WiiWare hit today in Japan and with it they got:

Dr. Mario, Star Soldier R, Pokemon Ranch, FFCC: My Life as a King, Angel's Solitaire, Lonpos, Okiraku Ping Pong, Mojipittan, Animal Panic screens here

New FF:CC in May for $15.00 I enjoyed the first one sign me up for this one and a new Dr. Mario.

Yeah I know it a side quest but if the game is good in the end who cares.

I thought you were going to talk about a "roman numeral" Final Fantasy, not some spin off. When was the last time Nintendo received a roman numeral Final Fantasy? SNES days.

I did not say it was better than XBLA many others have been. If you trust them.

"Nintendo has made it very clear to us that we'll not only be making a better royalty rate from WiiWare games, but we'll also have a better chance of selling games - the service won't be clogged up with the retro titles that have blighted the chances of many independent studios on Xbox Live Arcade." anonymous studio business development boss

"Frankly, we're not looking at making games for Xbox Live Arcade because the service is full of **** - another anonymous WiiWare dev

Nintendo is really trying to make two major points when it comes to WiiWare. New games won't have to compete with arcade remakes all that often, and devs can really make some good cash…quick. Click here to read the full article.

Maybe I should have said the first non port of a FF comes to the Wii. FFXI was on the PS2.

Interestingly enough, this seems to be the first pay to play Wii game as well. There are additional features that can be downloaded (DLC's advent at Nintendo). As the game is already the highest priced WiiWare game (at $15) the cost to have all content may be more in line with a DS game ($30).

I have no info on what the DLC is or the cost of it as it's only been out a short time and more info hasn't been circulated. I'll be sure to keep a close eye on this, though and keep the community informed as news comes my way.

Thanks for the good read Harlock. Nintendo really knows what they are doing when it comes to capturing the casual market. I like many of their business models.

ps: I'd be curious to know their business model for DLC if anyone knows or has a linky.

Some of the sidequest IMO are just as good. I love the first FFCC on the GC and it sold over a million copies for the GC.

No that is for download extras....After you already bought the game if you want to add on to it you can buy that. See the Wiipoint cost on the bottom of screen.

You still have to pay more for extra content :( I always hated that, and it sucks especially for a city sim.

Final Fantasy VI was rereleased on the GBA and FF III was released for the first time in America on the DS.

oo and FFXI for xbox 360 ....

humber_matus

lol, that's the most expensive game on the Xbox 360 there is. The reason? It's an MMORPG so you have to pay for XBL and the costs of the MMORPG itself. Simply ridiculous.

Final Fantasy III? It was totally overhauled and remade for the DS, had online and 3D graphics, and its predecessor was only released in Japan from what I remember so it was actually a totally new game for North America and Europe.
