Japanese gamers want Final Fantasy XIII to go multiplatform (proof inside)

http://www.n4g.com/News-34448.aspx

They want it on the Wii, I don't believe on the Xbox 360. Maybe some for the power of the 360? But it seems they want DQ9 to go multiplat as well and not be DS exlcusive. Maybe they want that on a console. 

They shouldn't beg for games for other consoles they didn't buy.ken_gamer

They don't buy the Wii?

It seems Square Canceled the Wii's FF:CC......I wonder if they replaced it with a port of FF13?HarlockJC

Square will probly throw them some sort of bone though.

Maybe they want Square to make something else FF for the Wii.  Like 14?

Too bad that won't happen. FF XIII could never be ported to Wii. And it would not be worth it to port to Xbox 360.Trading_Zoner

Square could alwasy can, FFXIII PS3, and start again on the Wii. ... Not likely but who knows.  

But it seems they want DQ9 to go multiplat as well and not be DS exlcusive. Maybe they want that on a console.

Gamers were asked which titles they want to see go multiplatform, after the DMC4 news a couple of weeks ago. Famitsu.com readers responded thus:

1. Monster Hunter 3 (PS3) 316 votes
2. Metal Gear Solid 4 (PS3) 314 votes
3. Final Fantasy XIII (PS3) 196 votes
4. Dragon Quest IX (DS) 47 votes
5. Biohazard 5 (PS3,360) 37 votes

The hardcore Japanese gamers are the ones who read Famitsu. Many of them have 360s. It's as simple as that.

FFXIII uses UE3 doesn't it?

can UE3 run on Wii? I don't think so.

And by the time they port it to a lesser engine, change the control scheme, and compress all the cutscenes for Wii so it fits on a DVD everyone who wanted the game will have bought it anyways.

FFX13 is using the 'White Engine' designed to take advantage of the PS3 hardware; so porting could be just as bad.

It uses White Engine which was designed for the PS3.

SE liscened UE3 for new games.

Nope it clearly says they want it for the 360 and Wii.

" and say that the title could be a much bigger hit if it sold on the Xbox 360"

FF13 on Wii? Is that a joke? If they wanted a FF on Wii they'd need a Wii exclusive version, not an extremely dumbed down FF13.DA_B0MB

Are you aware of the 360's sales rates in Japan?

[QUOTE="DementedDragon"]

[QUOTE="Nemme"]"and say that the title could be a much bigger hit if it sold on the Xbox 360"Nemme

Sure.

Huh, you're denying that? Out of common sense, I would have thought instead of having an audience of 2 million, an audience of 13 million would sell more.Nemme

Doesn't the series sell the most in Japan?  That's pretty much what i'm getting at.

As much as I HATE Wii I have no problem with it getting FF13.

But 360..... isnt Blue Dragon enough:?

So far the 360 isn't selling well in Japan, so it's contradictory how those gamers would want it multi-plat on the 360, when most of the gaming community there aren't buying the system.

yeah, don't realy see those 2-3 people owning a 360 over there crying to hard to get FF13.:Ptrasherhead

It's more the people with a Wii i would guess.  

If they want it to go multiplat for 360, then how about they buy more 360s in Japan. Just because a couple hundred people voted on an online poll, doesnt mean that the Japanese want FF13 to be multiplat.asdasd

Square said White Engine was multiplatform. JiveT
