which I don't, I am not wasting money on **** games.

As for it havig more then GC that doesn't matter because GC actually had some decent titles, Tales of series, Skies of Arcadia, Paper Mario TTYD, Phantasy Star Online, Baton Kaitos...are you trying to tell me that Wii has an RPG that is better then even one of those titles? I can asure you it doesn't in EU.

As I said I wanted Arc Rise but that ain't coming here in EU and Tales of isn't in EU either, and the rest aren't out...here Wii has NO GOOD RPGS, if you don't believe me then do me a favour get the first flight here and take on look at the Wii shelves.

not really the most important thing in an rpg is the story and the characters and if it's Miis, there is no character, thus no story.

So is your idea Mii sims online with RPG elements? If so, if it was simplistic but fleshed out it sounds like something the casual market would go crazy over.
